Bioethics : a reformed look at life and death choices
PERSONAL_AUTHOR_EPSB:
Resumen:
If there has ever been a time when Christians need to be prepared to deal with bioethical issues, the time is now. There are so many complex conflicts and controversies in this area that Christians need to be equipped to know how to think biblically, clearly, and rationally about; and the time to do that is not when issues arise. I am referring to things like abortion, euthanasia, stem cell research, assisted reproduction, and assisted suicide. At a time when the entire medical science realm has created many different choices about many different things, the average Christian is not equipped or prepared to think through their ramifications.
