The Christian Moral Imperative: Cultural Opportunities

Abstract

Relative to culture, religion has historically served as the normative boundary. This ensured the existence, reproduction and development of culture, and therefore of society. That is why analyzing the cultural potential of a religious moral imperative becomes an urgent task for a modern culture seeking a way out of the spiritual and moral crisis. The article thoroughly analyzes the basics, argumentation, possibilities of influencing the personality and society of the Christian religious moral imperative, compares comparatively with similar possibilities of influencing the culture of secular ethics.
