Guest #1: Kevin Miller, Ph.D Professor of Moral Theology at Franciscan University, Stubenville

Topic: Reaction to this week's decree by the Vatican that the Catholic Church cannot bless same-sex unions since God "cannot bless sin." Statement issued by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith and approved by Pope Francis and reaffirms longstanding Church teaching that such acts are intrinsically disordered. 

Guest #2: Melanie Israel, research associate for the DeVoss Center for Religion & Civil Society at the Heritage Foundation

Topic: One consequence of the change in administrations is likely to be a surge in efforts to justify research using tissue and organs harvested from the bodies of unborn children killed in elective abortions. Mr. Biden's nominee to head the Department of Health and Human Services, Xavier Becerra, has vigorously advocated for federally funded fetal tissue research.
