WHOLENESS OF THE BODY IN THE CONTEXT OF THE DEBATES ON ORGAN TRANSPLANTATION. Authors: IULIU-MARIUS MORARIU. |
||||||
Abstract: In this article, the author analyses, based on the opinions of some contemporary theologians and specialists in bioethics like the Archbishop Irineu Pop from Alba-Iulia, Thristram Enghelhardt, Mircea Gelu Buta, Maria Aluaş, or others, the relationship between the wholeness of the body and the transplantation of organs. The main question debated is if the process of transplantation, which affects the integrity of the body is a sin, according to the Orthodox Church teaching. The problem is related with other similar processes like the amputation or the segmentation of relics, which also affect the body wholeness. The conclusion is that, in normal conditions, the process of transplantation is not a sin, in normal situations, but a fact of love for the other. Keywords: Irineu Pop-Bistriţeanu, Thristram Enghelhardt, eschatology, body and soul. |
