| Summary: | The debate on sins against nature presents us with what seems to be a dilemma between nature-based ethics and personalist ethics centred on charity. If reason draws on natural presuppositions, it does not seem adequate as a guide for interpersonal communion, but if it lacks these it appears to lose all points of reference. Therefore, the challenge of linking nature, reason and people together, represents a crossroads for different and competing versions of natural law. I will refl ect especially on two interpretative proposals of the natural presuppositions of practical reason, those by M. Rhonheimer and J. Porter, which shall enable us to critically evaluate neoscolastic naturalism as well as the personalism of «revisionists». By taking the most relevant contributions of each of them, I will try to show that the concept of natural law should be considered as a tension among nature, reason and humans, seen as three irreducible and mutually interpreting polarities. |
