Urged by its mission to all of God's children, the Church cannot stand aloof from the rest of hu- man society. Wherever possible, Christians seek to establish common cause against whatever might dehumanize the individu- al or society. Bioethics can be a common ground, where persons of good will everywhere unite in collaboration against a common foe — the misuse of biomedical technology. Clearly, however, the com- mon foe is not technology as such. Much good has come from the application of technology to human life. Granted that much re- mains to be done, especially in the just distribution of technologi- cal goods, technology has contributed mightily to making human life more human, that is, more in keeping with our rational and loving nature. Today people need to spend less time on the effort merely to survive and can give more time to cultivating the arts (whereby we can appreciate the beauty of God's creation), the sciences (whereby we can better understand the world God has created), and religion (whereby we can worship God in truth and penetrate more deeply into the mysteries of God's love for us). Biomedical technology has enabled more people to live longer, with less pain and fewer physical malfunctions. The common foes of the Christian community and the human community in general are those who would misuse technology. Misuse need not be knowing. Whether knowing or not, decisions and actions which use the gifts of technology in a manner inimi- cal to the true well-being of persons must be resisted intelligently and effectively. Bioethics arose gradually in response to new problems associated with the introduction of biomedial technolo- gy into medical practice on a wide scale. Increased power over life processes and disease gave physicians and medical scientists awesome responsibility. Bioethical concerns increased sharply and united scholars in an effort to insure that medical technology (Photo by Robert S.

Anyone who has spent time with dying believers knows how much the sacraments mean to dying patients and their families. Much of this depends upon how the sick have been cared for in the long days of dying. The inter-personal character of the sacraments provides the firmest bridge between priest and pa- tient. There is the peace that comes from the sacra- ment of reconciliation wherein we come to terms with our lives, when we try to make peace with God, our families and friends, wherein we still hear the voice that Peter and Magdalen heard. That same voice echoes through thousands of sick rooms where men and women still hear that wondrous promise: "Go in peace, your sins are forgiven you." EDUCATION Education is critical. We cannot prevent death or any one individual's experience with it, but we are derelict if we do not attempt to bring the subject of death and dying to light. We should start with our children —• help them as early as possible to better understand illness, loss, and the pain of permanent separation.
