1. The development of moral theory is important because it helps us to understand and judge between wrong and right. It is an important part of the socialization process. It helps us to fight against the bad or wrong thoughts and help us to establish truth within society. Our action for any situation depends on how good the moral theories we possess. Moral theory varies from person to person, for example, what is right for us might not be right for others.
