St Cross Seminar: Neither God nor Nature. Could the doping sinner be an exemplar of human(ist) dignity? |
If doping were done in a healthy and fair way, would it be OK? If so, all wrongs would lie in doping abuses involving health risks, deceit and unfairness. I argue that perhaps the doping sinner best exemplifies human dignity and existential authenticity. |
