Christian Ethics - Science topic

The question needs to be more specific. There isn't only one kind of African ethics and there isn't only one kind of Wertern ethics. There is diversity within both.

You can consult Paul's episles, in which many family and society ethics are in details explained.

Charch library you can find your book

Esther Carol Dogbe re: [recent book on Christian Ethics]

The topic is vast, and your request is a bit open-ended. What aspect or focus are you looking for? Here are three recent publications I can suggest:

Earlier, but valuable:

Let us know your focus and I or other readers will likely be able to offer more specific help.

Do you think it's ethical, for example, to use someone else's photo on your ResearchGate ID and to ask people to write an essay for you?

There are some unpardonable acts ... such as murder, administrative and financial corruption ... and many others ... Sometimes forgiveness of some people's bad deeds leads to their persistence in corruption ... It is safe to punish an offense of etiquette ..

Of course not. The main object of aesthetics is art. A person aesthetically analyzes what affects all his feelings. But the criteria for accepting works of art from each period will be different, because the taste of today's youth is very different from the taste of young people 50 years ago.

No, Alex: your point of view is creditable.

The citing of the Genesis narrative as the domination mandate is no longer tenable, because what drives the world is economics not religion. To sustain the Genesis narrative presumptuously means that Christians are the only inhabitants of the world. After all the Platonic Dualism, which marked the beginning of Western Philosophy predates Christian teachings in the Bible. Both Socrates and Plato tended to deemphasize our natural environment as opposed to the world of ideas. Christian theology tends to thrive on dualism: heaven and earth, hell and heaven, saved and unsaved, but they have not used that theology to destroy or ravage the earth wantonly. If for anything, major industrialists in the world are not Christians and Christians are not known to be heavily involved in nuclear development. Christian environmental ethics should rather use a reconciliatory methodology to call for a global redemptive response to the environmental chaos plaguing us.

This is a type 4 question. In order to underpin objective moral values and duties, god would have to exist objectively. However, gods only exist as beliefs. Hence, there is nothing objective about the moral values that are based upon the supposed wishes of a god whose existence is in principle unprovable.

To state that anything is a proven reality is incomplete: a thing can be a proven reality to a particular person, but this does not give it objective existence. Pre-Newtonian gravity was a proven reality to everyone (objects tended to move towards their natural resting place), but this did not mean that this notion of gravity had an objective existence, or even that it was proven by the fact that objects fell downwards.

And now, back to research…

Dear prof. Dr. Dunaetz!

Thank you very much for these interesting and precise indications.

As a good number of missionary pastors has been trained at SMU or Candler, and the missionary [female] educators at Vanderbilt, some of the text may be of great help.

My basic thesis is that Social Gospel Influence in the South are more present than research is awared of.

The common good is accomplished when you respect the other as yourself. This is a very basic principle that is on the basis of both western and eastern ethics, whether you call it ethics or dharma. The thing is that we can find at the root of all moral discipline some mental purification technique. And this is the point where eastern cultures are more advanced and can teach western cultures specific techniques and practices that lead to a higher awareness in every daily action. With the space created by this discipline and awareness, we shed light on what is ethical or what is dharma, he duty of each one of us. Note that the path chosen, and its truth, is no better or worse than another, but it is just a choice, according to one's needs and the environment in which one lives.
