Father Tad joins Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P., and Fr. Bonaventure Chapman, O.P., on their Godsplaining Catholic Podcast to focus on the bioethical topic of “Cooperation in Evil.” They discuss several scenarios, ranging from participating in different roles such as a nurse or a groundskeeper at an abortion clinic to questions surrounding cooperation with evil when using the HEK-293 cell line in research laboratories. HEK-293 is a cell line derived from a direct abortion in 1972 and widely utilized by researchers, pharmaceutical companies and graduate students around the world. The Dominican Friars and Father Tad offer some guidelines for assessing these real life situations.
