Abstract

In this paper, the author seeks to contribute to a better understanding of the reality of the human personal moral interiority from the perspective of the Belgian moral theologian, Servais Pinckaers. It is understood in the context of the present-day dominant scientific view of the world in which the categories of technical and other positive sciences, through their dominance, bring into question the human form of existence and activity. Following introductory thoughts on the importance, value, and necessity of interdisciplinary collaboration, we are given an insight into the basic features of human life, which are twofold, depending on whether the same features are underpinned in the moral inferiority of the human person or merely stem from the technical and positive view of the world.
