- Theological Perspectives in Bioethics

Catalog description

This course examines the most influential narratives, including Catholic Christian views of God and of human beings, shaping the meaning and experience of our health, our lives, and our deaths.

Is there a right to die? How should communities anticipate and care for the needs of the most vulnerable?
