Report: Churchgoing Couples Have Highest Rate of Marital Satisfaction Fresh research highlights the strong links between active Christian faith, marital happiness, sexual satisfaction, family stability and the formation of future generations. Called to Be Counter-Cultural The greatest danger the Church faces is not just hostility from outside, but compromise from within. The Church loses its saltiness not when it is persecuted, but when it becomes indistinguishable from everything around it. Our witness is only credible when our communities actually live what we proclaim: when Christians are known by their love, their honesty, their care for the poor, and their joy. UCLA Caught Buying Aborted Baby Parts, Altering Paperwork to Hide It Liberty Counsel Founder and Chairman Mat Staver said, "The fetal organ harvesting business murders innocent babies for profit. These public records obtained by the Center for Medical Progress show that the work must continue to expose these heinous acts by these abortionists, harvesters, researchers, universities, and companies. The barbaric slaughter of babies for profit must stop." The Moral Problem With IVF: Human Beings Aren't Property
In-Vitro Fertilization has created a moral crisis. There are now as many as 1.5 million frozen embryos in the U.S. alone. Many of these will remain frozen or simply tossed out. In the UK alone, an estimated 130,000 embryos have been thrown in the trash since 1991.

Editorial
Who are the Poor? It is difficult for me to look at a photograph of a hungry child and simply turn the page. Perhaps it is because I have spent so many years working with young people at Kochi University and traveling across Asia to share the pro-life message. When you look into the face of a child who does not have enough to eat, hunger is no longer just a statistic. It has a face. It is a little boy or girl who is hungry today and whose parents may not know where tomorrow's food will come from. How many children worldwide suffer from hunger? The numbers are staggering. According to the latest estimates from UNICEF, the World Health Organization, and the World Bank, 42.8 million children under five...
Continue reading at Fr. Jerry's Blog... Ethical Perspectives Jordan J. Ballor Abuse is no argument against proper use. But AI's challenges and opportunities are bound up with identifying the scale and scope of proper use as well as the consequences of abuse, and how to distinguish one from another. Ronald Rolheiser Every year I try to write an article on suicide because it is perhaps the most misunderstood of all deaths and it wreaks a unique havoc among the family and the loved ones left behind.
Ann Farmer Today, despite the progressive emphasis on a multiplicity of 'communities', there is less community feeling than ever before. If not for this progressive policy of 'divide and rule', our own times might be just as neighbourly as in the past, when we were encouraged to prize what we had in common rather than dwelling on our differences. Shenan J. Boquet The new law permits an adult to request death if he or she is a French citizen or stable legal resident, suffers from a serious and incurable illness that is advanced and life-threatening, experiences physical or psychological suffering deemed unbearable or resistant to treatment, and is judged capable of making a free and informed decision. Lori Hadacek Chaplin Understanding that both the suffering and their caregivers experience loneliness and isolation, a new Catholic ministry called The Peace in the Storm Project aims to accompany them both to help foster faith, fellowship, and peace. The project, founded in 2023 by Catholic author Maureen Pratt, is available to dioceses, parishes, and individuals.
Asia Human Rights The Commissions were established two years ago to investigate conflict-era cases. A.I.R.V.S.C. The experience of men with abortion has been little studied generally and this is the first reported study on male prisoners and abortion. The study is also unusual because it is not based upon the usual analysis of data, but instead is based upon the direct anecdotal statements of the men themselves. Proclaim Sermons The seemingly mysterious story of the Transfiguration of Christ was really a divine effort to help the closest disciples of Jesus understand more fully who Jesus is and how their lives would change as they gave their hearts to him. Yes, the story contains strange elements, but that doesn't mean God is incomprehensible. Rather, it means that God's self-giving love is evident in the gift of Christ to humanity. Michael Cook Process raises serious concerns, especially if changes can be inherited. John Stonestreet In yet another indicator that they are not ok, men in America are abandoning higher education in record numbers. According to the Wall Street Journal, at the end of the 2020 academic year, the percentage of male college students dropped to just over 40 percent. Dianne N. Irving The contribution by Ganzini et al is a gentle yet lucid reminder from practioners in the field with hands-on experience, that the PSDA as prescribed and enacted poses certain challenges for those concerned with and responsible for patient care - as well as for the protection of their "autonomy". In the case of the depressed elderly presenting to hospital admissions, a "clean fit" with those for whom the Act was intended (competent adults) appears to be lacking. ... It also points once again to the need of health care providers, lawyers, ethicists - and especially psychiatrists - to come to terms with a more realistic and agreed upon definition of "competency", "incompetency" - and, particularly, "intermittent competency".
Anthony Zimmerman To be pro-life, stay alive. One secret is good habits and a good routine. Mass, meditation, Scripture, rosary, L' Osservatore Romano weekly. That's million dollar "priest insurance." Shenan J. Boquet Abortion is one of the foremost causes of suffering in the world, and one of the least acknowledged. The child in the womb suffers in silence, and the mother carries grief, shame, and guilt. A cruel irony of abortion is that the number of people involved is at least two, but enduring silence often follows. A human life ceases to exist where mere minutes and seconds before a distinct person was forming in the womb. Christopher Kaczor The Vatican's Instruction on bioethics, titled "Dignitas Personae" or "The Dignity of the Person," treats contemporary questions in bioethics, condemning practices widely accepted in our society including vitro fertilization and some forms of stem cell research. Paradoxically, the Instruction is based on a principle that also is widely accepted in our society, the principle of equal human dignity. Carolyn Moynihan The Atlantic magazine has an article arguing that online dating is undermining monogamy.
