How should living things and our own human nature be changed in the hands of those who can alter them genetically? How do we set limits, and what goals are legitimate pursuits? Neither the science of genetics nor the theory of evolution can answer these questions alone. This book's contribution to a theological understanding of science and technology helps in showing how Christian theology can provide a solid framework for considering these issues.

Is human cloning equal to playing God? Is the technology--despite being scientifically exciting--a moral option in our world? In this volume, Ronald Cole-Turner gathers twelve nontechnical and highly accessible essays that explore this controversial subject.

Human Cloning: Religious Responses

How are clergy to respond to the profound impact of genetics and medical technology at the beginning of life? In clear, accessible language Ron Cole-Turner and Brent Waters trace recent developments in the field, then describe the religious and moral issues that confront those coping with difficult pregnancies. Theologically sensitive and enormously practical, Pastoral Genetics is a summons to clergy to engage in an increasingly necessary conversation in the life of the church.
