The question of whether there is a particular way of making moral decisions peculiar to Latin America has to be left aside for another paper. This article deals only very tangentially with this question, as tangentially as it deals with the biblical-theological foundations for making moral decisions.
Ethics is the science and art of moral decisions.
Hermeneutics is the science and art of interpretation. Making moral decisions is as much a matter of sound teaching as it is a matter of sound interpretation. Moral decisions are based either on general custom or on ethical teachings. Christian ethics is not based on general custom but on ethical teachings. Christian ethical teachings are based on the Bible as the written Word of God.
