The interest in assuring justice in the affairs between individuals, this view holds, is part and parcel to the interest of protecting God's morality through the court of law.
This strikes us as particularly important in the case of White v. Gibbs because it helps us to direct our focus to the matter at the heart of the case. The resolution that the presence of Mr. Hart's malice was a defining, intervening and superceding factor suggests that in fact the statutes designed to help us wade through the details of the present case are in some manner a reflection of this worldview. The use of proximate cause, while relevant to common law proceedings, diverts from a focus on the direct cause of the death of Mr. White, which was the set of actions and intentions which combined when Mr. Hart...
A Biblical Worldview encourages a legal argument that, without theological prejudice, instead works to bring a greater onus of responsibility on the individual with direct responsibility for Mr. White's death.
Conclusion:
The resolution to this case assessment is that the Biblical Worldview offers a way to ground existing legal standards in an ethically structured model for assessment. In the present case, the insertion of such a perspective would parallel the secular legal evaluation of the moot case.

Biblical Interpretation In the Bible, one of the most important sayings is Lex Talionis. This involves the concepts of life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand and foot for foot. These ideas are influencing human behavior and the way someone embraces different morale standards. To fully comprehend these teachings requires carefully examining the readings from Deuteronomy 17: 8-13 and 19:15-21. Together, these elements will illustrate the
Bible and criminal procedures It is gratifying to read the Bible's teachings on matters pertaining to the criminal justice system such as witnesses given the parallels they have with our own contemporary notions of fair and just actions. The Bible counsels that it is not enough to have a single witness to condemn an individual; in the United States, although there is not a formal requirement of a specific number
Such is a world from which the Old Testament emerged. With the onset of the New Testament and Christianity, polygamy was replaced by monogamy, mainly because the former was considered immoral from the Christian viewpoint. The church therefore dictated the format of marriages. Furthermore, men were generally favored in terms of laws governing marriage, property, adultery, and the like -- all the tenets of which were based upon religion rather
Opposition Argument: On the other hand, from the legal perspective, the argument that constitutional principles justify reconsidering the issue that polygamy (unlike human sacrifice) warrants First Amendment protections of the free exercise of religion. For one thing, the modern Supreme Court has recognized a right of privacy that emanates from the enumerated rights and privileges ever since the 1960s, that could play a role in a modern reanalysis of polygamy at law. Second,
Memo for the JudgeMargaret McCarthy makes a number of arguments against gender as a social construct (i.e., gender identity aka gender ideology) that are more than Biblical or religious arguments. In reality, McCarthy\\\'s arguments stem from natural science and philosophy, making them difficult to ignore. For example, McCarthy argues that gender identity is based on a false understanding of the nature of the human person and that it leads inevitably
