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?'."

Mifepristone as a Public Health Issue

The second pill induces contractions that result in expulsion of embryonic and fetal remains, along with other uterine contents.

Selling Motherhood: Why Commercial Surrogacy Echoes Trafficking

Wombs for sale? Unborn baby pricing? Selling motherhood? I want to be honest with you: surrogacy, human trafficking, and Catholic teaching are challenging issues. They touch on deep longings (to be loved, to be a parent), real human suffering (poverty, coercion, abuse), and big questions about what it means to treat people with dignity. My aim here is not to lecture but to help you think through the moral issues associated with "MODERN-DAY SLAVERY".

Advances in reproductive technology have changed what families look like today. For some, surrogacy brings real hope. But when surrogacy becomes a commercial transaction - when reproductive labor is bought and sold - it raises serious ethical and social questions. Many Catholics compare COMMERCIAL SURROGACY to forms of modern corruption and TRAFFICKING. Continue reading at Fr. Jerry's Blog...

Don't Worry. Be Conservative.

Ben Peterson
The war on spiritual poverty is worth fighting, and we need foot soldiers and generals who are willing to wage it.

America's Birthrate Crisis: The Contraceptive Roots of the Population Bust

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.

Abortion Drug Crisis: Four Years After Overturning of Roe v Wade, Abortions Have Nearly Doubled

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 Is AI Taking Over the "Religion of the Book"?

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.

Eleven Years After Obergefell, Who Will Speak for the Children?

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.

Abortion: the perfect cover-up for rape

Ann Farmer
The sickening revelations from the Rochdale sex abuse scandal are a reminder that abortion and abuse go hand in hand.

Does the Pill cause abortions?

Gerard Migeon
Even during the wildest times of my youth, I would never have wanted to be the cause of an abortion. Yet, there is a possibility that I have been responsible for one, unaware. How? Because of contraceptive methods that my wife and I used before we knew about the natural methods.

Mercer's Obsolete Bioethics Plea: "A Fetus is not a Person"

Dianne N. Irving
Mercer has a two-fold task: (1) scientifically, to prove beyond a doubt that even if a human BEING begins to exist at "conception" (his term), that fact simply doesn't matter; and (2) philosophically, to prove beyond a doubt that a fetus is not a PERSON, and therefore can be aborted. If he can accomplish this, then - for whatever his reasons - he can champion a woman's right to abortion. Let's see if Mercer can successfully make his point.

Philippines: Justice for the Victims of the Kidapawan Carnage Deadly Disaster Management in the Philippines

Asia Human Rights
The starving and unarmed farmers of Kidapawan cried for rice. They were given bullets.

Inappropriate Joy (Easter 6)

Proclaim Sermons
Jesus is spending time with the disciples to prepare them for his Passion and the trials they will face. During this teaching (John 14-17), Jesus mentions "joy" five times. Is it appropriate to even mention "joy" when the primary source of that joy is about to leave them? Jesus clearly knew about "joy" in ways that made a profound difference for him and his disciples, and we believe, for us.

Rolling the Dice

Proclaim Sermons
After the death of Judas, the disciples met, nominated two candidates to replace him, prayed and then cast lots. That seems like an odd way to go about the work of the Lord. But regardless of what method we use to call leadership in the church, prayer is essential, as well as faith that it is God who strengthens us and makes us equal to the task.

Risk of Death

Judie Brown
Frantic and misinformed are two words we use to define most media statements. A very good example of this can be found in the following paragraph from The Hill, a leftist website: "Texas bans abortions in almost all circumstances, but the nine Republican justices on the court found that the medical exceptions allow doctors to treat women even if they are not at imminent risk of death."

Obama's Population Fundamentalist
