Who comes up with what's moral? Whoever has the most power? In a democracy the people...in a dictatorship, the dictator.

So, suppose you were living in the NAZI era and a Jewish person comes to you for refuge. What should you do, if by definition whatever society says at any given time is right?

Cordially

You do what you feel is right. If that defies society, then you must take the heat for your actions.

I would make sure to provide that the Jewish person had a way to get out of the country in Nazi-era Germany.

It only takes the actions of a few Schindlers to save many people..
