A Completely Ethical Mod
by Loyal0713
A Completely Ethical Mod is a Fabric server mod that blocks many kinds of damage players deal to mobs, and it runs only on the server.
What it does
The mod targets ways a player can harm mobs, directly or indirectly. It prevents fire damage from lava, damage from lightning that a player has influenced, and suffocation in water. Fall damage from significant drops, cramming when too many entities are pushed into one space, and contact with cacti, sweet berry bushes and stalagmites are also prevented. Player-triggered explosions, fireworks and freezing effects are covered as well.
The mod also restricts some actions that the author considered unethical. Manually spawning Snow Golems in the Nether is disabled, since it causes immediate death. The ender dragon can still be defeated, but only within strict rules that the author describes as morally gray. A detailed list of the prevented damage types is included in the author text.
Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.21.2 – 1.21.5, and the latest build is 1.21.5v1.1.3 for 1.21.5. The mod is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and its source code and issue tracker are public.

What the author says
Finally, a way to play Minecraft that your therapist might approve of. Maybe. In an effort to prevent any sort of ethical dilemmas, I've removed most ways a player can directly or indirectly damage mobs. There are still ways to beat the game, albeit morally gray. In order to finish the game, the ethically strict…
