Establishing acceptable norms of behavior and consistent standards of conduct has been part of the human enterprise since the dawn of time. Without principles of ethics and the moral rules that affect individual behavior, humankind would plunge into a state of chaotic indifference, insecurity, and unending fear. But while few question the need for moral guidance, a growing number of people believe that the only ethic worth considering must rest on a biblical foundation. Is morality dependent upon God and "revealed truths" found in scripture? Must this claim be accepted without question lest we risk the torment of eternal damnation for questioning it? Without critical evaluation and careful scrutiny, there is little hope of distinguishing truth from unfounded belief. 241.5 Hof b0879754184 Perpustakaan STTB Bandung Theological Seminary 241.5 Hof b E07005080 Non Fiction 241.5 Hof b book_4.jpg 29371 2014-11-13 15:35:55 2024-11-20 10:56:16 machine generated
