Christian Ethics, Volume 2

Moral Theology in Light of Vatican II; Volume II Special Moral Theology, Third Edition

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.

Also 
these 
matters 
can 
reveal 
that 
one 
does
not 
have 
regard 
for 
the 
other 
and 
that 
one 
does 
not

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 
career 
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 
every 
encounter 
-
not 
his, 
or 
hers, 
but 
theirs.”
