Moral And Ethical Dilemmas - Paper

Moral And Ethical Dilemmas


One of the most difficult trials I face in my life are ethical and moral
dilemmas. They can be soul-wrenching and searching experiences that tax my
character and cause me to really "put my money where my mouth is." Sometimes
I'm quick to see ethical faults in others, but slow to see them in myself.
Other times I see all to clearly my mistakes and wonder why I don't measure up.
I believe one purpose for this life is to learn to act for ourselves. Learn to

and moral life is to be Like Him. There is no other way. The entire world will

than it won't be a big
deal. We can "nickel and dime" our moral piggy bank to death. It's the old,
"the ends justify the means." Criminals aren't made in a day.

Some of the most unethical and unjustifiable behavior I know of has come
out of our own political system. The very men who are responsible for making
our laws have little or no regard for them. They live under the philosophy that
"I'm an ethical person until I get caught..." and when their caught they exclaim
that their human. Ethics has nothing to do with other people. It's called
personal integrity and character and no one else will ever be my judge but me in
that regard. An ethical person has character and personal ...
