Legacy media did their part to be sure that the tracks were clear, that the gates were open and nothing better try and stop this locomotive.

Many gay men and women have been told that God doesn't love them and that religious people hate them. The reality is much more humane and helpful. Dr. Janet E Smith discusses how many gay people, who previously thought that God and religious people hated them, have come to know God's love through the efforts of humble individuals who took the time to minister to them.   Professor Smith is the author of Humanae Vitae: A Generation Later and A Right to Privacy. Her volume entitled Self-Gift contains her previously published essays on Humanae Vitae and the thought of John Paul II.   She edited Why Humanae Vitae is Right: A Reader; Life Issues, Medical Choices (with Christopher Kaczor); Living the Truth in Love: Pastoral Approaches to Same-Sex Attractions (with R. Paul Check); and Why Humanae Vitae is Still Right, a reader with 21 essays by various authors.   More than two million copies of her talk, “Contraception: Why Not” have been distributed.   Professor Smith served three terms as a consulter to the Pontifical Council on the Family, and 8 years on the Anglican Roman Catholic International Commission III.   She authors a regular column for the National Catholic Register and has appeared on Geraldo, Fox Morning News, CNN International, CNN Newsroom, AlJazeera, and EWTN among others.

Brad is the host of Life Issues, a daily radio commentary, also the weekly Straight Talk on Life Issues and has produced numerous radio specials standing for life.--There's a lot of misinformation being communicated throughout our nation. Right up front we need to be clear. The intentional killing of a baby in the womb is not healthcare. It is murder. The Bible is very clear when it says that God hates the hands that shed innocent blood yet from coast-to-coast there are politicians that are making abortion the centerpiece of their campaigns.--Brad noted how research shows that over 95- of all abortions are done for social or economic reasons. This means they were not required for the life-health of the mother, rape or incest. Many women are also forced-coerced into having an abortion. So he believes we need to stand by and support women when they're facing an unexpected pregnancy and not tell them that the answer is to kill their child. --There's also a lot of misinformation being disseminated about the abortion pill. Although women are told it's not a baby, this procedure is chemical abortion. When the baby passes from their body they see this child and it's at that point they realize they were told a lie. This is causing not only babies to be victims but expectant mothers as well.

This means they were not required for the life/health of the mother, rape or incest. Many women are also forced/coerced into having an abortion. So he believes we need to stand by and support women when they're facing an unexpected pregnancy and not tell them that the answer is to kill their child. There's also a lot of misinformation being disseminated about the abortion pill. Although women are told it's not a baby, this procedure is chemical abortion. When the baby passes from their body they see this child and it's at that point they realize they were told a lie. This is causing not only babies to be victims but expectant mothers as well.

Euthanasia and the Principle of Double Effect (Special Podcast Highlight)

It can be confusing to understand what actually constitutes euthanasia.   Patrick dives into a profound discussion with 16-year-old Elizabeth from Minnesota about the intricacies of euthanasia, life support, and the principle of double effect, all through the lens of Catholic moral theology.   Elizabeth, curious and concerned, asks about the Church's stance on euthanasia and the moral implications of withdrawing life support. Patrick clarifies that the Church vehemently opposes euthanasia as it involves intentionally ending an innocent life, categorizing it as a grave sin.   The conversation deepens as Elizabeth wonders about the morality of discontinuing artificial life support for someone unlikely to recover. Here, Patrick introduces the concept of "ordinary" vs. "extraordinary" means of sustaining life. He explains that while ordinary means (like feeding and hydration) must always be provided if the patient can physically tolerate them, extraordinary means (like a ventilator) may be ethically withdrawn if they no longer contribute to the recovery or the continuation of life.   Enter the principle of double effect, a crucial element in Catholic moral reasoning that Patrick lays out. This principle helps distinguish actions with dual outcomes—where one is intended and ethical, while the other, although foreseen, is unintended. For instance, removing a life support machine is intended to cease the intervention that prolongs dying, not to cause death itself.   Patrick uses the example of an ectopic pregnancy to further illustrate this principle. In such cases, removing the affected fallopian tube to save the mother's life, though it results in the loss of the baby in the womb, is morally permissible because the death of the little child is not the intended effect.
