Welcome to another thought-provoking episode of Hearts of Oak, where today we delve deep into the heart of one of the most contentious debates of our time: the right to life. In this episode, we're joined by a distinguished guest, a medical doctor and researcher who has become a pivotal figure in the UK's pro-life movement.   Prepare for an insightful conversation as we explore his transformative journey from a pro-choice stance to becoming an ardent advocate for the unborn, driven by scientific evidence and ethical reasoning. We'll discuss the current cultural landscape in the UK, where despite a prevailing pro-choice sentiment, a new wave of youthful pro-life activism is emerging, challenging the status quo.   This episode promises to unravel: The ethical and scientific arguments for when life begins. The role of religious beliefs in the pro-life movement. Why there's a growing disconnect between UK law and public opinion on abortion. How the pro-life movement is evolving, engaging with media, politics, and church leaders to drive change. Join us as we navigate through these complex issues, understanding the motivations behind one man's mission to change hearts and minds, and why he believes now more than ever, the pro-life message needs to be heard.   This is not just a debate; it's a call to action, a challenge to think, and a journey into the heart of what it means to champion life in all its vulnerability and potential.   Tune in, and let's challenge the tide together. *Special thanks to Bosch Fawstin for recording our intro/outro on this podcast.

This week in the UK, discussions are taking place in Parliament around various aspects of the Criminal Justice Bill. One of the most contentious areas is around a couple of tabled amendments* that would remove offences that make it illegal for a woman to perform a self-abortion at any point through to birth. There's lots to unpack about the potential decriminalisation of abortion, the ethical questions around a fetus's right to life and a woman's choice. Even if we can agree on when life begins how do we navigate the rights of the mother and the unborn child. Andy Kind is joined by Lois McLatchie, Senior Legal Communications Officer at ADF, and Ellie Lee, Professor of Family and Parenting Research, SSPSSR, the Director for Centre for Parenting Culture Studies and the co-author of Parenting Culture Studies. *Since this show was recorded the proposed amendments discussed in this show have been withdrawn. The matter has been postponed to the Report stage of the Criminal Justice Bill. However, it is anticipated that similar amendments will be reintroduced during the floor debate in the House of Commons, where all Members of Parliament are expected to vote on the matter.

EA - The effective altruist case for pro-life/anti-abortion advocacy by Calum Miller

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: The effective altruist case for pro-life/anti-abortion advocacy, published by Calum Miller on November 13, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Summary There is a good case that abortion is morally impermissible - or at least there is significant moral uncertainty. Even if these arguments fail, abortion could still be a matter of serious concern for EAs (e.g. because fetuses could have significant but not full moral status, or because there are ways to reduce abortions without punishing women for getting them). Put another way, even if one believes abortion is permissible, it likely remains a comparable problem to any problem of infant mortality - but with even more lost life-years, and occurring on a much larger scale than infant mortality. This is a very important problem, given the life lost and the scale of the problem - tens of millions of abortions around the world each year. Outside the US, the problem is virtually unchallenged - and even in the US, there are high-impact sectors with minimal anti-abortion sentiment or efforts. The issue is more tractable than one might think, for various reasons: it is a highly neglected area in most of the world; there are effective and popular policy interventions even in the most pro-choice countries, but even more so in more pro-life countries; progress can be made even without policy interventions; even small reductions in the abortion rate save huge numbers of lives; many people are open to changing their minds about abortion and can do so in a relatively short time; etc. If you are one of the ~15% of religious EAs, you probably have even more reason to be convinced. Sex education and contraception may or may not work depending on the case. Introduction I realise this is a sensitive topic. In the developed world around 1 in 3 women have an abortion in their lifetime, meaning it is likely people reading this post have been, or will be, personally invested and affected by the topic of abortion. Please forgive me if I fail to address it in a sufficiently sensitive way, and know that this was not my intention. There is, of course, so much more to say about this, but I wanted to try and keep the post relatively short. I wrote most of this up a couple of years ago but never got round to posting it until Ariel Simnegar's post, which encouraged me to refine it a little and share here. Though I've always been on the fringes of EA and certainly don't consider myself to be up to date on EA thinking, it was EA thinking that originally made me passionate about this area some years ago, subsequently focusing my academic research on it. I think this is an important topic for effective altruists to wrestle with, for various reasons: a) if I am right, this one of the most important, neglected, and tractable problems facing humans in the near term; b) as Ariel Simnegar previously pointed out, effective altruists have typically been pretty open to considering neglected causes and particularly neglected communities - animals, future people, etc; c) so much popular discourse around abortion is hostile and badly reasoned, and effective altruists with a common interest in improving the world can improve the calibre of conversation a lot; d) effective altruists have also been open to the idea that morality can involve serious sacrifices of one's own welfare (even the permanent sacrifice of one's organs, for some EAs). Inevitably, as a blog post this discussion will have to cut out the large majority of relevant literature (especially on moral considerations), but I have tried to collect a load of the most commonly asked questions (along with my answers) at https://calumsblog.com/abortion-qa/. Please do get in touch if you would like further references/resources on these questions. The first-order ethics of abortion Arguably, for moral uncertai...

Perhaps the most heated, contentious, and difficult topic in Western World today is the topic of abortion. For those in favor of it, it is a part of basic reproductive rights and necessary for ensuring full equality of women. For those against, it is the slaughter of unborn life on the altar of convenience. Which position is right? Stereotypically, the church has sided with the pro-life camp, and many today continue in that tradition. Dr. Calum Miller is one such person.

Get ready for a riveting episode of Unbelievable? part of our ongoing series Rights of Life and Death. Today in The Abortion Debate:  Life, Equality, and Choice, we're diving headfirst into the contentious and thought-provoking topic of abortion. What does it means to stay that life begins?  What would it take for the fetus or the child to have a right to life, and for this to outweigh the mother's right to choice?  How do we determine moral value? It's a debate that strikes at the very core of life, equality, and personal choice. Brace yourselves as we navigate the delicate balance between the rights of the child and the rights of the mother.   Joining us on this electrifying debate led by moderator Roger Bolton are two extraordinary guests. First, we have Ann Furedi, a leading global pro-choice advocate for almost 40 years,  who worked for 17 years as CEO of British Pregnancy Advisory Service. She has written extensively on the ethics of abortion and was awarded an Honorary Doctorate in Social Sciences by the University of Kent.  Her groundbreaking book, 'The Moral Case for Abortion: A Defense of Reproductive Choice,' lays out the moral arguments empowering women to make decisions about their pregnancies.    But that's not all. Presenting the Christian worldview and opposing abortion on demand is Dr. Calum Miller, an NHS doctor and an unwavering pro-life advocate. With a medical degree from the prestigious University of Oxford and a deep understanding of philosophy and biblical studies, Dr. Miller brings a unique insight into the intricacies of abortion policy in practice. He's here to challenge our assumptions and shed light on the moral value of the unborn.   In this high-voltage discussion, we'll explore the burning questions that lie at the heart of the abortion debate. When does life truly begin? Is there ever a justifiable reason to take another life? How do we assign moral value to the unborn? And are there conditions that would tip the scales in favour of granting the fetus a right to life that supersedes a mother's right to choice?   Hold on tight as we unpack the very definitions of 'pro-life' and 'pro-choice' and their profound implications for the beginning of life, human equality, and personal autonomy. We won't shy away from the tough questions, including the role of women's choice and the intersection of abortion with women's equality. And for those wondering if men should have a voice in this conversation, we'll address that too. Prepare for an exhilarating, thought-provoking, and mind-expanding discussion. Tune in to this week's episode of Unbelievable as we embark on a quest to unravel the intricate threads of the abortion debate.

Recorded on 8 December 2022 for ICMDA Webinars. Dr Peter Saunders chairs a webinar and Q&A with Dr Calum Miller. Even among pro-life people, there is often debate about what really stops abortions from happening. Is it best to pass laws protecting unborn children and women from abortion directly, or is sex education and family planning the real solution? What about welfare to practically provide for women in difficult financial situations? In this webinar Dr Miller summarises the empirical evidence on how best to save lives. Dr Calum Miller is a medical doctor based in the UK, and a Research Associate at the University of Oxford. He is also the International Director for Canopy Global Foundation, an organisation dedicated to combating violence against women, human trafficking and abortion globally. He speaks regularly on mainstream media and to parliamentarians around the world on how to protect both women and children from abortion. He holds a Master's Degree in Biblical Studies.

Recorded on 5 May 2022 for ICMDA Webinars. Dr Peter Saunders chairs a discussion with Dr Calum Miller. The abortion debate is often seen as a dilemma between the wellbeing of the mother and the wellbeing of the child: for pro-lifers, the child's right to life outweighs the mother's right to choice. In fact, the empirical evidence suggests that abortion has, on the whole, been detrimental not only to unborn lives but also to women generally. In this webinar Dr Calum Miller explains how women are likewise harmed by abortion and why Christians can offer a better way. Dr Calum Miller is a medical doctor based in the UK, and a research associate at the University of Oxford, researching abortion ethics and policy. He has spoken widely on national media, and across the world to professional groups and politicians on the harms of abortion and the need to protect both mother and child. He has taken part in numerous debates, including with the former CEO of the UK's leading private abortion provider. He has published on a wide range of topics in peer-reviewed journals and won prizes from the University of Oxford and the Royal College of Psychiatrists for his work on medical ethics.

When it comes to abortion, many of us may hesitant about the best way to engage faithfully. Pro-choice and pro-life advocates can be loud, combative and assertive. In many countries, the issue is extremely divisive. And yet, while keeping in mind that the battle is the Lord's and that He is sovereign, we are called to speak truth and justice in the public sphere with humility and grace. In part one of a two-part interview, Didomi podcast co-hosts Manal El Tayyar and Matthew Jones ask medical doctor and ethicist Calum Miller some difficult questions to help equip us to better engage on the topic of abortion. It is our hope that this episode and the next one equip us to understand what roles we, as a church and as Christians, need to play to care for women who are faced with one of the most difficult choices in life. Dr Miller graduated from the University of Oxford Medical School in 2015, and currently works as a medical doctor in the UK. He holds a Master's Degree in Biblical Studies and teaches Philosophy at the University of Oxford, where his research focuses on abortion policy in practice. Based in Lebanon, episode co-host Manal El Tayar is the Regional Fragile States and Peacebuilding Advisor with TearFund. Based in Geneva, episode co-host Matthew Jones is a human rights advocate working to strengthen civil society space across Europe and the South Caucasus.

Comisión de Justicia debate temporalidad de la interrupción voluntaria del embarazo en caso de violación

La Comisión de Justicia, previo a tomar una decisión en torno a uno de los nudos críticos del proyecto de Ley para Garantizar el Derecho a la Interrupción Voluntaria del Embarazo en caso de Violación, como es la temporalidad, escuchó a varios profesionales y expertos, quienes desde lo técnico y la evidencia científica presentaron sus observaciones sobre el tema. Syaina Pandzic, médico pediatra, expresó su criterio en contra la interrupción del embarazo en casos de violación. Argumentó que los estudios y avances científicos defienden la vida desde la concepción. No obstante, reconoció que el embarazo en niñas menores a 15 años tiene mayor riesgo, pero que se puede solucionar cualquier complicación. La doctora Karina Marín, resaltó la apertura de la Comisión de Justicia de escuchar las diversas visiones, en ejercicio de diálogo ciudadano y reflexión que es uno de los pilares fundamentales de la democracia, a la vez consideró que no está de acuerdo en fijar plazos para la interrupción del embarazo. Sostuvo que la ley que se debate es una oportunidad no solo para la reparación histórica de personas violentadas sexualmente durante décadas, sino para evitar que las mujeres continúen perdiendo sus vidas en prácticas clandestinas. Recordó que ya en 1938 se despenalizó el aborto en el caso de personas con discapacidad mental y durante 80 años nadie ha criticado esta norma. Calum Miller, médico graduado en la Escuela de Medicina de Oxford, afirmó que hay evidencia médica que el aborto tardío es menos seguro. Estudios demuestran que mientras más tarde es el aborto, mayor es la tasa de mortalidad y es inseguro a partir de los cinco meses, añadió. También informó que la mayor parte de los países europeos han establecido como límite para la interrupción del embarazo las 12 semanas y que los bebés pueden sentir dolor a las 10 semanas y la interacción social puede darse a las 12 semanas, a la vez que presentó experiencias en otros países, así como los problemas ocasionados por el aborto tardío y el embarazo no deseado. De su lado, Octavio Miranda, médico ginecólogo, sugirió considerar que en el país más de tres millones de personas están en el rango de 10 a 19 años de edad y que cinco millones de mujeres están en edad fértil, así como los índices de violencia de género, los abortos inseguros y muerte materna. Tras detallar las diversas etapas del embarazo, sostuvo que es necesario garantizar el bienestar de las personas, más aún si son vulnerables o con discapacidad, a la vez que expresó su preocupación porque 8 de cada 10 embarazos en niñas de 14 años son producto de violación y que según la Fiscalía en el país se presentan 11 denuncias de violación cada día. La atención en la salud es un derecho, no un privilegio, concluyó. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/hechosecuador/message

At the stroke of midnight on Friday, 31 January 2020, Brussels time, the United Kingdom formally left from the European Union. Setting in motion a frantic 11-month transition period in which to negotiate everything from a trade deal to new rules on travel. Long anticipated and highly contested, “Brexit” has captured the mind and imagination of not only British politics, but society for the last four years. With Brexit semi-delivered, the Prime Minister Boris Johnson must now chart new waters and carve out a new role for Britain in the highly uncertain global political economy.  On this episode of A Look at the Issues, our host, Suta Kavari, was in Brussels talking to members of the public and Members of the European Parliament about what a post-Brexit future looks like for the European continent. Suta spoke to Svenja Hahn, German MEP for Free Democratic Party, and a member of the Renew Europe alliance. Back in Oxford, Suta spoke to Calum Miller about the broader implications of Brexit for the UK and hopes for the future. Calum was the former Principal Private Secretary to former Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg, and now serves as the Chief Operating Officer at the Blavatnik School of Government.

In episode 19, Dr. Calum Miller and I complete our discussion of the Prior Probability of the Resurrection. Episode 18 laid a lot of groundwork for 19. Go listen to it if you haven't! In episode 19, we get a real understanding of what it takes to form an accurate prior probability for Jesus' Resurrection. We address several objections like, "dead people tend to stay dead, so in all likelihood, Jesus stayed dead too, " "miracles almost never happen, so the Resurrection probably didn’t happen," and "any naturalistic theory is going to be more probable than God raising Jesus from the dead." All are shown to be lacking. Toward the end we address some of the concerns that historians like Mike Licona have against using Bayes Theorem in historical arguments.

Over the next two episodes, Dr. Calum Miller and I discuss the Prior Probability of the Resurrection. "What the heck is that?" you might be asking yourself. Skeptical arguments against the resurrection of Jesus, for example, the objection that dead people usually stay dead or that miracles never happen, are really arguments that Jesus’ resurrection is supremely unlikely before we look at any of the evidence. Episodes 18 and 19 take these objections to task. Is Jesus' Resurrection all that unlikely before we look at any evidence?

Being a conservative Christian in the United Kingdom is a very different experience from being such in the United States, to say nothing of setting out to develop a career as a young apologist. Calum Miller is a recently-graduated physician from the University of Oxford, and an academic philosopher who has a strong interest in Christian apologetics. In this short interview, Dr. Miller shares some of his thoughts about growing up in a culture were Christianity is comfortable only if it’s largely ignored, why two of the Four Horsemen hailed originally from England, and what is the best possible future for the Church both in the United Kingdom, as well as in the United States.

I received an email out of the blue a few months back from a guy named Dan Ray. He had gotten my information from Ezra Boggs, who runs the Bible and Beer Consortium here in Dallas and Fort Worth. Dan had seen me participate in a debate with Calum Miller on behalf of the BBC, and I had mentioned a few things about the Cosmos that got him thinking. He mentioned that he's working on a Master's degree in Apologetics from Houston Baptist University, and that he had been busy researching the intersection of cosmology, theology, and fantasy literature. I suggested that this might be another good opportunity for an Inquisition, and our conversation was so engrossing that it ended up spanning three separate episodes.

Calum Miller is a Christian medical student at Oxford with an interest in philosophy.  He chats with atheist Paul Orton and agnostic Steve (aka Non Stamp Collector). They both define their atheism as a mere "lack of belief in God" rather than a positive belief that "there is no God".  Why the distinction?
