Religion
and Ethical Standards
When I accepted Jesus Christ into my life all the
old unethical things that I did before are history. Sure I’m not a saint by any
means but it make me feel great to be active in the church and help other that
are in need. The Divine Command Theory is what a Christian adopts in their
spiritual walk with god. Yes god command us do what is right these principles
are taught as sermons in the bible to show us just like Moss, David, Adam we
are not perfect creatures. (Banks, 2013)
I try to practice sound judgment but sometimes it
hard when you have individuals that are cruel and evil in the world. Even on
television in the reality shows the conduct is reprehensible with the fighting,
and back biting that they do for example Mob Wives every other episodes someone
is getting into a fight. But I guess that is part of their culture my I need to
adopt one of the four Ethical Pluralism principles the “Principle of
Understanding”. (Lawrence, 1998)
As a law enforcement officer I stand up against evil
everyday by fighting crime, setting an example for others to follow, and
treating other the way I want to be treated. (Lawrence, 1998)
