The complexity of social interactions stemming from strongly held beliefs and values among people groups are never more pronounced than in social dilemmas past and present. Theories of social psychology not only help us understand the dynamics involved in social dilemmas but also help us consider methods for analyzing them through a theoretical framework. Analyzing the social dilemma through a Christian lens, also allows you to consider those elements of the dilemma that might not be explained through theories, but instead might be viewed through a perspective of faith.
