Ethical Issues in Cyborgization: The Case of Brain-Computer Interface Ogbujah, Columbus; Ufomadu, Charles
MELINTAS An International Journal of Philosophy and Religion (MIJPR) Vol. 26 No. 2 (2010)
Publisher : Faculty of Philosophy, Parahyangan Catholic University, Bandung

A cyborg, also known as a cybernetic organism, is a being with both biological and artificial values. Real (as opposed to fictional) cyborgs are more frequently people who use cybernetic technology, like the Brain-Computer Interface, to repair or overcome the physical and mental constraints of their bodies. The Brain-Computer Interface (BCI), sometimes called divert neural interface or Brain-Machine Interface (BMI) is a divert communication pathway between a brain and an external device which aims at assisting, augmenting or repairing human cognitive or sensory-motor functions. It consists of systems that transform biological signals recorded from neural tissue into electronic signals that control a computer interface. Once such a control is attained, it can then be translated into a system that can control a machine or a physical device or can even stimulate or activate biological tissues. Its principal goal is to enable people with neural pathways that have been damaged by amputation, trauma or disease to function and control their environment either through the reanimation of paralyzed limbs or control of robotic devices. A typical BCI/BMI consists of various components which include the acquisition, processing and discharge of signals. All BCIs use either the invasive or non-invasive methods. In isolated but real cases, chips which have been implanted into human brain have produced signals of high enough quality to stimulate movement. Also, retinal implants have restored vision to people suffering from retinitis pigmentosa and vision loss due to aging. However, there are strong ethical concerns that the very idea of the interface between humans and machines can potentially alter what it takes to be human. KeyWords:*Brain Computer Interface, *cyborg, *human brain, *ethical concern, *biological capacities, *enhancement, *alteration, *the naturals, *the enhanced, *'normal functioning', *colateral implications, *personal identity, *autonomy

The Quick Growth of the Catholic Church in Manggarai: A Phenomenology of Conversion and Some Explanations Borgias M., Fransiskus
MELINTAS An International Journal of Philosophy and Religion (MIJPR) Vol. 31 No. 3 (2015)
Publisher : Faculty of Philosophy, Parahyangan Catholic University, Bandung

Since the arrival of Christianity together with the colonial rulers, Manggarai, Flores, Indonesia, undergoes physical and spiritual changes. These changes can be explained with theory of intellectual voluntarism (the free will of the repentant) and theory of structural determinism (enforcement by external factor). It appears that the changes in Manggarai happen because of the mixture of both factors in their diverse variants, such as the political-economical, educational, social-services related, and religious-theological factors. There are two horizons in the whole process of encounter and transformation in this area. On the one hand, there is the horizon of European Christian missionaries (supported by government), and on the other hand, the horizon of the Manggarain, with their cultural life in the broadest sense of the word. The two horizons fuse to each other in one drama of cultural encounter throughout the growth of the Church. Following the hermeneutical discourse of Gadamer, it might be said that the fusion of the two horizons results in the emergence of a new face of unique local and contextual Christianity. In its uniqueness and locality, it has also something to be contributed to the universal Church.

PHILOSOPHY, CULTURE, RELIGION AND TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT IN AFRICA Akaninwor, George I. Ken.
MELINTAS An International Journal of Philosophy and Religion (MIJPR) Vol. 23 No. 2 (2007)
Publisher : Faculty of Philosophy, Parahyangan Catholic University, Bandung

Artikel ini meneliti pengaruh filsafat, kebudayaan dan agama terhadap pendidikan dan pengembangan sumberdaya manusia di bidang teknik. Filsafat telah berperan penting dalam mengembangkan gagasan, teori, sistem, dsb. dalam rangka memecahkan masalah di bidang pelatihan teknik. Dari pengamatan di dapatkan bahwa unsur-unsur kebudayaan tertentu memang menjadi beban bagi pengembangan tenaga teknis itu. Beberapa contoh adalah pelarangan perempuan untuk terlibat dalam program-program ilmiah dan teknologi; diskriminasi etnik dan religius. Di sisi lain agama-agama telah memberi kontribusi yang sangat berarti dalam pendirian lembagalembaga pelatihan.

Kontribusi Fenomenologi Post-Subjek pada Metodologi Filosofis dan Teologis Tedjoworo, Hadrianus
MELINTAS An International Journal of Philosophy and Religion (MIJPR) Vol. 34 No. 1 (2018)
Publisher : Faculty of Philosophy, Parahyangan Catholic University, Bandung

Givenness is probably an odd term in methodology, but not in phenomenology. The long history of subjectivism in philosophy faces confrontations from Derrida's deconstruction. This history also results in a sort of mutual exclusion between philosophy and theology. The concept of the subject becomes a problem for both, but frequently it is safeguarded for the sake of a more universal 'objectivity'. The phenomenological tendency towards phenomenon, more than towards the experiencing subject and more than anything regarded as object, provokes some philosophical focus on the emancipation of the phenomena. Marion pushes phenomenology to its limits, to the extent that he is suspected of undermining the role of the subject in contemporary philosophical discourse. He reacts to Derrida's deconstruction, which was also criticised for not offering a way out of the labyrinth from the collapse of traditional thoughts. Marion is quite consistent with his phenomenology, namely in offering a way out for the subject to be a witness, and reminds that philosophy should be more appreciative of phenomena. The term saturated phenomenon represents his philosophical thinking that can be regarded as a methodological approach to respect, and not to dominate, reality. Being a witness is not the same as playing a critic on reality. This could be a useful stance for philosophers as well as theologians in the presence of the phenomena they cannot master, namely, the given phenomena.

Death Penalty: The Present Day Threat to Human Life Phillips, Gerardette
MELINTAS An International Journal of Philosophy and Religion (MIJPR) Vol. 30 No. 1 (2014)
Publisher : Faculty of Philosophy, Parahyangan Catholic University, Bandung

The death penalty is not an act of self-defense against an immediate threat to life. It is the premeditated killing of a prisoner who could be dealt with equally well by less harsh means. There can never be a justification for torture or for cruel, inhumane or degrading treatment or punishment. The cruelty of the death penalty is evident. Like torture, an execution constitutes an extreme physical and mental assault on a person already rendered helpless by government authorities. The most common justification offered is that, terrible as it is, the death penalty is necessary: it may be necessary only temporarily, but, it is argued, only the death penalty can meet a particular need of society. And whatever that need may be, it is claimed to be so great that it justifies the cruel punishment of death. The death penalty, as a violation of fundamental human rights, would be wrong even if it could be shown that it uniquely met a vital social need. What makes the use of the death penalty even more indefensible and the case for its abolition even more compelling is that it has never been shown to have any special power to meet any genuine social need.

REVIEW OF YOHANES S. PURWADI'S “SOCIO-CULTURAL DIMENSION OF SCIENCE” Wijaya, Irianto
MELINTAS An International Journal of Philosophy and Religion (MIJPR) Vol. 24 No. 3 (2008)
Publisher : Faculty of Philosophy, Parahyangan Catholic University, Bandung

Whenever we claim that our idea is better than another idea, it is always important to have a good understanding of the ‘inferior’ idea and to be able to present our own one in a clear and coherent manner. The failure to do both will lead not only to a bad argument, but, more fatally, also to an unfair judgment of the idea we oppose.

Between Human Rights and Justice Principle in Children’s Civil Rights Novenanty, Wurianalya Maria
MELINTAS An International Journal of Philosophy and Religion (MIJPR) Vol. 32 No. 2 (2016)
Publisher : Faculty of Philosophy, Parahyangan Catholic University, Bandung

Children’s rights are fundamental in a country. Children are the future generation of a country. They have rights in civil law field. The examples of such rights are the right to have family name, the right to get alimony, and the right to get inheritance from the parents. Indonesian Law Number 1 of 1974 regarding Marriage (Marriage Law) distinguishes the civil rights of legitimate and illegitimate children. In 2010, the Indonesian Constitutional Court produced a decision which became a controversial decision because it was deemed to ‘legalize’ illegitimate child to have the same rights as legitimate child. The reason behind such decision is the human rights which should apply nondiscriminative principle. Some parties disagree with the reasoning behind this decision. They consider the decision unjust and that it violates social and religious norms in giving illegitimate and legitimate children the same rights in spite of the status difference. The author will discuss children’s civil rights based on civil law, human rights, and justice principle in Indonesia.
