The history of humanity is the story of humankind’s estrangement from God through sin, and the resultant consequences of corruption, suffering, and death for all of creation. Human beings have from the moment of the fall erected idols to replace their Creator, and attempted to deny the reality of the cause of our brokenness and to overcome that rebellion’s resultant mortal and moral consequences. In the past several centuries the prominent idols have been human autonomy, sexual license, the state, materialism, and the techno-scientific enterprise. As a consequence human beings have become further estranged, not only from God, but from Creation and each other. As so-called “Enlightenment” anthropology has come to dominate our cultures, we have broadly debased, commodified, and exploited our fellow humans, but also deliberately destroyed each other by the millions, all in the name of the illusory god, Progress. The story of bioethics is the story of humankind’s latest forays in idolatrous self-destruction and corruption via biotechnology. As most of bioethics literature and discourse is based in the errors of Enlightenment and postmodern philosophy, anthropology, and ethics, bioethics is not only a chronicler, but a contributor to further imprisonment of human beings by contemporary versions of ancient idolatry.
