Breaking NewsIVF 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? Chloe Cole's Testimony to US Senate Committee Hearing on Pediatric Sex-Rejecting Procedures
Chloe Cole testified in front of the HELP Committee urging them to protect children against life-altering sex-rejecting procedures: "I do not believe children can meaningfully consent to these interventions. A minor cannot fully understand what it means to suppress puberty, take cross-sex hormones, lose healthy breasts, face possible infertility, experience sexual dysfunction, live with surgical scars, or depend on medical care long term. These are adult consequences being placed on children." Science Is Making the Humanity of Unborn Babies Harder to Ignore
Baby Arthur had parvovirus, which was causing his body to fill with fluid. "His organs were failing. His heart was completely enveloped in fluid. It was struggling to pump," his mother said. "If nothing was done, he would not have made it much longer." Costco Will Sell Discounts for IVF and Egg Freezing
Costco Wholesale is partnering with telehealth provider Sesame and fertility clinic network IVI RMA North America to offer members discounted access to fertility treatments, including in vitro fertilization, egg freezing and intrauterine insemination, along with savings of up to 80% on certain medications. Parents Can't Be 'Assigned At Birth' Any More Than Sex Can
The phrase 'sex assigned at birth' was dreamed up to suggest that biological sex (male or female, determined at fertilization and encoded in chromosones) is not an objective reality but a label slapped on a baby by a doctor in a delivery room. As if maleness and femaleness were within the purview and authority of adults to decide. As if the biology was negotiable. Most people now recognize this for what it is: a denial of biological reality." Technically Human: Elizabeth Condra
Elizabeth Condra is a young wife and new mother. Her son, who is now sixteen months old, was born with a rare multi-gene deletion disorder. After undergoing genetic testing with her husband to determine whether they were carriers for the genetic disorder, genetic counselors "continuously referenced" IVF, even after Elizabeth and her husband said they weren't interested in pursuing it, no matter the results. Plastic surgeons support waiting until patients are at least 19 years old
For the first time, a major U.S. physician group has recommended against gender transition surgeries for youths. Human Life Begins at Conception: One Single Cell Becomes Trillions
When the cell was first discovered (and named) by Robert Hooke in 1665, it was hailed as a major discovery. However it was initially thought to be just a cell wall containing a mass of some sort of undifferentiated protoplasm. Harmed by Medical Transition
Detransition is not a checklist, and it is not a hierarchy...This is not a linear recovery, and it cannot be forced. These are patients who have been harmed by medical transition, and their recovery must proceed at their own pace, guided by their own readiness and their own hard-won understanding. Skrmetti Is a Partial Victory for Common Sense
While the efforts of gender ideology and its activists have been subdued due to federal and state legislation and executive orders, the threat still remains. PIP's co-founders Mary Hasson and Theresa Farnan discuss why this is the case in context of a major SCOTUS victory which protects children from sex-rejecting procedures. More Headlines…

Ethical Perspectives on Bioethics Roi Yozevitch
An AI does not only "remember" all the words. But as any ChatGPT user can testify, it finds connections between different sources, summarizes them, generates challenging questions, and even deduces new insights. It can therefore seem as though these machines are well-versed in almost any topic. Michael D. Pfeifer
The human embryo created by God is indeed sacred because it is a human person in its earliest stage. Sadly, the embryo is being threatened more and more and killed by many. The embryo is made by God with the cooperation of a married woman and man in the Sacrament of Marriage. The main purpose of marriage is to give new life to our world as the married couple increase their love for one another. It is God who gives the soul in the embryo. 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. Seth C. Oranburg
The Talmudic and rabbinic tradition diverges from the latest encyclical, and the divergence highlights a paradox in the papal logic. Leo XIV's strongest move, his categorical prohibition against the use of AI to make "lethal or otherwise irreversible decisions," demands a more principled distinction between the Switchblade and the CyberKnife. Emily Hancock
AI can shift how we communicate with one another, what work looks like for many roles, how relationships unfold, and how we order our lives. Much of our reaction to these projects reflects the understanding that this technology has the power to reshape the way humanity marches into the future, and not always in a way that serves the greater good.

Pope Leo XIV's first encyclical confronts the promises and perils of artificial intelligence, urging humanity to defend human dignity in an increasingly dehumanised age. Dave Deane
Does saving some lives from abortion now - while leaving others unprotected - constitute faithfulness or compromise? Can love afford to wait for perfect justice? Inside the debate between incrementalism and abolitionism. Judie Brown
The simple fact that every human being has a similar beginning as a single cell fertilized egg seems to be more than some people can comprehend. This came into stark focus when we read Professor Risa Cromer's article entitled "Embryo Personhood's IVF Problem: What the Data Reveals." John Stonestreet
What's the point of formation over efficiency, leisure over work, and wisdom over perfection? 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. Judie Brown
The simple fact that every human being has a similar beginning as a single cell fertilized egg seems to be more than some people can comprehend. This came into stark focus when we read Professor Risa Cromer's article entitled "Embryo Personhood's IVF Problem: What the Data Reveals." Ann Farmer
The tired claim that science and faith are at odds ignores a rich history of Christian scientists - and a rather unscientific leap of its own.

"Gender ideology will not be victorious. But we must respond to this challenging moment with truth and love, faithful to Jesus Christ and the teachings of the Catholic Church, for the sake of our children."
—Mary Hasson
