Simple: Morals are a set of values based on RELIGIOUS principles. In this
country which is predominently Christian, that TRUTH is NOT acknowledged by
the (Christian) writers of dictionarys.
I am more concerned with "Ethics", which have more to do with TRUTH rather
then  someone's value systems.
Ie. It is ETHICALLY wrong to RAPE.
Ie. Many consider it MORALLY wrong to be homosexual.
See the difference?
