This document discusses the ethical issues surrounding genetic engineering and using medical procedures to create life for the purpose of saving another. It notes that while such techniques can help dominate processes of reproduction, they also risk going beyond reasonable dominion over nature. The Vatican and bishops believe life is a gift from God that we have stewardship over but not absolute control. The discussion considers who gets to choose what is done with their body and argues we are stewards who make decisions with God in mind, not just for our own ends.

Kate was diagnosed with leukemia at age 2 and has relied on donations from her genetically engineered sister Anna for bone marrow and blood treatments. Now at 16, Kate no longer wants treatment and doctors say her only chance of survival is a kidney donation from Anna. However, donating her kidney would have long-term health risks for Anna. Unable to convince her parents to stop pushing her to donate, Anna sues for medical emancipation to make her own healthcare decisions.

Ethical Theory Paper
Elijah Kim
What is the meaning of being a human? What is the meaning of being a good person? What is good? And why do we have to be good? The word ethic carries many implications and foundations. In Christianity, God creates this universe, earth, and man/woman in "his" image. However, the Human is not God and made many ethical mistakes that ask God for forgiveness. "Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things." (Romans 2:1). No human being is innocent in front of God and not allow to judge each other. The ethical theory sets the foundation for a "right human being" and has numerous ways to break down.
Ethical theory "is the systematic effort to understand moral concepts and justify moral principles and theories" (Fieser 2017), which means the study of Right Action. This "Right Action" can be divide into three different divisions. Metaethics can be defined as a God's view. For many religious believers and religious cultures, the Metaethics can be easily found. However, people who do not believe in a higher power or bird view have a problem with divine command metaethics (Morriston 2009). In the Metaethics view, moral obligations are taught and fixed by religious belief. For the non-religious believers there Metaethics can be set by the Karma they heard of or the own belief system. Just because of believing in religious belief and Karma, Metaethics do not take the basics from realism or antirealism. Instead, it contains the focused theories (Davis 2021).
Moral Realism in Metaethics asses the meaning of the moral. Moral realism is the position of right and wrong in a variety of situations. Religions like Christianity made committed to moral realism for three different reasons. First, "constructivists tend to attribute moral facts to agents as their origin" (Jung 2015). In Christianity bible has the Ten Commandments in Exodus 20. These Ten Commandments are the fundamental moral value of Christian belief and set the standard. Commandments like "Thou shalt not commit adultery" and "Thou shalt not kill" are the well-known rule as a "basic human being." Like the last sentence, the bible has a clear example of do's and don'ts, right/ wrong.
The bible also advised what evil (bad) can affect the person "Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners" (1 Corinthians 15:33). Many religious people believe in God's purpose. An example of Christianity, Genesis advised, Human were made to glorify God and his creation. Adam and Eve were also created to manage God's creation. "So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God" (1 Corinthians 10:31). "And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose" (Romans 8:28). The explicit purpose gave men and women a clear vision of life and motivated them to stay in God's ...

Moral codes help create cohesive groups by increasing cooperation, trust and participation. Acting ethically also benefits reputation and can increase social influence.

This document discusses invitro fertilization (IVF) and pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD). It provides details on the IVF process and explains that PGD involves testing embryos for genetic diseases prior to implantation. PGD can detect over 100 diseases, reduces miscarriage rates, and allows parents to choose healthy embryos.

Interfaith dialogue examples and impact
Interfaith dialogue is important in multicultural, multi-faith Australia to foster cooperation and understanding between religious traditions. It establishes recognition of diversity and promotes communication to coexist peacefully. The document discusses two organizations, Interfaith Dialogue and the Jewish Christian Muslim Association of Australia, that focus on education, community building, and cooperation across faiths through principles like sincerity, service, and consultation. Both aim to develop deeper understanding and awareness of shared values between Abrahamic religions.
Interfaith dialogue dr gerard hall
Interfaith dialogue is essential for several reasons according to Catholic theologian Dr Gerard Hall SM. First, in our postmodern world no single religion can claim to have the sole truth. Second, in a democracy all religions have a right to practice freely. Third, in secular societies the role of organized religion is ambiguous. Fourth, as global citizens we must care for all humanity regardless of borders. Fifth, Australia is a multicultural society requiring dialogue between religious groups and indigenous peoples. Sixth, spirituality exists outside religion so faiths must engage all voices. Seventh, religions should promote justice for marginalized groups. Eighth, dialogue is fundamental to human dignity and community.
Account for the present religions
Australia currently has a diverse religious landscape influenced by five major factors: Christianity remains the dominant tradition, though attendance is declining; immigration has increased religious diversity as migrants brought new faiths like Buddhism, Islam, and Hinduism; some Australians switch denominations more commonly within Protestantism; new age religions focused on spirituality have risen in popularity; and secularism has grown as religion is separated from public life and some question traditional faiths.
Interfaith dialogue examples and impact
Christian ecumenical movements in Australia have had a significant impact by helping to reduce sectarianism between denominations that was inherited from the UK, such as between Anglicans and Catholics. The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity celebrated in May each year brings denominations together in prayer and worship around shared scripture, faith, and calling from God. The Uniting Church of Australia, formed from the union of Methodist, Presbyterian, and Congregationalist denominations, continues ecumenical work through theological dialogues with other churches to promote understanding and cooperation in their shared mission. The National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Ecumenical Commission advocates on indigenous rights and policy issues, representing the united Christian voice.
Ecumenism examples and impact
Christian ecumenical movements in Australia have had a significant impact by promoting unity among denominations and addressing social issues.

It provides biblical passages for each belief and explains how the passages illustrate the beliefs. For example, it explains that Genesis 1:1 supports the Trinity by referring to God creating through the Word. John 3:16 is listed under both salvation and revelation to show that salvation is only through God's revelation of his Son.
Mission powerpoint
This document provides information about Christian missionaries and spreading the gospel. It discusses how the Bible calls all Christians to preach the gospel to all people.

The goal is to spread the faith and form church communities where people can regularly practice and worship together. The document asks the reader to choose and research one of three missionaries: St. Patrick to Ireland in 432, St. Columba to Scotland in 563, or Sister Irene McCormack. It outlines the SQ3R reading strategy of survey, question, read, recite and review to guide studying the selected missionary.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Reverence for life my sister's keeper pp1
- 1. My Sister’s Keeper Genetic Engineering – Right to Life
- 2. Ethical Issue Is it right to create a life for the purpose of saving another? What is the difference between destroying life and prolonging death? Who gets to choose what you get to do with your body?
- 3. CONGREGATION FOR THE DOCTRINE OF THE FAITH http://www.vatican.va/roman_curia/congregations/cfaith/documents/rc_con_cfaith_doc_19870222_respect-for-human-life_en.html Various procedures now make it possible to intervene not only in order to assist but also to dominate the processes of procreation. These techniques can enable man to "take in hand his own destiny",
- 4. but they also expose him "to the temptation to go beyond the limits of a reasonable dominion over nature"
- 5. They might constitute progress in the service of man, but they also involve serious risks. Many people are therefore expressing an urgent appeal that in interventions on procreation the values and rights of the human person be safeguarded.
- 6. National Conference of Bishops "As Catholic leaders and moral teachers, we believe that life is the most basic gift of a loving God - a gift over which we have stewardship but not absolute dominion.” the Administrative Committee of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops
- 7. Who gets to choose? You are the “Steward” (protector, caretaker) of your body, this means that you make your decisions with the desires and direction of God in mind. You choose, but to choose for your own ends is not what God desires. Just as a parent wishes for a child to play with a toy in the manner it was designed. The parent does not want their child to destroy the toy, simply to use it properly, the journey they take to get there is often their own.
