Why Americans Are Falling Out of Love with LGBT 'Pride'

From Evie Estes with Ruah Woods Institute: "The Church does not teach that our bodies are perfect in their present state or that appearances are irrelevant. It teaches something deeper: our bodies have dignity because they are animated by a spiritual soul & our sexual identity is part of this unity."

Editorial
If I could sit down with a group of university students and young adults today, there is one conversation I would want us to have. It would not begin with computers or robots. It would begin with a much more important question: What kind of person do you want to become?
As you prepare for your future, you will make decisions about your studies, your career, your friendships, and perhaps one day your marriage and family. At the same time, you are entering a world where Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming part of everyday life. Technology will influence many of those decisions. But it should never define the person you become. That is why this article is not really about AI. It is about you. It is about building a life of wisdom, character, and faith in a world that is changing faster than ever before.
The eight questions that follow are an invitation to think beyond technology and to consider something far more important: how to build a life of character in an age of Artificial Intelligence. Continue reading at Fr. Jerry's Blog... Ethical Perspectives Samantha Stephenson
The elimination of suffering will not produce joy. If we seek to be truly free, we must acknowledge our responsibilities to one another. We will flourish to the extent that we all can flourish. Seth C. Oranburg
The Talmudic and rabbinic tradition diverges from the latest encyclical, and the divergence highlights a paradox in the papal logic. Leo XIV's strongest move, his categorical prohibition against the use of AI to make "lethal or otherwise irreversible decisions," demands a more principled distinction between the Switchblade and the CyberKnife. Susan Ciancio
Not knowing or loving yourself is one of the fiercest battles we face as human beings. Countless people suffer from low self-esteem, from self-doubt, and even from self-loathing. But what happens when these feelings are compounded by a lack of comfort or even a disgust about your sex organs? This is what people face when they experience gender dysphoria, and it's incredibly confusing when it's a child - especially when it's your child. Marie Brousseau
The elderly are immense gifts to society, yet too often today we see that our culture focuses on personal fulfillment, which can then lead to the neglect of people who are no longer deemed necessary or productive. This includes the sick and the elderly, who may feel lonely, abandoned, and isolated from their own families. Emily Hancock
AI can shift how we communicate with one another, what work looks like for many roles, how relationships unfold, and how we order our lives. Much of our reaction to these projects reflects the understanding that this technology has the power to reshape the way humanity marches into the future, and not always in a way that serves the greater good.

Late last year the journal Contraception retracted an article that had been published in August 2016 about the relationship between abortion laws and maternal mortality in Mexico. Marcus Roberts

The Catholic Church has always opposed IVF and has developed a sophisticated critique based on its understanding of human sexuality. Its official Catechism states that IVF is "morally unacceptable" because it separates the marriage act from procreation and establishes "the domination of technology" over human life. It, too, is horrified at the fact that embryos are treated as raw material rather than human beings. Pilar Calva
Some...at the summit expressed fear that even altering embryos that aren't intended for implantation will pave the way toward germline editing. And some worried that public opposition to embryo research could cause a backlash against use of genome editing as therapy. But others saw an embryo research ban as unrealistic. Michael Cook
Commercialisation of IVF is crossing new frontiers in New York with "egg freezing parties" for career women who want to keep their options open. A company called EggBanxx will retrieve and store eggs - for about US$7,000 to $8000 per cycle.

Traditional conservatives and others committed to the principles of limited government have nothing to fear from natural law-based accounts of the political common good. In fact, natural law accounts offer the strongest principled basis for defending liberty and limited government by showing how such values are themselves core aspects of the common good. Irving News Comments
Summary: The article indicates once again that scientifically iPS cells would not constitute that final "ethical alternative". There are also a number of ethical concerns that continue to plague iPS stem cell research. Referring to iPS stem cells as "adult" stem cells is very misleading. Further, iPS research, as well as most other similar types of research, require the use of "biological materials" that are derived originally from human embryos and human fetuses and then used throughout these experiments.
