Sean McDowell, Scott Rae
This week Scott & Sean discuss:
- Are political opponents really our enemies? We dive into a Wall Street Journal op-ed challenging partisanship and urging love across political lines.
- The ethics of emerging reproductive technologies like in-vitro gametogenesis (IVG) and the potential societal impacts.
- A New York Times article about humanity’s readiness for a world beyond IVF, asking if we're prepared for designer babies.
- How should we relate to "diverse intelligence" like AI, robots, and cyborgs?
- Listener questions tackle sensitive topics such as retirement from a biblical perspective and the emotional and spiritual challenges of male infertility (book mentioned: The Infertility Companion).
