Abstract
"Developments in the biomedical sciences and biotechnology, like medically assisted procreation or genetic modification, arouse ambivalent public reactions. There is hope for new therapies, drugs and foodstuffs, but these developments may also raise questions about fundamental norms, values and beliefs, for instance by research on human embryos, cloning, genetic modification of animals and plants. For the churches, these and many other issues call for profound reflection from the perspective of Christian faith."
