US Criminal Justice System and Deal with Justice Essay

US Criminal Justice System and Deal with Justice - Essay Example From the theological, and namely Christian point of view, the origin of this problem backs to the beginning of the times, when the first people, Adam and Eve, controlled by the God, did not manage to resist the temptation of the Devil and ate the prohibited fruit. They were deprived of the supreme goods and were exiled from the paradise and went on mortal life on the Earth. This problem is explained by the fact that the thing causing this punishment was not the God’s being angry with them because they violated His prohibition, but the matter of the human choice – they did their choice consciously, and this was their responsibility. No one made them do so, though the devil influenced them, but it is logical that the person decides upon a certain choice on his or her own. Many people, particularly nowadays, consider that the world is unfair and the God does not just things when, for example, a child is born with heavy disease or a human being is killed by another human. à ¢â‚¬Å"The teaching on original sin says that this situation is the result of human choices, not God’s desire.† (Smith, Burr, 2007, 92). It is also necessary to mention that it is not our blame that we are born into the world which has laws, habitual ways of acting and institutions which are not flawless and provide not complete education and development to us, but we are responsible for the change of this state of affairs. This is possible when we realize that the God has granted us with the power to firstly change ourselves, and then – the surrounding world. (Smith, Burr, 2007, 93).
