It would be more accurate to say that as man is a social being he is inevitably a political one. In the interests of accuracy too, we may take exception to the term, repeated to the point of tedium in these days, which describes man as a "social animal." In the first place it is a redundancy, since all the animals are social and, in the second, if man is no more than an animal politics may be applicable to him but ethics can never be; the beast of the field has yet to 'be found which takes an interest in moral laws."engWith permission of the license/copyright holderEthicsPoliticsKarl MarxChristiansPolitical ethicsEthics of lawRights based legal ethicsMethods of ethicsPhilosophical ethicsChristian denominationsBaptist, AdventistArticle
