Apontamentos sobre ética cristã

Abstract

We start this essay, comparing traditional ethics in history, because it’s there that it processes the intellectualization and apprehension of the principles, rules, values and consequently its praxis. Though with unremovable mark left by Kant, the Christian ethics, in the subsequent times, was also influenced by the present personalistic movement, including the Magisterium Council. Thus, an immersion on the biblical Vetero and the New Testament seek to guide the reader towards the confrontation with the fundamental Christian ethos, with its ethics of the other and consequently responsible moral. The presentation of the moral value in dialogic prospect, wishes to show how much all Christian ethics is an ethic of the common good, of the edification of a person in the community, in search for his happiness. The study ends by offering a reflection about the ethics of Saint Thomas Aquinas.
