Religion, Morality and Conscience – John Arthur

Review:

It was mentioned in this chapter that, God created the world so it means each one of us shoulddo to obey him, because we as his creation has an obligation or tasks to do what is the demand withregards to the word of God. In addition, no one should complain him as a creator of each one of us,because his words are supreme to assert on our faith. The religion has an impact to our morality which ismotivate us to do a certain tasks. It is the foundation of ethical perspective to God, to our love ones, andto our family. The morality is said to be social, it influences the relationship among the others by setting anstandards to interact with each other person.The author said that

“It is learned from interactions with others and governs interactions withothers in society. God might play a role in moral reflection and conscience. For the religious person,conscience would almost certainly include the imagined reaction of God along with the reactions of otherswho might be affected by the action.”

It means the morality of a person has affect with his religion and hisconscience prior to his actions.
