On Medical Ethics and Bioethics. Historical-theological reference
Luka Tomašević
; Katolički bogoslovni fakultet, Sveučilište u Splitu
Sažetak
The author points at the rising of pastoral medicine in Catholic
theology which has been caused by the development of medical
sciences. It has gradually changed to the bioethics that we know
today and that theology recognizes as well. In many Catholic moral
textbooks of the second half of XX century there is a treatise under
the title Medical Ethics, to which Pope Pius XII gave the strongest
impetus. In these treatises moral theologians apply religious
morality to medicine. In USA moral theologians and some writers
who were intrested in the relation between science and religion, both
the Protestants and Catholics, have considerably contributed to the
rebirth of medical ethics, especially in the period between 1965 and
1975. The final part brings a brief contribution to bioethical issues
in the John Paul II's encyclical Evangelium Vitae (1995).
