More ad more of you are signing up for our weekly ethics podcast. It's called Everyday Ethics, and it's a chance to explore some of the major ethical debates of the week. This week, you can listen again to my interview with Dr Edward Green, the controversial HIV prevention expert who has defended Pope Benedict's claim that condoms are making the problem of African Aids even worse. Also on this week's podcast, after the publication of Northern Ireland's new abortion guidelines: are we all now any clearer about when an abortion is lawful here and when it isn't? Would condom ads during Coronation Street help to reduce the UK's teen pregnancy rate? And we talk to the General Medical Council about moral dilemmas at the end of life and why they want to change their guidelines for doctors. Everyday Ethics is a free download. Find it here. Many people have told us it's a great way to stay in touch with the moral and ethical debates of the week.
