In this episode of Brave New Us, I dive into the heated debate over surrogacy following Pope Francis’s strong condemnation. The uproar has sparked widespread media critique, revealing a disconnect from the non-religious arguments against surrogacy.

I take a closer look at a CNN opinion article that labels the Pope’s stance as misogynistic and misinformed, a sentiment echoed across liberal media. I challenge these views by shedding light on the Church’s empowering role for women throughout history and its thoughtful approach to legislation.

I also reflect on Olivia Morel, an activist born through surrogacy, and her surprising lack of knowledge about the Church’s longstanding opposition to surrogacy, established in Donum Vitae. This oversight highlights a broader issue: the Church’s need to communicate its positions more effectively.

Join me as I explore the moral, societal, and individual implications of surrogacy, informed by the Church’s teachings on motherhood, children’s rights, and the sanctity of marriage.

Listen in to this episode of Brave New Us for a candid conversation on one of the most controversial topics today.
