Can bioethics be Christian? In the following commentary, we try to offer one perspective on how aspects of Christian theology can inform bioethics. We do not try to engage any one specific bioethical issue from a Christian perspective. Nor do we try to offer any new, groundbreaking way of thinking about bioethics from a theological perspective. Much more modestly, we seek to prime the pump by offering six loosely related points of entry into how to think about bioethics from a distinctively Christian perspective.

Last week, renowned Christian apologist Ravi Zacharias passed away. As many around the world remember and celebrate his legacy, we at the Center for Bioethics & Human Dignity would like to honor him by sharing with you a plenary address that he gave at our second ever annual conference in 1995. His wisdom and insight into the issues of human dignity are just as insightful today as they were 25 years ago! Learn more about our summer conferences at cbhd.org
