Page 8 THE CONCORDIAN March 4, 1966 Editorial Ethical Responsibilities . . . •#. In recent weeks, various chapel speeches, newspaper articles, and Great Decisions discussions have focused attention upon questions related to ethical values in a growing, changing society. The concern for ethical standards is important for as the world in which we live changes, new situations demanding moral judgments are presented. As last Monday's chapel speaker noted, science Has made great progress in understanding the biological basis of life. Unraveling the secrets of life enables scientists to directly in- fluence man's development. This ability presents a complex set of moral problems. Other advances of science can also significantly affect an individual. The capacity of the memory may be subject to control in the future. Various psychological techniques can significantly affect personalities and basic attitudes. Modern medicine can arti- ficially prolong life. These discoveries of science raise some pretty serious questions. Do men have the right of responsibility to substan- tially change their physical and menial natures? Do men have the right to affect in this way the lives of others? And if so, to what extent? The problems of ethical values extend to other areas. Political and economic situations also present difficult ethical situations. Among these questions are birth control, problems related to the emerging nations, and international controversies in a nuclear age. Each day the growing population of the world demands a greater food supply. However, the inability of economic growth Educational Television presents a new series on the "History of the Negro People" March 1 to keep pace with the population explosion adds thousands to at 10:30 a.m. and March 9 at 9:30 p.m. on Channel 13. the ranks of the starving.
