God Answers Prayers! - on Good News Friday

Following the National Day of Prayer, we focus on good that God is doing in the culture. In today’s good news articles, the Supreme Court rules in favor of private property after union workers destroy property in protest. In Wyoming, minors are protected from transitioning surgeries. And a federal judge rules that Biden must uphold the law and protect the southern border.

Step inside the courtroom of conscience and discover how we're steering towards a more accountable America. We unfold the Supreme Court's promising direction in upholding constitutional governance, particularly in the realms of union accountability and the protection of private property. Our discussions illuminate the power of biblical and constitutional principles to shape our nation. As we celebrate recent legal triumphs that hold everyone to the same standard, including those within unions, we affirm the pursuit of justice and responsibility.

Navigating the sensitive intersection of medical ethics, this episode takes a look at gender transition surgeries being performed on minors. We weigh in on the debate with a call for prudence, proposing a traditional approach to medical care that honors the natural progression of childhood development. Applauding Wyoming's brave stance in banning gender transition procedures for minors, we shine a light on the urgent need for medical ethics to champion the well-being of our youth. This chapter is not just a conversation; it's a rallying cry for 'do no harm' to once again anchor the medical community's practices.

The scope of presidential power is a tale as old as the nation itself, and here we scrutinize both its history and its present boundaries. Reflecting on the past wrongs of Andrew Jackson and comparing current policy from the Biden administration, we underscore the vitality of our checks and balances system. Through tales of legal victories, such as the Texas AG's stand against constitutional oversights, we reaffirm the significance of a strong constitutional framework in preserving the integrity of our institutions. Join us as we examine the pillars that keep presidential authority in check, ensuring the health of our republic.

The Changing Landscape of Technology - AI Being Used to Shape DEI, part 2 - With Justin Haskins and Don Kendall

The Changing Landscape of Technology - AI Being Used to Shape DEI, part 2 - With Justin Haskins and Don Kendall

Could artificial intelligence be perpetuating a new wave of discrimination, under the guise of promoting fairness and equality? We tackle this paradox head-on at the ProFamily Legislators Conference, where we scrutinize the report on AI discrimination, and dissect the left's appetite for 'fairness-aware algorithms.' The push for AI to deliver equitable outcomes has been echoed by the Biden administration. 

The implications of AI are profound, stretching far into the realms of banking and the criminal justice system. We uncover how AI in banking might be affecting lending practices due to CO2 emission reduction commitments, potentially sidelining some businesses in favor of others. The criminal justice system is not immune to AI's reach either; we discuss how AI influences decisions on sentencing and bail, posing a risk of embedding ideological biases from its developers. The episode also sheds light on the broader societal implications, including ties to the ESG movement and the potential emergence of a social credit score-like system.

Zooming in on the criminal justice system, the episode features a critical look at the organizations behind risk assessment tools used in legal settings, such as those funded by Arnold Ventures. We explore how these tools could be shaping legal outcomes and the real-world impact through a case study from Virginia, showing AI's power to alter judicial decisions. The need for legislation to curb the ideological influence of AI in the justice system is paramount. We wrap up by discussing legislative responses aimed at preserving unbiased justice in an age where technology's influence is inescapable. Join us as we confront these urgent issues, calling for a balanced approach to integrating AI into the fabric of our society.

Defying Mandates and Upholding Faith: The Intersection of Biblical Ethics and Modern Medicine- With Dr. Mary Talley Bowden

Discover how biblical values intersect with modern medicine as we welcome Dr. Mary Talley Bowden, the fearless physician who defied federal health authorities during the pandemic. Her tenacity in advocating for treatments like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, despite pushback, echoes our broader discussion on the transformative power of faith and ethics in reshaping societal norms. We explore the potential for Christian principles to revolutionize the justice system, business ethics, and societal trust, and celebrate Dr. Bowden's legal victories that demand truth and transparency in healthcare. Together we weave through the complex tapestry of faith, culture, and medicine, examining the backbone of integrity that supports it all.

In a world where silence often prevails in the medical community, we challenge the status quo, probing the psychological effects of one-sided narratives and the dire need for open debate and diverse perspectives. Sharing personal experiences of censorship and the resurgence of platforms fostering dialogue, we underline the importance of re-education and incremental progress in combating misinformation. We also navigate the thorny ethical dilemma surrounding pharmacists' refusal to fill ivermectin prescriptions, illuminating Dr. Bowden's experiences within this contentious landscape. The episode concludes with a reflection on the founding vision of a decentralized approach to health crises, emphasizing a collective effort to bridge the gap between healthcare professionals and policymakers for the betterment of public health and policy reform.
