Individual task 3Maximillian Kolbe CST/IST

Posted in catholic studies on April 9, 2008 by jammal001

1.) Define the term ‘moral integrity’

Moral Integrity is a compound ethical idea. Moral Integrity today is of human act and it is done through the persons actions and ways of thinking. It is permanent through a person throughout there life.

2.) Describe why Maximillian Kolbe is regarded as a Christian of exemplary moral integrity.

Maximillian Kolbe is regardes as a Christian of exemplary moral integrity because he did not let death stand in the way of what he believed in. He had comforted his fellows in prison and stood loyal. As he had stated “live by the cross” this links to moral integrity because he was not afraid of sacrificing himself got another soul because it is good for God.

3.) Outline Maximillians ethical actions/principles that he demonstrated in Auschwitz.

Maximillians ethical actions/principles that he had demonstrated in Auschwitz were brave and courageous. As he was trying to convert the prisoners into Chrsitians (as they were non believers) he was very brave and extremely valient.

4.) Evaluate whether you think he made the right decision and provide research to support your answer. i.e. Catholic teachings.

In my own opinion I think that Maximillian Kolbe had made the right decision for sacrificing himself because Jesus states that love is the ultimate law and the fact that Maximillian Kolbe demonstrated this it has caused him to make the right decision. Also Catholic Teachings provide a reason on why he had done this because they have influenced him.

Fall the shadows on the gullies, fades the purple from the mountain;

And the day that’s passing outwards down the stairways of the sky,

With its kindly deeds and sordid on its folded page recorded,

Waves a friendly hand across the range to bid the world “good-bye.”

Comes a buoyant peal of laughter from the tall, white, slender timber,

Rugged mirth that floods the bushland with the joy of brotherhood,

With the rustic notes sonorous of a happy laughing chorus,

When the kookaburras bless the world because the world is good.

 

Oh, ’tis good and clean and wholesome when we take the sheep-track

homewards,

And the kindly kitchen chimney flaps its homely bannerets;

All our twigs of effort, shooting golden promise for the fruiting,

Bring a night in peace enfolded that a useful day begets.

Hopeful dreams, their visions weaving, steel our hearts against to-

morrow,

And we dare the challenge, strengthened by today’s assaults withstood;

Beam the pregnant days before us; and another laughing chorus

Wraps the world in rippling revelry, because the world is good.

 

Loving eyes to watch our coming, loving arms to twine around us–

Tender tendrils, soft and silken, firmer far than iron stay–

All our little world upholding, gentle hearts and home enfolding,

And a cheery, friendly neighbour dropping in upon his way:

Mellow joy the soul refreshes with the scented breath of heaven,

With the whispered songs of other spheres, hereafter understood:

Angels keep their sure watch o’er us: and another laughing chorus

Flings a vesper blessing round the world, because the world is good.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fall the shadows on the valley, fades the purple from the mountain;

And the day that’s passing away down the stairways of the sky,

With its kindly deeds and sordid on its folded page recorded,

Waves a friendly hand across the range to say to the world “good-bye.”

Comes a weird voice of laughter from the tall, white, slender timber,

Rugged mirth that floods the bushes with the joy of brotherhood,

With the rustic notes sonorous of a happy laughing chorus,

When the kookaburras bless the world because the world is good.

 

Oh, it is a good and clean and wholesome when we take the dirt-track towards

home,

And the kindly kitchen chimney flaps its homely bannerets;

All our hard work of effort, promising for the fruiting,

Bring a night in peace enfolded that a useful day begets.

Hopeful dreams, their visions weaving, steel our hearts against to-

morrow,

And we dare the challenge, strengthened by today’s assaults withstood;

Beam the upcoming days before us; and another laughing chorus

Wraps the world in rippling revelry, because the world is good.

 

Loving eyes to watch our coming, loving arms to twine around us–

Tender tendrils, soft and silken, firmer far than iron stay–

All our little world upholding, gentle hearts and home enfolding,

And a cheery, friendly neighbour dropping in upon his way:

Mellow joy the soul refreshes with the scented breath of heaven,

With the whispered songs of other spheres, hereafter understood:

Angels keep their sure watch o’er us: and another laughing chorus

Flings a vesper blessing round the world, because the world is good.

1.) Watch the following clip:

Scenario 1: You are on a train coming home from a day at the beach. The train stops at a station and a group a youths get on the train and start bashing an elderly ethnic man. You notice people getting off the train.
Discuss what you would do in this situation.

In this situation I would firstly observe the problem in a quicker reaction and see what is going on. Then if I know I am able to I would either tell the young kids to stop, or if the matter is too dangerous security might have to step in.


Scenario 2:
You get a message from a girl that you are interested asking you to come over her house. When you get there a number of her friends are present and they say they are bored. One of them promotes the idea of going for a walk and causing a riot. At first you tell them “No way”. However, the girl you like states that “she will like you more if you go”.

Discuss what you would do in this situation.

Well if I didn’t want to go in that matter I would have to let that matter slide seeing that it could get too rough and very dangerous. I would not go this time.

A persons conscience is determination between good or evil. In the case of this clip donald duck has a good conscience and a bad one. In life a persons conscience has the power to control them e.g. If there was a bank with money and no one was guarding it, a robbers conscience would be to either take the money or not judging on what is good or bad.

2.) Watch the following clip:
