I do believe that there is a very real bias in the "mainstream" bioethics, especially in the academic world. Just as with much of the formal sciences and medicine, the belief that all humans at all stages of life are deserving of special protection from harm - the "prolife" viewpoint - is not welcome.
To me, those who claim to be representative of American Bioethics who should, of all people, be held to a higher level.
Is it censoring or is it just poor editorship?
The silly announcement the editors and pseudoeditors at blog.bioethics.net decided to monitor each comment followed last week's lost comments and website glitch. Those missing comments are still missing and the website's posts as well as the comments have slowed down. And the website's comment feature no longer "remembers" my name and information.
Meanwhile, the UPenn Bioethics Symposium has managed to get a Baptist leader, Dr. William J. Shaw , to join the Zen Ph.D. in speaking to religious perspectives on end of life decisions.
