Now that you have learned about competing ethical theories, write a thread that compares and contrasts a Christian ethical theory with a competing ethical theory. Since we have already looked at ethical relativism in Discussion: Relativism vs Absolutism, you may choose from any metaethical theory covered inMoral Choices or Talking About Ethicsexcept ethical relativism. That means you can choose from Virtue Ethics, Natural Law, Ethical Egoism, Utilitarianism, and Duty Ethics in contrast to a Christian ethical theory.

1. How does each system define "the good?" How does each claim to know "the good?"
2. What, if anything, do these systems have in common? What, if anything, are their key differences?
3. Which theory do you think is the stronger ethical theory? Defend your answer. This final question should take up the majority of your thread.

Be sure to carefully define your terms, articulate the strengths and weaknesses of each theory, and defend your position. You are expected to support your position with rational arguments, fitting examples, and expert sources. Any quotes or information used from sources other than yourself must be cited using footnotes in currentTurabianformat and will not count towards the total word count.
