Abstract

On the basis of Boros's analysis of the acts of will, cognition, perception, remembrance and love, one may conclude that death is the peak moment of human development, at which moment a man’s spiritual acts are intensified, which in turn prompts him to make the final decision to choose God. For this theologian, death is the fulfilment of humanity and the opportunity to make a life decision. Making such a decision at the moment of death is the achievement of the highest spiritual maturity. Death, therefore, is the highest personal act, the most important act of human consciousness and freedom. This is clearly emphasized by Boros in his philosophical-theological vision.

Keywords:
