Why the Catholic Church Opposes 'In Vitro Fertilization'

Since the birth of the first "test-tube baby" in 1978, in vitro fertilization (IVF) has provided hope and a path to parenthood for many couples who cannot conceive naturally. The Catholic Church, however, has consistently rejected IVF - not out of hostility to suffering couples, but because of deeper beliefs about marriage, human life, and the dignity of the human person.

A Walz to the White House?

Kurt Mahlburg
When Trump picked JD Vance as his running mate, the legacy press held Vance's feet to the fire, with hard-hitting, wall-to-wall coverage that interrogated the Ohio senator's life story, his policy positions, his political alliances, and the ins and outs of his relationship to the 45th president. The fourth estate did its job, in other words - helping Americans understand Trump's heir apparent, and ensuring he was thoroughly vetted for the job. If only the same could be said of their treatment of Kamala Harris' VP pick, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.

Shouldn't We Have Rape Abortion Exceptions to Help Victims?

Brian Clowes
From an ethical and logical standpoint, a baby conceived through violence is as blameless and innocent as one conceived in marriage and is therefore deserving of the same protection. If you challenge a person to look at two babies, one conceived in a loving marriage and the other through the violent act of rape, that person will not be able to tell them apart. Either all preborn babies are worth saving, or none of them are.
