Godność i podmiotowość człowieka a eutanazja
Dignity and Subjectivity of Man toward Euthanasia

Summary/Abstract: The article addresses dangers of destruction of dignity and subjectivity of man which arise from the part of secular culture. The culture is losing sensitivity to God and diminishing the value of man. This hedonistic and utilitarian culture particularly attacks the weaker, that is, sick and dying people. The struggle with suffering is made into the fight against the suffer- ers and into the elimination of them.These kinds of practices are theoretically supported by some of bioethi- cists. They claim that the value of human life depends on its biological and psychological quality. In this way, they exclude some people from the community of persons.The article, arguing from the position of the personalist ethics, opposes any new theoretical and practical forms of the discrimination against man.
