  • Care for the natural environment as a neglected area in theology [Elektronski vir] = Skrb za naravno okolje kot zapostavljena tema v teologiji
    Globokar, Roman
    Th e author states that care for the natural environment has been neglected for too long in the Catholic Church and in moral theology. In bioethics, the Church has focused almost exclusively on ... respecting the dignity of the human person from conception to natural death, while concern for the natural environment has been marginalised. Pope Francis’s encyclical Laudato si’ is a groundbreaking document that charts a path towards integral bioethics, which, in addition to concern for human dignity, also includes concern for other living beings and the entire natural environment. Although Francis criticises excessive anthropocentrism, he remains within a moderate anthropocentric framework. Th e author proposes Christian integral bioethics that combines respect for human life, other living beings, and the natural environment, based on relational anthropology, which emphasises interconnectedness and moral responsibility for all of creation.
