Deontological ethics: "in philosophy, ethical theories that place special emphasis on the relationship between duty and the morality of human actions." (Encyclopidia Britannica, 2018).
Kantian ethics: Believed that it was our will to do the right thing. As the phrase goes "The Goodwill" meaning that anything we do can be used for good or bad, the goodwill must be good within itself.
Natural Law Theory: Descended from the theorist Thomas Aquinas, he believed that god pre-loaded us with all the tools we need to know whats right.
Divine command theory: the belief of what is moral and what is immoral is commanded by the divine whether it be some gods or one god. The foundation of this ethical theory is the god. If you need an answer to something, "ask God. This theory believes that morality itself comes from God."
What the similarities between the three schools of thought all have in common is the belief of what is right in our eyes. They all pertain to the specific decisions of what us as humans would consider right from wrong and good from bad. It also relates to one another because they all pertain to the morality of good/ bad or right/wrong.

the major similarities amomg three school of thought is based on morality and ethical values .These school are majorly emphasis and given best priority to good values and fouced tend to what is right for removing the darkness of bad ethics.
Every theory has own
principle. Deontological Ethics is taken action on the basis of morality .it also sometimes describe as duty or obligation or rule based ethics because rules binds duty.so deontological philosophy makes people more responsible on his own duty by maintaince rules and choose action based on ethical values.
Kanatian ethics remarkably viwed that good will must be good with it self.That means people good intention and good values alwys will be beneficial for others and developed good moral values .
natural law theory recognize deeply connection between law and human mortality .morality means what is good or what is bad . Thomas aquine believe also helps to find out exactly meaning of what is right because God preloaded us all tools .
Devine command Theory is a meta ethical theory which is proposed that an action status morally good is equavalent to wheather it is command by God.this theory is not given much reliable answer regarding which is right or wrong . Because practically we will not get answer from God.
All of these theories are very magnificent for getting clear idea regarding moral values .what is good or what is bad. What is right or what is wrong.
