Ethics and Morality
Ethics is about what we should – and should not - do. It includes identification of basic principles, e.g. the prerogatives of property owners; and the application of those principles to actual situations, e.g. copyright protection of intellectual property over the Internet.

What is the importance of ethics in Christian counselling?
While there may be no explicit examples of how a Christian counselor should behave, the Bible does give Christians detailed instructions on how they should live. The Bible is all a Christian needs to know about how to live the Christian life. It is all-sufficient for living life.
How do you contrast scientific methods with ethics and belief systems?
Well, using Christianity as an example, Science contrasts with it in the sense that science methods require concrete evidence to prove something, whereas, religion or belief can just be made up and printed into a book and everyone believes it (if you know what I mean).
For example, the bible states that bats are birds simply because they have wings and can fly, but Science (Biology) proves that birds are in fact mammals and mammals differ from birds.
This is also why most firm Christians' hate Science :L
Should reason alone be used to determine which actions are morally right or morally wrong?
Yes. Reason should always be relied upon when deciding questions of right and wrong. It is one of the foundations of law.
- reason: to think through in a logical manner; the mental powers concerned with forming conclusions, judgments and inferences from facts
Answer:
Reason is always a key tool in deciding a course of action, it has the failing of requiring all the facts to arrive at the totally acceptable answer and these are not always available. Sometimes a person needs what is called in Zen Buddhism an "instantaneous appreciation of the whole" and sometimes it requires illogical behaviour. If this were not the case firemen and police could let buildings burn and hostages die as logic could indicate that their chances of surviving the event are too low.
Altruistic behaviour (taking one for the team) seems to be as important as reason and works at a deeper survival of the species level. It is even exhibited by herd animals where the young are protected by the adults.
Neither of these options requires addressing the morality or right/wrong of the situation.
Answer:
Reason alone? Absolutely not. Aristotle relied upon reason when he wrote that killing one's newborn babies is perfectly acceptable and a necessary practice.
If a implies b does that mean not b implies not a?
YES! If a->b is true then ~b->~a is also true. Changing a->b to ~b->~a is called taking the contrapositive where "->" means implication and "~" means "not."
For example, if A = Chevrolet Corvette and B = Automobile then A->B and B doesn't necessarily imply A. But if it's not an automobile, it's certainly not a corvette. So ~B->~A follows from A->B.
*The other answer misunderstood the question and reported correctly that a->b doesn't not mean that b->a; however, the question asked was about the statement ~b->~a, which is true given a->b.
NO
A=Chevrolet Corvett
B=Automobile
A = B
But
B<>A
All As are Bs
BUT
Not All Bs are As*
