| Topic | Should 'it's against my ethics' hold as much weight as 'it's against my religion |
| AlisLandale 12/26/18 10:24:43 AM #2: | Religion typical has thousands of years of tradition and theology to explain or justify a modern followers beliefs. If there is an argument against that belief, you typically use that religions teachings and values as a base and argue interpretation. Ethics are a lot more fluid and a lot less grounded in values. though they can share the same end result, the motivation for feeling or believing that way tends to vary. (With vegans, there are people that feel strongly about it for animal rights, or for environmental reasons, or health reasons, or a combination of some or all of those) As a result, Its not necessarily right, but makes some sense why more skepticism would be given towards vague ethical concerns. And this is further compounded by the objectors response relative to the issue. However, lets not pretend religion is exempt from this. If religion and secular ethics collide (like with lgbt rights) the religion tends to get blasted by everyone not of that religion, at least in my observation. --- Since I'm not popular, I'll post on GameFAQs. https://i.imgtc.com/tRY2coU.gif ...
