Counting Lives : Integrity in a Time Like This
Episode 72
Sunday, 25 January, 2026

In this episode, we delve into the profound poem 'The Pedagogy of Conflict' by Pádraig Ó Tuama, exploring themes of integrity, hypocrisy, and the sanctity of life. Drawing connections to current social and political unrest, we urge a return to core moral values and faith-based principles. Through self-examination, prayer, and community support, we emphasize the importance of acting with integrity and love, encouraging everyone to reflect on their actions and live by their deepest beliefs. This reflective piece calls for both personal and collective responsibility in pursuit of a just and compassionate society. 00:00 Reflecting on Pádraig Ó Tuama's Poem 01:03 Counting Lives and Recent Events 02:20 Exploring Hypocrisy and Integrity 04:21 A Call to Law Enforcement and Government Agents 06:40 Lessons from the Civil Rights Movement 07:56 Actions of Faith and Integrity 10:09 Concluding Thoughts on Love and Integrity #CountingLives #Integrity #HumanDignity #PeopleOfFaith #FaithInPublicLife #CommonGood #Nonviolence
