Abstract
The relationship between bioethics and ecumenism leads to reflection on the anthropological principles that support a normative bioethics of an ecumenical. In a document on the life of Catholics and Lutherans we find that the image of God in man corresponds to human dignity that is the right to life in all its stages, from conception to natural death. All this finds fulfillment in the salvific event, center of this normativity whose basic features are perceived as gifts of the Holy Spirit, the Risen Christ. This normativity of the right to life as an imitation of the feelings of Christ leads to recognition at all stages of human life, especially the unborn, the sanctity of the right to life, which coincides with the first principle of bioethics, with the first principle of creation, valid for Christians in every church and every man.
