What are the morals of your faith and how do you interpret them?

Morals in my religion...hmmm.
I think that the closest thing to morals are virtues. One of the most prominent is honor. As well as things like hospitality and courage and gentleness and others. But I think it all comes down to the individuals person's honor. |

What does your religion mean by honor? What are some of the other virtues?

Well, there are different sets of virtues accepted by different groups within my religion (Irish Celtic Reconstructionism). The ones that I have come to accept as my personal virtues are Truth, Honor, Justice, Loyalty, Courage, Community, Hospitality, Strength, and Gentleness.
I am not sure how to go about describing honor. I geuss it is when one can hold themselves with pride without letting an ego get in the way. Or when a person is willing to present themselves in humility before the Gods and community for the good of the community. When one's ego comes into play a person can becom spiteful and therefore dishonorable. Is this helping any? I am still not sure if that sums it up right. |
