"My Voice, My Choice" and the Silence Beneath It
The Church reminds the modern world that voice itself is a gift, received before it is exercised. Perhaps the most urgent question is not whose voice will prevail, but whether we still remember the One who spoke us into being. Pope Leo Blasts Abortion: "Every Human Life Must be Safeguarded From Conception"
The Pope told Spanish lawmakers that ?every human life must be recognized and safeguarded from conception to its natural end, in every circumstance of its existence.? The Porn Industry Doesn't Just Sell Sex, It Sells Violent Abuse of Women
Violence against women is common in mainstream pornography, yet many viewers may not recognize how frequently aggression is portrayed as normal or desirable. This article explores the research on violence in porn and examines how repeated exposure to these messages can influence attitudes toward women, sex, and consent. Aborting Babies Because They Have Down Syndrome is Wrong. Period. End of Story
Targeting unborn children for abortion because they carry an extra chromosome is wrong. Period. End of story. Pope Leo XIV: 'The elderly can be life teachers'
"The elderly, in serene acceptance of the limitations imposed by the passing years--without hiding them or being ashamed of them--can be life teachers, able to show everyone--and especially young people--that the value of a life is not measured by efficiency or self-sufficiency, but by the capacity to love and to be loved, to give and to receive." U.S. bishops consecrate nation to Sacred Heart of Jesus
The U.S. bishops consecrated the nation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus on June 11, entrusting the United States to Christ's merciful love during a solemn Mass as part of their spring plenary assembly. When it Comes to Abortion, Men Should Have a Voice Too
We've collectively been so inundated with the "fact" that abortion is a "woman's decision" that it's difficult to remember that this is an absurd proposition on a gazillion different levels. Germany's Trans Laws are a Threat to Women, Free Speech, and Common Sense
Germany is becoming a world leader in transgender confusion. Since its implementation in 2024, the country's Self-Determination Act has given rise to an increasing number of surreal court proceedings. One such case--which, fortunately, ended in an acquittal earlier this month--involved the chairperson of a feminist group called 'Frauenheldinnen,' an organisation that has been battling the transgender spell. New Report Shows Abortions Killed 99,470 Babies in January
A new report from the Guttmacher Institute from its Monthly Abortion Provision Study estimates a total of 99,470 abortions for January 2026. The estimate follows a Guttmacher calculation of 1,126,470 abortions for all of 2025, or an average of 93,872 abortions per month for that year. UK transgender bathroom ban is the latest setback for the LGBT lobby
Because the landmark 2025 UK Supreme Court ruling stating that 'sex' in the Equality Act refers only to biological sex -- rather than 'gender identity,' as trans activists claimed -- the transgender movement has faced setback after setback. After being almost entirely conquered by the trans movement in less than a decade, the pendulum has been swinging back in the UK. More Headlines…

Editorial
Worthy? Who decides? When hospitals, media, and policy accept ending or withholding life for the vulnerable, I see how we begin to treat some people as less than fully human - problems to manage rather than neighbors to love. In this article I ask who judges a life's value and move from institutions to the everyday moments where dignity is made or denied: a hurried bedside conversation, a refused invitation, a steady presence. Drawing on my Catholic faith, Scripture, and stories of the elderly, disabled, and marginalized, I examine how assumptions about usefulness erode worth and offer practical compassion - listening, shared meals, sacramental care - that restores dignity and says, "You matter."

Pope Leo XIV's first encyclical confronts the promises and perils of artificial intelligence, urging humanity to defend human dignity in an increasingly dehumanised age. Gregory E. Ganssle
Both Jesus and Nietzsche announce in the same sort of bold terms their own visions of life and death; prosperity and adversity. They set before us two paths to consider: one leading toward the flourishing life and one leading toward death. One toward liberation and one into oppression. Which path will we choose? Shenan J. Boquet
Euthanasia is a false solution to the drama of suffering, a solution that is not worthy of man. The real answer cannot be, in fact, to give death, as 'gentle' as this may be, but to testify to the love that helps us to face pain and agony in a humane way. Beatrice Scudeler
For a generation marked by a noticeable gender split on political beliefs as well as by ever declining marriage rates, it would seem that young women still retain a desire for a specific vision of manhood. But what exactly is that vision? Calvin Barnes
My hope in writing this article is that people come to truly understand the magnitude of abortion and that the pain it causes can last a lifetime. I suppose I will continue to adapt, but I will never get over the untimely death of my preborn child.

Of the many issues debated about perennially, few have the potential to save lives like defunding nation's number one abortion provider - Planned Parenthood. Shannon Roberts
Why Canadian parents say no to three Brian Clowes
One of the most persuasive arguments that homosexual activists use to support their agenda is the assertion that 10% of all people are "gay." If homosexuals can convince people that they make up a much larger portion of the population than they actually represent, they are much more likely to garner support for their agenda. Even many ostensibly objective media will parrot this number. Dianne N. Irving
The following responses to Dr. Maureen Condic's "science" presented in her interview on "when human life begins" with the National Catholic Register were written independently, and sent to the NCR and related others. They are copied here as sent. Such overtly erroneous "science" could be used to "justify" human cloning, human embryonic stem cell research, human reproductive genetic engineering, the use of abortifacients - whether the early human embryo is sexually or asexually reproduced, in vivo or in vitro. Such erroneous "science" needs to be identified, especially for those with little or no scientific background. Dr. Condic's interview follows at the end. Michael Cook
Respect for conscience and conscientious objection is being eroded in the medical profession. Judie Brown
As sensible pro-life people who choose not to be mainstreamed by the contortions of the media, we proclaim that our work to defend innocent human persons occurs because we are all children of God and therefore individually far more important than a number in a math equation. Asia Human Rights
We, at Coalition Against Summary Execution (CASE)*, condemn in the strongest terms the Supreme Court's decision granting the Solicitor General’s petition for Quo Warranto against Chief Justice Maria Lourdes Sereno. Tom Bartolomeo
Then there is a moment of respite in the story of conflict between good and evil and our sinful passions which reap a whirlwind of death and disease. You would think that divorce, Aids, sexually transmitted diseases and the psychological wounds of contraception, abortion and sterilization would be enough to dissuade us from such conduct. But in that moment, Jesus takes "a child . . . places it in their midst, and putting his arms around it, he said to them, 'Whoever receives one child such as this in my name, receives me; and whoever receives me, receives not me but the One who sent me'." Steven Mosher
For several decades the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) has used children to fundraise on its behalf, collecting over $100 million in nickels, dimes and quarters. Having children "Trick or treat for UNICEF," as the slogan went, was seen as a way for privileged American children to help poor, hungry and sick boys and girls elsewhere. But..... Eric Metaxas
Martin Luther said, "To go against conscience is neither right nor safe."
