  • Title: [Human dignity and Christian ethics].
    Author: Reiter J.
    Journal: Diskussionsforum Med Ethik; 1993 Feb; (1-2):I-III. PubMed ID: 8465527.
    Abstract:
    The jurisdiction of most states presumes that human dignity is unconditional. Yet a last reason for this dignity cannot be furnished by a state jurisdiction. Christian ethics for instance argue on a line beyond strictly rational interpretation: human dignity roots in man's affirmation by God. Beyond a simply negative definition it is essential today to define the conditions of human dignity in a positive way.
