    Natural Law Theory

    • 6442 Words
    • 26 Pages

    According to Jenkins, “The natural law theory begins with theories about the nature and purpose of the world and moves on to ask about the purpose of every action or object. The right thing to do is that which fulfils the natural purpose.” Natural law was developed by Thomas Aquinas, in which he believed that there is such a thing as natural moral law. Natural law ethics depends on the belief that the world was designed by a creator, God. It teaches everything God made has a purpose, including every aspect of human life, and everything should work towards the purpose assigned to it. If we fulfil this purpose we do ‘good’, for example it is good to preserve life (“Do not kill”). If we frustrate the purpose for which something has been created then it is morally ‘wrong’, to destroy life is against the will of good. In addition, human sexuality was designed for the reproduction of the species. Any action which helps towards the fulfilment of this purpose is good; anything which hinders this fulfilment is bad.…

    The issue is it’s unclear whether Jessie is making an offer to sell or an offer simply as a gift as they have been friends for 15 years. In order to determine if a valid offer has been made application of the objective test would be applied1. Would a reasonable person in these circumstances believe there to be a valid offer and what is the relative importance of the statement to each party2? Jessie’s statement made to Ian that he is happy to ‘let go’ of his car with the wording he has used has the potential to make the situation somewhat ambiguous, Jessie’s true intentions are unclear. The statement is not definite and lacks sufficient finality for the statement to be classed as an offer3. Although his wording is uncertain the courts will also look at what context the statement was made and because Ian did state he wanted to ‘buy’ a car for his daughter then the statement can be argued both ways. Jessie then invited Ian to his home to look at the car although there is still no conversation about the sale of the car. This offer doesn’t have terms that are clear and final and therefore the requirement of a valid offer has not been satisfied.…
