The Rev. Dr. Graham O’Brien, Ph.D (Molecular Biology) M.Th (Master of Theology)
Graham has achieved a high level of study in science and theology including a thesis on ‘Biblical Bioethics’. Bioethics considers biotechnological issues such as genetic modification and climate change as well as questions of personal values in primary health care – including end – of – life questions. Graham notes: “There are are strong emotions on both sides of the euthanasia debate, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t talk about it.” Graham is the Ministry Educator for the Nelson Anglican Diocese and a member of the Interchurch Bioethics Council.
