Moral: behaving in ways

[GoodTaste]

I don't quite understand the use of "ways" here. To me, "behaving in the ways" seems to be more accurate because they are particularly referred to what most people consider to be correct and honest, different to the types of behaviror that are considered by most people as wrong and wicked. This particularity requires the use of the article.

I am not sure. Which is more accurate? "Behaving in ways" or "behaving in the ways"?

=====================
Moral
behaving in ways considered by most people to be correct and honest:

Is TV responsible for weakening people's moral fibre (= ability to behave well and honestly and work hard)?

There is not a limited/finite set of such ways. That's why the definite article is not needed.

And indeed, not appropriate there.
