The decision-making process is not easily described by most people, and few can claim to consider all the remifications of their choices. This book details how contemporary Christian ethics and personal moral decision-making are affected and shaped by complex social, environmental, personal, physical, mental, emotional and intellectual forces, as well as spiritual and religious beliefs and practices. The author focuses on understanding the relationship between one's ethical self, society's rules and the consequences of one's actions. She operates from a Judaeo-Christian perspective that also takes into account the ethical systems of the other major world religions. In developing a framework from which to engage in ethical decision-making, the author draws from philosophy, theology and psychology. She considers the roles of personality development, conscience formation, gender difference, religious values and social structures in ethical decision-making. The book probes the questions and dilemmas of good vs evil, personal vs communal values, authority vs conscience, religion vs society and civil vs moral law.
Examples and case studies drawn from the fields of social, medical, sexual, business, political, environmental and personal ethics are used throughout the book, and illuminate the process for personal decision-making that is presented. Each chapter concludes with discussion questions."About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
