Pope Francis Called Abortion the "Slaughter" of Innocent Babies
He likened the act to murder, emphasizing the innocence of the unborn and described the killing of babies in abortions as a "slaughter." Pope Francis: "Defend the Unborn Against Abortion"
I learned that, as a Cardinal in Argentina, he was quoted as saying, "Defend the unborn against abortion even if they persecute you, calumniate you, set traps for you, take you to court or kill you." Strong words from a man who valued the sacredness of life from the moment of conception to the instant of natural death. The late Holy Father was a champion of the marginalized - and no one is more marginalized in our society than the unborn child. Tim Walz Signed a Law Allowing Infanticide, Letting Babies Die Who Survive Abortions
Minnesota Citizens Concerned for Life (MCCL) is backing under Minnesota law legislation to restore protection for born-alive infants, including those who survive abortion and those with disabilities. But many people find it hard to believe that protection was ever lost in the first place. Death as the Way to Life
No longer is death for us the shadow darkening the world; or the end of our ambitions and our loves. No longer may we use it as a threat or a solution. We look to our own dying, not as an abridgement but as a consummation, not as a boundary, but as a passage; not as the end, but as the way to life. Two AI's Debated about Abortion: Here's What Happened
Dr. Choice opened the debate with a surprising admission: It is a scientific fact, the AI model stated, that life begins at conception. However, Dr. Choice continued, the fetus, despite being alive, is not officially a person at the early stages of pregnancy. ... Dr. Life's response to Dr. Choice's contentions was nothing short of beautiful. The Amazing Design of Our Bodies - Samantha Kelley
Samantha Kelley, founder of Fierce Athlete, reminds us about the beautiful design of our bodies made as male or female and how we're unique in the eyes of God. Abortion Pill Used to Kill 26-Week-Old Unborn Baby
Right To Life UK is calling for an immediate end to the 'pills by post' at-home abortion scheme, after a jury was told that one of the UK's largest abortion providers, MSI Reproductive Choices (previously Marie Stopes) supplied pills through this scheme, which the jury heard were used to end the life of an unborn baby through an abortion at 26 weeks gestation. Slovakia's PM warns of 'extremely high' levels of DNA contamination in mRNA Covid shots
Slovakia's Prime Minister Robert Fico warns the mRNA Covid vaccines contain "extremely high levels of DNA" and is calling for further investigation, after an expert report published last month found residual DNA in Slovakia-sourced vials of both Pfizer and Moderna vaccines at up to 100 times higher than the regulatory limit. Study: Suicide risk increases with loneliness and depression.
A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) on March 26, 2025 looked at 3,764,279 Korean adults who are living alone. The study found that depression or anxiety was associated with a significantly higher risk of suicide, particularly among middle-aged individuals (aged 40 to 64 years) and men. The Eucharist and the Preborn Child
As pro-life people, we know that the preborn child is truly present within his mother's body from the first cell onward. There is no point throughout a woman's pregnancy when a child is not really and truly present.

Poet Warsan Shire hit a nerve with she composed this stanza in her poem "Home"...
No one leaves home unless / home is the mouth of a shark.
You only run for the border / when you see the whole city / running as well, and
no one puts their children in a boat / unless the water is safer than the land.
Today, we are facing a global refugee crisis. In mid-2024, the refugee population reached 43.7 million.

The government's role, as well as all social institutions, is directed toward both serving and assisting each human person and the family to fulfill their vocation. It is to assist parents in their role and duties, providing reasonable aid, and never in any way to limit the freedom of couples in deciding about their children - who with love for their children know what is best for them. This implies that parents should have the individual autonomy to raise their children outside of government control. Michael F. Burbidge
In the past decade our culture has seen growing acceptance of transgender ideology - that is, the claim that a person's biological sex and personal identity have no necessary connection and could in fact contradict each other. According to this view, "human identity" is self-defined and "becomes the choice of the individual." Consequently, our culture is experiencing a rapid rise in the number of persons claiming an identity contrary to their biological sex. Attempts to accommodate such claims already have resulted in tremendous upheavals in our social, legal, and medical systems. This situation presents a serious challenge for all members of the Church because it presents a view of the human person contrary to the truth. John F. Doherty
Many religious people lament that the contemporary world has hidden God from their sight. But what if that spiritual darkness is precisely where God is waiting for us? Anthony Jose Sirven
If Congress were to pass laws endorsing, protecting, or expanding access to IVF, it would, to my knowledge, be the first time federal law has spoken on the nature of prenatal personhood - at least since Roe. And like Roe, it would once more require us all to accept the premise that unborn (and even certain classes of born) children are not "persons in the whole sense": a sharp turn in the wrong direction. Douglas McManaman
What is so important about Holy Thursday night is the explicit connection between the institution of the Eucharist and a life of service, that is, the link between the sacrament and works of mercy, works of charity, which includes the commitment to social justice in all its forms. An ardent love of the Eucharist and relative indifference to those who suffer is a love that is essentially a farce.

We have the light (the light of the gospel), but we don’t have the fire in our bellies. The children of this world of darkness have the fire in the belly, but no light. They have the determination, the single minded devotion to their causes, which are twisted. We, on the other hand, don’t have that single minded determination. Douglas McManaman
Synopsis: Because God has conceived His one, eternal thought in time, in the imperfections of the things of time, fragmentary, complex, and limited, hermeneutics becomes a necessary and indispensable tool in the reading of the Scriptures. But the kind of biblical hermeneutics that became popular in some Catholic circles during the later half of the 1960s had its roots in the German Rationalism of Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770-1831). This hermeneutics was not a theological hermeneutics at all, even though its subject matter was theological -- namely Scripture. Anthony Zimmerman
The book presents thoroughly documented orthodox Catholic teachings on contraception, abortion and related pro-life topics, designed especially for seminarians. Marcus Roberts
The name and the story of Belgian chemist Dr Tom Mortier (a MercatorNet contributor) has become known throughout the world. His physically well mother was clinically depressed. Yet in 2012 she was euthanased without his knowledge in Belgium. He and his sister were left to pick up the pieces. Helen Alvaré
Social welfare policies failing to give "credit" to women's domestic roles (e.g. social security does not accrue for childrearing), and to women's inclination to take lower paying service jobs, sends a message to women about the value to the community of these undertakings; it tells them the tasks are worthless. It will also likely skew women's choices away from the socially valuable work toward which they incline and toward work that may detract from the well-being of their family and society. R. J. Snell
Custom and tradition, far from being necessarily irrational, are often the vehicles of guiding and binding reason.

Religious belief and activity - particularly prayer - matter in important ways. They make a deeply practical difference in how husband and wife interact with each other in daily life. Xavier Symons

A heated debate on proposals to legalise euthanasia for minors in Belgium intensified this week. The governing Socialist party has proposed the bill while the Christian Democratic Flemish party has declared that it will challenge it in the European Court of Human Rights, if it were to become law.
