This week, Sean and Scott discuss:

• A murdered teenager was resurrected as a chatbot, raising ethical and theological concerns about AI misuse.
• A Harvard study suggests that race matters less than it used to for achieving the American dream, with economic mobility improving for Black Americans.
• Young men in America are falling behind in education, employment, and mental health, facing a crisis of purpose and increasing isolation.
• Listener question: ethical dilemmas around IVF, including the moral treatment of frozen embryos.
• Listener question: How Christians can uphold Sunday worship in light of the Sabbath command being fulfilled in Christ.

This week Sean and Scott continue the conversation about the morality of IVF. Don't forget to listen to Part 1, last week, when they defined and explained the nature of IVF and began the conversation about the moral permissibility of practicing it. This week, we uncover further differences and clarify the moral issues beneath the debate.
