Thank you so much, Pam - it's great to hear that this follow-up actually clarified things for people in addition to apologizing for my previous errors.

I didn't listen to the original episode but I did listen to the retraction and apology. I had to come to the website to comment. What you said very much helped me clarify the confusion I had about the vaccine. The most clarifying statement was that the vaccine manufacturers are really to blame that we feel like we are violating our conscience by taking the shots. Big Pharm is not listening to prolife arguments and are making no effort to produce morally licit vaccines. I applaud you. Pam P.

The passions have been running without restraint during this national ordeal. This is one of the only times I have seen someone on the internet say "I was wrong" Thank you for your work, honesty, and charity.

It took character, courage and humility to say:I was wrong, I’m sorry, I accept with docility the Church’s magisterial teaching. What a great example to all of us, your listeners! This podcast has deepened my respect for you & also my trust in the integrity of your work.
