Book Faith and the Professions

Download or read book Faith and the Professions written by Thomas L. Shaffer and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1987-01-01 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas L. Shaffer argues that the morals of modern American lawyers and doctors have been corrupted by misguided professionalism and weak philosophy. He shows that professional codes exalt vocational principle over the traditional morals of character; but that, in practice, America's professionals and business people cultivate the ethics of character. The ethics of virtue have been neglected. The ethical argument in Faith and the Professions is in part an application to professional life of the position taken by Alasdair MacIntyre in After Virtue and in Revisions, and by Robert Bellah and his collaborators in Habits of the Heart. It is also, in part, an argument for the relevance of religious ethics.

Book A Soldier s Morality  Religion  and Our Professional Ethic

Download or read book A Soldier s Morality Religion and Our Professional Ethic written by U. S. Army U.S. Army War College Press and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-12-31 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The context for this book lies in the trust relationships that American military professions must retain with the society they serve if they are to remain professions. Of course, the alternative without such trust is for the Services simply to revert to the character and behavior of a government occupation, a big bureaucracy like the Internal Revenue Service or the Department of Agriculture. But to remain professions, one of the constant challenges the Stewards of the Professions must address is "how different and how separate" they are to be from the society they serve. Stated differently, as the values and mores of American society change, the ethics of its military professions must also evolve, but never so much that such evolution diminishes their military effectiveness-their raison-d'etre and the source of the trust relationship in the first place. As noted in the Foreword, as the values of American society have changed in the past, in most cases, e.g., racial integration, abortion, smoking as a health issue, the service of gays in the military, gender roles, etc., those changes have eventually had a strong influence on the culture of the military professions and, in particular, on the core of those cultures-the Services' Ethics.

Download or read book Professional Attitudes Toward Religion in the Public Schools of the United States Since 1900 written by sister Mary of Saint Michael Hubner and published by . This book was released on 1944 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The method chosen for obtaining a sampling of opinions of American twentith century educators is the utilization of spontaneously expressed sentiments as found in printed sources. In the following chapters these opinions are set forth in the form of theories concerning the relationships of religion, morality, and education, judgements on the status quo of the schools, and proposals for the restoration of the religious element in public education. A separate chapter, moreover, is devoted to the Catholic attitude."--Introduction, p.12

Book Too Conscientious  The Evolution of Ethical Challenges to Professionalism in the American Medical Marketplace

Download or read book Too Conscientious The Evolution of Ethical Challenges to Professionalism in the American Medical Marketplace written by Douglas E. Lemley and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-02-25 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the fundamental conflict of interest that physicians face in their daily work lives between the ethics of proper medical care versus the demands of standard business practices. However, unlike other books of this sort, this one places direct responsibility for this ethical dilemma upon the shoulders of physicians themselves. Taking ethical, legal, and business perspectives into account, the book traces the historically evolving response of American physicians to ever-increasing business interests within the profession. These financial concerns now have become intrinsic not only to the practice of medicine but seemingly also to the character of a growing segment of its practitioners. The book offers a plea for a change to a more socialized healthcare system as used in other advanced nations.

Book Practice What You Preach  Preach What You Practice

Download or read book Practice What You Preach Preach What You Practice written by Ronald Barnes and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2016-11-30 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to be religious? Religious ethical morality is not just a Sunday set aside, or a social protocol to conform to peer group expectations, nor should religion be used as a refuge of forgiveness for negative actions that do not change. It is important to respect the religion of others even if you do not agree with their teachings. However, without a basic knowledge of other religions, there is no basis for evaluation other than hear say and ignorance, which are not rational foundations for evaluation. Because the voice of women is diminished by men who devalue the contribution of women or men who attempt to dictate and define what should be the womans role and contribution. As a result, the world lacks the moral input of women, who are considered the moral exemplar for humanity, even by many male religious leaders.

Book Religious Morality in John Henry Newman

Download or read book Religious Morality in John Henry Newman written by Gerard Magill and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-09-24 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a systematic study of religious morality in the works of John Henry Newman (1801-1890). The work considers Newman’s widely discussed views on conscience and assent, analyzing his understanding of moral law and its relation to the development of moral doctrine in Church tradition. By integrating Newman’s religious epistemology and theological method, the author explores the hermeneutics of the imagination in moral decision-making: the imagination enables us to interpret complex reality in a practical manner, to relate belief with action. The analysis bridges philosophical and religious discourse, discussing three related categories. The first deals with Newman’s commitment to truth and holiness whereby he connects the realm of doctrine with the realm of salvation. The second category considers theoretical foundations of religious morality, and the third category explores Newman’s hermeneutics of the imagination to clarify his view of moral law, moral conscience, and Church tradition as practical foundations of religious morality. The author explains how secular reason in moral discernment can elicit religious significance. As a result, Church tradition should develop doctrine and foster holiness by being receptive to emerging experiences and cultural change. John Henry Newman was a highly controversial figure and his insightful writings continue to challenge and influence scholarship today. This book is a significant contribution to that scholarship and the analysis and literature comprise a detailed research guide for graduates and scholars.

Book Legal and Ethical Issues for Health Professionals

Book A Soldier s Morality  Religion  and Our Professional Ethic

Download or read book A Soldier s Morality Religion and Our Professional Ethic written by Don M. Snider and published by Department of the Army. This book was released on 2014 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors argue that an urgent leadership issue has arisen which is strongly, but not favorably, influencing our professional culture--a hostility toward religion and its correct expressions within the military. Setting aside the role of Chaplains as a separate issue, the focus here is on the role religion may play in the moral character of individual soldiers--especially leaders--and how their personal morality, faith-based or not, is to be integrated with their profession's ethic so they can serve in all cases "without reservation" as their oath requires.
