Abstract

By exploring two recent theological ethicists, we see that ethics and theology became separated for several factors, including the Reformation's skepticism to Canon law, and the Enlightenment's desire for an ethics that were not bound by supposed religious convention. However, ethics always remain connected to underlying ideologies. Theology can help inform ethics by being rigorous, methodological, and remaining open to critique.
