For Ethics

1. Explain the ff

A. morality
wikipedia

-Morality is a call to recognize our dignity as men and women who

have received a free gift of new life in Christ. We must live
accordingly.

B. Ethics
Brittanica.com

- Ethics is the process of questioning, discovering and defending

our values, principles and purpose. It’s about finding out who we
are and staying true to that in the face of temptations,
challenges and uncertainty. It’s not always fun and it’s hardly
ever easy, but if we commit to it, we set ourselves up to make
decisions we can stand by, building a life that’s truly our own
and a future we want to be a part of.

C. Human acts
Encyclopedia.com

-An act that is performed only by a human being and thus is

proper to man. Not every act that a human being does is a
distinctively human act.

D. Acts of man
Encyclopedia.com

- Acts of man are instinctive, such as physiological in nature.

These are actions done under the circumstances of ignorance,
passion, fear, violence, and habits. Acts that are performed
by men without being master of them through his intellect and
will, therefore acts of man are involuntary actions.

2. Differentiate the ff.

A. morality from ethics.

Britannica.com

- Both morality and ethics loosely have to do with distinguishing

the difference between “good and bad” or “right and wrong.” Many
people think of morality as something that's personal and
normative, whereas ethics is the standards of “good and bad”
distinguished by a certain community or social setting.

B. Moral from amoral

Robert Lee Brewer

Moral can be an adjective or noun. For the noun version, a moral

is a lesson—usually tied to story or experience—that concerns
right or wrong behavior, or morals can also mean the standards of
behavior or beliefs that are acceptable for a group or society.
As an adjective, moral describes principles of right or wrong
behavior, and—in some cases—moral is used to define the good side
of the argument. As such, someone with a good moral compass would
be someone who knows the difference between right and wrong
behavior and chooses to do the right thing.

Amoral is an adjective used to describe someone or something that

is neither moral nor immoral. That is, something that's amoral
operates outside the confines of morality. A good example of this
would be to think of a robot that is programmed to demolish
buildings. This hypothetical robot has amoral coding that could
be useful for demolishing buildings for construction projects,
but it could also be horrifying if used in warfare. However, the
robot and its coding is not concerned with morality; the amoral
robot just does as it is told.
