Abstract

The issues of conscience played an important role in the scientific creativity of Father. prof. Stanislaus Olejnik. These aspects were already present in his first publications and remained a constantly recurring subject of reflection. The article recalls his achievements in this field, noting that Fr. prof. Olejnik drew from both the rich tradition of reflection on the conscience and learned, critically assessed and used a contemporary approach. He boldly argued with views which were erroneous, and even hostile to the Christian vision of man and his conscience. Above all, he patiently explained the position of Catholic ethics. Bearing in mind the interest of readers he constantly elaborated on the religious and moral holistic approach to the subject of conscience. He referred to the teaching of the Church, but also proposed a universal, humanistic outlook, which he introduced, among others, in the context of reflection on medical ethics.
