Comments on: Year 11 Homework: Good and Evil http://mdbigg.me.uk/cvc/2010/11/year-11-homework-good-and-evil/ For all of Mr Bigg's RPE students at CVC Wed, 10 Apr 2013 10:27:26 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.9 By: Mr Bigg http://mdbigg.me.uk/cvc/2010/11/year-11-homework-good-and-evil/#comment-121 Mon, 29 Nov 2010 15:15:10 +0000 http://mdbigg.me.uk/cvc/?p=125#comment-121 Hi Hannah,

The statement is asking whether we need religion in order to make moral decisions…

On one side people may argue that without God to decide what is right or wrong we revert into moral relativism whereby anyone can believe what they like and so it’s impossible to call something “wrong” as what’s “wrong” is up to the individual. Therefore religion is essential for us so we can know what is really right and wrong from God.

On the other hand some may say this is ridiculous. People know right from wrong without needing God to tell them (you can watch a child – they know when they are being naughty without having Bible quotes read to them). As a society we can decide on right and wrong by considering the effect of our actions on others. For example, we have laws against littering because we consider it wrong to mess up the environment. However, a religious person might say that God created us with a natural sense of what is right and wrong, and therefore religion should play a part in our morality.

Finally, some would say that if religion tells us what is right and wrong, which religion should we listen to? Christianity? Islam? Buddhism?

Hope that gives you some ideas to play with…
