It uses an African culture as a practical case study to concretely illustrate the form and dynamics of the interconnections. 606 $aChristian ethics 606 $aSocial ethics$zNigeria$zNiger River Delta 606 $aTime$xMoral and ethical aspects$zNigeria$zNiger River Delta 606 $aKalabari (African people)$xSocial life and customs 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aChristian ethics. 615 0$aSocial ethics 615 0$aTime$xMoral and ethical aspects 615 0$aKalabari (African people)$xSocial life and customs. 676 $a241 700 $aWariboko$b Nimi$f1962-$0953671 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459525403321 996 $aEthics and time$92247259 997 $aUNINA
