Check Out My New Podcast: What It Means to be Human

I am back in the podcast business, renamed from Brave New Bioethics to What It Means to be Human. After consulting with my colleagues at the Discovery Institute--which is producing the broadcast--we decided that since I am dealing with issues well beyond bioethics now, the new title was warranted.

In the first edition, I define some of the threats to human exceptionalism and argue that accepting the intrinsic value of human life simply because it is human is the necessary intellectual condition precedent (as we lawyers say) to universal human rights.

Check it out.

Here is the RSS Feed.

I don't think so. Not sure though.

sounds cool, and (being into music) I must comment that I like the soundtrack, and how you use it at the beggining and end a little differently.

oh, yeah, the talk was good too ;-).

Except I had nothing to do with the music.

Oh, well, it's good anyhow.

You did do the talk, which was good.
