Canada May Consider Euthanizing Disabled Newborn Babies
This past September several international media stories on Canada's MAiD program have re-ignited the baby MAiD debate. The British newspaper Daily Mail asked the CMQ for an update on its stance and was told the organization now believes "medical assistance in dying may be an appropriate treatment for babies suffering from extreme pain" and that "parents should have the opportunity to obtain this care for their infant."

The FDA and the Dangers of Chemical Abortion
Audio recording of Dr. Ryan Anderson, President of the Ethics and Public Policy Center on the topic of dangers of chemical abortions.

Debunking the Myth of the Transgender Child
Mia Hughes: "This devastating convergence of medical, political, and cultural forces ensured that countless innocent children--rather than being given the freedom to grow, mature, and explore different identities--were locked into a lifetime of medicalization, embodying an identity imposed on them before they were old enough to understand what was at stake."

How To Actually Quit Porn This Year

Even the Corrupt Media Couldn't Save Tim Walz's Career
For days, a corrupt national media refused to follow up on evidence provided by Shirley that Somali immigrants were thieving potentially billions of dollars in public funds by running fake daycare centres.

Counterfeit Connections: The Rise of AI Romantic Companions
The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has surged in recent years, with users of AI platforms now numbering in the billions around the globe. Despite this growth, little attention has been paid to how AI technologies may impact real human relationships. In particular, very little is known about how the emergence of AI relationship platforms that replicate romantic and sexual interactions may impact dating and marriage relationships, as well as the personal well-being of the users of these technologies. A deeper understanding of these trends is needed, as a recent IFS study recently found that 1 in 4 young adults think AI boyfriends and girlfriends could replace real-life romance.

The relationship between divorce and kids has always been a hot button in the discourse. That kids are affected by divorce is quite clear. But while the immediate effects of divorce go mostly undisputed, many doubt that divorce has a lasting impact into adulthood.

Five Reasons Porn is Bad For Your Marriage
Viewing pornography has become one of the most common sexual behaviors among modern adults. Recent estimates suggest that anywhere from 50 to 70% of adult men and women view pornography on a regular basis. This has made pornography use an increasingly "normal" behavior and led many men and women and even some experts to question whether pornography use is really that big of a deal. The argument goes something like this, "How can something so common be harmful to relationships?" and "People in relationships who use porn often seem on the surface to be perfectly happy and healthy, so what's the big deal?"

Loneliness: Public Enemy #1 for Elderly

As I approach my eighty-sixth year, the twilight of life is bringing new challenges. Beyond the increasing aches and pains, psychological sufferings have come to the fore and demand greater attention than before, with loneliness the most prominent. In some societies this trend is starkly visible: for example, in Japan in 2025, people aged 65 and older make up nearly 30% of the population, and an estimated 70% of them report feelings of loneliness. What is loneliness? Even though it walks beside us, does it define who we are? Continue reading at Fr. Jerry's Blog...

New! Perfectionism vs Perfection

Douglas McManaman
Holiness, unfortunately, is often confused with sanctimony, and sanctimony tends to get mixed in with perfectionism, which in turn is usually a means of shaming others - children in particular. But holiness is not perfectionism. Holiness is love; holiness is charity.

New! The sexual revolution and abortion (3)

Ann Farmer
In a post-Christian society, the revolution's message is pleasure without limits, but unlimited debauchery has led to diminishing returns, a reminder that the hungry man appreciates food more than the glutton; that the Victorian factory worker appreciated his annual day out at Blackpool more than modern man and woman enjoy their endless foreign vacations. However, according to sexual revolutionaries, the fall of man began with Christianity; consequently, humanity must return to a more civilized paganism. But although pre-Christian societies were highly sophisticated, so were their methods of torture and killing; their attitude to weakness was to trample on it.

New! The End of a Regime? Understanding the Extraction of Maduro

Angel Alvarado
The story of Maduro's extraction is not a tale of foreign intervention. It is a story of internal collapse, human suffering, and the eventual recognition - by Venezuelans and by the world - that a government cannot indefinitely destroy the lives of its citizens without facing consequences.

The Judicial Oath and the Judgment of History

William H. Pryor, Jr.
My oath, with God as witness, to uphold the rule of law must matter more than the judgment of any peer or historian

The Safer Sex Illusion

John B. Shea
For human beings, freedom of choice is a given. This is not to say that all of our actions or bodily functions are under voluntary control, but that we have both the intelligence to discriminate between options, and the capacity to select them. We do not always possess, however, the power to determine in advance what the outcome or consequences of our choices are going to be. This sobering fact is relevant to one of the great challenges faced today by the medical profession; how to eradicate an epidemic of sexually transmitted disease which, in some countries, has reached the dimensions of a plague.

Nepal: Police must follow due process in arrest and investigation

Asia Human Rights
More than a dozen police personnel broke the lock of the gate and harassed his wife and children before manhandling and arresting Dr. Raut. The lack of due process in his arrest is a matter of concern.

Warning: Who's leading palliative care now?

Elizabeth Wickham
Beware of medicine's newest craze: palliative care. The hype has only just begun. We have seen an article in AARP Magazine, and a column in the New York Times; and like old Doc Kilmer peddling his Swamp Root Remedy, palliative care's promoters are promising everything from no pain to longer life. But palliative care, if not properly understood, can be deadly. The foremost concern is that palliative care will become yet another tool in right-to-die's imposed death toolkit.

Contraception: The Bacteria Devouring America's Soul

Judie Brown
It's high time many more Catholic leaders in the U.S. stood up and clarified the difference between good and evil, right and wrong, sinfulness and sinlessness. Why?

Swallowing The Bitter Pill

Ron Panzer
Those who work with the dying witness the waves of challenging losses that arise as death approaches. We see pain on the physical, emotional and psychological level and the anguish of those who are about to lose the one they love. Patients sometimes share their fears and spiritual struggles as they contemplate losing everything they know and face their impending death. There are all sorts of interactions between family members, friends and other visitors. But, contrary to what one might imagine, the dying process is not always experienced as the dark and depressing time many imagine.

A look at the risks of egg donation

Michael Cook
"Maggie's Story" is the fourth in a series of videos about "eggsploitation", the dark side of egg donation. Maggie was a 19-year-old altruistic donor who donated eggs 10 times, even though the recommended limit is six.

Breadwinner Moms
What Is the Media Celebrating?

John Stonestreet
Marshall reminds us that, "We live in an era in which traditional life scripts have broken down, especially when it comes to sex, marriage and childbearing. Feminists portray this as liberating, but for many, the outcomes are anything but liberating."

Penn State's ironic 'child sex abuse' conference
Exclusive: Judith Reisman counters 'sexperts' who claim number of assaults are waning

Judith Reisman
The objection to sex offender registration as "draconian measures" is more predator-protector language, as is, "Children may like the attention," and "not all victims experience problems." These claims are disingenuous since problems develop throughout the life cycle and there is no way to assess that truth. "Kids having problems prior to the abuse put them at risk of being abused" again lays the blame on the children. All this while hiding the role of mainlining pornography as the primary culprit in child-on-child and adult-on-child sex abuse.

Olympic spirits ...

Ron Panzer
While Olympics sporting competitions promise international cooperation and friendship, war continues in several parts of the world. This tempting promise is made by a pagan, Satanic culture that is anti-Christian in all it does. The mockery of Christ and His apostles in the opening ceremony was despicable, and the quasi religious hymns sung in closing are counterfeit Christian-sounding, but still Satanic frauds.
