Answers
1) Focus on Actions that are Proactive: What are those factor and conditions that be so that we can express the best relationships to one another. To continually improve our social environment so that we can eliminate those things that make it difficult for us to attain the goal of our lives. We should encourage situations and transforming initiatives that will promote the right behavior, providing the way out from the vicious cycles that continually tie people to the wrong habits and developing the right habits.
Reactive: rehabilitation, helping people who have already fallen into the wrong habits out of the situation
2) Emphasize the formation of Virtues: facilitates us in the task of actualizing our form as human beings. In fact we attain our purpose through the development of virtue. We possess a natural capacity toward virtue which according to Aristotle makes it possible for us to develop into virtuous persons. To actualize our potential we have to exercise our will so that we can act rightly which involves 'the performance of the right thing to the right person in the right way to the right extent and for the right purpose'( Grenz, 73 )But one right act does not produce a virtuous life. Instead the training and good habits we repeatedly do help us to be people of character. Virtue is always a mean between two extremes-the vice of deficiency and the vice of excess-both of which lead us to do wrong and contribute to unhappiness. Thus virtue consists of habitual moderation and that is the 'golden mean'. To cite an example courage is the mean between cowardice (which is the vice of deficiency) and foolhardiness(the corresponding vice of excess)
The ancient philosophers considered the following as key virtues
Wisdom/prudence- Plato defined it as the ability to exercise the power of reason, the ability to think clearly , to know the truth and goodness, Aristotle defined it as the
ability to choose the proper means to attain the right goals (Grenz, 72) The ability to put into practice the knowledge that we have.
Courage: Knowing what to do and what not to fear, anger in the face of vice
3) Promote the understanding and implementation of Human Rights:
Three basic Rights
Human Rights are based on God’s universal and inclusive love and in our obligation to all persons God cares about. Human Rights are the obligations to the basic freedoms of all persons. They are not mere possessive individualism but they are obligatory caring
