Zusammenfassung:Though Americans are a religious people, there are times when religion or religious views may confound the ethical process. This article claims that religious values may be expressed as either principles or narratives, then seeks to establish a case for dealing with religious claims as "principled narratives." Methods of evaluation are explored and then seven guidelines are offered for dealing with religion in ethics consultations.
