Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Morality centers on the division between good and evil, between vice and virtue. In each civilization, codes exist which dictate a guiding morality. This book focuses on religious codes influencing a sense of right and wrong through ideas of vice and virtue, sin and redemption. Both vice and virtue are initially presented in general terms, as the idea applies on a universal level, before more specific discussion is presented. Our examination of virtue begins with the Classical idea of the Four Cardinal Virtues and, later, the Three Theological Virtues. It also examines the Seven Heavenly Virtues and the Noble Eightfold Path. The discussion of Vice includes the idea of sin in various world religions and a look at the Seven Deadly Sins.
