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. The Church opposes IVF largely because the process usually creates multiple embryos in a laboratory. Some are implanted, but others are frozen, discarded, or destroyed. Since the Church views each embryo as a human life, this loss of embryos is considered morally unacceptable. The inherent dignity of a human person deserves full moral and legal respect and protection. The Church teaches that embryos must never be treated merely as a means to an end.

Susan Ciancio 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 A YouTuber with 100,000 subscribers, Dr Augustinos Samaan now faces five years' hard labour after Egyptian courts convicted him of blasphemy in a secret trial. Jean Seah 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.
Margaret Hickey Over the last number of decades, family life has collapsed in the West. Novel, reality-denying notions of what constitutes family, that set adult choices over children's needs, must surely contribute in no small measure to the social withdrawal and alienation of the young. Also, the impact of social media on parents' own lives and the way it can engross their attention inevitably impacts the quality of the time they give their children. Judith Reisman Recently, in pornography's link to rape, I exposed some of the phony stats used by a very passionate law professor, Glenn Reynolds, who wants more pornography - ummm - to reduce rape. Charles J. Chaput Denver's Archbishop Charles Chaput frequently speaks out in defense of the Church's teaching on life and family issues when many others choose to remain silent.

March Today a more vibrant, forward-looking strain of feminism is emerging, exquisitely captured in the brand new book, Hannah's Children: The Women Quietly Defying the Birth Dearth, which is highly recommended by pro-family advocates.

Douglas McManaman Synopsis: The beatitudes are the basic outline, the interior contours of a new spirit.

E. Christian Brugger Here I want only to say that although signing a living will (or a POLST form) is not in itself evil, nevertheless, it is a bad idea. Because in the absence of a living will or similar type of document, health care workers are required to administer reasonable medical treatment in light of a patient's presenting condition, the only reason to complete a living will is to prevent medical workers from intervening to sustain life (i.e., to refuse treatment). Daniel Philpott Contrary to what one often hears in Western media, Islam needs neither a Reformation nor an Enlightenment. Islam must - and can - find resources from within its tradition to defend the full human right to religious freedom. The second in a two-part series.
