    Moral standards are in eye of the beholder. Different views on moral standards lead us to know whether something is right or wrong. There is the divine command theory, which states that God is the one who tells us what is right and what is wrong. God's commands (or commandments) are our source of religious morality. This theory only holds true if your are a beleive in a devine being. If you are an atheist this morality theory will not apply. Natural Law is another means of finding a moral standa...

    Natural law theory holds that the concept which we have come to understand as law is significantly reflective of the moral judgments and standards that are exercised in society. Law, according to natural law theory, is simply a mirrored reflection of a societal natural moral order. It is a philosophy that embraces overall goodness and equality, but, that rejects the mere mention of evil.

    ... even to what Aquinas called the wise. The wise formulate these elaborations only after intense consideration, reflection, and experience, and the common man learns these applications from the wise. I have certain questions of the theory at this point.

At best, this seems only formally true; that is, it is true t...

That is, how women and men define themselves in society, what means are available to them for attaining their ends- in short inter personal and social relations. Second, the founding principles that guide feminist ethics are rooted in the tradition of natural law, a...

To determine the significance of justice in any legal system it is necessary to identify the two central issues, which have to be taken into consideration when discussing law and justice.
