I think I fall somewhere in Level III Postconvemtional. I don't necessarily feel that values rights and principles should transcend the law for that could lead to mass chaos. The law's purpose is to maintain a system. However, I believe that there are always exceptions to the rule. What is right for most may not be valid to certain individual situations. I think respect for other's beliefs is of the utmost impotance.
I also don't think that laws and values can always be considered together. I may speed down the road but don't believe that this is as severe as shoplifting. I tend to be very philosophical and reflect internally which sometimes leads to moral justification.
