Shane lives in poverty, chooses to spend his days with the poor, and ultimately serves his enemies. Whether Shane preaches that the Church has become apathetic and over politicized, he serves a purpose to change the way Christians think about their religion. Shane cannot be called a sideline spectator either, he walks the talk, Claiborne preaches in the city of Chicago, Philadelphia, in conventions, and in Iraq, risking his life. He absolutely has moral authority and credibility in his ideas and opinions. While I do not completely agree with his whole book, Shane Claiborne speaks some truths on many ugly topics of our society.
Confucianism is highly advocated in China. In stead of saying Confucianism is a religion, I think Confucianism is concepts of state of moral idea. It provided spiritual and intellectual knowledge to the Chinese. It taught us to be self-ruled and to be virtuous person. The Chinese believed it is a virtue to follow Confucianism.
Explain Moral Relativism Moral Relativism argues the claim that there are no universally valid rules for all people at all times, thus implying there are no intrinsic rights and wrongs. This results in Morality being relative to the individual, to their culture and their age group. In contrary Moral Absolutism is the antonym to the theory that morality is relative. Kant for example was not a moral relativist; he held the belief that we had ‘categorical imperatives’ which were always right. He believed as Absolutists believe today , we should be able to apply moral rules to everyone without making allowances for different people or circumstance , thus suggesting laws should be ‘universalisable’ .
Secular worldviews often see human relationships as self-serving with an ultimate goal of getting ahead of the other person for bettering on oneself. In contrast, a biblical worldview of human relationships seeks to serve others first and place God above all else. Romans 2:8 speaks on the ultimate fate for the “selfishly ambitious” who do not obey the Word of God. Throughout the Bible, there are several instances of the ultimate human relationship found in Scripture. For example, Mark 12:31 states, “ …’You shall love your neighbor as yourself,’” as Jesus’ proclamation of human relationships with one another and God.
It is said that Lao-tzu wrote the Tao-te as a political guide for those who created the power structure and maintained the order of the land. In doing so he gave advice, rather than setting rules. He believed that the government should play a smaller role in the day to day lives of their citizens. Meaning, instead of watching over every person with an iron fist, allow them to show the natural good in themselves. Lao-tzu was a firm believer that playing a bigger role will ruin the balance of tranquility.
Confucius wanted the state or nation to work as a big family where everyone respects each other individually. This would mean that people could be less foreign to each other and be more confident and patriotic and treat the king as the highest father. Ceremony is just the nature of Chinese people. Its only supernatural elements lie in the idea of our ancestors watching over us and sending coded messages that can be perceived using various techniques, and us sending messages to them via sacrifices. Taoism is the one I like least.
Biblical Worldview according to Romans 1-8 The epistle of Romans has so many lessons how Christians should live. It creates the whole idea of how Christians should view the natural world, their identity as people, their relationships, culture and civilization among other things. Romans 1-8 is rich with Paul’s advice to the Christians in Rome that is not easy to understand without looking deep into it. These scriptures show the inability of good works to save mankind and the faithfulness of God in the salvation of mankind that justify, sanctify and glorify the wretched man through grace. The Natural World God created the natural world through His word.
Their effectiveness is due to how the examples display our, America’s, usage of Christian beliefs compared to what the actual beliefs say. His most effective example would have to be when he describes how America breaks one of the Ten Commandments themselves. It is true we are a nation that still permits the death penalty. However, the irony he displays sets it apart from the others because the sixth commandment itself says “Thou Shall Not Kill.” Not only that, his perspective of how we say we are Christian is also good for his argument. One negative aspect to his essay would have to be his bias toward conservatives and the rich.
The decision is usually made when the person asking for it, is suffering from an terminal or incurable disease. 2. Define the term Redemptive Suffering Redemptive Suffering is a notion in regards to Euthanasia. Adherents offer up their pain and their suffering in this world to the pain and suffering of the crucified Christ. Through the belief in redemptive suffering, the adherents do not require euthanasia and the notion of euthanasia becomes redundant for true believers in Christ.
