    This is not ethics.

    It is selective opinion and chit-chat.

  • Good stuff!

    At times a little superficial (no fault of the presenter's), but always interesting and thought-provoking topics.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Scapegoating, Peacemaking Reimagined, Sabbatical Reset
Q: Is it time to begin another peace process to address this latest incarnation of division and hatred here?
The panel explores a broader, modernized approach to peacebuilding that includes good relations, protected communities, and structural reforms, rather than a return to old round-table negotiations.
Racism, Misogyny, Violence
Q: What is the primary driver of violence against women and girls according to the panel?
The panel identifies a combination of learned male behavior, societal norms around masculinity, and the influence of online platforms that normalize aggression, with emphasis on early intervention and education to change attitudes from a young age.
American Revolution, Clonard Novena, Trauma and Healing
Q: What is trauma?
Trauma is a mind and body experience where the body remembers and signals distress; it involves biology and can be addressed by teaching body literacy to help stabilize the nervous system and differentiate distress from well-being.
Nussaibah Younis, Ebola, Civil Rights
Q: What is de-radicalisation and how does it work?
De-radicalisation focuses on reducing violent behavior by reconnecting individuals with supportive communities and addressing underlying social factors, rather than changing core beliefs; the approach emphasizes rehabilitation and legal accountability.
Bishop Rose Hudson-Wilkin, Minneapolis Minister, Interfaith Project
Q: Can you understand the kind of fears that some people have in relation to immigration within the UK?
Bishop Rose speaks about her own experience as a migrant and argues for understanding and compassion rather than projecting insecurities onto others.
