Thought for the Day

All advances in knowledge offer possibilities for beneficial use and for harmful exploitation. In the search for the right decisions, we need rational discussion, moral sensitivity, temperate debate, and the participation of as wide a body of people of ethical responsibility and good will as possible. The latter will certainly not come solely from the communities of religious believers, but those communities have a vital part to play in assisting the search for the common good.
