    The Toxic War on Masculinity with Nancy Pearcey

    In this episode of Brave New Us, we delve into the dual expectations society places on men and the concept of masculinity. We discuss the innate understanding of what it means to be a ‘good man’—characterized by duty, honor, integrity, and sacrifice—and contrast it with the societal pressure to ‘man up’ and embody toughness, competitiveness, and stoicism. Joining us is Professor Pearcey, author of “The Toxic War on Masculinity, How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes,” who shares her personal journey and the inspiration behind her controversial book. She challenges the negative portrayal of masculinity in modern culture and offers a fresh perspective on how Christianity provides a balanced view of gender roles. We explore the harmful effects of the so-called ‘toxic masculinity’ narrative and discuss how we can better support men in embracing their true roles as protectors, providers, and responsible individuals without succumbing to toxic traits. Tune in to Brave New Us for an insightful conversation that seeks to understand and redefine what it means to be a man in today’s world.

    What's Cheaper and More Effective Than IVF?

    Today’s episode is a candid exploration of the Catholic Church’s teachings on reproductive technologies. We confront common misconceptions, such as the belief that the Church wants women to have as many children as possible and therefore supports IVF, or that the Church, led by men, cannot empathize with women facing infertility. We delve into the Church’s actual stance, advocating for responsible parenthood and natural birth spacing. We discuss why the Church opposes IVF, not just for the sake of women but also for the potential children, emphasizing that while every child has inherent dignity, not all conception methods are morally equal. Join me as we dissect how IVF violates the dignity of the child, the woman, and the sanctity of marriage. We also reveal a lesser-known, ethical, and natural solution to infertility that aligns with the Church’s teachings. Tune in to Brave New Us for an enlightening discussion that dispels myths and sheds light on the Church’s compassionate approach to complex issues. … Don't forget to hit the SUBSCRIBE button to never miss a video!

    Why Pope Francis Is Right about Surrogacy

    In this episode of Brave New Us, I dive into the heated debate over surrogacy following Pope Francis’s strong condemnation. The uproar has sparked widespread media critique, revealing a disconnect from the non-religious arguments against surrogacy. I take a closer look at a CNN opinion article that labels the Pope’s stance as misogynistic and misinformed, a sentiment echoed across liberal media. I challenge these views by shedding light on the Church’s empowering role for women throughout history and its thoughtful approach to legislation. I also reflect on Olivia Morel, an activist born through surrogacy, and her surprising lack of knowledge about the Church’s longstanding opposition to surrogacy, established in Donum Vitae. This oversight highlights a broader issue: the Church’s need to communicate its positions more effectively. Join me as I explore the moral, societal, and individual implications of surrogacy, informed by the Church’s teachings on motherhood, children’s rights, and the sanctity of marriage. Listen in to this episode of Brave New Us for a candid conversation on one of the most controversial topics today. … Don't forget to hit the SUBSCRIBE button to never miss a video!

    Navigating Reproductive Technologies as a Healthcare Professional

    Welcome to another thought-provoking episode of Brave New Us, where we delve into the complex world of fertility treatments through the lens of Catholic bioethics. In this episode, we’re joined by John DiCamillo, Ethicist and Personal Consultations Director at the National Catholic Bioethics Center (NCBC). With the moral landscape of fertility interventions becoming increasingly intricate, many Catholics find themselves navigating a maze of questions. IVF is widely acknowledged as problematic, but what about other interventions like gamete intrafallopian transfer or intrauterine insemination? Especially when these methods involve the couple’s own gametes, the ethical considerations can be daunting. John brings 12 years of expertise as a full-time ethicist to the table, offering insights into how the NCBC provides guidance on these very issues. Through research, writing, publications, and education, the NCBC stands as a beacon for those seeking clarity in the area of Catholic bioethics. Tune in as Samantha and John discuss the dilemmas faced by couples exploring fertility treatments, the principles that can help discern the morality of different methods, and the invaluable role of personal consultations in addressing these sensitive topics.
