About This Book

This edition is once again a new, thoroughly revised version of Christian Ethics II. In some portions the subject matter has been reorganized more organically, and recent theological developments and documents of the magisterium have been integrated. New themes have been added, others further developed, such as deepening the concept and content of mission, as well as ecumenical participation. Also, questions in bioethics have been supplemented, such as the duty to preserve life, topics of prenatal medicine, reproductive and therapeutic cloning, genetic alteration, and euthanasia. Other issues raised concern the discrimination against women, civil marriage of homosexuals, compassion in prison care, the right of asylum, humanitarian interventions, the fostering of peace after conflicts, empowerment of the poor in development projects, and the treatment of animals. The author hopes that this new edition will be a contribution to the ongoing aggiornamento of moral theology and that it will continue to meet the expectations of its readers.

that

The

transfiguration 

of

isolated 

individuals 

into 

an

intimate 

union

has

a

bearing 

on

all

aspects 

of

the

couple’s 

life. 

“They 

will 

not,

for

example, 

make 

decisions 

in

terms 

of

what 

promotes 

his

career

alone, 

or

her

personal 

development 

alone, 

nor

even 

take 

turns 

at

these. 

His

career 

advancement 

will 

coincide 

with 

her

personal

development, 

for

he

will 

seek 

no

development 

that 

does

not

do

that. 

And

her

personal 

development 

will 

coincide 

with 

his

career 

advancement, 

because 

she

will 

seek 

no

personal 

development

that 

does 

not

do

that. 

For

each 

of

them, 

anything 

that 

seems

good 

for

one

but

is

detrimental 

to

the

other 

is

not

truly 

good 

for

the

one. 

Thus 

there 

is

only 

one

true 

good 

in

encounter 

-

not

his, 

or

hers, 

but

theirs.”
