First Sentence
When we say of someone, "He has the morals of...(an animal) (a saint)," we engage in a commonsense way in the same activity that sociologists pursue in a professional way: (1) we construct from the description of a person's behavior the implicit normative principles that guide the person's actions; (2) we separate the descriptive parts of an inquiry (what are the principles guiding the behavior?) from the ultimate evaluative issue (should this person's morals be approved/condemned?).
