Father's Heartbreaking Letter to His Aborted Daughter: "Goodbye, Darling Pilgrim, I love you - - Dad." He began his column with this question: "What do you tell an unborn daughter that was aborted 40 years ago by its mother?" Softball Hall of Famer on the Future of Men in Women's Sports - 'Girls Are Going to Get Wiped Out' As the ridiculous battle over biological men playing in women's sports inexplicably rages on, the most inexplicable thing that has come from it is actual women who either really cannot see the implications, both physical and otherwise, or are too afraid to admit to the alphabet mafia that they really do and won't speak up. After 10 Years of Covering the Trans Madness, Here's What I Learned Journalist Brandon Showalter recaps the horrors of the transgender movement: "Those of us who've been doing the hard work exposing the madness against an impenetrable mainstream media blockade can all tell you what it's like to learn about all the horrors, only to be gaslit with flat denials like 'that's not happening.' Then you show concrete proof, and it becomes 'well, it's only a few people,' and then maybe 'why are you so obsessed with this small, strange issue?'." Climate alarm 'blaring from every direction' Climate-driven disasters are reaching "nightmare proportions" due to humanity's "addiction" to fossil fuels, a top UN official warned on Tuesday. Mifepristone as a Public Health Issue Do not dismiss the complaint as some pro-life ruse. There has been a dramatic shift from surgical to pharmaceutical abortion. The active agents in mifepristone - the first of the two "abortion pills" - remain active post-excretion, i.e., they enter public water systems. The second pill induces contractions that result in expulsion of embryonic and fetal remains, along with other uterine contents. Colorado Teen Dies From Planned Parenthood Abortion. Media Is Mum A Colorado teen died after undergoing an abortion through Planned Parenthood, though the media and local officials have tried to bury the story.

Editorial
Remembering the People: Today, as we remember Nagasaki, I do not want simply to speak about an event in history. I want us to remember people - fathers and mothers, children and grandparents, students and workers, priests and religious sisters - whose lives were suddenly destroyed on August 9, 1945.
As a Catholic priest who has lived and served in Japan for 61 years, I have come to understand that Nagasaki is not simply a place on a map. Nagasaki is a sacred place of memory. It is a place where the history of Japan, the history of the Catholic Church, and the tragedy of war come together. Continue reading at Fr. Jerry's Blog... Ethical Perspectives Ben Peterson The war on spiritual poverty is worth fighting, and we need foot soldiers and generals who are willing to wage it. Shenan J. Boquet Is the world facing an existentially threatening crisis of overpopulation? Until a few years ago, practically every major Western politician, institution, and media outlet was in lockstep. Yes, the world was overpopulated. And it was only going to get worse, with consequences including ecological disaster, warfare, famine, hunger, and poverty. Dan Hart Since the Supreme Court handed down its Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade four years ago Wednesday, allowing dozens of states to establish laws protecting unborn babies, abortions have nonetheless almost doubled in the U.S. due to the abortion pill, which is being shipped from dozens of domestic and international vendors across state lines in violation of dozens of state pro-life laws. Roi Yozevitch An AI does not only "remember" all the words. But as any ChatGPT user can testify, it finds connections between different sources, summarizes them, generates challenging questions, and even deduces new insights. It can therefore seem as though these machines are well-versed in almost any topic. Joseph A. DeAngelo The work, eleven years in, begins with honesty; the admission that Obergefell was not a neutral expansion of rights but a substitution of one set of duties for another, and that the duties it displaced were owed chiefly to children.
Anthony Zimmerman Nature, however, expects man who is guided by reason and directive natural inclinations, to understand life as he lives it forward. When man ignores nature's teachings, nature automatically strikes back as if trying to bring man back to his senses. Perhaps this is what AIDS is all about. Judie Brown Based on the dubious distinction of being a not-for-profit charity that has garnered more than $152 million from this slaughter, it is perfectly clear that Planned Parenthood is committed to increasing its abortion business at all costs, even if it means deceiving the public. Proclaim Sermons Perhaps no words by Jesus have been interpreted so literally and so misinterpreted so painfully than those from this passage. There's no question Jesus said what he did about divorce and remarriage - but who was he speaking to, what was he telling them and what does it mean for us today? Irving News Comments This article announces that the Arkansas Human Cloning Ban has gone into effect. However, there is great concern that this bill, along with numerous other bills that purport to be "total cloning bans" are seriously defective, and would therefore ban no human cloning -- either cloning by means of somatic cell nuclear transfer, or cloning by means of many other human cloning techniques (e.g., germ line cell nuclear transfer, twinning, pronuclei transfer, etc.). The following commentary, along with quite extensive direct quotations and references, is an effort to clarify the issue for those concerned. I hope these comments can be helpful. -- Dr. Dianne Irving, Ph.D.
Richard Weikart If a non-teleological process produced human morality, then how can we find a measuring rod for morality outside of nature that allows us to prefer "moral" behaviors to "immoral" behaviors? Karen Malec It is undisputed -- even by Beral herself -- that a full-term pregnancy lowers a woman's long term risk of breast cancer, and that this protection is not afforded by a pregnancy that ends in induced abortion. Yet Beral and most of mainstream science and medicine would refuse to say that abortion is therefore a risk factor. Everyone knows -- including Beral - that a woman who chooses abortion will end up with a higher long term risk of breast cancer than would result from the childbirth choice. Still, unethical and outrageous as it is, it is politically incorrect to inform women seeking abortion of this undeniable truth. (Joel Brind, Ph.D.)
Scott Yenor Marital love implies dependence on another instead of autonomy, and it shows that certain goods (sex and procreation, love and marriage, marriage and parenthood) are connected. We must recover the language of self-giving. Anthony Zimmerman Peace to those who want to read in Genesis a version of cosmic history as well as truths that God proposes for our belief. They will always have a difficult time to reconcile science with the Bible. Michael Cook Another euthanasia scandal in Belgium. Two sisters have complained on a television program, Terzake, about the euthanasia of their sister. Tine Nys was 38 at the time and had broken up with her live-in boyfriend. On Christmas Eve 2009 she announced that she was going to be euthanased. Michael Cook There are hospitals where women are kept for the whole nine months while they carry someone else's child. There are good stories, where the surrogate is well looked after, but I would like to make people aware of the sheer exploitation of it, the fact that these women are extremely poor.
