尊重生命
校园部 is active in promoting respect for life from natural birth to natural death. We do so in a manner that is consistent with the Roman Catholic Church’s ethic of life and grounded in Catholic Social Teaching and the understanding that all people are created in the image of God, 因此有资格享有人类的尊严. 长达一年, academic research aimed at discussing relevant issues of life will help to promote human dignity through service, 教育, 意识和倡导.
Although respect-for-life is a topic that has been distorted with ideological government discourse and directed political party policy implementation, 尊重生命在圣. 爱德华的 is an attitude and an inherent part of the morally focused way of life. Respect for life is rooted in the belief that the dignity and equality of all human persons is the foundation of a moral vision for society. 的 Pierle Scholar for Respect For Life Issues is filled by a St. 爱德华的 student(s) who is passionate about collaboratively working to sponsor and promote to build campus awareness for 尊重生命 issues through research and scholarship. 的ir research is focused on topics such as the death penalty, 堕胎, 安乐死, 人口贩卖, homelessness and other social issues that impede upon the ability for people to live with dignity.
的目标 Pierle 学者要:
- Create spaces for conversation and discussion about what it means to respect life.
- Develop an academic paper on respect life issues that is viable for publication both on and off St. 爱德华的校园.
- 计划活动, 项目, 和计划, 经常支持他们的论文主题, that educates on and promotes a deeper respect and compassion for life.
