Tristram Engelhardt, Jr.'s pursuit for the decisive ground of the meaning of human existence and knowledge of appropriate moral choice. Engelhardt has been the most influential, cogent, but critical voice within bioethics of the past several decades. The essays in this volume compass epistemological, methodological and topical contributions to bioethics, political theory, and Christian theology. Each explores Engelhardt's diagnosis of the contemporary social and cultural crisis, seeking to make sense of the decidedly post-Christian and often openly anti-Christian ethics that dominates public morality and politic policy. Each author investigates Engelhardt's personal and tireless enquiry to secure ultimate moral foundations as well as to recognize the full implications of the results of his investigations: that Christian bioethics does not originate in human reason but in the command of God. 606 $aBioethics 606 $aBioethics$xReligious aspects$xChristianity 615 0$aBioethics. 615 0$aBioethics$xReligious aspects$xChristianity. 676 $a241/.64957 701 $aIltis$b Ana Smith$01863682 701 $aCherry$b Mark J$0884868 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910957790403321 996 $aAt the roots of Christian bioethics$94470353 997 $aUNINA
