...Studieretningsprojekt omsavior[Dokumentets titel] Studieretningsprojekt omsavior[Dokumentets titel] Saviour siblings Saviour siblings Signe Gertz Jensen 3.x Rosborg Gymnasium og HF 2015 Signe Gertz Jensen 3.x Rosborg Gymnasium og HF 2015 Abstract This study examines different varieties of stem cells and how they can be used to medically treat people, who are terminally ill. It will also examine, how hematopoietic stem cell transplantations affect both the donor and the receiver. Aside from that it will contain an analysis of “My sister’s keeper” by Jodi Picoult, which will be used to understand the ethical questions that are relevant. In 2004 Danish legislation made it legal to make so called saviour siblings with the same tissue type as their sick older sibling. This meant legalising a certain method of stem cell therapy. In 2009 the first saviour sibling in Denmark was born. A child just like the fictional “Anna” from the novel “My sister’s keeper.” This novel was written in 2004 with the purpose of creating discussion about the stem cell research and use within medical treatment. The ethical questions of stem cell use, makes it problematic to use certain stem cell types called humane embryonic stem cells. Instead another type of pluripotent stem cells can be used. These are called induced pluripotent stem cells and are made specifically for the patient. This means no embryo gets killed in the process. These ethical questions are discussed...

...Euthanasia: Murder or Saviour? Ladies and Gentlemen, Euthanasia refers to the practice of intentionally ending a life in order to relieve pain and suffering. It is not yet legal in Britain, but when a poll was taken, it was discovered that 85% of the people believed that euthanasia should be legalised. I strongly agree. Who wouldn’t want to stop their pain if it would never end? I’m not saying that anyone that wants to die should be able to be euthanized, there of course would be regulations. My practical arguments are that it is possible to regulate euthanasia, that allowing people to die may free up scarce health resources, and also euthanasia happens anyway. My social argument is that death is a private matter (if it bares no harm to others). My political argument is that people have an explicit right to die. Instead of wasting effort on the patients who wish to die, more medical time and money could be spent on those who want and have the chance to live. Euthanasia is a relatively cheap option; the drug only costing around $87 is the USA. People may say that it would cost a lot more if because of regulatory control, but with appropriate control it could be sensibly priced. To add to the practical argument, beds in hospital could be used on people who want to stay alive. Even if it isn’t legalised, it will happen anyway with people going to Switzerland to have it happen. If you knew you were in large amounts of pain, and knew it was only going to get worse till the...

...‘Whoever saves one life saves the world entire,’ read a ring presented to Oskar Schindler by his Jewish workers on the eve of their liberation from Nazi Germany. A German businessman, Schindler had hired 1100 Jews to perform the labour in his enamelware & munitions factories during the perilous time of The Holocaust - starting as a business decision to take advantage of cheaper workers, eventually his empathic connection with the terror experienced during the liquidation of the Kraków ghetto moved his objective to saving as many lives as possible. His objectives and motives are questioned, however, with some statements even going as far to say that rather than being a great saviour of the Jewish people, Oskar Schindler was merely an opportunist who tried to get rich using the profitable Jewish workers. Although both statements can be said to be correct, Schindler, in the end, was merely a clever & intuitive businessman whose ethics were not blinded by Nazi propaganda. Oskar Schindler started his business using clear ways to save money and take advantage of others’ work: he selected a Jew named Itzhak Stern to take care of the accounting and monetary management of the factory, whilst Schindler reaped the rewards and represented the company; he also obviously hired over a thousand ‘essential Jewish workers’ to manufacture the enamelware to be used in the time of war, as he wouldn't have to pay them such great amounts compared to locals. Oskar Schindler indeed started the war...

...Is genetic engineering ethically right? Genetic engineering was first discovered in the 1970’s and since then ethical questions been raised regarding the process and results. Some people are excited by the possibilities of genetic engineering while others believe the process is unethical and should be banned as they claim scientists are ‘playing god’. Ethics is the philosophical study of what is morally right or wrong. It is a system of moral principles. They affect how people make decisions and lead their lives. Philosophers tend to divide ethical theories into three areas; meta-ethics, normative ethics and applied ethics. This was first done by David Hume the philosopher who argued how we should look at ethical situations. “Meta-ethics looks at the meaning of language used in ethics, and raises questions about truth. Normative ethics tries to find practical moral standards that we can all live our lives by. These are also called ethical theories. Applied ethics is the application of theories about whether something is right or wrong in specific issues.” Distance Learning Centre, Ethics Pack, 2012. In the 1960’s a professor, Joseph Fletcher founded the theory Situation Ethics. In Situation Ethics right and wrong depend on the situation. There are no universal moral rules or rights, each case is unique and deserves a unique solution. “Situation Ethics is all about agape or love. You should always do the most loving thing” Distance Learning Centre, Ethics Pack, 2012. There...

...“Embryo Research is ethically justifiable.” - Discuss Genetic engineering is an umbrella term for all gene modification and research that is taking place in modern science. Embryonic research has results in multiple successes including stem cell research but has come under serious controversy for using potential life for gain with no regard for that life. T - Kantian Ethics is purely deontological looking at doing duty for duties sake not the outcome of an action therefore for Kantian ethics to agree with the statement Embryonic research must pass the categorical imperative. I - An example of embryonic research includes eugenic genetic engineering in which germ-line therapy to create a better ‘race’ of people by changing the genetic makeup of future generations. C - Although eugenic genetics is illegal in most countries, examples have been seen throughout history such as Hitler’s arian race in which he tried to exterminate other unworthy races like jews. K - Eugenic engineering would have to passed the principle of universalisability; in which the moral choice would have to be universal across everyone worldwide without conflict interests. Eugenic engineering would not be successful, by choosing to create a certain race it would create huge conflict from those who do not fit the model. Minorities would be ignored and potentially discriminated upon. E - When applied to the issue, the principle of universalisability becomes an unrealistic choice to make an ethical decision...

...die lost (unsaved) and He reaches out to us from His Word today and tries to reason with our hearts and minds with a clear statement about our life, how the Gospel message pertains to us in it’s importance, with the things in life that Satan will use to get us as human beings to not think about our soul, and says to us: "For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel’s, the same shall save it. For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" (Mark 8:35–37 KJB) For an illustration to the importance of using our lives for the cause of Christ, and a person knowing the Lord Jesus as Saviour and Lord there was a famous missionary to India named “Henry Martyn” who lived from 1781 to 1812, he was a brilliant man.

I would a passing grade, that is number one, but knowing God is another. Seeking him and having him alongside me as I take this course will give me that passing grade. I look towards to learning more about my Lord, and others ways to help me draw closer to him in my everyday busy schedule. Yes, at times I may fall off course, and disobey God, but I know I am not perfect, Then there I good finding myself back on track.

...research project would not have been possible without the support of many people. I would like to thank the LORD for giving me the will and strength to complete this assignment. Secondly I would like to thank my friends and family for their small input. Thank you all for your participation to the completion and success of this School Based Assessment. Introduction The topic I chose was the beliefs of Pentecostals . The Pentecostal denomination believes in salvation , Baptism with the Holy Spirit , Divine healing , Eschatology and the Spiritual Gifts . My intent is for the reader to come into a deeper understanding of what the Pentecostal denomination is like. Salvation is simply the accepting of Jesus into your life as your saviour and believing that he died for our sins on the cross, and as such we will be resurrected with him in a newness of life (born again). Baptism in Pentecostals take place in 3 different ways ( Water baptism , Baptism into the body of Christ and Baptism with the Holy Spirit. Pentecostals believe in Eschatology which is simply the belief that Jesus can return at anytime so we have to be ready. Lastly they believe in the Spiritual Gifts which are special abilities given to certain persons in the Body of Christ in which they use to cause persons to experience God . So as you read through this project I hope that you will be very informed on Pentecostal beliefs. Statement of Aims Topic : Pentecostals and their Beliefs It is my intention...

...lyricsWhen I was a young boy, My father took me into the city To see a marching band. He said, "Son when you grow up, would you be the saviour of the broken, the beaten and the damned?" He said "Will you defeat them, your demons, and all the non-believers, the plans that they have made?" "Because one day I'll leave you, A phantom to lead you in the summer, To join The Black Parade." When I was a young boy, My father took me into the city To see a marching band. He said, "Son when you grow up, would you be the saviour of the broken, the beaten and the damned?" Sometimes I get the feeling she's watching over me. And other times I feel like I should go. And through it all, the rise and fall, the bodies in the streets. And when you're gone we want you all to know. We'll carry on, We'll carry on And though you're dead and gone believe me Your memory will carry on We'll carry on And in my heart I can't contain it The anthem won't explain it. A world that sends you reeling from decimated dreams Your misery and hate will kill us all. So paint it black and take it back Let's shout it loud and clear Defiant to the end we hear the call To carry on We'll carry on And though you're dead and gone believe me Your memory will carry on We'll carry on And though you're broken and defeated Your weary widow marches On and on we carry through the fears Ooh oh ohhhh Disappointed faces of your peers Ooh oh ohhhh Take a look at me cause I...
