Summary

Patrick dives into the heartfelt inquiry about the impact of romantic comedies on single women, comparing it to how pornography affects men. Patrick Madrid thoughtfully addresses this concern, discussing the differences and potential emotional effects of such media. He elaborates on why romantic comedies, generally speaking, do not equate to the moral weight of pornography. Additionally, Patrick touches upon biblical narratives that resonate with themes of romantic pursuit and the personal experience of St. Teresa of Avila with romance novels.

Liz – Are romantic comedies for single women the equivalent of porn? (05:34)
Joel (email) – I love how kids are calling into the show!
Caroline - I'm looking for a book that gives perspective on assisted suicide. My daughter has been convinced by the arguments in favor of assisted suicide. Do you have recommendations? (18:43)
Bob - How did Mary, without sin, reside in her mother's womb if she was without sin? (26:28)
Elena - I was discussing the protests yesterday with my 23-year old daughter yesterday. I asked my daughter why the protesters were so angry. She said they're mad because we're sending weapons to Israel. She said we grew up with mass shootings and the government didn't do anything about it. (35:15)
James – What’s the best way to break free from a pornography addiction? (46:41)

0:00.0	Compelling insights, unpredictable conversations,
0:12.6	encouragement for your day.
0:14.7	It's the Patrick Madrid show on Relevant Radio.
0:17.9	Come on, man.
0:20.0	All right, all right. Give me a chance. Give me a chance. 88-9149-9-149. Is the number to call to be on the air, 888, 914-9-149-49. Emails, Patrick at RelevantRadio.com. I have a note here from Caroline. She's listening in Philadelphia. Thanks for sending me a note, Caroline. She says,
0:39.4	and she's referring to a call I took earlier today in the first hour. Actually, no, it wasn't a call.
0:45.2	It was an email from somebody who works at a company that does inspections. And among the places
0:53.3	they have to inspect is an abortion clinic.
0:57.4	And she was wondering, you know, is that morally compromising for her,
1:01.7	even though she herself doesn't have to do those inspections,
1:04.8	should she opt out?
1:06.1	Should she find another job is what she asked?
1:08.1	So here is Caroline's comment. She says, well, I abhor anything
1:12.8	related to abortion. If the woman does inspect abortion clinics and finds that a clinic is out of
1:17.6	compliance, could that not potentially be a step toward closing it down? Yes. Yeah, I hadn't thought
1:22.4	about that, but yeah, that makes total sense. She is more likely to not let even the smallest transgression go unnoted
1:29.1	while someone supporting abortion could quote unquote look the other way. That's true.
1:33.4	I like to think that most women who go to a clinic for an abortion are most likely feeling
1:39.6	they have no choice, but their health could be at stake if, say, the place is not in compliance with
1:45.0	cleanliness, et cetera. I agree, and I'll pause there. I've heard, or I've seen, I should say,
1:50.6	in the media over the years any number of stories of women who die because of unsanitary conditions
