  • Conversations with Consequences - EP 370 Sam Brownback on China's War on Faith & Father Robert Spitzer on Pope Leo XIV's Encyclical
    As Catholics around the world await Pope Leo XIV's encyclical on AI coming out early next week, Father Robert Spitzer joins to discuss what we might expect from the document especially as it pertains to the dangers of artificial intelligence and the impact this new digital arena is having on the economy. As creator of his own AI tools, the EWTN host also discusses why theologically sound AI concepts must be developed to combat the secular nature of so many mainstream options that have led to depression and even death among teens. On the heels of the White House administration's trip to China, former ambassador-at-large of international religious freedom Sam Brownback joins to discuss his new book and the many grievances of the Chinese Communist Party. He also sheds light on the fate of Jimmy Lai and so many other faithful that are being held on trumped-up charges. Msgr. Roger Landry also joins as we prepare our hearts for Pentecost Sunday.
