Paul Minkowski Dr. Nicola Nicoloff Juliana Orr-Weaver Dr. Al Rossi Dr. John Shultz Rev. Dn. Michael Wusylko Accomplishments/Progress Since the 13th All-American Council The Medical-Ethics Commission keeps abreast of the latest developments in medical science, bioethics, and related fields on behalf of and in an effort to advise the Holy Synod of Bishops. The commission also provides resources and recommendations on contemporary medical and ethical issues as needs arise. The last report of this commission was submitted in July 2004. During that year I was in discussion with Dr. Al Rossi regarding his SCOBA paper on homosexuality and same-sex unions, and with Dr. Terry Orr-Weaver on the question of the status of the pre-implantation embryo. These are areas of primary importance for us today, given the current pres- sures in this country toward legalizing same-sex marriage, and toward acceptance of medical procedures involving manipulation of human embryos, including human cloning. There is a great deal of discussion currently going on in both of these areas, and it is not yet possible to provide answers to some of the most pressing issues. With regard to same-sex unions: Dr. Rossi drafted a very thoughtful paper on homosexuality in response to a SCOBA request for a statement that addresses the problem of same-sex unions.

  • Book Chaillot History Orthodox Church Western Europe 27 Jan 2021
    Book Chaillot History Orthodox Church Western Europe 27 Jan 2021 This book gives an introduction to the history of the Orthodox Church and its different jurisdictions in the 20th century in Western Europe, country by country. The main aim of these articles is to allow people to discover, or to make better known, the genesis and history of these Orthodox communities in Western Europe and also to understand the present situation of the Orthodox Church in a Western Europe now united and without borders. We hope that this book may be profitable not only at the level of Christian ecumenical and inter-religious dialogues, but specially for the Orthodox themselves, who often ignore these histories so close to us in time and space. Articles collected under the editorship of Christine Chaillot Prefaces by Metropolitan Emmanuel of France, Bishop Luka of France and Western Europe, Metropolitan Seraphim of Germany, Central and Northern Europe, Bishop Basil of Sergievo and Protopresbyter Boris Bobrinskoy A SHORT HISTORY OF THE ORTHODOX CHURCH IN WESTERN EUROPE IN THE TWENTIETH CENTURY Articles collected under the editorship of Christine Chaillot Prefaces by Metropolitan Emmanuel of France, Bishop Luka of France and Western Europe, Metropolitan Seraphim of Germany, Central and Northern Europe, Bishop Basil of Sergievo and Protopresbyter Boris Bobrinskoy (d. 2020) Inter-Orthodox Dialogue, Paris, 2006 This book was first printed by Orthdruk, Bialystok, Poland, in 2006.
