520 |a Peter Dabrock argues that western Christian roots have shaped the western European mindset, that of believers and secular thinkers alike, such that (1) western Europeans hold the concept of human dignity as a central moral category and believe that respect for human dignity should frame social and political decisions and respect for human dignity is the foundation of bioethics, (2) Christians and secular thinkers can engage each other on secular terms using the shared language and focus on human dignity, and (3) such engagement using a common moral focus/lens facilitates dialogue and convergence on issues in bioethics. Dabrock's analysis and conclusions raise a number of important points for discussion. This essay examines three elements of his analysis that are particularly important for assessing his overall claim about a common Christian and secular morality in western Europe and for understanding the relationship between such a vision and Christian bioethics.
