"Never let your sense of morals keep you from doing what’s
right."
Ah yes. The old slippery slope of seemingly contradictory language trick.
Now.
Most would believe the concept of morals to be synonymous with "right and wrong", and thus assume that morals will keep someone in line by encouraging actions that correspond with what is right. In other words, morals should keep you from doing what is WRONG...right? Wrong. Maybe.
Okay, enough sophomoric wordplay, to the point: one's idea of morally correct action may not necessarily correlate with righteous action. Take it as you will.
