Ethics: Ethics refer to rules provided by an external source, e.g., codes of conduct in workplaces or principles in religions. They're like guidelines on how best to care for your tree so it grows properly.
Doctrine: This term refers to a belief or set of beliefs held and taught by a church, political party, or other group. It's like the specific type of tree you're growing - each has its own unique set of care instructions (principles).
