SOCIAL BIOETHICS AND CHRISTIAN BIOETHICS

Summary/Abstract: In its first part, this article presents the main features of what is known as Social Bioethics, which is more a new perspective on the human being, rather than a science. But Social Bioethics considers the human being solely as a biological existence and understands the human person as an entity whose being is a consequence of the processing of human genes. That’s why it promotes much more an ethics characterized to be utilitarian and eudemonistic, relevant to o secularised Christianity. On the other hand, there is and needs to be promoted a Christian Bioethics, based on Christian anthropology. This Bioethics is not man-centred, but God-Man centred by Jesus Christ. It underlines the sanctity of the phenomenon of life and respect for each and every human person, having the image of God and receiving the divine gift of the creativity and of discerning the spirits. That’s why Christian Bioethics wants to give solutions to the human being who is destined to live in eternity and not to die.
