Moral duty and love in the balmesian ethics

The development of civilization or real progress cannot exist without moral order. However, the moral order implies the existence of an absolute moral value that cannot be another one but the love God feels for himself. The balmesian ethics is an ethics of love: the moral correctness of human acts is defined as his loyalty to love and the fulfilment of the duty. It is a question of a deeply humanist kind of ethics that tries to avoid any shadow of selfishness or utilitarianism.
