My community, my conscience and guide : communial influence on individual choices in Africa, with special reference to Zulu ProverbsManci, Thembayona Paulus Emmanuel 11 1900 (has links)
Life is the common denominator for all beings. Unless individuals
are taught to be careful about how they deal with it,
great harm could be caused to the whole ontological order.
Life therefore is a public property for which precepts had to
be established to guard against any misuse. This guarantees
that life and its processes are used to everyone's advantage.
The Community has put itself in position as the monitor of
the processes of life. To it belongs the right to distribute,
regulate and even withdraw life as different situations would
warrant. The community is both the promulgator and the judge
over vital matters.
The individuals are taught to be conscientious in dealing
with life. In making choices the individuals have to be
conscious of the historical experiences of the community and
be disposed to being influenced by it. Hence the Community
becomes the Conscience and Guide. / Religious Studies and Arabic / M.Th. (Religious Studies)
