After 10 Years of Covering the Trans Madness, Here's What I Learned
Journalist Brandon Showalter recaps the horrors of the transgender movement: "Those of us who've been doing the hard work exposing the madness against an impenetrable mainstream media blockade can all tell you what it's like to learn about all the horrors, only to be gaslit with flat denials like 'that's not happening.' Then you show concrete proof, and it becomes 'well, it's only a few people,' and then maybe 'why are you so obsessed with this small, strange issue?'." Climate alarm 'blaring from every direction'
Climate-driven disasters are reaching "nightmare proportions" due to humanity's "addiction" to fossil fuels, a top UN official warned on Tuesday. Mifepristone as a Public Health Issue
Do not dismiss the complaint as some pro-life ruse. There has been a dramatic shift from surgical to pharmaceutical abortion. The active agents in mifepristone - the first of the two "abortion pills" - remain active post-excretion, i.e., they enter public water systems. The second pill induces contractions that result in expulsion of embryonic and fetal remains, along with other uterine contents. Colorado Teen Dies From Planned Parenthood Abortion. Media Is Mum
A Colorado teen died after undergoing an abortion through Planned Parenthood, though the media and local officials have tried to bury the story. Doctors Oppose South Korea Plan to Promote Abortion Pills
A coalition of medical professionals, pro-life advocates, and the director of the Catholic Institute of Bioethics held a press conference in Seoul, Korea on Wednesday to "slam the South Korean government's move to review the possible legalization of abortion pills, emphasizing protection of pregnant women and children," according to UCA News. School Districts Stonewalling Parents Despite SCOTUS Rulings
Despite the Supreme Court rulings affirming parental rights in Mirabelli and Mahmoud, public school districts continue to hide student?s "gender identity" from parents. IVF Kills More Unborn Babies Than Planned Parenthood
If your goal is to bring a baby into this world, why would you turn to an industry that takes more children out of the world than Planned Parenthood? Miracle Baby Born at 22 Weeks Heads Home From Hospital
A baby born weighing barely a pound at just 22 weeks gestation has finally been sent home after months in hospital, making him the most premature baby to survive at the hospital where he was born. Death by Organ Donation: They're Killing Patients to Harvest Their Organs
The legalization of assisted suicide/euthanasia corrupts medical ethics and not just because killing patients or assisting their suicides is a direct violation of the Hippocratic oath. No: Transforming sick and disabled people into a killable caste also objectifies them as potential natural resources to be mined or harvested. Newest Problem for Schools Hiding Gender Transitions from Parents: Poor Liars
A new obstacle has recently surfaced to confront LGBT activists pushing progressive school districts to adopt policies that force teachers to lie to parents about their students' gender identity at school. Lying is harder than telling the truth. Lying is especially hard for professionals (like teachers) whose job it is to tell the truth. Lying grows even more challenging when done repeatedly, but only sometimes, in service of a double life. More Headlines…

Imagine a young married couple. They have dreamed of having children since the day they were married. Month after month they hope, pray, and wait?but nothing happens. Eventually, their doctor suggests in vitro fertilization (IVF). Friends encourage them to try it. Social media is full of happy stories about babies born through IVF. It seems like the obvious answer.
In recent decades, in vitro fertilization (IVF) has become one of the most widely accepted ways for couples struggling with infertility to have children. Millions celebrate IVF as a scientific miracle that fulfills the dream of parenthood. The pain of infertility is real, and every couple who longs for a child deserves compassion, understanding, and support. However, compassion should never prevent us from asking an important moral question: Does every technological possibility respect the dignity of human life?
From a Catholic perspective, the answer is not simply whether IVF works, but whether it respects God's plan for human life and the dignity of every child. Two serious concerns arise. First, IVF attempts to replace God's design for the beginning of human life. Second, it risks treating unborn babies as products that can be created, selected, bought, sold, or discarded according to human preferences.

It is in accepting the poor and the wretched refuse that the greatness and promise of America are to be found. Christopher O. Tollefsen
There is no guarantee that the bioethics of our future will live up to America's founding promises and insights. Those of us concerned that such a bioethics should exist must, as Lincoln said in honoring the dead of Gettysburg, "be dedicated to the unfinished work" of creating, sustaining, and defending that bioethics. It will be no small task, but I hope to have given some sense of what the shape of that task must be. Siobhan Heekin-Canedy
Perhaps the greatest lesson we can learn from the Olympian mothers is that women are more than their bodies, and that we are all called to integrated human excellence, body and soul. Mark Bauerlein
What counts as serious? At what point does difficulty signal a disability? Much of that is up to the disabled one, whose lived experience is decisive. Judie Brown
Life is indeed in God's mind sacred from conception, and as it is a unique act of creation of a new person, God alone is the final author of how conception is to take place for those who read, believe and care deeply for the word of God.

We are contacted all the time by people asking for how they can refute the arguments of those who believe that the world is overpopulated. So we have decided to create a short primer called "How to Debunk the Myth of Overpopulation in Three Easy Steps." Judie Brown
The line between what is an acceptable and moral practice is continually blurred, and may soon be nonexistent. In our "me first" society, it is expected that we can do whatever we want, whenever we want, with our bodies because, after all, they are our bodies and no one can tell us what we can or can't do. And so science marches along. Science can be a great thing, and miracles happen every day in the field of science. But just because we can do something doesn't mean we should do it. Angela Franks
What Harvey Weinstein is accused of is wrong not only because the victims did not consent but also and more importantly because of what he chose. Sex expresses self-gift, which is why it is such a violation when something that should only be a free gift is stolen by force. Carolyn Moynihan
Let's get one thing straight: are we against the sexualization of children or are we not? If we -- adult, mainstream society -- are against it, we had better start explaining to ourselves why there are people employed in public institutions who say openly that they do not believe in the sexual innocence of children and want to expose it as a myth. Capital Punishment
A Morally Flawed, Broken Legal–Social System Michael D. Pfeifer
Capital punishment is contrary to the highest moral standards and flies in the face of justice, as it mistakenly proposes to solve the grave social ill of killing by killing; of ending violence through violence. A major defect of this morally flawed system is that innocence, or the degree of innocence, is very often determined by economics and power influence. People who are poor and people of color are often provided poor legal defense and are disproportionately executed.

Does Christ teach us to gradually strive to obey His commandments? Does common sense dictate that we carefully choose our words prior to explaining that abortion kills people? Or have we, after more than 50 years of debate on this point, arrived at a stalemate because we hesitate to use the "M" word?
Judie Brown
We hear the word "racism" nearly every day. Yet, many don't take the time to truly understand this term and examine the repercussions when it comes to abortion. If there ever were a racist practice in the United States today, abortion is it. Ryan T. Anderson
We are grateful for Andrew Koppelman's recent reply to our argument in the Harvard Journal of Law and Public Policy that marriage is the conjugal union of husband and wife. Thanks to his honesty and candor, the ensuing exchange should set in stark relief the implications of redefining civil marriage. Brian Clowes
This paper demonstrates that there is indeed a very strong link between male homosexuality and child sexual abuse. It also shows that there is a similar or higher rate of child sexual abuse among other very large groups of adult males (e.g., Protestant clergy, who are usually married), thus proving that celibacy is not the root of the problem - homosexuality is. Judie Brown
For those of us who realize the truth - that life begins the moment a child is created - arguments suggesting otherwise are inane. When we hear the assertion that a human being is not alive until he is born - despite his beating heart, moving limbs, functioning organs, and so on - we wonder how anyone could believe this lie. The fundamental right to life is denied every second of every day in America because of this lie and we must not allow this insanity to continue.
