The Ethics of Radical Life Extension: Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox Christian, and Global Ethic Perspectives Haker, Hille | Schweiker, William | Hamalis, Perry | Renaud, Myriam 2021 Journal of the Society of Christian Ethics , Vol. 41 , Issue 2 , S. 315 ff. ( Zeitschrift ) Englisch 1540-7942 | 2326-2176 10.5840/jsce202112753 Abstract
Biomedical technologies capable of sharply reducing or ending human aging, “radical life extension” (RLE), call for a Christian response. The authors featured in this article offer some preliminary thoughts. Common themes include: What kind of life counts as a “good life;” the limits, if any, of human freedom; the consequences of extended life on the human species and on the Earth; the meaning and value of finite and vulnerable embodied life; the experience of time; anthropological self-understanding; and human dignity. Notably, all four authors share serious concerns about RLE’s potential effects.
