    Complete the Ethical Theories Comparison Chart:

    Over the course of thousands of years, various theories have been offered to explain the best way to determine what is ethical. The search for good or correct actions and thoughts has provided several strong approaches that are actively used today. While all of the various ethical theories seek to lead one to being ethical, they differ on how this should be accomplished. Each approach has its own strengths and weaknesses. It is important to understand these differences when analyzing ethical decisions from various perspectives.
