VIEW PDF: BIOETHICS DEBATE IN UNITED EUROPE
The American influence on the development of bioethics in Europe cannot be ignored today. Since the early 80s of the last century, many European bioethicists and philosophers have visited universities in North America, accepting secular theories on bioethics without restraint, particularly those principlistic theories of Beauchamp and Childress. The most enthusiastic were the English and the Dutch, and so the continental Europeans are talking about an Anglo-American influence rather than exclusively American bioethics. Despite the import of ideas, Christian values still inspire European bioethics, a challenge through which people try to take the path that leads to God or, on the contrary, it takes them away from Him. Since philosophy and ethics came to be understood today as secular intellectual disciplines, the possibility of implementing Christian bioethics should be evaluated by exploring the differences, but also the values that separate and bring together the two projects.
Keywords : bioethics, philosophy, secular, Christianity, tolerance.
