Journal Entry 15

1.) There are always TWO sides to a conscience. What would Roger’s conscience be telling him?

His conscience was telling him that recognises that there is absolutely no danger to himself if he jumps in to save the boy; he could easily succeed if he tried. Nevertheless, he chooses to ignore the boy’s cries. The water is cold and he is afraid of catching a cold — he doesn’t want to get his good clothes wet either. this shows that he doesn’t value the boys life and doesn’t think he should inconvenience himself.

2.) Think of an example of Jesus’ teaching and explain how his teachings can help us to make an appropriate decision?

Thy shall not kill. this is similar as you can save a life but can’t bother. This can be compared to murder.
