The purpose of this article is to put forth some relevant, but complex, issues which still exist in modern ethics. I shall present axiology and deontology shortly. After this, I take a not so well-known ethical theory called decisionism into consideration. In this context, we are interested in the one burning ethical problem or phenomenon “Why prohibit or deny the action of an organization or association?” At the end of the paper, some considerations are provided to solve some issues of misbehaving, or to solve actual social problems like discrimination, abuse of workforce, or racial or gender-based discrimination.
