Internally, the morally injured person has a disordered values system that produces either contradictory or condemning attitudes towards self and others. Externally, the morally injured person concludes the world has no ordered values and is, therefore, without point or purpose. I would put the combined effect in Platonic terms: the injury produces a personal narrative in which truth, goodness, and beauty have lost their appeal. Without these things, human life turns into mere existence.
