I wished I can see various people practice his words in society and cultural. There are some people who follow and read the Bible to start their life on a righteous path and there are some that I see our falling into sins and wrong choices in life. In the book of Matthew I think Jesus was teaching the people how to carefully listen to one another and follow the rules and they will forever parish in God’s Kingdom. The teaching goes along with cultural because families and churches can keep the traditions

of medication. It is easy to see why this is such a controversial topic, it is dealing with the voluntary death of an individual. Each side has very strong views and arguments on this matter. Many believe that terminal ill patients have the “right to die,” while others say that we as a society have a moral responsibility “to protect and to preserve all life” (Andre, and Velazquez, Assisted Suicide: A Right or a Wrong?). People who are for assisted suicide say that terminally ill patients who are living

Wollstonecraft’s use of Milton rebounds on her in such a way as to render the technique virtually useless. The focus of this argument is Wollstonecraft’s refiguring of Eve as a feminist rebel and of Satan as a revolutionary liberator (p. 452).

Romans. My world view is that, the sins committed by the Romans back in Paul’s day are still being committed today (Ecclesiastes 1:9) in today’s society. I think we can take a major lesson from Paul in that, Rome was a completely debased and that today, we live in a society of complete moral decay and decadence not unlike Rome. I believe that society as a whole WILL NOT change for the better and that each individual needs divine revelation and intervention and salvation to escape such a world. This

this week brought along with it lots of different emotions. Resnik’s (2015) question, “If morality were nothing more than commonsense, then why are there so many ethical disputes and issues in our society?” really made me think. There are so many moral and ethical disputes and issues happening in our society today. I can’t even tell you how many times I have come off the freeway and at the off ramp, over on the side is a man or woman holding a sign asking for help. Being a nurse, I tend to look
