Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. For the first question, Jane and Kamal's act of taking the law into their own hands by setting the house on fire is not in line with positive law or codified law standards which require following legal procedures. There is no indication of religious - based reasoning. Moral relativism holds that moral judgments are relative to the individual or culture, and they believe their actions were justified for their family's safety, which aligns with this view.
  2. For the second question, the online retailer promised a cashback of $100 but did not disclose that it would be in the form of shipping credit and could vary based on the phone's condition. This is an example of not fully disclosing information, which is a form of divulging information unethically.

Answer:

  1. c. Moral relativism
  2. a. Divulging information
