They can mix (sort of)(keeping in mind the syllabus isnt three separate parts but reather they are inter-related and flow on from each other) but in theory, a good answer will mix the areas anyway as the first bit
religious ethics and their effect on the everyday lives of believers:
– the way in which TWO traditions give ethical guidance to ONE of the following areas:
- violence, war and peace
- bioethics, eg cloning, genetic engineering, IVF, euthanasia
- the environment
- work ethics and business/professional ethics
- sexual ethics
- marriage and divorce.
really is example and the second bit
compare and contrast how TWO religious traditions use TWO of the following areas in forming their ethical teachings:
– sacred stories and texts
– beliefs
– individual and communal experiences
– authority within religious structures
– conscience and decision-making.

.: they go hand in hand from an answer POV but not really froma question POV (would be a long question but it has been done before!)
Its in the syllabus .: it can be asked......
ie if you read it, it goes
