Show Notes
There are hundreds of thousands of frozen embryos -tiny, frozen babies- in the world today. What to do with all of these human lives?
Catholic bioethicist Elizabeth Rex joins Bishop Caggiano to talk about this question, as well as:
...why is contraception immoral?
...what would Bishop Caggiano say to a cohabiting unmarried couple?
...what is IVF and what does the Church teach about it?
For any couples who are looking to adopt, Dr. Rex points to Snowflakes Embryo Adoption and the National Embryo Donation Center. More information is at the Donum Vitae Institute.
