The therapy-enhancement distinction occupies a central place in contemporary discussions of human genetics and has been the subject of much debate.1–7 At a recent conference on gene therapy policy, scientists predicted that within a few years researchers will develop techniques that can be used to enhance human traits.8 In thinking about the morality of genetic interventions, many writers have ...

BACKGROUND Moral philosophy and psychology have sought to define the nature of right and wrong, and good and evil.

Thus, moral philosophy and psychology became ever more vested to investigations of the anatomic structures an...

A well-known objection holds that the exercise of free will is compatible with determinism and thus, if God exists, God could have predetermined exactly how the will would be exercised; God could even have predet...

In this way, we will be led to pay special attention to the problem of violence, hate, and murder, sinc...

While the Holocaust is often placed at the genesis of bioethics, this relatively young field has not yet seriously explored the conduct of German scientists and physicians involved in the human subjects experiments of the Holocaust. We comfort ourselves with the beliefs that the individuals involved in the events of the Holocaust were mad or evil and unlike other scientists and physicians. Yet ...

In physics, we use the same laws to explain why airplanes fly, and why they crash. In psychiatry, we use one set of laws to explain sane behaviour, which we attribute to reasons (choices), and another set of laws to explain insane behaviour, which we attribute to causes (diseases). God, man's idea of moral perfection, judges human deeds without distinguishing between sane persons responsible fo...
