Didnt believ that morality comes from god - believed that the while idea of rligion ad god was an illusion
Unlike Kant, Freud argued that thre was no universal moral law - believed that everyone makes their own moral desicions dependant on experiences and upbringing
Freud explained his theory about how we make moral desicions thrugh his belif that the mind can be divided into three parts:
1. the id - focused on our basic desires, hunger, agression
2. the ego - much more organised and realistic, rational and capable of ontrolling the id
3. the superego - more moral desicions are made, heavily inflienced by parents and upbrining
Oedipus Complex - part of us which wants to murder our fathers and sleep with our mothers. Story of the oedipus complec. Freud argued causes much unconsious guilt and therefore influences the moral decisions we make.
