Join Aaron Renn as he interviews Leah Libresco Sargeant, author of The Dignity of Dependence: A Feminist Manifesto. In this thought-provoking episode, Leah explores a bold vision of feminism rooted not in independence, but in the inherent dignity of human dependence. From kitchen counter heights to breast pumps, investment banking hours to factory design, they discuss how modern systems often demand standardization at the expense of human flourishing, especially for women and families. Leah challenges the myth of autonomy, celebrates the interdependence of men and women, and calls for workplaces, communities, and tools that serve real people—not abstract, interchangeable workers. Whether you're a parent, a policymaker, or just tired of the grind, this conversation offers fresh insight into building a society that honors care, weakness, and mutual need.CHAPTERS:(00:00 - Introduction)(02:45 - The Hyattsville Catholic Community)(04:35 - STEM to Storytelling: How Math Shaped a Writer)(05:40 - What Is The Dignity of Dependence?)(06:25 - Why Call It a Feminist Manifesto?)(07:44 - Kitchen Counters, Breast Pumps, and Industrial Design)(09:36 - Critiquing Modernity: Tools vs. Human Needs)(11:09 - Redesigning Work for Parents (Not Just the Elite))(13:24 - The Bruderhof Model: Factories Built for Community)(14:17 - Efficiency vs. Human Good: Where to Make Trade-Offs)(16:33 - Middle-Class Flexibility & Real-World Parenting)(18:31 - No Going Back: Living Thoughtfully in Modernity)(20:36 - Men, Strength, and the Call to Protect)(24:43 - Men's Need: To Be Needed)(27:28 - Autonomy: The Modern Myth of the Untouchable Self)(29:56 - Abortion, Euthanasia, and the Logic of Dependence)(31:39 - Final Thought: Weakness Is Not Failure)LEAH LIBRESCO SARGEANT LINKS:
Kelsi Sheren survived war — but what she experienced after coming home was far darker.In this episode, Kelsi exposes the horrifying reality of Canada's MAiD program: a system offering euthanasia not just to veterans, but to the disabled, the mentally ill, those battling depression, and — in proposed expansions — even minors. Instead of offering treatment, care, or hope, the government is quietly offering death.She explains how a program that was “only for the terminally ill” rapidly expanded into a system that targets vulnerable people… and why similar policies are now being discussed in the United States.We also break down:What war is actually like: the trauma, the guilt, the invisible woundsWhy veterans are being offered euthanasia instead of healthcareHow disabled citizens and the depressed became eligibleHow minors could be nextThe financial and political incentives to choose death over treatmentPsychedelic therapy and breakthrough treatments that actually heal PTSD and brain injuryThis isn't just a Canadian problem.This is a warning.If the public stays silent, this will spread — and it's already being proposed in America.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
We continue our examination of the fifth commandment, taking a closer look at the sin of euthanasia. Fr. Mike emphasizes that whatever the motive, the action of ending a life in order to eliminate suffering is still a sin. He also emphasizes that palliative care, however, is an important and special form of charity and love. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2276-2279.

It's Wednesday, October 22nd, A.D. 2025. 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 Jonathan Clark Columbian pastor threatened to leave community Christian Solidarity Worldwide reports a pastor in Colombia is under threat of forced displacement. Pastor Aristides Chocue has worked with the Nasa Evangelical Christian Church in the southwestern part of the country since 2022. Now, an indigenous council is ordering him to leave the community with his family or face punishment. Despite threats of violence, the pastor said, “I am not afraid. The church tells me to continue, not to leave them. I plan to continue working and trusting in God.” The South American nation is ranked 46th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most difficult countries to be a Christian. 2 Timothy 3:10-12 says, “You, however, have followed my teaching, my conduct, my aim in life, my faith, my patience, my love, my steadfastness, my persecutions and sufferings … which persecutions I endured; yet from them all, the Lord rescued me. Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.” Trump threatens Columbia with tariffs over illegal drugs Speaking of Colombia, U.S. President Donald Trump said Sunday that he would raise tariffs on the country and cancel subsidies. President Trump accused Colombia of being complicit in the illicit drug trade, calling their president “an illegal drug leader.” This continues tensions between the U.S. and Latin American countries over the drug trade. President Trump has ordered multiple strikes on alleged drug boats coming from Colombia's neighbor, Venezuela. Uruguay first Latin American country to legalize euthanasia In other South American news, Uruguay became the first Latin American country to legalize euthanasia by parliamentary vote last Wednesday. President Yamandú Orsi, a left-wing leader, promised to sign the bill. Colombia and Ecuador have already decriminalized euthanasia through Supreme Court decision. And Chile's left-wing president is also pushing for the legalization of this form of killing. Canadian doctors killed 90,000 patients through legalized euthanasia In North America, euthanasia deaths in Canada rose to about 16,500 last year. That's 5% of all deaths in the country. Canadian doctors have killed nearly 90,000 people since the country legalized euthanasia in 2016. In many cases, the reason given for the assisted suicide was simply “frailty.” Planned Parenthood closes 7 California killing centers In the United States, Planned Parenthood announced it is closing seven locations in California. The abortion giant has announced the closure of 50 locations across America so far this year. The closures come as Republicans push for the defunding of Planned Parenthood. For example, President Trump's “One Big Beautiful Bill” defunds the abortion giant for a year. Bible sales up 36% following Charlie Kirk's assassination Following the tragic murder of Christian activist Charlie Kirk last month, Bible sales have surged. In September, 2.4 million Bibles were sold, up 36% compared to the same month last year. Interest in the Bible rose especially among the 18-to-34-year-old demographic, the age group that Kirk often engaged with on college campuses. His widow, Erika Kirk, commented on this spiritual awakening during her speech at his memorial service in Phoenix, Arizona last month. Listen. ERIKA KIRK: “This past week, we saw people open a Bible for the first time in a decade. We saw people pray for the first time since they were children. We saw people go to a church service for the first time in their entire lives.” (applause) The late Susannah Spurgeon sent 200,000 Christian books to needy pastors And finally, today is the anniversary of the death of Susannah Spurgeon. Susannah was born on January 15, 1832 and died on October 22, 1903. In 1856, she married the prominent English Baptist preacher, Charles Haddon Spurgeon. They were married for 36 years until Charles' death in 1892. The couple had twin sons -- Charles Jr. and Thomas in 1857, both of whom grew up to preach the Gospel. By the late 1860s though, Susannah became chronically ill. Nevertheless, she continued her steadfast support for her husband's ministry. Susannah also started a Book Fund ministry for needy pastors, sending out over 200,000 volumes by the time of her death. Susannah's great-great-granddaughter, Susie Spurgeon Cochrane, wrote of her, “When there were good times, she gave [God] the praise, and when there were trials, she fell on her knees before Him. Again and again she went to the Fountain of Living Water and drank deeply from it. Then, and only then, was she able to do all that she did in her life.” In John 7:37-38, Jesus said, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” Read more about the life and legacy of this remarkable woman in the biography entitled Susie: The Life and Legacy of Susannah Spurgeon, wife of Charles H. Spurgeon. Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, October 22nd, in the year of our Lord 2025.

Earlier this month, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a law that made assisted dying permanent in the state, after an initial law was passed in 2016. At the time, the change was a turning point in the approach to end-of-life care for people with terminal illnesses. Almost 10 years on, how have views changed on the practice? Has it become more accepted among doctors? And has assisted dying been resorted to unnecessarily, as many critics feared? FRANCE 24's Pierrick Leurent reports, with Wassim Cornet.
Dr. Dave Miller, DVM, PhD has a new chapter on euthanasia in zoological settings in the forthcoming second edition of Veterinary Euthanasia Techniques, edited by Kathleen A. Cooney, DVM. In the chapter he and his co-author, yours truly, try to describe the additional pressures and considerations on euthanasia in public display situations. It is no longer enough to simply be aware of the latest methods of humane euthanasia across exotic species. Given all the legal, ethical, coworker, regulatory, and public sentiment perspectives in the age of social media, it is more important than ever for zoos and aquariums to adopt a wholistic approach to quality of life assessments and end of life decision-making.

When a society celebrates the slaughter of unborn children, it's only a matter of time before the violence spreads to other vulnerable groups. So it's no surprise that same self-described humanists who brought us abortion and infanticide have set their sights on the elderly, the sick, and the disabled. On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, we take a look at the troubling connections between abortion and euthanasia.

Doctors often use euphemisms to dance around the 'C' word. But for oncologist Dr Ranjana Srivastava, how you talk to someone with cancer goes beyond "shadows, lumps and lesions". It's all about compassion and clarity, even when honesty is difficult.Ranjana Srivastava was a young doctor in regional Australia, accompanying her consultant on his late night rounds when she heard a patient say something that stopped Ranjana in her tracks.It was in that moment that she finally knew what her speciality was going to be: oncology. Ranjana now works in Melbourne as an oncologist and an author.She often writes about the need for clarity and compassion in doctor-patient conversations, to deliver good news, bad news and everything that falls between.Ranjana had her own experience of being at the receiving end of devastating news when she was pregnant with twins.Ranjana has carried the lesson she received from her own doctor forward, into her work as an oncologist, where bearing witness to the attitudes of her patients has changed the way she sees the world and has helped put her own life in perspective.Further informationRanjana's latest book, Every Word Matters, is published by Simon & Schuster.She has published seven books about cancer and end of life care, including A Better Death, Tell Me the Truth, Dying for a Chat, So It's Cancer: Now What, and After Cancer: A Guide to Living Well.Ranjana also writes a regular column for The Guardian.In 2017, Ranjana was awarded an Order of Australia medal for her work as an oncologist and in improving doctor-patient communication.This episode of Conversations was produced by Meggie Morris. Executive producer is Nicola Harrison.It explores cancer, oncology, the big C, cancerland, breast cancer, bowel cancer, how to survive cancer, incurable cancer, end of life care, palliative care, honest doctors, refusing treatment, chemotherapy, radiation, how to be honest with patients, doctor patient relationship, geriatric oncology, India, migration, motherhood, late term miscarriage, pregnancy, writing, books, origin story, journalism.To binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.

In the final episode of our comprehensive healthcare planning series, Kirsten and Ariana tackle one of the most misunderstood areas of healthcare planning: life-ending decisions. This episode cuts through the confusion to deliver clear, factual information about California's End of Life Option Act, the strict requirements for assisted suicide, how passive and active euthanasia differ, and why many people don't actually qualify for the options they think exist. You'll also learn how California compares to other states and what alternatives exist internationally. Whether you're planning for yourself or helping a loved one understand their options, this episode provides essential information about one of life's most difficult decisions. Knowledge is power—especially when it comes to maintaining control over your final chapter. Time-stamped Show Notes: 0:00 Introduction 1:09 Three categories of life-ending decisions explained: assisted suicide, passive euthanasia, active euthanasia 2:12 Passive euthanasia defined - withdrawal/withholding of life-sustaining treatment (legal in California) 3:07 What is active euthanasia? Many people don't realize it's not legal in the United States 3:39 California's End of Life Option Act (2016) - medical aid in dying requirements 4:49 Strict eligibility requirements: terminal illness (6 months or less), California residency, cognitive capacity, physical ability 5:02 The three-request requirement: two oral requests 48 hours apart, plus one written, witnessed request 6:29 Physician responsibilities and the right to decline participation 7:35 California vs. Oregon comparison - residency requirements and waiting periods 9:37 Geographic distribution of assisted suicide laws across the United States 10:29 Active euthanasia discussion - the dementia dilemma and client concerns 11:40 European options for active euthanasia: Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and Spain legal frameworks 13:27 Practical considerations for California residents seeking international options 15:12 The importance of knowledge and control in end-of-life planning
In less than a decade, euthanasia has become tied for the fifth leading cause of death in Canada, accounting for one in every 20 deaths since it was first legalized in 2016. Over 60,000 Canadians have died via euthanasia.“This marks a massive cultural shift in how we live and die in Canada,” says Amanda Achtman, a leading critic of the practice and the founder of the Dying to Meet You Project.Patients no longer need to be terminally ill to request euthanasia, and there are ongoing debates about whether minors or people with mental illnesses should be able to apply. Disability advocate groups have been some of the leading critics of the program, arguing it sends a disturbing message: that the lives of those who are disabled are worth less.What are the ethical implications of Canada's euthanasia program? How is it changing family dynamics, societal norms, the meaning of a life well lived, and the fundamental role of a physician?Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
In this episode, Kelsi Sheren discusses the alarming trend of euthanasia legislation in Canada, particularly concerning minors. She highlights the push by organizations like Dying with Dignity to lower the age limit for medical assistance in dying, arguing that children are not mature enough to make such irreversible decisions. Sheren emphasizes the failures of the healthcare system to provide adequate mental health support, leading to a disturbing normalization of euthanasia as a solution. She calls for action to advocate for change and protect vulnerable populations.00:00 Introduction to the Death Lobby Discussion00:59 Euthanasia and Minors: A Controversial Proposal05:56 The Implications of Euthanasia for Children09:40 Healthcare Failures and the Push for Euthanasia13:56 Call to Action: Advocating for ChangeSubstack: https://substack.com/@kelsisheren - - - - - - - - - - - -SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS - - - - - - - - - - - -Ketone IQ- 30% off with code KELSI - https://ketone.com/KELSIGood Livin- 20% off with code KELSI - https://www.itsgoodlivin.com/?ref=KELSIBrass & Unity - 20% off with code UNITY - http://brassandunity.com - - - - - - - - - - - - -SHOPB&U Jewelry & Eyewear: https://brassandunity.com - - - - - - - - - - - - -Follow #thekelsisherenperspective- - - - - - - - - - - - -CHARITYHeroic Hearts Project - https://www.heroicheartsproject.orgAll Secure Foundation - http://allsecurefoundation.orgDefenders of Freedom -https://www.defendersoffreedom.usBoot Campaign - https://bootcampaign.org

One in 20 deaths in Canada are the result of Medical Assistance in Dying, the country's legalized euthanasia. Elaina Plott Calabro, staff writer at The Atlantic, joins host Krys Boyd to discuss why the MAID law has made medically assisted death more common than Alzheimer's and diabetes deaths combined, why that's taken advocates by surprise, and why patients say they prefer to die in this manner.

It's Tuesday, August 26th, A.D. 2025. 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 Kevin Swanson Women in India raped, murdered, and secretly buried A temple maintenance man in India is under arrest, after he testified of hundreds of women who were allegedly raped, murdered, and secretly buried around the small religious town of Dharmasthala. The BBC reports that nearly 100 bone fragments of human remains have already been found at two spots the man identified. The employee says he worked for the temple administration between 1995 and 2014, when he was allegedly coerced into burying the bodies. In 2025, 950 attacks on Christians in India For the first five months of 2025, Open Doors reports 950 attacks on Christians in India, which accounts for a rate of 2,300 per year. According to this reliable source, “These incidents included attacks, threats to abandon the Christian faith, excommunication, social boycotts, halting prayer services and church closures. Throughout India, 200 cases have been filed against pastors and believers based on fabricated conversion allegations.” India rated as the worst in The Worldview's international morality index -- or the Evil Index -- released last month. India rated high in persecuting Christians, corruption perceptions, as well as supporting abortion and homosexuality. Most evil nations vs. Best behaved nations The highest rated nations for immorality were India, North Korea, Mexico, Columbia, Vietnam, Pakistan, Nepal, Myanmar, Somalia, Nicaragua, China, and Nigeria. Best nations on the list were Armenia, Eastern European nations, Israel, Japan, and Singapore. Among European nations, Russia, Greenland, and Belgium were rated poorly. Switzerland and Ireland rated best on this International Morality Index. The nation of Chile lost the most ground over the last eight years. The country was rated at the top of the morality index eight years ago, and has dropped to the 66th position, due largely to approving abortion in 2017, and adopting homosexual faux-marriage in 2022. The International Morality Index considers nations on the basis of the sixth, seventh, and eighth commandments of God's law as well as the persecution of Christians. John 1:29 says, “But let us remember, this is why Jesus came. . . John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, ‘Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!'” Kenyan pro-lifers object to Bill Gates' abortion kill pills Kenyan pro-lifers have issued a petition addressed to Kenya's Ministry of Health, complaining of IPAS Africa Alliance's distribution of abortion kill pills throughout the country. The petition accuses IPAS of breaking Kenya's laws, and flooding schools and pharmacies with the kill pill. The Citizen Go petition notes that “Kenya's laws protect unborn life, but IPAS is exploiting loopholes. They hand out abortion pills without scans, prescriptions, or medical supervision.” IPAS Africa Alliance is reportedly funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Mexican drug cartel leader pled guilty “Be sure your sins will find you out.” That's what Number 32:23 warns. The founder of the largest drug cartel in the world, Mexican cartel kingpin Isamel “El Mayo” Zambada, pled guilty to federal charges yesterday, reports the Associated Press. He is charged with organizing a drug smuggling operation into the US, called the Sinaloa cartel. His partner Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman was found guilty of similar charges in 2019. The Mexican Sinoloa cartel is known for assassinations, tortures, and kidnappings — terrorizing parts of the southern border areas of Mexico and Texas. Today, first time home purchase costs double rent For the first time in almost 20 years, the price of buying an entry-level home is double the expense of renting. Austin, Denver, Las Vegas, and Phoenix are some of the worst places for unaffordable properties for first-time buyers. 5% of Canadian deaths due to euthanasia Canada's Doctor Assisted Deaths now account for 5% of total deaths for the nation — more than the deaths attributed to diabetes and Alzheimer's combined. Persons suffering solely from some sort of mental illness will be able to gain state medical help to kill themselves on March 17, 2027. In related news, the United Kingdom Bill on euthanasia has passed the House of Commons, and now has been presented to the House of Lords. United Kingdom legislature to dismiss jail time for violent offenders And finally, the United Kingdom government has come up with a plan to reduce prison overcrowding by dismissing jail time altogether for thousands of sex offenders, drug dealers, and violent criminals. The Sentencing Bill will be considered next month by parliament, reports The Times. Exodus 22:1 provides God's wisdom in such matters. “If a man steals an ox or a sheep, and slaughters it or sells it, he shall restore five oxen for an ox and four sheep for a sheep.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Tuesday, August 26th, in the year of our Lord 2025.

In this episode we are taking on the difficult subject of behavioral euthanasia. Both Heather and Kristi share their personal experiences with behavioral euthanasia. For Heather a suspected brain tumor created huge changes in Cash's behavior and personality. For Kristi it was Ginny's increased anxiety that put Ginny and other dogs in the home at risk. However, other people have to make the hard decision for a beloved family dog who is perfect 99% of the time, but the other 1% might be a danger to the public or even the family. Although each journey is unique, everyone who is in this situation deserves kindness and understanding. Euthanizing a dog is never an easy choice, but when that grief is coupled with trama it can be exceptionally difficult. However, we want to remind everyone that there is support for those who may be struggling after making the decision to humanely euthanize a dog due to behavior issues.Losing Lulu: (1) Losing Lulu | FacebookFollow us on https://www.instagram.com/sometimestheressideeye/

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Matthew 20:20-28 - The mother of the sons of Zebedee approached Jesus with her sons and did Him homage, wishing to ask Him for something. He said to her, "What do you wish?" She answered Him, "Command that these two sons of mine sit, one at Your right and the other at Your left, in Your Kingdom." Jesus said in reply, "You do not know what you are asking. Can you drink the chalice that I am going to drink?" They said to Him, "We can." He replied, "My chalice you will indeed drink, but to sit at My right and at My left, this is not Mine to give but is for those for whom it has been prepared by My Father." When the ten heard this, they became indignant at the two brothers. But Jesus summoned them and said, "You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and the great ones make their authority over them felt. But it shall not be so among you. Rather, whoever wishes to be great among you shall be your servant; whoever wishes to be first among you shall be your slave. Just so, the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many." Feast of Saint James, Apostle Saint James, pray for us! Bishop Sheen quote of the day Terry discusses the dangers of organ donation and how many organ donors are still alive as their organs are removed
A difficult subject this week - but aren't they all? We don't do sunshine and rainbows on this pod. I look at the topic of "suicide pills" which was bravely raised by American students at Brown in 1984, and made news all across the USA. The issue was also present in Britain in the early 80s, and was brought to prominence by a local doctor. I'll be interviewing him for next week's episode which will look at the British aspects of the "suicide pill" debate.
