The Lila Rose Podcast

Is it ever compassionate to seek death for a patient? How can we protect our loved ones from mistreatment in end-of-life care? And what risks arise when the sanctity of life is compromised by the legalization of assisted suicide?In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Charlie Camosy, author of eight books and professor of Theological and Social Ethics at Fordham University. Together, we examine the moral dilemmas posed by assisted dying laws, including recent developments like the UK’s decision to legalize assisted dying for terminally ill patients.We discuss the strongest arguments in favor of assisted suicide and explain why they fail to honor the dignity of the human person. This critical conversation sheds light on how Christians can respond to these complex issues with truth and compassion.I hope this dialogue helps you reflect deeply on the value of life and equips you to engage with this crucial topic in your community and beyond.Charlie's website: https://www.charlescamosy.com/Help support the show by joining our Locals community!

Is overpopulation truly a threat to society, or should we be more concerned about the U.S.'s declining population growth? Does having more children lead to greater happiness? Today, I sit down with Dr. Catherine Pakaluk, Professor of Political Economics at the Catholic University of America, to explore these questions. Rather than focusing on those choosing not to have children, Catherine shifts the spotlight to women who defy the trends—mothers of large families.In this thought-provoking discussion, we delve into what drives these women to grow their families, the surprising ways babies can contribute to mental health and healing, and an unexpected take on the link between resources and population growth. Join our growing Locals community! https://lilarose.locals.com/  Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/LilaRose865   A big thank you to our partner, EWTN, the world’s leading Catholic network!

How did Gen Z women vote in the recent election? Are we witnessing a shift toward conservative values among young people? On today’s podcast, I’m joined by Isabel Brown ( @theisabelbrown) —author, cultural commentator, and advocate for free-thinking youth. Together, we explore why the liberal narrative framing abortion as empowering failed to resonate as expected this election cycle.We also discuss the millions spent on woke celebrity endorsements that missed the mark, signaling that young people are beginning to reject the mainstream culture’s hollow propaganda. Join Isabel and me as we examine the cultural shift and reflect on the setbacks faced by leftism's poisonous ideologies. While there's still much work to do, this election dealt a blow to "woke" culture—something worth celebrating.Looking ahead, we dive into the next phase of the movement: reshaping the conversation and building a culture where abortion becomes unthinkable.

Are women oppressed in the West, particularly the United States? Is the new presidency going to take away basic human rights from women? Is the new 4B movement based on correct principles? Today I talk about the real plague that is causing so many women to suffer - the lost feminine identity and poor relationships with others. While I support one tenant of the 4B movement (no sex to men you’re not married to!), the overall sentiment is cynical and flawed. In this video I offer some alternatives to restoring peace and hope to men and women alike! *Live Action Truth About Sex: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMoyUlHDKso&list=PLRCroccSjXWTKm2BUjdL_SIz_eDh7xCAF&ab_channel=LiveAction*Economics of Sex video: https://youtu.be/cO1ifNaNABY?feature=shared A big thank you to our partner, EWTN, the world’s leading Catholic network!

What was it like to be raised Wiccan? How do practices of the occult indicate the existence of a supernatural reality? What are the flaws in the occult and New Age philosophies and how is Jesus the answer to our deep longing for the unseen? Today I sit down with Nora Jensen, a former Wiccan who looked down on Christians. She shares her supernatural experiences while practicing spells with her parents, which left her with a lingering sense of caution and doubt about her childhood beliefs, ultimately leading her to convert to the Catholic faith. She discusses a mystical experience of receiving God's love during the exchange of peace at Mass and how it changed her life forever.Help support the show by joining our Locals community!
