Dear Friends for Life: Many individuals in today's society understand the pain felt by mothers after they have aborted their babies. But what about Post-Abortion Syndrome which affects men? As the body count of unborn babies continues to increase, research shows that more and more fathers are desperately crying out in pain as a result of these abortions. While browsing google on this topic, I ran across the following article: "My 'Friend' Assumed I'd Be Pro Abortion for Cleft Babies Like Mine & He's Dead Wrong". This, in turn, resulted in writing on abortion and unborn babies with cleft lip. "I leaned down and kissed my son."

To be alive to God, one has to be dead to the world. This is a basic principle of the spiritual life. The less one is dead to the world, the less that person is alive to God. R. J. Snell
These essays are not provided out of callousness or a lack of empathy, but if we are to be responsible, we must be well-informed so that we can judge and choose in keeping with the truth of things. Daniel Kane
The enduring source of the Children of Israel's exceptional, future-oriented natalism is their intense, equally exceptional rootedness in their shared past. Antonio Graceffo
The economic crisis caused by Myanmar's civil war is a humanitarian catastrophe, fuelling hunger, desperation - and the sale of human organs. Shenan J. Boquet
For thousands of years, people have found ways to kill unwanted babies. From taking pills to tearing a child to pieces prior to birth to even throwing a baby off a cliff, it often seems that any method will do. Parents seek only the end result - being rid of the baby.

A young woman dissolves the sugar coating on the contraceptive pill and exposes its harmful, anti-woman core. Eric Metaxas
Jesus cared passionately about prisoners. Throw in what he said about little ones and millstones, and we'd better care about juvenile offenders.

A powerful antidote to such atomistic existence, loneliness, and alienation, is found in the family: productive, resilient, and together. A family-centered life with the home as the engine of education and economics orders one's vocations and roles in ways that build lasting familial bonds and provide stability amid a changing world. COVID-19 quarantining provides an opportunity for this reality to sink in. Helen Watt
Cloning involves the production of a child to predetermined specifications: a child who will have no genetic parents in the true sense of the term. If the child created dies in the lab, to provide stem cells for someone else's use, this is hardly an improvement. Embryos are not raw material for our medical or scientific projects. They are young human beings, whose lives and bodies ought to be respected. Judith Reisman
Heeding the "free trade" rhetoric describing GATT, one would think its speedy passage meant greater international trade with governments elected by and accountable to an informed, literate electorate, all of whom share America's legal and moral standards. Those concerned about our yoke to foreign nations and multi-national powers (outlined in GATT's 22,000 pages plus) may find reason for larger concerns when examining the organized, decades long, international traffic in drugs, child labor and heterosexual and homosexual child prostitution and child pornography. David G. Bonagura, Jr.
Laws and moral prohibitions - even seemingly obvious ones like the prohibition of killing innocents - do not function in a vacuum; their meanings and powers stem from a prior metaphysical order, independent of any individual's perception, in which they originate and can be understood. Sheila Liaugmina
He's supposed to be the rock, the head of the family, the protector, in the right order of things. But classic family identity roles are under tremendous cultural pressure and social commentators won't dare talk in those terms anymore. That doesn't change the truth. Asia Human Rights
We wish to stop Nepal from the critical situation of entering into a civil war again because of institutional corruption another human rights abuses such as murder, rape and abductions. We therefore call on the international community and the Asian Human Rights Commission, to take note of the atrocious situation currently occurring in Nepal. Charles J. Chaput
A culture ultimately defines its moral character by the value it places on each human life, particularly those lives which seem burdensome, inconsequential or unworthy. Violent criminals present an especially difficult moral challenge for us, because their own cruelty has forced them to the margins of society. Recognizing a criminal's humanity is difficult when our hearts are clouded by anger and pain. Nathanael Blake
Excessive efforts to control the givenness of our children's lives reveal our doubt that life is a good gift in itself. They also show a vision of human flourishing that is dependent upon material prosperity, personal achievements, and social status.
