Why We Shouldn’t Bubble-Wrap Ourselves Against Suffering – Magnifica Humanitas – Church Wisdom with Fr Eamonn McCarthy & Matthias Conroy

Radio Maria Ireland

About

Fr Eamonn McCarthy and Matthias Conroy work through paragraphs 118 to 126 of Pope Leo XIV's Magnifica Humanitas, where a document about artificial intelligence turns to illness, old age and the limits a technological culture treats as defects to be fixed. Fr Eamonn comes to the microphone straight from the bedside of a dying parishioner, and Matthias explains why "ambivalence" doesn't mean what most of us think, and what a turbulent flight does to a planeful of strangers. They close on a line from Viktor Frankl about the gas chambers of Auschwitz.
