In this introductory course, we will try to find answers to the basic questions of moral theology: 1. What is moral theology and what is its basic question? 2. What is the relationship between philosophical and theological ethics? 3. What is the possibility of academic freedom of a theologian in scientific research? 4. What are the problems of autonomy in moral theology? 5. How has moral theology evolved in the history of the Church? 6. What is the right moral action as a basis for the unification of man with God?
