We all need help dealing with end-of-life issues. The Institute for Christian & Jewish Studies believes that the interplay of diverse religious perspectives provides a fresh and challenging approach to these issues, making it possible for us to see them in a new light. For this reasons the ICJS sponsored a three-year project entitled Medicine, Mortality, and Morality. The result was an enriching interaction among Jews, Christians, and Muslims from the medical and religious communities.
The published Study Guide is distilled from that process. The issues raised by the theme of dying well were amplified by the challenges associated with Alzheimer’s disease.
This wiki is designed to continue the discussion. Please join us by telling your story, your concerns or your point of view. To fully understand the issues discussed here, we do suggest you purchase a copy of the ICJS Alzheimer's Study Guide. All proceeds help us to continue the dialogue.
