Catholicism & Ethics
After setting forth guidelines for arriving at sound ethical and moral decisions, including how to form a correct conscience, Catholicism and Ethics applies these guidelines to such vital health-care issues as artificial insemination, cloning, “test tube” babies, organ and tissue transplants, artificial nutrition and hydration, and the use of ordinary vs. extraordinary means.
The book also traces the history of the Church’s opposition to artificial contraception, shows why abortion and physician-assisted killing are terrible crimes, and presents sample health-care proxies governing end-of-life decisions.
