Religion and Morality

Question 1

religion and culture

Answer 1

religion works as a representative of a culture (maybe even determines a culture as it shapes values and practices)

it is easier to determine someones religion rather than culture (no interconnecting cultures/religions)

Question 2

religious relativism

Answer 2

moral codes establish moral obligations for members of a religion that accept that code

Question 3

morality and divine punishment/reward

Answer 3

with religion there are sets of rules/practices (10 commandments) you must live and abide by. if you do you will be reward by a religious force (god–>heaven). if you don’t you will be punished (god–>hell). perhaps morality requires a reward/punishment
