Identify the basic tenets/beliefs of each system. Support your analysis with scholarly
sources. Then, select the one system with which you most identify and defend your
choice. Finally, you will evaluate your chosen ethical system in light of the Christian
worldview.
INSTRUCTIONS
Write a 5 7 page reflection paper on the following six ethical reasoning method bases
for making ethical judgments discussed in the course textbook:
egoism
enlightened egoism
utilitarianism
deontology
justice
virtue ethics
You must include the Bible in your paper as a resource for discussing the alignment of
the system you choose with the Christian worldview. While using quotes from the Old
Testament are permitted, you must include quotes or examples from the teachings of
Jesus and the Apostles found in the New Testament for the majority of your analysis of
the Christian worldview.
The reflection paper must be written in current APA format and must contain at least
five scholarly sources in addition to the textbook (a total of at least six scholarly
sources). Also, the Bible will be included in the References section, but it will not count
as one of your six required scholarly sources.
Note that the title page and references page do not count toward meeting the page-count
minimum for the assignment.
