II. Respect for the Dignity of Persons
2294
It is
an illusion to claim moral neutrality in scientific research and its
applications. On the other hand, guiding principles cannot be inferred from
simple technical efficiency, or from the usefulness accruing to some at the
expense of others or, even worse, from prevailing ideologies. Science and
technology by their very nature require unconditional respect for fundamental
moral criteria. They must be at the service of the human person, of his
inalienable rights, of his true and integral good, in conformity with the plan
and the will of God.
