In the movie‚ there were several characters whom have made significant sacrifices for a greater good. The pastor

Ethics and morality Ethics is related to morality but it is not the same thing. ’Morality’ comes from the Latin word ’moralis’ which is more concerned with what we believe is good and evil (bad) or‚ right and wrong. Our morality is a set of ’pre-packaged answers’‚ if you like‚ to the question posed by ethics: “what ought I to do?”.
