Morals...where did they come from...do all men have basic moral beliefs?
just curious. What do you think? Are there certain moral laws that all men share?
are there some countries that have different morals?
i mean in contrast to what the rest of us believe or what is right.
What is right? What is the origin of those shared morals? society over time? evolution? Christ?

Morality has its roots in The Ten Commandments.

Morality is absolutely from scripture. Most if not all laws harken back to the Bible although Democrats, atheists, agnostics, Marxists and other God haters will claim that this is not true. For the record, the U.S. Congress used to print Bibles and the United States was founded by Christians.
It's often been said that a democracy only works if the people living in it are Christians. We can see what happens when a good bit of the country are unbelievers.

Mores tend to change with time. Not always for the best, sometimes.

You can argue whether or not morals come from scripture, but as Hawk said, see what happens to morals in America when America becomes a Christian minority country. My parents were also a big influence on me. With a declining number of 2 parent homes, that can become an issue.

Romans 1:22 says: Professing themselves wise, they became as fools.
Romans 2:14-15 NLT
Even Gentiles, who do not have God’s written law, show that they know his law when they instinctively obey it, even without having heard it. [15] They demonstrate that God’s law is written in their hearts, for their own conscience and thoughts either accuse them or tell them they are doing right.

Yes, men have morals.
Morals existed well before the OT.

Human morality changes like the wind but, God's standard, God's word and His commandments do not.
