Bioethics in A Brave New World
Biology is the science of living things, but with the advancements in the fields of technology many moral questions raise the eyebrows of the biologists all over the world. It used to be simple, observing organisms under a microscope, no harm is done. Now biology has expanded into many fields, filled with mines of morals ready to explode. The results of advancements are all around us today. There are the good: greater knowledge of organisms, vaccines, and the greater knowledge of our own bodies. However to every good result there is also a bad or immoral result, such as, abortion and genetic engineering. The problem does not lie in the deed itself as much as it lies in the people who perform these actions. Many times doctors are technicians disposing medicine rather that one who relates to the patient in anyway possible(McCormick, 21). Ethical thoughts are blunted in a country with immoral values (McCormick, 21). More and more doctors forget the gift of life and make inhumane decisions. As in the medical procedures of euthanasia and abortion. As Richard A. McCormick stated, "The most basic value in the practice of medicine is obviously the sanctity of live." (21)
