John Rawls, an American philosopher, describes justice as the ability of people in the society to hold equal fundamental rights and cooperate within the economic system. Rawls points out that justice is the initial virtue that guides social institutions based on truth (Clements & Formosa, 2021). Rawls believes that a just society has characteristics based on rules agreed upon by every community member. His foundation of justice relates to my understanding that one’s life should not be sacrificed to bring happiness to the majority. For instance, it is morally wrong to suppress people’s right to speech and expression for economic growth.

Romero, the firm’s managing partner, is a pleasant individual who values his relationship with subordinates and even encourages them to feel free to approach him with any concerns. One day, Nick overheard a telephone conversation between Chris and the client, in which Chris informed the client that he had covered up the fraud at the client’s company as requested during a prior interaction. This information was troubling, considering Chris had admitted to illegal and unethical activity. Nick decided to share what he learned with Jenna to see if she could advise him on what to do. Unfortunately, Jenna told Nick to do nothing and pretend he had never heard the conversation. Nick could not do this and, thus, decided to approach Chris and get to the bottom of what he overheard. However, before he could get into Chris’s office, Michael, who overheard Nick’s conversation with Jenna, stepped in and requested Nick to exercise some restraint, considering bringing such a serious matter without evidence might backfire on him, resulting in Nick losing his internship position. After calming down and evaluating what Michael said, Nick decided to take time and investigate the matter properly before using the appropriate channels to report his findings.

I acknowledge that this is a sensitive matter which I may not stand a chance to argue against. As much as pro-life advocates emphasize protecting the fetus, the mental health status of the mother matters (Rae, 2018). The information presented in the text has challenged me, posing to ask why a law would force a pregnant mother to keep a pregnancy resulting from rape and end up mistreating the baby throughout its development when they remember the ordeal? I believe pregnancy should be wanted, and every baby deserves to be valued, loved, and nurtured before and after birth. As the Bible states in John 1:14, the Church and the believers should embrace grace and truth to see the glory of God, meaning that they must live in an atmosphere of true love and grace-filled. While not condoning abortion procured with unsound reasons, I believe that the ethics of the Sabbath encourages Christians to love and support everyone, including pregnant women who decide to abort, on rational grounds. Hence, an ideal approach that would ensure that believers keep the ethics of the Sabbath would focus on encouraging them to visit such
