The Issues of Pluralism and Moral Autonomy - Challenges of the Religious and Philosophical Foundations of Ethics in Bioethics

Summary/Abstract: The existence of bioethics depends on dialogue and tolerance. The Dialogue, together with tolerance, has been imposed as an alternative to the exclusiveness and fundamentalism of various ideological inspirations. The basic peculiarity of the modern democratic societies is factual pluralism. If so-called pluralistic society could function, the dialogue and tolerance among partners in dialogue were required. The problems of pluralistic society has not overlooked the bioethics as a new discipline that grew up from matured consciousness about inadmissibility of status quo within relationships between natural, e.g. biological and medical sciences at one hand and the social sciences and humanities at the other. Status quo relationships between them has nurtured the idea that natural sciences are self-sufficient for resolving many ardent moral, value related, and social issues caused by themselves alone. It has also nurtured the idea that humanities, especially philosophy, are neither sufficient nor capable of resolving these problems.
