0:00 - Intro
1:30 - China is building the world's largest DNA database to facilitate forced organ harvesting for profit. Why should this concern Catholics?
16:10 - Catholic perspective on "humanized mice" which are produced by taking live organs such as thymus, liver, lungs, bone marrow from babies, then transplanting them.
31:28 - Why is IVF unacceptable for Catholics?
39:17 - Is abortion actually referenced or mentioned in the Bible?
47:55 - To what extent are we obligated to follow the advice or orders of a doctor when so many have turned to simply giving “feel good” advice? For example, doctors affirming overweight patients to “love their bodies” or encouraging those with gender dysphoria to “be themselves?” Do you feel, as a result of the quick fixes that are so often thrown at us in the medical community nowadays, that we’ve lost sight of the importance of living a healthy lifestyle?
