Over the last few months, users of Facebook and Instagram may have noticed a new avenue to interact with the platform: Meta AI. The AI tool, similar to language learning models like ChatGPT, X's Grok, and Microsoft's Co-Pilot, is able to carry forward advanced conversations with users and synthesize complex answers based on prompts. Meta has leveraged its AI model to create a wide array of chatbots. Some are officially sanctioned by Meta and feature the voices of celebrities like Kristin Bell and John Cena. Others are created and customized by users. Two weeks ago, the Wall Street Journal reported that they had had hundreds of test conversations with these chatbots over several months. They found that Meta had not prevented some of these chatbots from engaging in sexually explicit conversations with users, even with minor users. In addition, some of these chatbots were based on characters that are themselves minors. This does not appear to be an accident on the part of Meta. Guardrails appear to have been removed or never put in place, with the aim of making the chatbots as engaging and addictive as possible. This is just one example of the challenges that Big Tech and AI have placed before the American people. Here to talk about those challenges  is Wes Hodges, Acting Director of the Center for Technology and the Human Person at The Heritage Foundation. —Follow Wes Hodges on X: https://x.com/wesghodgesWSJ Article on Meta AI Chatbots:https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/meta-ai-chatbots-sex-a25311bfHave thoughts?

In this thought-provoking lecture, Dr. Scott Roninger explores the profound connections between literature, philosophy, and our understanding of human nature, focusing especially on Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov and Plato's philosophical dialogues. Through Mark Twain's reflections on mastering the Mississippi River, Roninger introduces the distinction between viewing life practically versus contemplatively, emphasizing the importance of awe and beauty. He then delves into Dostoevsky's characters, aligning them with Plato's three parts of the human soul—appetite, spirit (thumos), and intellect (nous)—highlighting the Christian dimension of these philosophical concepts. Roninger argues that true human flourishing and societal health stem from properly orienting our deepest desires toward truth, virtue, and ultimately God.

It's 2025 in America, but news reports of antitrust lawsuits which, if successful, could potentially lead to at least a partial breakup of some of the biggest tech companies in the world, hearken back to the early 1900s when Standard Oil was fundamentally restructured and the Federal Trade Commission was created. Names like Meta, Google, Amazon, and Apple – they're all being examined for potential anticompetitive behavior, with Meta's Mark Zuckerberg recently taking the stand and Google entering a remedy phase to ameliorate what a Court decided was behavior violating antitrust law. The political giving associated with these companies suggests that the outcomes of these suits could affect not just individual platform users but also possibly the broader American political landscape. Joining the podcast today to discuss these developments is Daniel Cochrane, Senior Research Associate in the Center for Technology and the Human Person at The Heritage Foundation.Mark Zuckerberg Wants Us to Forgive, Forget Facebook's Sins

From the breakout sessions of the 2025 EFCA Theology Conference, ⁠Professor Jason Thacker⁠ leads a session on "Theological Anthropology, the Human Person and Ethics-Bioethics," addressing the questions:What are the dangers of a developmental account of personhood?What impact does that have for what it means for beginning- and end-of-life issues?

Delivered by Father Peter Tukan, SDB from Salesian Don Bosco Gerak in the Diocese of Labuan Bajo, Indonesia. Genesis 3: 1-8; Rs psalm 32: 1-2.5.6.7; Mark 7: 31-37THE IMAGE AND LIKENESS OF GOD AS A HUMAN PERSON The theme for our meditation today is: The Image and Likenessof God as a Human Person. Human beings created by the Lord God in the image andlikeness of God are purely gifts. That noble and special dignity is given inGod's will, and not because man wants it. One of the dimensions given to humansis the freedom and the right to enjoy life in the world which is fullyentrusted to human hands. But that special gift has its limits, namely as ahuman being. It means that man uses that gift of freedom and trustto the extent that he is capable of being a human being. The position anddignity of human beings remain as human beings. A human person cannot changehis position to the position of God. That is the intention of God to bestowprivileges on man, but man is also given a limit that he cannot break. This isthe same as a father and a mother will remain a father and a mother to theirchildren until they die. It is impossible that children will one day changetheir position to become parents, while parents will become children. Such a change only occurs as a drama or play. But assomething that is nature and identity, in principle it remains from thebegining. In this context, the title of this meditation is properly so bysaying: man is special as a man and period. It does not need to be added withthe connection "and", "or", "also". It means thatman should not be given any other alternative, so that he can use his freedomto choose another alternative other than being a human being. Instead, this additional option is considered by Satanto be a flaw. He tempted man to compete with God's power. Man was tempted andhis first fall into sin occurred. There is a common saying that goes in thisway: your strength or power is also your weakness! Man was created in the imageand likeness of God as a human being, which means that he is superior to allother kinds of creation on earth. Even humans are given the trust to take careand to use other creations, as well as to be their protectors. But those advantages and privileges are alsodisadvantages. When he cannot use his power wisely and correctly, it becomes areproach for Satan to deceive man. One way to use power correctly andresponsibly is to be a servant, helper, comforter, and healer of others who aresuffering and who need help. Jesus is our example for this good deeds. If wekeep ourselves busy doing good and serving, Satan will find it difficult todeceive us.Let us pray. In the name of the Father... O Lord, fill uswith Your power so that we can defeat the forces of evil. Glory to the Fatherand to the Son and to the Holy Spirit ... In the name of the Father...

Today's Topics: 1) Faculties of the Human Person (Liber Christo Chart, p.257) 2, 3, 4) In Part 51 of this series, Jesse and Eddie continue discussing "Prayers, Weapons, and Tactics," beginning on page 253, in The Liber Christo Method of Healing and Deliverance, by Dr. Dan Schneider

For full written text see here: https://landandbible.blogspot.com/2025/01/agency-in-bible.html In the Bible, God is often represented by the messengers he sends. Even beyond just representing God, God's very presence was in and with the messenger. When God gave words to his messengers to speak, it was God speaking. When God gave authority and power to his messengers to perform miraculous deeds, it was God performing those miraculous deeds. When the messenger was at the scene, it was to be understood that God was at the scene. In authorized functional status, the messenger was equal to his sender. These realities are known as the principle of agency. In certain ways the messenger “is” the sender since the person's agent is to be regarded as the sender himself. The Word (the human person Christ Jesus) was God (the Father, who sent Jesus). The Gospel of John declares that Jesus was sent (by God) over 40 times. The statements below made by Jesus in the Gospel of John show how the sent one (Jesus) is to be regarded as the One who sent him (God, the Father). ·        The Father who sent me has himself testified about me. ·        This is the deed Godrequires– to believe in the one whom He sent. ·        He whom God has sent speaks the words of God ·        He who receives me receives the one who sent me… ·        He who sees me sees the Father… ·        I did not speak on my own, but the Father who sent me commanded me to say all that I have spoken. ·         I do nothing by my own authority… ·        I can do nothing by my own power… ·        For just as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son also to have life in himself and He has given him authority to execute judgment… ·        I seek to do not my own will but the will of Him who sent me… ·        The works that the Father has given me to complete, the very works that I am doing, testify on my behalf that the Father has sent me… ·        The words you hear are not mine, but the Father's who sent me… ·        I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does His works.

In this episode I read a New York Times article that was published 12/23/24: "Research Finds Vaccines Are Not Behind the Rise in Autism. So What Is?" by Emily Baumgaertner I have some mixed feelings on this article that I share. I chose to read it because not everyone has subscriptions to the NYT or even gets the paper. I feel like it highlights some decent data but misses a huge opportunity to reframe the rise in diagnoses as a positive shift. *** Email: autisticang38@gmail.com Online Course: angela-walker-s-school.teachable.com/p/adultautism101 Public Journal series: https://www.amazon.com/author/autisticang Substack: https://autisticang38.substack.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/autistic-ang-87494030a/ Quora: https://adulthoodwithachanceofautism.quora.com/ Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/autisticang38/ TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@autisticang⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Threads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.threads.net/@autisticang38⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/autisticang38.bsky.social --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/angela-n-walker/support

In this lecture, delivered on March 30, 2023, as part of the Drummond Lecture Series at Hillsdale College, Dr. Stephen Blackwood—the founding president of Ralston College—argues that we must first understand something's nature before we can properly care for and cultivate it. This principle holds true for all living things—including plants and animals—but it is seen in its fullest complexity in human beings as they seek to realize their unique potential through the concrete challenges and conditions of their individual lives. Drawing richly upon both text and images, Dr. Blackwood explains that the actualization of our potential is not inevitable but instead relies upon us being rooted in a culture that can nurture, sustain, and challenge us as we seek to orient our subjective and finite experiences of the world toward eternal and infinite realities. Dr. Blackwood's lecture is a call to action for both individuals and institutions, reminding us of our sacred duty to both realize our own gifts and to accompany and support others as they seek to do the same.  Resources   Ralston College  Website: https://www.ralston.ac/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RalstonCollegeSavannah X: https://twitter.com/RalstonCollege   Ralston College Humanities MA: https://www.ralston.ac/humanities-ma   Authors, Ideas, and Works Mentioned in this Episode    radix (Latin, “root) William Shakespeare, Hamlet The Biblical book of Ezekiel  Ugo da Carpi cultus, (Latin, “cultivation, culture, education, devotion”)  Aristotle, De Anima Aristotle, Nicomachean Ethics St. Augustine Anthony Daniels / Theodore Dalrymple  thaumazein (θαυμάζω) (Ancient Greek, “wonder”)  Sigrid Undset, Kristen Lavransdatter Gerard Manley Hopkins, “The Leaden Echo and the Golden Echo” Homer, Odyssey  Pythagoras Boethius, The Consolation of Philosophy Cal Newport, Deep Work Cal Newport, Digital Minimalism Gerard Manley Hopkins, “As Kingfishers Catch Fire”    Quotes   “Life can only be lived for itself.

In this week's podcast, join Fr. Rossi and Shane Page as they discuss the upcoming Methodist Conference and the dignity of human persons.

We dive into this (after a problem with uploading).This is a look at the structure of the human person, and while it's longer than I anticipated, I believe it is super important. I use the 4 causes of Aritotle to get into this:The efficient cause: A human sperm and a human egg got our bodies started, but it needed an eternal influence to cause our immortal souls to start. Therefore, we must conclude that God infused the soul at the moment of conception.The material cause: That's our body!The formal cause: The soul is the form of the body, it organizes our material elements to be what it is: of human nature. We talked about the powers of the soul, the will, the intellect, the passions, etc.The final cause: That's next time!

In this throwback episode (from Season Two) Paul and Dominic discuss the first of the four principles of Catholic Social Teaching, the dignity of the human person. We are all tempted to reduce the value of others, to, as Pope Francis puts it, “despise the limit that another's value imposes.” Since Vatican II, the Church has emphasized the infinite dignity of every human being and has explained the implications of that belief.   Faith has untold power to inspire and sustain our respect for others, for believers come to know that God loves every man and woman with infinite love and “thereby confers infinite dignity” upon all humanity. We likewise believe that Christ shed his blood for each of us and that no one is beyond the scope of his universal love.

Guest Host Matthew Bunson reviews church news with Shannon Mullen and Peggy Stanton gives us a preview of this Sunday's Gospel. Deacon David Delaney examines John Paul II's response to the Crisis of the Human Person.

St. Irenaeus wrote that “The glory of God is a man fully alive, and the life of man consists in beholding God” (Adv. haer. 4.20.7).” To be a human person is to bear the image of God with the calling to become more like Him in holiness. The more we do so, the more we become our true selves. The God-Man Jesus Christ came to restore and fulfill us as living icons of God. He enables us to become truly human as we participate personally in Him as the Second Adam. As St. Paul wrote, “For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.” (2 Cor. 1:20)

Do you know someone who struggles with gender ideology? You may feel confused, conflicted, and not sure of how to show true compassion. You can get sound encouragement and advice in this podcast. In the clip of "Trending with Timmerie," the main focus is on the teachings of the Catholic Church regarding the body and soul, especially in the context of the contemporary gender identity crisis. Key points from Timmerie include: Identity Crisis: The modern world is facing an identity crisis where individuals are questioning their identities, beliefs, and purpose. There are some who hate their bodies and who God created them to be. This is not limited to the transgender community but is pervasive across different groups of people. The Body and Soul Unity Document: The San Francisco Archbishop Salvador Cordileone and Oakland Bishop Michael Barber released a joint document titled "Body and Soul Unity of the Human Person." It emphasizes the teachings of the Catholic Church on human sexuality, gender, marriage, and their implications for the gender crisis. Gender Ideology: The document acknowledges the rise of gender ideology in today's society. This ideology is seen as contrary to the Church's teachings as it denies aspects like male and female differences, the unity of body and soul, and the anthropological basis of the family. Body-Soul Unity: The Church emphasizes the unity of body and soul, asserting that one cannot be a different gender trapped in a body. The belief is that body and soul are created together at conception, making them inseparable. Image of God: Being male or female is seen as a divine creation and is viewed as a good, willed by God. The complementary nature of males and females is understood to reflect the Trinitarian nature of God. Challenge of Gender Ideology: The Church acknowledges the challenges faced by those struggling with their gender identity. While the Church stands by her teachings, it also stresses compassion and love towards everyone. Compassion vs. Approval: An essential distinction is made between being compassionate towards someone and approving of their choices or behavior. True compassion, according to the Church, involves both truth and charity.  Guidance for those with Gender Dysphoria: For those experiencing gender dysphoria, the Church recommends approaching the issue with a combination of understanding the teachings of the Church, seeking genuine Christian charity, and focusing on the truth about the human person. The emphasis is on loving the person while not necessarily endorsing every choice or behavior.
