The beginning of the human existence as a whole comprises the lifeworldly basis of the coming into the world that precedes procreation, and the lifetime of man, which is subdivided on the basis of physical, neurobiological, psychological and socio-cultural developments into the period of foundation up to toddler s age and the period of unfolding to the end of life. This anthropology provides a new theological view of God's likeness as imago Dei, as a "fundamental", inalienable characteristic, and as unfolding in becoming similar to God. Concepts of identity, autopoetic continuity, human animation and prenatal personal-dialogical existence are presented. Genetics, epigenetics as an influence of environment and ancestors, and the personal-dialogical communication, especially with the mother, determine the becoming of the new human being and his nature, his health or risk of illness in adulthood. This foundation takes place without personal responsibility and is thus the always already given basis of dignity, tolerance and recognition of oneself and the other.
