Abortion is NOT About Morality

Abortion is NOT About Morality

Author: Francis Tapon May 27, 2022 Duration: 22:49

The most contentious issue in US politics is abortion.


It is also the most misunderstood.


In this WanderLearn Show, I'll show you that polar opposite sides of the abortion debate agree with each other. 


Both sides are armed with irrelevant moral issues that distract from the main issue.


In our effort to simplify the debate and demonize the opposite side, we lose all nuance.


Share this podcast with whoever you're debating and perhaps you can find some common ground or at least you'll understand what is the true source of your disagreement.


Be sure to watch the show until the end, when I lighten up the serious topic.

There's a certain kind of travel that changes you, not just your location. It’s the slow, immersive kind where the journey itself becomes the teacher. In WanderLearn: Travel to Transform Your Mind & Life, Francis Tapon acts as your guide into this world, exploring how leaving familiar ground can fundamentally reshape your perspective. This isn't about quick tips or itineraries; it's about the deeper conversations that happen at the crossroads of culture, society, and personal growth. Each episode delves into how we engage with places and people, often weaving in discussions about the role of modern technology in both enabling and complicating these profound experiences. You'll hear stories and insights that challenge the conventional tourist mindset, pushing toward a more thoughtful, engaged way of moving through the world. Francis draws from a wealth of experience to discuss concepts like vagabonding and deep travel, making the case that the greatest souvenirs aren't trinkets, but transformed thoughts. Tuning into this podcast feels like sitting down with a well-traveled friend who understands that the real destination is often a shift within yourself. It’s for anyone who believes that travel, at its best, is a powerful catalyst for learning and living differently.
