虽然治疗和增强之间的区别很难准确地得出,特别是在边缘情况下,但最近基督教对增强技术的讨论通过呼吁对自然和人性的普遍理解,接受了治疗干预和增强技术之间的区别的普遍似是而非的合理性。然而,在一些问题上,这种呼吁继续受到概念上不精确的困扰,包括自然作为道德洞察力的来源的地位,根据上帝的目的人类责任的范围,以及罪恶和有限对人类自由的影响。©2009威利-利斯,Inc.
Although distinctions between therapy and enhancement are difficult to draw with precision, especially in marginal cases, recent Christian discussions of enhancement technologies accept the general plausibility of distinctions drawn between therapeutic interventions and enhancement technologies by appealing to general understandings of nature and human nature. However, such appeals continue to be plagued by conceptual imprecision on several matters, including the status of nature as a source of moral insight, the scope of human responsibility in light of God's purposes, and the effects of sin and finitude on human freedom. © 2009 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
