No consequences

Do you feel in life there should be no consequences for our actions
inactions, words, or all in all, how we live our lives, do we have a way
should we live?

I have never met anyone who believes that there are "...no consequences for our actions, inactions, [and] words". Nor have I ever met anyone who believes that there "should be no consequences for our actions, inactions, words". You have started an entire thread with the clumsiest of strawmen.

Do we have a way should we live? [sic]

The way we feel we "should" live our lives is shaped by communal, cultural and legal norms and by our each and every unique moral compass.

My short answer would be "Yes" fortunately, most of this has been pretty well thought out and written in our own national and local legal statues.

It has also been "has been pretty well thought out" by our families, and neighbours, and schools, and out places of worship [where applicable], our workplaces, our communities, our cultural and historical heritages... and then, as you say, by our legal and law enforcement systems.

I don’t feel like that and I don’t know anyone who does.

Unless you want this to be one of the shortest spirituality threads ever I suggest you drop the Galveston75 style of strawman and allow the other shoe to drop.

I'm asking, not telling; for you, there are the communal, cultural, and legal norms;
these are all outside influences. There is nothing innate about your notions of how
we should live; they can only come from the outside, and you have to buy into them?

Are you saying yes to no consequences?

Boy oh boy, it's as if you've never read or understood anything I have ever posted on this topic.

Our moral compassess are formed by a synthesis of "nature" and "nurture".

"Nurture" is what we experience and absorb from our human environment. It forms a unique narrative and an uncountable number of case studies.

"Nature" corresponds to what you probably mean when you use the word "innate". In combination with the "nature" element, it creates a unique personhood.

Deciding whether we "buy into" things "from outside" of us is what our moral compasses are for.

I can understand what you say and still do not agree with you. So you are saying
all morals are pressed in on us; otherwise, there isn't anything in us that can make
up our minds, each of us is nothing more than a product of our environment as
we are synthesized. Like dominos that fall, our morals are all deterministic nothing
more than where we are dropped off in time and location, is your view?

No. It's not about whether we agree or disagree. It's about this gimmick you use where you pretend you don't know what my stance is. What was that foolishness a few weeks back? Where you pretended you didn't know whether I was a theist or not. Now you are saying something foolish to me as if we have never discussed morality before.
