Therapist Pamela Garfield-Jaeger, LCSW, draws on years of experience to explain what really might be happening when a loved one says "I'm trans." Abortion in the Didache: forbidden by the Apostles
An oft-used argument of those desperate to justify abortion is that there is no mention of abortion in the Bible (which is not totally true). A good rebuttal to this flawed argument is that, while there is no actual use of the word "abortion" in the Bible, there is a specific ruling on abortion in the Didache, the first recorded early Church "catechism." Pope Leo: War is 'fed more easily' than the hungry
"The world today could live without hunger," but "conflicts are 'fed' more easily than people are nourished," Pope Leo XIV said when he visited the United Nations World Food Program, the world's largest humanitarian organization, on June 22.

SCOTUS Upholds Sex-Based Restrictions in Sports - Unanimously?
Two miracles took place at the Supreme Court today in two cases involving Title IX and women's sports. The first miracle is that common sense and biology prevailed. The second miracle is that the decision was unanimous ... at least in part. Planned Parenthood Offers 'Just In Case Abortion Pills'
A Planned Parenthood affiliate is offering "Just In Case Abortion Pills," We Must Protect Babies From Being Dismembered in Abortions
Legislation has now been introduced in both chambers of Congress to protect babies from the brutal, second-trimester abortion procedure known as D&E - dilation and evacuation. As terrible as that sounds, the true nature of the procedure is far worse: Living babies in the womb are literally torn limb from limb and removed in pieces. Leading the Parade into Madness
The rainbow has become holy. The Bible has become blasphemy. While Canada's Prime Minister celebrates at a Pride parade, a New York Catholic hospice caring for terminal cancer patients faces closure ? unless the nuns agree to use the 'correct' pronouns. There's No Mystery to America's Fertility Decline
On the same day last month, two prominent opinion writers both addressed the U.S. fertility decline: Louise Perry wrote in the Wall Street Journal that "Falling birth rates are a mystery," while Jessica Grose at the New York Times stated that it is "not a mystery" why fertility rates are falling, pointing to the significant drop in teen births as the most likely culprit.

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 Steven Mosher
Restricting the abortion pill in the U.S. will save lives both at home and abroad. Michael D. Pfeifer
The Season of Creation is in the spirit of truth a time to do a heart-filled assessment of the situation of Mother Earth which is suffering many abuses and misuses by we humans. This Season is a source of strength and communion, encouraging us to truly hope and act justly with all of creation. We begin in a deep spirit of heartfelt gratitude, thanking our loving God for the beautiful gift of all creation. 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.

Despite lacking legal framework on disappearances Pakistan's constitution prohibits illegal and arbitrary detention and under article 10. Steven Tucker
How far will the current Hollywood fad-concept of "blind" casting now go? Bear with me here, but in my opinion, it could well ultimately end in the future medical murder of infants in a process of what might best be termed "recreational abortion". Judith Reisman
Said Fidelis' Burch, the immature "Ogden spent his entire life arguing for far-left extremist positions. And he expects us to believe he has matured and abandoned those views now that he is before the Senate? ... David Ogden is a hired gun from Playboy and the ACLU. He can't run from his long record of opposing common-sense laws protecting families, women and children." Tom Bartolomeo
Heaven is not a welfare state of being, a state where we simply consume happiness. We have to lay up a treasure of good works in heaven to draw from before He receives us. The gospel and the Bible is our play-book and our play-script to be followed which I hope we all have in our homes and consult regularly. Without reading its stage directions and performing our assigned parts we will have no place in the company. Actors call it method acting, literally living the character you have been cast for by the director. Ron Panzer
We must shake off the lies expressed by those who have deconstructed our entire culture and who refuse to acknowledge or share the true character of what we are witnessing in the world. We must shake off our willingness to choose to do nothing! It is long past time that we awaken to the realities and become actively involved in promoting a culture of life!

In his requiem speech for Pope John Paul II, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, now Pope Benedict XVI, emphasised that Pope John Paul II wanted peace and love; these aims emphasized the need for the control of Fascism, Communism and Capitalism. Official Documents
We need constantly to contemplate the mystery of mercy. It is a wellspring of joy, serenity, and peace. Our salvation depends on it. Mercy: the word reveals the very mystery of the Most Holy Trinity. Mercy: the ultimate and supreme act by which God comes to meet us. Mercy: the fundamental law that dwells in the heart of every person who looks sincerely into the eyes of his brothers and sisters on the path of life. Mercy: the bridge that connects God and man, opening our hearts to the hope of being loved forever despite our sinfulness. Michael Cook
A milestone case in the European Court of Justice may signal a new direction in campaigns against human embryo research. Shenan J. Boquet
"[Biden] likes to call himself a devout Catholic," said Archbishop Naumann. "I would urge him to begin to act like one, especially on the life issues. And to let his faith really inform his conscience and the decisions that he's making, not the platform of his party." Steven Mosher
Even the New York Times, no bastion of pro-life sentiment, is discomfited by the thought of sex-selective abortion. So why not ban this heinous practice altogether?
