Abstract

This article will approach the confrontation of the concept of human being between the Church and certain groups of scientists, considering that there is currently a debate in bioethics about of the convenience of eliminating this concept and its applicability to the embryo, precisely because there is a disagreement about its theoretical meaning. The effort will focus on presenting what is the theological concept of human parallel on a scientific and philosophical luggage of the term, where there are some discrepancies.
