The abortion debate – the language of life, choice and rights – severs women, and their pain, from history. I don't want to forget my abortion and I don't want to forget theirs By Erin Maglaque. Read by Lanna Joffrey. Help support our independent journalism at theguardian.com/longreadpod

Sarah Lee Morse was a substitute teacher in Scotland. Students asked her repeatedly about abortion. She answered honestly: "As a faithful Catholic, I don't agree with it. I don't support it." She acknowledged others disagreed. She redirected students to their work. She was dismissed the same day.No warning. No opportunity to explain. Just termination for expressing a religious belief—in response to a question she did not initiate.Morse is now pursuing a discrimination claim based on religious belief. She argues that students should be exposed to differing opinions, not indoctrinated into a single viewpoint. When a student pressed her on abortion in cases of rape, she responded: "I don't think it's right to punish a child for something bad that the parent did."Make the switch today to iCatholicMobile today!iCatholic Mobile—supporting the Catholic faith with every connection.https://www.facebook.com/icatholicmobile https://www.icatholicmobile.com/ HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

Peter Northcott of National Right to Life National Right to LifeThe post Abortion Ballot Initiatives in Idaho, Virginia, Nevada and Missouri – Peter Northcott, 7/22/26 (2032) first appeared on Issues, Etc..

Abortion isn't just about abortion—it's about everything.  It's about who gets to decide the course of a woman's life. It's about healthcare, democracy, power, freedom, and the stories we've been taught to believe. In this can't-miss conversation, Amanda traces the shocking history of abortion in America—from witch hunts to medical monopolies to the political strategy that transformed abortion into a partisan weapon. Then journalist and activist Jessica Valenti joins to expose what extremists are doing now, why these attacks were never really about abortion, and why she refuses to believe they're winning. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, confused, or hopeless about this moment, this episode will give you something even more powerful than outrage: clarity. - How abortion became a political weapon—and what it's really about. - Why abortion bans haven't reduced abortions. - How attacks on abortion threaten all reproductive healthcare. - The hidden strategies extremists are using now—and how to recognize them. - How the vast majority of Americans are on the same side—and why hope is a strategy. - Practical ways to take action, support local abortion funds, and protect your community.

Today from SDPB - counties can establish a half-cent sales tax to lower property taxes, a judge is halting enforcement on a state law banning the advertisement of abortion pills and more.

In this episode of The International Risk Podcast, host Dominic Bowen is joined by Professor Michele Goodwin, a leading bioethicist and constitutional law scholar at Georgetown Law, to unpack the history, law, and power structures shaping reproductive rights in America.Goodwin challenges the assumption that abortion criminalization has always been the norm, tracing its roots to the U.S. Civil War and the political battle over slavery. She explains why the Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade wasn't simply a return to democratic decision-making, why abortion is medically far safer than pregnancy itself, and why today's map of abortion bans mirrors the map of the former Confederacy. The conversation also covers the criminalization of pregnancy and motherhood, the disproportionate targeting of Black women by law enforcement, the shifting legal question of fetal personhood, and the Supreme Court's inconsistent treatment of bodily autonomy depending on race and gender.Key topics discussed:Why abortion criminalization has political, not purely moral or medical, originsWhy Dobbs wasn't simply "returning the issue to democracy"The medical reality of pregnancy, viability, and abortion safetyThe criminalization and policing of pregnant women, particularly Black womenWhen and how personhood and citizenship are legally definedThe Supreme Court's inconsistent treatment of bodily autonomy across race and genderThis episode is relevant to anyone interested in law, human rights, public health, race, democracy, or international risk.The International Risk Podcast brings you conversations with global experts, frontline practitioners, and senior decision-makers who are shaping how we understand and respond to international risk. From geopolitical volatility and organised crime, to cybersecurity threats and hybrid warfare, each episode explores the forces transforming our world and what smart leaders must do to navigate them. Whether you're a board member, policymaker or risk professional, The International Risk Podcast delivers actionable insights, sharp analysis, and real-world stories that matter.Dominic Bowen is the host of The International Risk Podcast and Europe's leading expert on international risk and crisis management. As Head of Strategic Advisory and Partner at one of Europe's leading risk management consulting firms, Dominic advises CEOs, boards, and senior executives across the continent on how to prepare for uncertainty and act with intent.

Part one of this discussion made the assertion that no matter how many pragmatic benefits abortion affords, they still don't justify the mass execution of the most innocent and helpless members of the human community. In this follow-up, we look at the claim that outlawing abortion does not actually reduce total abortions. Is that true? This is a public episode.

TAKING GROUND: Opposition In The Spirit Steve Parrish ‭‭‭‭‭Ephesians 6:10–12 (ESV) Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.

And when they had come up to Mysia, they attempted to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus did not allow them. So, passing by Mysia, they went down to Troas. And a vision appeared to Paul in the night: a man of Macedonia was standing there, urging him and saying, “Come over to Macedonia and help us.” And when Paul had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go on into Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them.Misalignment with the Holy Spirit brings brings contentionActs 7:51 (ESV) “You stiff-necked people, uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit.

I adjure you by God, do not torment me.” For he was saying to him, “Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!” And Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He replied, “My name is Legion, for we are many.” And he begged him earnestly not to send them out of the country.OPPOSITION IN THE SPIRIT: DeceptionRevelation 12:9 (ESV) And the great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world—he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.Ephesians 2:1–2 (ESV) And you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience—Saul/PaulJohn 16:2 (ESV) They will put you out of the synagogues.

And Saul approved of his execution. And there arose on that day a great persecution against the church in Jerusalem, and they were all scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles.Acts 8:3 (ESV) But Saul was ravaging the church, and entering house after house, he dragged off men and women and committed them to prison.Acts 9:1–6 (ESV) But Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest and asked him for letters to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to the Way, men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem. Now as he went on his way, he approached Damascus, and suddenly a light from heaven shone around him. And falling to the ground, he heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?” And he said, “Who are you, Lord?” And he said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. But rise and enter the city, and you will be told what you are to do.”Believing things that are not true is a spiritual issueThere are great limiters for believers - Revelation is neededOPPOSITION IN THE SPIRIT: Satan/SatanaGenesis 3:14–15 (ESV) The LORD God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this, cursed are you above all livestock and above all beasts of the field; on your belly you shall go, and dust you shall eat all the days of your life.

Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.OPPOSITION IN THE SPIRIT: Occultic PracticeNumbers 22:15–17 (ESV) Once again Balak sent princes, more in number and more honorable than these.

It's Friday, July 17th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Scottish man arrested for hate speech about pro-life politician's murder A 50-year-old man, pretending to be a woman, who works at the University of Aberdeen in Scotland, publicly celebrated the murder of former British Member of Parliament Ann Widdecombe, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Herbert, an Aberdeen web developer, who prefers to be called “Heather,” wrote, “Some good news for once. I hope it was an extremely painful death” and “I hope she was handcuffed to the bed as she screamed in agony.” Widdecombe, a pro-life advocate, served in the Parliament from 1987 to 2010. She endeared herself to Britons with her surprisingly popular appearances on the television shows Strictly Come Dancing and Celebrity Big Brother.  Herbert has now been charged for his bizarre hate speech as the investigation into her murder continues. Some have raised speculation that the arrest might be due less to Herbert's hate speech and more to do with what, if any, inside knowledge he might have about her murder. Widdecombe is the second murder of a high-profile pro-life politician in England this decade. Sir David Amess, who was a Member of Parliament for 38 years and Widdecombe's friend, was murdered at a local event in 2021 by Islamist Ali Harbi Ali. Arizona Senator admits to two extra-marital affairs U.S. Democratic Senator Ruben Gallego of Arizona, a married man and a potential 2028 presidential candidate, engaged in sexual relationships with at least two House staffers, reports the New York Post. The 46-year-old lawmaker admitted to the two extramarital affairs. In Exodus 20:14, God gave Moses the seventh of the Ten Commandments: “You shall not commit adultery.” Man, who spewed racial epithet, charged black NBC Today co-host Andrew Truelove allegedly stormed NBC's "Today" show at 9:00am Eastern on July 16th, lunged at anchor Craig Melvin, a black man, and called him the N-word, reports NBC News. He is now facing a slew of hate crime charges. Truelove, who is white and was unarmed, had entered a stairwell and made his way backstage near the dressing room. The staff and security rushed in -- and the intruder was ultimately detained and arrested. The incident was not captured during the broadcast. Nobody was hurt. Roughly 15 minutes afterwards, both Craig Melvin and Al Roker were on air. Neither hinted at the drama. AG nominee open to roll back Biden's mail-order Abortion Kill Pill During his confirmation hearing before the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee on July 15th, acting Attorney General Todd Blanche faced a range of questions from Republicans regarding the Abortion Kill Pill mifepristone, reports The Washington Stand. Republican Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri asked about the Trump administration's perspective. HAWLEY: “Joe Biden took away President Trump's safety restrictions on this chemical abortion drug. He instituted a mail order abortion policy. So, my state went to court to try to defend our state's laws. A number of other states, Republican states, did this. And of course, in the meantime, the president changed, thank goodness. And now we have President Trump. “But that means that that now we have the state of Missouri, a Republican state, along with a number of other conservative Republican states, are in court against a Republican administration, fighting over Joe Biden's abortion policy.” BLANCHE: “I share your concerns, as does this entire administration. We have the most pro-life president in history, and you are one of the most pro-life senators in this body. “We are not defending what Biden did, and will not. The FDA has a process that takes a year. They've committed to do it in significantly less time than a year. President Trump's administration, in its entirety, will protect the life of the unborn.” HAWLEY: “Presumably, you have no issue with President Trump's earlier rule, which had common sense safety restrictions. You had to see a doctor, get a prescription. There had to be a follow-up visit to see if there was any hemorrhaging. Those were in place before Biden gutted them. “Presumably, there's no issue with any of those.” BLANCHE: “I anticipate the Department [of Justice] would defend those rules.” HAWLEY: “Why not, while the FDA is doing its review, why not put President Trump's rules in place? They're good rules. Why not do that rather than leave in place these rules?” BLANCHE: “We want to get to a good result, consistent with President Trump's administrative directive and priorities. And we very much believe that the Biden rules were wrong.” Psalm 127:3 says, “Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from Him.” Senator Cruz: Comstock Act should prohibit Abortion Pill by mail And Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas also addressed the Abortion Kill Pill with Attorney General nominee Todd Blanche. CRUZ: “The Comstock Act provides that every article or thing designed or adapted or intended for producing abortion is declared to be non-mailable. I have to admit that statutory text to me looks quite straightforward. It is not subtle. It is not difficult. It is straightforward. “As you know, during the Biden administration, the Office of Legal Counsel issued an opinion concluding that those provisions generally do not prohibit mailing abortion drugs unless the sender intends them to be used unlawfully. Is that right?” BLANCHE: “Yes, that's correct.” CRUZ: “Now, [the] Office of Legal Counsel's opinions may be reconsidered when the Attorney General concludes they are inconsistent with the law. Is that right?” BLANCHE: “That is right.” CRUZ: “Will you commit to carefully reviewing that opinion to ensure that it faithfully reflects the actual statutory text that Congress enacted?” BLANCHE: “Yes.” CRUZ: “Will you commit that the Department [of Justice] will carefully evaluate every lawful action available to ensure the faithful enforcement of the Comstock Act and other federal pro-life acts?” BLANCHE: “Yes.” CRUZ: “I want to point out the real consequences of the Biden administration's lawless authorization of mail-order abortions. According to FDA reporting, the abortion pill has taken more than 3.7 million unborn lives, caused 24 maternal deaths -- moms are being killed -- and resulted in at least 4,195 adverse maternal reactions, including hemorrhage, excruciating abdominal pain, and severe, life-threatening infections. “The position of the Democrats now seems to be that women and teenage girls should be able to get mail-order abortions without a doctor being involved at all. And I will tell you, the death toll from that is horrific, and it needs to stop.” Once Blanche is voted out of the Judiciary Committee, he will need 51 votes of the 100 senators to be confirmed as President Trump's next U.S. Attorney General. Focus on the Family president Jim Daly to step down Nearly two decades after taking the helm of Focus on the Family following the departure of its founder, Jim Daly is preparing to hand the ministry to a new generation, reports The Christian Post. The president of one of America's most influential Evangelical groups announced this week that Focus has officially launched a nationwide search for its next leader, marking the beginning of what is expected to be an 18-month succession process ahead of the ministry's 50th anniversary in 2027. Unlike many recent leadership transitions in prominent Christian groups, this one is not being driven by scandal or internal upheaval. Rather, Focus on the Family is intentionally choosing to transition while it's healthy. Jim Daly said, "My core belief was it's good to get new faces, new energy, younger leadership in to speak to the 30-, 40-somethings about what they're facing with marriage and parenting. I'm going to be turning 65. It's time to start looking for the next-gen leadership. That's really the goal, and to do it well is the other goal." The search, being conducted with executive search firm FaithSearch Partners, will culminate in a vote by Focus' board of directors. Founded in 1977 by Christian psychologist and author Dr. James Dobson, Focus on the Family grew from a fledgling radio ministry into one of the most recognizable voices in American evangelicalism. Through its daily radio broadcasts, magazines, books, counseling services, and public policy advocacy, the Colorado Springs-based nonprofit became a defining force in conversations about marriage, parenting, religious liberty, and the sanctity of life. Today, the ministry reaches millions through radio, podcasts and digital media, employing roughly 750 people and overseeing an annual budget of $150 million. Worldview listeners weigh in from Texas and Alaska Liz Walker in Lubbock, Texas, wrote me and said, “I learned about your newscast from a Homeschool Mom blog. I love listening to it every weekday morning. I definitely get news that I would not get otherwise, including updates of the persecuted church and calls to action.  As a homeschool mom, I often want to do things, but feel like I am powerless.” And Thomas Williams in Wasilla, Alaska, wrote, “I just wanted to drop you a little note and say how much we value what you and your team are doing at The Worldview. My wife and I are raising eight kids -- six boys and two girls. We homeschool and use many items from Generations in our daily life. I pray that God continues to bless the work that you have begun.” 8 Worldview listeners gave $3,220 And finally, on Thursday night by 9:30pm Central, 8 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the six-member team behind The Worldview for another year.

We need to find 8 Worldview listeners who will pledge $100/month for 12 months or give a one-time gift of $1,200, 14 folks who will pledge $50/month or give a one-time gift of $600, and 28 listeners who will pledge $25/month or give a one-time gift of $300.

https://linktr.ee/csjosephWhat's up, you hackers? In this episode of the C.S. Joseph Podcast, we dive into the natural mistrust and enmity between Subconscious Developed (SD) men and Unconscious Developed (UD) men — and exactly how SD men can finally learn to trust the right UD men.SD men see UD men as dangerous “soldier ants” and live in fear of them coalescing into wolf packs. This dynamic fuels feminism, societal blame games, fatherlessness, and the erosion of strong male spaces. We break down the worker ant vs soldier ant psychology, the 300 Spartans at Thermopylae, Stoicism vs the Socratic method, why women are actually attracted to dangerous UD men, biblical parallels (Jacob, Leah & Rachel), and the critical difference between real wolf packs and lone wolves (plus why you must avoid “harmony hell”).If you're an SD man craving real growth, accountability, and iron sharpening iron instead of staying comfy and stagnant — this episode shows you the path forward.Timestamps:00:00 - Intro & Cat Cameo01:20 - The Dangerous Nature of UD Men & Why SD Men Play It Safe03:50 - Feminism as a Product of SDism & The Worker/Soldier Ant Dynamic06:30 - Historical Example: 300 Spartans at Thermopylae08:10 - Stoicism vs Socratic Method for Psychological Completeness09:50 - The Blame Game: Fatherlessness, Abortion & Boomer SD Psychosis12:00 - Bloodlines, Female Attraction to Dangerous Men & Biblical Parallels14:20 - The Key: Wolf Packs Over Lone Wolves (Avoid Harmony Hell)16:40 - What Wolf Packs Actually Provide: Accountability, Leadership & Earned Safety18:10 - Practical Advice: Rituals, Challenge Coins & Identifying Real UD Packs19:20 - Outro & Resources(19:36)Take the Octagram test to discover whether you're SD or UD: https://octagram.me (Note: Results are currently being updated for greater accuracy.

The pragmatic case for legal abortion entirely avoids any discussion of right and wrong. Instead, it argues that restricting abortion leads to increases in crime, poverty, and unwanted births. Even assuming that is true, does it matter? This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit abort73.substack.com

Scott Klusendorf wraps up his series on the academic thinkers driving pro-abortion thought. Giubilini and Minerva shocked the world by arguing that if abortion is permissible, so is killing newborns—because neither fetus nor newborn is an "actual person." David Boonin takes a different path, conceding that you are identical to the embryo you once were, yet denying you had a right to life back then. Learn how to answer both arguments—one based on identity, the other on rights—and see why either way the conclusion is deadly, on this episode of The Case for Life.Be sure to subscribe to The Case for Life Podcast on iTunes, Spotify, YouTube, or your favorite podcast app so you never miss a single episode.Follow Scott Klusendorf on Rumble, Youtube, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter to be kept up to date on everything God is doing through my pro-life work.Sign up for Pro-Life 101: 7 Days to Confident Engagement: https://scottklusendorf.com/prolife101/Book me for an event or partner with Life Training Institute as a donor at https://prolifetraining.com.

The radical Left loves to claim that mail-order abortion pills are all about female empowerment. But the reality is terrifying. By stripping away basic, in-person doctor visits, the FDA and Big Abortion handed a weapon straight to domestic abusers and rapists. Now, violent men can easily order these deadly drugs online to a P.O. Box and poison women without their knowledge or consent. In this episode, I am pulling back the curtain on how Big Abortion traded away women's safety to protect their bottom line. I am also sharing the horrifying, real-life stories of the women who paid the price for this reckless policy.   Introduction- 00:00 FDA Knew it was Dangerous - 00:45 Before Mail-Order Abortion - 02:49 The Abortion Industry Re-Brand - 05:39 The Truth Comes Out - 07:20   Watch Full Episode HERE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIDZYHB1VeA Follow me - I'm chronically online Instagram https://www.instagram.com/kristanmercerhawkins/ X https://x.com/KristanHawkins Facebook https://www.facebook.com/HawkinsKristan/ TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@kristanmercerhawkins

The Title X Family Planning Program was created in 1970 to fund reproductive health and contraceptive services and remains the federal government's only dedicated source of family planning funding. Since his first term in office, Trump and his administration have repeatedly targeted the Title X Program, most recently by changing the application process for funding. Clare Coleman, President and CEO of the National Family Planning and Reproductive Health Association (NFPRHA), joins us to talk about what the latest funding announcement means for Title X and its grant recipients, and the lawsuit that NFPRHA, the ACLU, and FHCCP are pursuing against the Trump administration's blatant contradiction of the Title X statute. Title X-funded programs provide contraceptive services, STI and pregnancy testing, and other crucial preventative and reproductive health services. The new funding announcement changes the process of applying for Title X grants, undermining Title X's statutory mission by giving political appointees the power to decide who even gets considered for funding. This politicization of family planning resources promotes the President's narrow agenda and poses a threat to the millions who rely on Title X-funded clinics and resources. For more information, check out That Aged Well: https://pod.link/1446333312Support the showFollow Us on Social: Twitter: @rePROsFightBack Instagram: @reprosfbFacebook: rePROs Fight Back Bluesky: @reprosfightback.bsky.socialBuy rePROs Merch: Bonfire store Email us: jennie@reprosfightback.comRate and Review on Apple PodcastThanks for listening & keep fighting back!

Angela Weszely is the founder and CEO of ProGrace and the author of Becoming ProGrace: Expanding the Abortion Conversation Beyond Life Versus Choice. Twenty-one years ago she took a job at a Christian pregnancy center in Chicago and immediately felt the tension between what the organization said it believed and how it actually treated women. That tension became a decade-long journey that led her to found ProGrace. In this conversation, Angela and Markus explore what it looks like for the church to actually resemble Jesus in how it responds to abortion and unintended pregnancy.This Episode's Highlights Include:Angela's journey from a legalistic upbringing into leading a Christian pregnancy organizationThe four theological frameworks Christians get wrong about abortion: equal value and dignity, political identity over Christian identity, grace, and shared responsibilityWhy only 7% of women, and 16% of church-going women, ever approach a church before an abortion decisionThe narrative that shames women and lets partners off the hookWhat the story of the woman caught in adultery in John 8 actually reveals about grace and systemic injusticeWhat it means to be the beloved, and why that identity changes how we respond to people in crisisThe objectification hiding inside the abortion debateRelevant Resources and Links:Becoming ProGrace: Expanding the Abortion Conversation Beyond Life Versus Choice, by Angela WeszelyProGraceSend me a text!

A contrast allergy note on the chart can trigger delays, unnecessary steroids and avoided scans, yet often these labels are not clinically justified. A new practice article in CMAJ, “Hypersensitivity reactions to iodinated contrast media,” examines how the labels arise and why the standard premedication rests on contrast agents that are no longer used.Dr. Samira Jeimy, an associate professor and program director of the division of clinical immunology and allergy at Western University and an author of the article, separates adverse reactions into Type A, the dose-dependent flushing, nausea and vasovagal symptoms anyone can get, and Type B, the bizarre ones from anaphylaxis to delayed reactions such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome. She notes the weak literature behind corticosteroid premedication is based on older high-osmolality agents that modern imaging has left behind.Dr. Amit Katyan, a radiologist at the Ottawa Hospital and its lead for CT, has built a protocol that works back through the history for signs the reaction affected airway, breathing or circulation, or required epinephrine, an emergency visit or admission. For mild and moderate reactions his team skips steroids and switches to a contrast agent the patient has not had before, an approach he says the guidelines favour.For physicians, the first move is to reverse-engineer the label rather than act on it, since many notes describe an expected physiological reaction rather than a true allergy. A necessary contrast study should not be delayed for steroid premedication when the history points to a mild reaction and another  agent can be substituted.For more information from our sponsor, go to md.ca/lifeplanComments or questions?

Medical doctors don't always train in the states where they end up working. And for OB-GYNs in particular, that can mean navigating conflicting state laws around which procedures are allowed. Democrat U.S. Rep. Kelly Morrison is an OB-GYN who represents Minnesota's 3rd Congressional District. She has introduced a bill that would provide funding to help medical residents in states with strict abortion bans travel for some of their training. For more on the proposal, MPR News host Nina Moini talked with Dr. Erin Stevens, legislative chair of Minnesota's section of the American College of OB-GYNs, or ACOG.

It's Witness Wednesday! Todd is at Georgia Tech and engages with students to share the hope of Christ. Segment 1 • Todd asks Arvin to rank smoking, pornography, abortion, and hooking up—which answer reveals just how dramatically moral values have shifted? • Why would someone say smoking is worse than abortion? Todd presses beneath the surface to uncover the worldview behind the answer. • Todd then meets a Hindu student whose moral instincts surprise him before challenging the idea that all religions are basically the same. Segment 2 • Can "my truth" and Jesus' exclusive claims both be true? Todd walks a Hindu student through the collision between relativism and Christianity. • What happens when the Ten Commandments become the standard instead of personal opinion? • Todd explains why the gospel is radically different from every other religion—and why that difference matters eternally. Segment 3 • Todd questions three Georgia Tech students who defend pornography, reject objective morality, and insist they're still "good people." • If pornography is harmless, why would you be embarrassed to watch it with your parents? Todd exposes what conscience may already know. • Can someone honestly call themselves good after admitting to lying, lust, stealing, and blasphemy? The conversation takes an unexpectedly personal turn. Segment 4 • Todd challenges the three students with the question everyone must answer: What should a perfectly just God do with guilty people? • A Jehovah's Witness listening nearby joins the discussion, leading to a respectful but direct conversation about hell, the deity of Christ, and salvation. • What happens if you've believed in the wrong Jesus? Todd ends with a sobering question about eternity that neither side can ignore. ___ Thanks for listening! Wretched Radio would not be possible without the financial support of our Gospel Partners.

Pope Leo XIV just appointed a German bishop who supported same-sex blessings, gender ideology, and LGBT initiatives. The same Vatican that celebrated that appointment has now imposed canonical sanctions on the Society of Saint Pius X, sanctions that require a more demanding process for lifting than the procedure for Catholics who have procured an abortion. The comparison is stark. The priorities are exposed.The inconsistencies that have left traditional Catholics reeling are now being seen. John-Henry Westen also investigates a widely circulated letter attributed to Bishop Fulton Sheen criticizing the SSPX. While the letter may be genuine, the host argues it likely does not reflect Sheen's own thinking, citing historical inaccuracies, Sheen's declining health, and the possibility that staff drafted much of his correspondence.The Vatican's treatment of the SSPX is not about discipline. It is about eliminating the Traditional Latin Mass and the communities that preserve it. The episcopal consecrations were a practical necessity. And the faithful who stood in the rain in Écône know it. The question is whether the rest of the Church will see the pattern before it is too late. A bishop who blesses sin is celebrated. A bishop who preserves Tradition is excommunicated. The Church has turned against itself.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

“Why do we lose people raised pro-life to the pro-choice side?” This question opens a discussion on the complexities of belief and autonomy in the abortion debate. Other topics include the argument that bodily autonomy supersedes the right to life and the moral implications of abortion in cases of rape or incest. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 03:25 – Why do we lose people raised pro-life to the prochoice side? 11:10 – I think that bodily autonomy supersedes the right to life. 17:38 – I am pro-choice because we should be able to allow women to abort in the case of rape or incest. 29:15 – Obviously you think abortion is murder. Do you think women who have had abortions should be charged with the same crimes as murderers? 44:25 – This issue is what drove me away from the Catholic faith. Until the zygote is viable as a human being, it is not a human being.

Abortion is one of the defining moral issues of our time—but how well do we actually understand its history, science, and cultural impact? In this episode of Truth Changes Everything, Dr. Jeff Myers sits down with Dr. John Ferrer, founder of the Abortion Museum, to explore the facts, history, and worldview questions surrounding abortion. Rather than relying on political slogans or cultural narratives, Dr. Ferrer explains why abortion deserves a museum and why understanding its history is essential for anyone seeking truth. Together, they discuss: Why abortion deserves its own museum The history of abortion and its connection to eugenics and scientific racism What science reveals about pregnancy and human development Common myths and misconceptions surrounding abortion Why abortion is more than a political issue How Christians can speak about abortion with both conviction and compassion What the church can learn from the stories of women and families affected by abortion Whether you are pro-life, pro-choice, or simply seeking to understand the issue more thoughtfully, this conversation offers historical context, scientific insight, and a deeper discussion about human dignity, personhood, and truth.
