How does one determine right from wrong?

English

Make a quick, subconscious determination as to whether the consequence in question is important - how will it affect my life, the future, if it will affect the people in my life and how.

If it does not affect others or myself that much, I follow my instinct about whether the action is right or wrong. After that act on it and the results automatically modifies my mentality for future decisions. 

If the consequence in question is likely to be high then I think long and hard about the decision.  I do not make a snap decision in this case (as above), instead I take responsibility and make sure I get information in order to make the best choice. 

Then process the information to determine whether the action will affect the happiness and survival of the people involved, whether it will affect the dynamic of my family, whether it will be against a cultural norm, whether it breaks any laws, whether anyone will be physically harmed and so forth. 

After determining all these factors I weigh the costs against the benefits to those same categories (as well as to myself) and then I will take action. 

I deal with any consequences and then (as above) evaluate the results and let that information guide future decisions.

lord [1]

Answer:

Robert Frost's poem “The Road Not Taken” discusses the choices that a person may face in his life. The tone of the poem is serious and does not necessarily have an optimistic outlook. On the other hand, the poem is not about good and evil. It is about selecting the right approach to life through making decisions.

Novosadov [1.4K]
<span>The text:
81) This unbridled preaching of indulgences makes it difficult even for learned men to rescue the reverence which is due the pope from slander or from the shrewd questions of the laity.    82) Such as: ``Why does not the pope empty purgatory for the sake of holy love and the dire need of the souls that are there if he redeems an infinite number of souls for the sake of miserable money with which to build a church?'' The former reason would be most just; the latter is most trivial.

Martin Luther is making the point that grace is a much better reason for saving souls from purgatory than paying money, and that to say otherwise goes against the core tenants of Christianity, which views money as dangerous and corrupting, and grace and mercy as the virtues that everyone should strive for and that define Christ. </span><span />
