Subject Description: Global Ethics, Religions, and International Business:

This project does not have a proselytising vision, is not for convincing anyone that one religion is better or worse than another, but rather to identify the ethical values of each one. Of course, is aimed at both believers of any religion as atheists or agnostics.

“Today there is no living being who know enough to say for sure if a religion has been more important than all others.” Arnold Toynbee
