Zdrowie – wymiary pedagogiczno-teologiczne. Zarys problematyki wychowania ku odpowiedzialności za zdrowie

Abstrakt

Nowadays more and more often we can observe the worship of body (as well as the   worship of bodily health) called the worship of “golden calf”. The phenomenon relates to   wide promoting and adhering of various forms of human outside body (it is identified with   the American-style worship of body and it is experienced every day via media pictures).   That situation leads to a peculiar market of “body and health”, where they themselves   become merchandise for selling and buying (it is a style relating to economical and   ideological worship of corporality). Contemporarily observed tendencies depict extreme   individualism through granting absolute value and freedom to man (without reference to   corporeal and spiritual integrity) and they place that individualism in centre of reality, as   the only criterion for reference and assessment. This contribute to gathering as much as   possible earthly goods with various possible ways, what, in consequence, may lead to   a situation, in which man will be incapable to social solidarity and to living in community   (man will act according to materialistic convictions and he will become victim of artificial   corporeal and health needs). Simultaneously absolute freedom leads to disorganization in   corporeal and health sphere (drug addiction, prostitution, alcoholism, etc.).
