ABSTRACT

As long as life exists and life science and medical technology develops, Bioethic is continuously debatable issue. Because of this, Hwang Woo Suk situation happened in 2005 had a role to remind all the people to find out the problem with Bioethics. Although the development of life science technology achieved lots of medical result such as life extension and health improvement, there is double-sideness that can occur social ethical problems which are euthanasia, cloning, genetic testing that can violate dignity of life. Due to this, there is a constant debate in individual bioethical problem whether these actions are ethically right or not. Bioethical education should not be a mere pros and cons debate about each issue. Without understanding life and introspect of life dignity can lead the debate only into interest. This paper is based on the result that religious belief life improves bioethical life and we are trying to find out the responsibility of life and the need of education of bioethical from education of religion on Daesoonjinrihoi. The problem of bioethic is the humanity which is based on the religious spirit. As well as other religious, in Daesoonjinrihoi first priority is the value of life. Thus, this research paper is trying to explore bioethic of Haewonsangseng(Co-existence through Resolution of Grievances), Boeunsangseng(Co-existence through of Faver returning), based on understanding of life in Daesoonjinrihoi. Moreover, through Hunhoi(the code of conduct) which is practical ethic of daily human life we are trying to debate about the issue of cultivation of character based on religious spirit.
