Concerning such apparently bad things, such as rape and murder, who is to say they are bad? Like people, nothing is inherently bad. Bad is something decided upon by society and apparently rape and murder are bad. Ethics however are a human created concept, nothing is naturally wrong and nothing is naturally right. Yet people of all ideologies seem to think up arbitrary ethics to which the universe should adhere.

Just because morality and ethics are a man-made concept that does not mean they are unimportant. Morality and ethics are relative but when everyone around you adheres to them they have been given value.
They’re not just some rules on a piece of paper, they’re the structure that the entirety of the human race is supported by.

That being said, there's a way to think critically and it's by no means a generally natural aptitude.

Also this. I only have some high school philosophy classes under my belt but even then there was so much I learned from there that I wouldn’t have learned by myself.
