At the intersection of biology, medicine, and ethics lies the challenging field of bioethics, where cutting-edge science meets humanity’s deepest moral dilemmas. In this episode of Reality Check, we delve into the complexities of brain death and organ donation with Dr. John Di Camillo, an ethicist at the National Catholic Bioethics Center. Dr. Di Camillo offers a nuanced perspective on the criteria for declaring brain death, the controversies surrounding organ donation, and the implications of these issues for both medical practice and Catholic moral theology. We explore recent debates that question the adequacy of current brain death criteria, the ethical concerns of organ procurement, and how these discussions shape our understanding of life, death, and human dignity. This episode provides essential insights for anyone grappling with the ethical challenges posed by modern medical advancements. https://www.ncbcenter.org/ https://www.catholicculture.org/culture/library/view.cfm?recnum=12731 🌐 FIND The EuroCon website: https://europeanconservative.com/ 👍 LIKE The EuroCon on Facebook: / theeurocon ✅ FOLLOW The EuroCon on Twitter: / euroconofficial 👉 FOLLOW The EuroCon on GETTR: https://gettr.com/user/eurocon

What is the relationship between art and morality, and can beauty truly save the world? In this thought-provoking episode of Reality Check, we explore these profound questions with Fr. Brad Elliott OP, a Dominican friar, artist, and philosopher. Fr. Brad delves into the metaphysical connections between artistic expression and ethical values, arguing that true art is not merely a human creation but an intellectual virtue that reflects the divine. We discuss whether one must be a good person to be a good artist, how art can ennoble material reality, and the challenges of creating art in a world often disconnected from transcendent values. This episode invites you to reconsider the role of art in shaping our moral compass and its potential to bring us closer to the truth. Watch Fr.

Reality Check | Ep. 8 | Art and Morality: Can Beauty Save the World?
In this episode, Harrison is joined from across the Atlantic by Victor Davis Hanson, the distinguished American classicist and military historian. Breaking with the established in-person format, they meet virtually to discuss the collapse of Western self-confidence in a multipolar world, how mass immigration erodes the meaning of citizenship, and the fateful last words of all dying civilisations: 'It cannot happen here.' Would a victory for Donald Trump in November amount to an awakening from our complacent slumber? And could a second Trump presidency avert what might otherwise befall us: the end of everything? **This episode was filmed before the attempted assassination of Donald Trump on 13 July, 2024.** Produced by The European Conservative, The Forge is a monthly programme which aims to revive the art of Socratic dialogue and intellectual combat at a time when, across the legacy institutions of the Western world, vulgar sophistry and intolerant conformism appear to reign supreme. Presented by Harrison Pitt, a senior editor at The European Conservative, The Forge will be a place for thoroughgoing discussion and fearless debate with the world's finest thinkers on a range of subjects, from philosophy and current affairs to history and culture. As the name suggests, it should also enable us to build up our armoury and sharpen our weapons as we engage in a war for our civilisation. 0:00 Intro 0:15 Monologue 01:08 Decadence, Denial, Decline 05:14 The Wisdom of the Ancients: Fear of the Enemy Keeps the State in Good Order 09:48 Anti-White Racism Destroys Military Strength and Readiness 17:19 Has Nuclear Deterrence Made Wartime Annihilation Obsolete? 28:00 Replacement Migration: A Form of Unarmed Conquest? 38:34 Civic Nationalism vs. Human Nature 54:07 The Working Class Revolt Against Globalism 57:47 Trump 2025: Mass Deportations and Taking on the Deep State 🌐 FIND The EuroCon website: https://europeanconservative.com/ 👍 LIKE The EuroCon on Facebook: / theeurocon ✅ FOLLOW The EuroCon on Twitter: / euroconofficial 👉 FOLLOW The EuroCon on GETTR: https://gettr.com/user/eurocon
The Forge with Harrison Pitt | Ep. 4: The End Times? | Victor Davis Hanson
You thought the right-wing shift would finally give a fair representation to the millions of conservatives across Europe? Well, think again. The centre-left ignored the election results and decided it would be “business as usual” in Brussels not just by reappointing Ursula von der Leyen as President of the Commission and reaffirming their support for the disastrous policies of the Migration pact and the Green Deal but also by announcing a “cordon sanitaire” of non-cooperation and undemocratic exclusion around the insurgent right-wing parties, to ensure that EU politics is vaccinated against what they call the “virus” of populism.   MEP Hermann Tertsch represinting the Spanish Vox party and MEP Enikő Győri from Fidesz provide insights into the mainstream’s insidious backroom deals and how the silenced Patriots for Europe, the third largest group in the European Parliament is trying to rescue conservative votes.

In this episode, Harrison is joined by Rafe Heydel-Mankoo, the historian, royal commentator, and much-loved senior fellow at the New Culture Forum. In a gently sunlit drawing room at the Cavalry & Guards Club near Piccadilly, they discuss the case against reparations for slavery and colonialism, as well as the 'decolonisation' movement's dangerous combination of historical illiteracy and resentful ethno-politics.

In a world driven by technological progress and utilitarian goals, the value of a liberal arts education is often questioned. But could it be that the liberal arts are more essential than ever in helping us navigate the complexities of modern life? In this episode of Reality Check, we are joined by Dr. Margarita Mooney, a passionate advocate for the liberal arts and the founder of the Scala Foundation. Dr. Mooney argues that a liberal arts education provides the tools necessary for holistic personal development, fostering a love for lifelong learning and a deeper understanding of the human experience. We explore the challenges facing liberal arts education today, including its perceived elitism and the pressure to prioritize ‘useful’ education over intellectual curiosity. This conversation is a powerful reminder of the enduring importance of the liberal arts in shaping not just informed citizens, but whole persons capable of leading meaningful lives. https://margaritamooneyclayton.com/ https://ptsem.edu/faculty/margarita-mooney-clayton/ 🌐 FIND The EuroCon website: https://europeanconservative.com/ 👍 LIKE The EuroCon on Facebook: / theeurocon ✅ FOLLOW The EuroCon on Twitter: / euroconofficial 👉 FOLLOW The EuroCon on GETTR: https://gettr.com/user/eurocon

The relationship between psychology and Christianity has often been fraught with tension, with some viewing these fields as fundamentally incompatible. But is there a way to harmonize the insights of modern psychology with the truths of the Christian faith? In this episode of Reality Check, we are joined by Sean Brooks, a psychologist and theologian, to explore the synergies between these two disciplines. Brooks argues that psychology, when properly understood, can complement and even enhance the spiritual life, offering valuable tools for personal growth and healing. We discuss the historical coexistence of psychology and Christianity, the challenges posed by modern mechanistic views of humanity, and the importance of recognizing the soul’s role in mental health. This conversation offers a holistic perspective on mental well-being that integrates the best of both psychological science and Christian spirituality.

There was no major upset, or a huge earthquake but the centre-right and conservative groups both gained seats, while the Left, the liberals and the Greens lost a considerable number of MEPs. Anti-establishment parties also faired well and could have an impact on how European policy is made in the next five years.

The European Conservative's editor-in-chief recently sat down with Václav Klaus to discuss the state of Europe today, whether EU institutions can (or should) be reformed, and why it's harder today to share heterodox views than it was during communism. Václav Klaus is an economist and former president of the Czech Republic. He served as the second president of the Czech Republic from 2003 to 2013. From July 1992 until the dissolution of Czechoslovakia in January 1993, he served as the second and last prime minister of the Czech Republic while it was a federal subject of the Czech and Slovak Federative Republic, and then as the first prime minister of the newly independent Czech Republic from 1993 to 1998. 🌐 FIND The EuroCon website: https://europeanconservative.com/ 👍 LIKE The EuroCon on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheEuroCon ✅ FOLLOW The EuroCon on Twitter: https://twitter.com/EuroConOfficial 👉 FOLLOW The EuroCon on GETTR: https://gettr.com/user/eurocon
