Description
Summary:This essay reflects on 25 years since Christian Bioethics began publication and, in somewhat autobiographical fashion, engages two core concerns. First, although "non-ecumenism" may often appear a pretext for contention and division, I suggest that a respectful non-ecumenism may provide the opportunity for dialogue and the occasion for employing certain tools from religious studies. Second, although many are skeptical about the possibilities of identifying a "common morality," a defense of that notion provides a plausible explanation for the development of limited consensus on some issues in bioethics.
