Law vs Ethics


Law is the set of principles which a particular community recognises as regulating the actions of its members and which it may enforce by the imposition of the penalties. 
        Morals are the set guidelines which define what is morally right or wrong.

Law is enforced by the ruling body or the community, state or bodies of a country. 
        There is no specific authority to enforce the moral code of conduct.

Laws are created by the country or the state. Moral has no direct relationship to the constitution. 

Law creates the constitution of a country. Morals do not have a direct relation to the making of the constitution.

Law is influenced by morality. Moral emerges as the ideal set of rules.

There are direct punishments for those who violate the law. However, there is no direct punishment for those who violate morals.

There is a direct and strict punishment for those who do not follow laws. However, it is up to the person himself if he would like to follow morals or not.
