Religious Ethics
Religious ethics is a branch of ethics that examines moral principles, values, and behaviors derived from religious traditions, scriptures, and teachings. It involves the study of how religions shape ethical decision-making, virtues, and norms in personal and social contexts. This field often explores topics like justice, compassion, and human dignity through theological and philosophical lenses.
