Summary

Today, I chat with Jimmy Akin about whether it is moral for Catholics (and anyone for that matter) to get covid-19 vaccines.

The main document we will be referencing is "Note on the morality of using some anti-Covid-19 vaccines": http://www.vatican.va/roman_curia/congregations/cfaith/documents/rc_con_cfaith_doc_20201221_nota-vaccini-anticovid_en.html

Hello, hello, and welcome to Pints with Aquinas.

0:02.9

My name is Matt Fraad, and today joined around the proverbial bar table with me.

0:07.6

Will be my good friend, Catholic Apologist Jimmy Aiken.

0:11.3

Today, we're going to be discussing a recent document put out by the congregation for the

0:15.7

doctrine of the faith called note on the morality of using some anti-COVID-19 vaccines.

0:22.4

Our plan is to read through this document, which isn't terribly long.

0:25.9

It's about one page, one and a half pages, so that you can be really well-informed.

0:29.9

About what the church is actually teaching regarding this.

0:33.6

I think sometimes we can hear things, and we don't actually kind of see what the church has said herself.

0:39.4

So we're going to be reading through that, pausing throughout for commentary, and then we'll do that for about 30 minutes,

0:45.0

and then we'll start to take some questions from patrons and superchadders.

0:48.4

So if you're in the chat box, it would be great to hear from you.

0:51.3

And, you know, if you disagree with what we're saying today, if you disagree with what the CDF has said, that's okay.

0:56.2

More than willing to take objections or arguments or whatever you might have regarding this.

1:02.3

I know this is a hot topic right now, and I'm really pleased that Jimmy's here to help us hash it out.

1:07.3

1:32.5
