Eoin and Fr. Chris Garrett work through several questions from the YouCat on the moral life. They discuss whether we must respect a person’s free will even when they choose evil, and what that means for free speech laws and the limits of state power. They then explore how the Holy Spirit sets us free from worldly powers and rooted in love, the difference between good and evil actions and why a good intention alone is never enough, and why the ends can never justify the means. The episode closes with a rich conversation on the passions and emotions: why God gave them to us, why they can lead us astray, and how reason must be their master if they are to serve the good rather than overwhelm it.
