Aksjologiczne podstawy prawnej ochrony życia dziecka poczętego
The Axiological Basis for the Legal Protection of Life of a Conceived Child

Summary/Abstract: In the issue of abortion throughout the history, philosophers have spoken about trying to answer the fundamental questions when life begins and what is the moment, it is necessary to protect it. Culture and law, and to a large extent religion and religious beliefs, as also subscribed philosophical systems have influenced throughout the history to protect the unborn life. Judaism on this issue follows the Old Testament and the Catholic Church speaks about the holiness of life derived from the Gospel. The Catholic Church has also in that scope the internal regulations – the 1983 Code of Canon Law – which in the subject and present scope includes all Catholics. In the issue of protection of the unborn life, other religions have also taken a stand, among others: Orthodox Church, Islam, Hinduism or Buddhism. Axiological assumptions have a dominant influence on the development of the system of conceived life protection, and therefore they are so important.
