There is a passionate conversation taking place throughout America right now about ethicsIn homes, headlines, and hearts many are weighing the competing goods of reviving the economy vs. prioritizing public health, assessing the sanctity of human life, and considering the narrative of meaning (or lack thereof) that we should view this pandemic through.
