Human Fraternity, Human Sisterhood and Social Friendship from a Global Ethic Perspective
“Global Ethic” does not mean that people have to change their religion. They should follow their own path of religious belongings and world-view convictions but they should unite in recognizing common human principles. It is easy to understand that here we do have the idea of a universal reach which is accessible to all world-views and religions. As a matter of fact, 6000 delegates from a huge variety of religions during the Plenary Assembly of the Parliament of World’s Religions in Chicago in 1993 adopted a “Global Ethics Declaration” which contains two principles and five basic ethical values.
