Clinton and Nathan are joined by Rebekah Dyer of Justice for All to talk about good tips for discussing abortion with pro-choice people. There's also a bit of a technical issue.

Christopher Kaczor returns to the Pro-Life Thinking podcast to join us in talking about his recently published book, Disputes in Bioethics. There were some sound anomalies in the recording, and we apologize about that. I have a theory what it might be so we'll try to get that corrected in the future. I eliminated as much of it as I could.

Clinton and Nathan talk about two articles being shared around social media. The first is an article by a former Focus on the Family speaker who considered having an abortion after her husband tragically died on a trip to the beach. Another is a woman who went into labor while taking her bar exam. Then they respond to some arguments from the Bible in defense of abortion they received on their iTunes rate and review page.
The portion of the book I quoted from was Medical Ethics: Principles, Persons, and Problems by John M. Frame, pp. 95-102. See those pages for a much more in-depth examination of the passage from Exodus 21.

Clinton is joined by Chris Christiansen, who recently debated Valerie Tarico. They're going to analyze a video on YouTube by Ryan Chapman called A Politically Neutral Take on When Human Life Begins. Clinton and Chris also discuss the Biblical account of David losing his son and what it says about the pro-life position for Christians. They finish off with a discussion about the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett to the United States Supreme Court.

Lost episode! Clinton and Nathan recorded this episode in July, 2019, but post-production hadn't been done on the episode so it hasn't been released for public consumption. Now it's ready to go (at least as ready as it will ever be, considering audio through BlogTalkRadio isn't the greatest). The topic for discussion in this episode is gradualism, the idea that a human gains value as he develops (either because his capacity to feel pain develops, or for some other reason).

Clinton is joined by Braxton Hunter of Trinity Radio to discuss a debate between Eric Hernandez and "Maxwell Yates" on the existence of the soul.

Clinton and Nathan are joined by Fr. Frank Pavone of Priests for Life to discuss Norma McCorvey's (the Roe of Roe v. Wade) alleged deathbed confession on the AKA Jane Roe documentary. Fr. Frank knew McCorvey well, so he is here to offer their insights into this confession and how McCorvey has been used by the pro-abortion lobby for their own purposes.
Here are some links to statements by various pro-life leaders who knew Norma McCorvey personally:
