List two ways a person can have a misinformed conscience and give an example for each. (4 mark) Two ways a person can have a misinformed conscience are: 1.​Rationalization ○​ Example: A person might convince themselves that cheating on a test is acceptable because "everyone else is doing it" or "they need to pass the test to keep their scholarship." This faulty reasoning leads them to believe that the dishonest action is justified, even though it is morally wrong. 2.​Misinformation from Society ○​ Example: A person might grow up in a community that normalizes discriminatory attitudes, leading them to believe that treating certain groups of people unfairly is acceptable. For example, if a person is raised in a culture where sexism or racism is prevalent, they might adopt those views without realizing that they are wrong, misinforming their conscience. 3.Trivialization  ​ Example: A person may downplay the seriousness of lying, thinking that "it's just a small lie, so it doesn't really matter." For instance, they might lie to their friend about being busy to avoid an event, believing that it's harmless. This trivializing attitude misinforms their conscience, making them overlook the potential harm caused by dishonesty. 4. The End Justifies the Immoral Means ​ Example: A person might steal money from a wealthy individual, believing that it's acceptable because they plan to donate the stolen money to charity. In this case, their conscience is misinformed by the idea that achieving a good outcome (helping the poor) justifies an immoral action (stealing), which leads them to make an unethical decision. Biblical Connections: 2. Read The Parable of the Sower in Matthew 13:1-9. Interpret the meaning of this passage using both exegesis and hermeneutics. Consider material learned in Unit 3 on the Gospel of Matthew, parables, the Kingdom of God, etc. (3 marks for each)​ The Parable of the Sower That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat beside the lake. Such great crowds gathered around him that he got into a boat and sat there, while the whole crowd stood on the beach. And he told them many things in parables, saying: ‘Listen! A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seeds fell on the path, and the birds came and ate them up. Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and they sprang up quickly, since they had no depth of soil. But when the sun rose, they were scorched; and since they had no root, they withered away. Other seeds fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them. Other seeds fell on good soil and brought forth grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. Let anyone with ears listen!’ Exegesis Hermeneutics 3. In your own words, summarize and describe the call story of Isaiah. 6 marks ​ In Isaiah 6, Isaiah has a vision of God on a throne surrounded by angels praising Him. Feeling unworthy because of his sin, Isaiah is purified by a seraph who touches his lips with a burning coal. God then asks, "Whom shall I send?" and Isaiah volunteers, saying, "Here I am; send me!" God gives him a message for the people, though many will not listen. This story shows Isaiah’s willingness to accept God's call despite the challenges ahead. 4. Name and describe any two Cardinal Virtues 2 marks ​ Cardinal Virtue Description Prudence This virtue involves the ability to make good decisions, especially in difficult situations. It’s about using reason to judge the best course of action and acting accordingly. Prudence helps us choose right over wrong and guides us in making wise choices. Justice Justice is about giving others what they are due, whether it's respect, fairness, or their rights. It’s the virtue that helps us act with fairness in our dealings with others, promoting equality and protecting the rights of individuals in society. 5. Describe, with a specific example, Apocalyptic Literature. 2 marks The Book of Revelation in the New Testament is a well-known example of apocalyptic literature. It describes a series of vivid visions given to the apostle John, including the ultimate battle between good and evil and the creation of a new heaven and earth.
