ethics

Is it immoral to bypass paywalls? This is a question that many of us internet users might have asked. I will provide a secular and theological explanation of why bypassing paywalls is immoral, though I do bypass paywalls myself, often to help others on CF get access to news from New York Times...

This is an issue I have been grappling with recently. The scripture provides support for both traditional, secular charities (helping the poor), and missionary work, but the latter just seems so much more effective from a rational point of view. While giving a man a fish can feed him for a day...

If ok then where is that written ? https://www.facebook.com/reel/229816739886406?mibextid=9drbnH

Christian Ethics and Morals Christian ethics and the Christian moral code are standards of right and wrong based on the Christian Bible and the teachings of Jesus Christ, the Old Testament prophets, and the New Testament apostles. The Christian moral code is derived from the teachings in the...

There are times I've found myself in some heated debate or controversy regarding what the Word of God does and does not say regarding some moral or ethical issue. This is what I found bizarre: There have been times when I would advance some assertion in logical terms ("A implies B / A /...

If there was a person who was going to blaspheme the Holy Ghost ONLY if you told exactly how to commit this sin, would you still tell them how to do it? What exactly would be your response to this question? What exactly would you do in this scenario?

As a former student of Philosophy at the university level, it has come to my attention that there are a few folks who don't realize that the field of Ethics is actually a branch of Philosophy. This is a fact, and one that is readily seen within the curricular structures of just about any major...

Personally, I'm inclined to think that it is dishonest, unless said use is disclosed. Also, Christianity affects humans, not robots, so I'm not sure taking ChatGPT's input on it is the most useful idea. This is not connected with any sort of moderation decision, I'm just interested to hear...

I'm the son of a deadbeat father myself, and I'll be 19 in March. I keep thinking back to certain clues and events throughout my life, and I don't know why, but I feel like I should die. I don't feel scared to die, however I do feel sad and excited whenever I think about it. My mother...

I'm new at mutual funds or whatever else might be possible, wanting to switch away from my current managed fund and possibly also the company that manages it. Are there ways to make sure certain companies aren't supported or would I have to opt out of a whole industry, and can I do that either...

I'm sorry that this is rather short. I believe that modern Christians are called to a higher level of moral accountability as a result of our relative privilege. Christianity is now a major social, political and religious force in the world. We thus have to wrestle morally with the consequences...

I'm a little confused by society's blithe dismissal of animal rights. Animals clearly have an inner life.Their experience encompasses a huge range of subtle emotions. There are some scientists who believe that higher animals are capable of spiritual experience. The animals we commonly eat...

A Vaccination Dilemma Alex lives in the Federated Commonwealth of Cornucopia – a western style democracy. Alex works for People Incorporated, a company whose employees work in close physical proximity to their customers. Think jobs like nurse, teacher, or carer for the aged or people with a...

For those of you who may not have heard, Ravi Zacharias was a well-known Christian Evangelical apologist who passed away several months ago. Over the years I've heard Ravi on the radio maybe a dozen times, defending the Christian faith and firmly refuting non-believers. And while he wasn't my...

Cont from this thread: Women Pastors? If warfare is forbidden, period, then I wonder how it is as Christians we reconcile ourselves to the Christian past. When I consider a war like the Reconquista, am I to consider it a bad thing that Spain is Christian today? Am I to consider it a bad...

Hello! Does Deuteronomy 22 teach that we should help stray animals find their owners, even when we don't know the owners? Here's the passage in question (emphasis mine): If you see your fellow Israelite’s ox or sheep straying, do not ignore it but be sure to take it back to its owner. 2 If they...

Curious as to what people think...

Yes, we shall. So, I'll start. I'll start with a simple affirmation: The Euthyphro Dilemma is firmly contingent upon, and originated from, and can only be applied to, an ethical analysis involving the concept of POLY-THEISM at its core. Note: For those who are new to the idea, the Euthryphro...

Hi, I make YouTube videos. I need editing software to edit them. Currently I cannot afford Premiere Pro, so I use Olive. I know Davinci Resolve is the best free software compared to the biggest flagmans, but the company name kinda make me to stay away from this program. Blagmagic design is the...

If you could help save the world and future generations, but had to take a 1 in 10,000, 5,000 or 1,000 risk of dying in the process, would you take that chance? In Australia, the current chances of a normal healthy individual who gets diagnosed with Covid-19 dying from it are less than 1 in...
