The practice of eugenics may cause you to conjure up the evil by-gone era of Hitler and Nazi Germany in World War II, but you might be surprised to learn about a new era of eugenics currently happening in America and around the world.

In this episode, Gabe gets underneath the clever vernacular some are using to cloak a more contemporary—but no less unethical—eugenics, like “modern genetics,” “gene therapy,” and “transhumanism.” He reveals how people are essentially playing God to create a “perfect” humanity but are, instead, manipulating God’s original and perfect design.

Tune in to get informed and think well about what this means for our human flourishing.
