Watch the following clip on Maximillian KolbeWatch the following clip on Maximillian Kolbe

 

Upload the answers to the following questions in your blog.

1.) Define the term ‘moral integrity’

 
Moral integrity is a code of conduct, it is law, it is something someone follows.

 

2.) Describe why Maximillian Kolbe is regarded as a Christian of exemplary moral integrity.

He was a priest, and he insited that glory to heaven is  through the cross.

3.) Outline Maximillians ethical actions/principles that he demonstrated in Auschwitz.

He had stronge ethical action because sacrafising your self for another person is a big thing, and it also goes with catholic religion like Jesus Christ sacrafised himself for us.

 

4.) Evaluate whether you think he made the right decision and provide research to support your answer. i.e. Catholic teachings.

Well i think that for him it was probablly the right decision to make because no one forced him to pick up dead bodies and moved them, and no one also forced him to sacrafise himself. For the catholic church i will probably consider them thinking good about the priest because its like showing respect picking up dead bodies and move them and also for sacrafising him self the catholic church would think of that as a good thing because Jesus Crist sacrafised himsef for us.
