Fundamental ethical values and principles of adoption

Šimun Bilokapić ; Katolički bogoslovni fakultet u Splitu

Sažetak

The paper is divided into three parts. The first part broadly presents the issue of adopting, its purpose, meaning and value substance. Then, the second part is basically talking about the position and place of this topic in the teaching of the Church Magisterium and about those moral values and principles that the Church especially insists on and that need to be respected at the legislative level as well. In the third part, in the light of the stated moral values, specific cases and questions related to the practice of adoption are being analyzed. First of all, it is about the possibility, acceptability and moral justification of adopting the child by a single parent and by homosexual couples as well as about the still unfinished discussion about adopting human embryos. Finally, in the last part of the paper, a clear attitude is taken about the important issue of communicating the truth to the adopted child.
