I had every 'gender-affirming' surgery. Here's why I'm now speaking the truth
Theodore Dalrymple, senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, has said one of the ways in which neo-Marxist social justice totalitarians exert control is by humiliating people into admitting or professing that something is true which they know is not true. Forcing them to say things they know are false is the ultimate exertion of power and control. Pope Leo's over 400 appeals for peace during first year of pontificate
In the first year of his pontificate, Pope Leo XIV has appealed hundreds of times for a reconciliation that is "unarmed and disarming," and urged the "lords of war" to listen to "a melody greater than ourselves." Reflections on St. Pope John Paul II's "Letter to the Elderly"
The great pontiff's words remind us that life is short and that we must live it with one goal in mind-to get to heaven. SSPX is choosing the path of schism
The Catholic Church has a simple principle that ecclesial revolutionaries keep finding impressively difficult to understand: obedience to legitimate authority belongs to communion and covenant hierarchy rather than institutional convenience. Cardinal Eijk: Same-Sex Synod Report Must Be Forcefully Refuted
Cardinal Willem Eijk: "By elevating such testimonies without doctrinal commentary, the report effectively normalizes homosexual relationships within a Church context. This represents a clear attempt to weaken the proclamation of Catholic moral teaching. The deeper problem lies in the report's entire methodological framework." Unborn Babies Can't be a Clump of Cells When They Have a Heartbeat
Whenever I talk about embryonic hearts there's usually a few people who push back, both actually pro-life and pro-choice people, who push back because, they argue, hearts don't determine personhood. Yeah, I agree with you. I don't talk about embryonic hearts because I think having a heart makes you a morally valuable person. I talk about embryonic hearts because they matter to a lot of people, whether they make you a morally valuable person or not. France Once Again Rejects Bill to Legalize Assisted Suicide
The French Senate on Tuesday rejected a bill to legalize assisted suicide for the second time, voting down Article 2 of the legislation -- which established a right to the procedure -- by 151 votes to 118. Abortion pills don't just end babies' lives, they can almost kill mothers too
A 25-year-old nursing student is condemning the Trump-Vance administration for allowing abortion pills to remain accessible by mail, saying that taking the pills put her in a coma and almost killed her. The fight over whether abortion pills can be mailed from pro-life states into pro-abortion states has become the most central battle for the pro-life movement since the overturn of Roe v. Wade. The Family Shapes Health Before Government Ever Does
Walk through a community center in rural Ohio, a village clinic in Uganda, or a maternity ward in Honduras, and you'll see the same quiet truth. A healthy child was usually carried by a mother who was nourished and supported. A girl who finishes school was encouraged at a kitchen table long before she was encouraged in a classroom. Long before a ministry of health writes a policy, the family has already been shaping one. That's why, on May 15, the world recognizes the International Day of Families. It is also a reminder that women's health cannot be separated from the strength of the family itself. Rededicate 250: One Nation Under God, for the Born and Unborn

Many people today, especially here in Japan and Asia, possess nuclear anxiety and fear that a nuclear war will occur. In the past, many have argued that the concept of nuclear deterrence would not only prevent the use of nuclear weapons but even prevent wars. They claimed that the balance of terror would preserve peace. Yet facts show that nuclear deterrence is not aiding but obstructing peace. As this article is being written, we see a sudden surge in military activity and spending among world leaders. In particular, the amount spent on nuclear weapons by the nine nuclear-armed countries - China, France, India, Israel, North Korea, Pakistan, Russia, UK, and the US - exceeded $100 billion in 2024 and continues to rise in 2025.

We need philosophical arguments to counter the empty voluntarism of our time, and this is a challenge the Church should meet head-on.

Kathleen and Ron have been foster parents for most of their 35 years of marriage, and in addition to raising four children of their own, they have now fostered over 200 children. Throughout those years, they have seen atrocities that most people cannot even imagine, but the love and joy they have brought to children and their families is immeasurable. Philip Irvin
This is a test. Answer this typical diversity question, "What are your preferred pronouns?" The correct answer is "None." I do not have any pronouns that are based on my preferences. My pronouns are based on biology. Rod Lampard

Growing access to IVF and surrogacy raises serious ethical concerns - from exploitation of young women and donor identity risks, to the destruction of millions of embryos.

Unless we see our own condition in another light, rather than in the light of our own minds, we remain blind to our real condition. We are like those slaves, but those whom the grace of God begins to enlighten are like Frederick Douglass. Perhaps we can say that Christ did not come for those who live in "stupid contentment", but for the truly poor in spirit, those who know they are enslaved, prisoners, in other words, those who recognize their utter need for God. Rebecca Taylor
It is crucial to understand the differences between adult stem cells and embryonic stem cells, all the more so because our lawmakers and the media often try to confuse the issue by not making the distinction. While cures from embryonic stem cells are currently not possible, adult stem cells are already curing patients without the moral conundrums. Consequently, the best, most ethical technologies for stem cell treatment come from adult stem cell research. Alexis Heng
Currently in Malaysia, many fertility clinics strongly encourage and even push their patients to do highly expensive preimplantation genetic testing of their IVF embryos, technically referred to as PGT-A or PGS. Denyse O’Leary

Today, in Part I of this essay, I explain critical race theory and show how many of its ideas have made their way into public schools across the country, prompting a backlash that has led to the introduction of anti-CRT education regulations in many states. CRT views values like "objectivity" as tools of oppression. It's clear that many public schools are indeed incorporating plenty of CRT-inspired ideas like these in their curricula. Proclaim Sermons
When Jesus gives the keys of the kingdom to Peter, and by extension to the church, Jesus entrusts the church with the ministry of participating in the redeeming work that God has done and is doing in all creation. This promise sustains us in rough times, and encourages us when we see the fruit of our ministry. Carolyn Moynihan
