In the half-century since Watson and Crick first deduced the structure of DNA (1953), our knowledge of the fundamental properties of organic life has grown exponentially. So too has our ability to manipulate those properties for the relief of suffering and the improvement of human life. Our continued pursuit of genetic knowledge and the application of that knowledge to human life have sparked vigorous debate on a variety of distinct but related levels of inquiry: scientific, practical, moral, political, philosophical, and theological. This course aims to introduce students to a representative sampling of these debates. It emphasizes the inescapably theological dimension underlying them all. Prerequisite: THEO 101 and one 200-level or 300-level THEO course and PHIL 115
