Morals

Ethics of care is one of the closest branches that I think represents my moral character. I care a lot about others and try very hard to put them before myself. This ethical view branches off from virtue ethics which has a great emphasis on moral character and how you treat other people. My religious backround considerably influences my moral views. I was rasied Christian by my parents and they always drilled into my head that you always have respect and care for everyone until they do something to lose it.

Examples of how my moral code is tied into religion are, killing and stealing. I would never kill or steal anything. Not just because it's a sin, but because I know it's wrong. The norm in society says that they are wrong so the majority of the people are going to gravitate away from them because they consider them bad. Therefore, a lot of impacts on my view of morals come from the way my parents raised me, which in turn relates to how their parents raised them and the amount of influence religion has in their lives.
