Abstract
Recent technological developments have resulted in breakthroughs for the enhancement of human form and functioning. Current bioethical debates grant insufficient attention to theological considerations. It is increasingly difficult to defend the position that theology has an integral role to play in ethical debates. This article reflects upon four specific ethical topics related to enhancement. I will present historical theological considerations on these topics and explore future avenues for a common dialogue in ethics and theology.
