Would you belong and pay dues to a foreign organization that is anti-morality and anti-marriage? If not, why do we allow the United States to use our taxpayers' money to pay dues for membership in UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization)? “The Scientists” Want To Loosen Definition Of “Brain Death”
Comment: While this loosening of the brain death definition is frightening, we already have non-heartbeating organ donation that does not even require a definition of brain death. And too few organ donor card signers are even aware of either of these issues. On top of this lack of informed consent, we also have more and more states passing laws mandating organ donation for card signers even over family objections. -Nancy Valko, RN More Headlines…

Ethical Perspectives Judie Brown
When I first learned that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration had lied about how the birth control pill worked, way back in the mid-1970s, I was incredulous. It never occurred to me that a public official or government agency would deny the facts by simply not mentioning them. Boy, was I naïve! ... There is a flurry of news regarding the possibility that reprogrammed cells, from umbilical cord blood, could be an ethical replacement for the research currently being done using human embryonic stem cells.†Since a human embryo must die in order for his or her stem cells to be used, the use of those cells is totally unethical and immoral. So could the news about the reprogrammed cord blood cells be positive or simply another sham? Jeremiah R. Grosse
The doctor-patient relationship is based upon trust. In order for a physician to properly treat a patient it is essential that the patient feel comfortable with his or her doctor so that sensitive and important information be provided. The patient, for his or her part, believes that any information provided to the physician will be kept confidential, provided that the patient has no intention of hurting herself or others. Based upon her professional training and knowledge of a given patient, the physician is in the best situation to whether that person has the capacity to be able to handle difficult or painful information and it is essential that information be provided clearly and in a way that the patient clearly understands what is being said. Lying undermines trust and once that trust is gone the doctor-patient relationship is over. Patrick Guinan
Hippocrates (460-377 BC), acknowledged to be the father of medicine, trained students and taught at the Asklepieion of Kos, a healing temple. He authored many of the books subsequently known as the Hippocratic Corpus. This was a collection of about seventy early medical works compiled by Hippocrates or his disciples, the most important of which was certainly the Hippocratic Oath, written in the latter half of the fourth century BC. In this brief essay, I want to touch on the importance of Greek philosophy, particularly natural law and virtue, in the development of medicine; the place of ethics, or a sense of right and wrong, in medical practice; the value of philanthropia, meaning one's relationship to mankind and, for the physician, the love for one's patients; and the Christian ideal of compassion.

My brothers and sisters in Christ, how we exercise our political power is very much a part of our relationship with God. Since many things that we believe as Catholics can also be known through human reason, we have the moral obligation to vote in a way that is consistent with these beliefs. And we can do so with the sure knowledge that we are not imposing our private beliefs on others.

Is there a practice of Obstetrics and Gynaecology which accommodates committed Catholics? Nearly all the evidence suggests the answer is 'No'. The practice of abortion has largely closed the profession to them. Anthony Zimmerman
Father Zimmerman believes that population problems in Asia and elsewhere can be attacked only by developing the economy and strengthening family life. When this is done, he believes, there will be a natural stabilization of population.

Extensive human cloning, and other forms of human genetic engineering -- all of which can asexually reproduce new living single-cell human organisms (human beings) -- are already being done in IVF clinics, for both "research" and for "reproductive" purposes. Below are just two published research studies documenting (1) the various kinds of human cloning techniques available to IVF "clinics", and (2) an example of how it is already being done.

Many in the pro-life movement are reluctant to make a connection between contraception and abortion. They insist that these are two very different acts -- that there is all the difference in the world between contraception, which prevents a life from coming to be and abortion, which takes a life that has already begun. Let's take a look at the facts.
