THL451 Ethical and Theological Issues in Ageing (8)
This subject has as its starting point the individual and societal experience of ageing in Australian society. On the basis of this data students will reflect in a systematic way on the theological concepts and approaches that Christian, other religious traditions and humanistic approaches bring to a consideration of ageing. In the context of this pluralist theological and philosophical milieu it will then be possible to explore a range of ethical issues associated with ageing in contemporary life.
