title: Must theology remain silent in bioethics?
abstract: Bioethics tends to lack both breadth and depth; a theological perspective can provide the necessary lack. The essential role of a theologian has always been to direct attention to dimensions of human situations that may have escaped our notice, to account for the interpretive frameworks people bring to their experiences of health, medicine, suffering, and death within a vision of human nature and destiny.
