Kresta in the Afternoon – October 29, 2008 – Hour 2

• Description:

  First Topic – Fighting for pro-life, pro-family policies at the UN

  It was this week in 1945 that the United Nations was formally established. We look at the history of the body and the current fights that the Culture and Family Institute are engaged in there. From abortion to gay “rights,” Austin Ruse is on the front lines of the fight at the UN. He joins us.

  Second Topic – The Church, the UN, and the Common Good

  We continue our look at the UN by analyzing the Church's support throughout the years and the current presence of the Church at the U.N. What role does the Church have? What reception does the Vatican receive there? Has the U.N. outlived its usefulness? These and other questions answered by Jane Adolphe, who has served the United Nations by participating in conferences on children’s rights and the International Criminal Court and most recently as a delegate of the Holy See.
