"Transgender" isn't what you think it is.
"Like a fever that signals an underlying infection, a transgender identity often points to something deeper that deserves attention and exploration." Therapist Pamela Garfield-Jaeger, LCSW, draws on years of experience to explain what really might be happening when a loved one says "I'm trans." Abortion in the Didache: forbidden by the Apostles
An oft-used argument of those desperate to justify abortion is that there is no mention of abortion in the Bible (which is not totally true). A good rebuttal to this flawed argument is that, while there is no actual use of the word "abortion" in the Bible, there is a specific ruling on abortion in the Didache, the first recorded early Church "catechism." Pope Leo: War is 'fed more easily' than the hungry
"The world today could live without hunger," but "conflicts are 'fed' more easily than people are nourished," Pope Leo XIV said when he visited the United Nations World Food Program, the world's largest humanitarian organization, on June 22. Lila Mozingo is a Reminder That People With Down Syndrome Have Tremendous Value

SCOTUS Upholds Sex-Based Restrictions in Sports - Unanimously?
Two miracles took place at the Supreme Court today in two cases involving Title IX and women's sports. The first miracle is that common sense and biology prevailed. The second miracle is that the decision was unanimous ... at least in part. Planned Parenthood Offers 'Just In Case Abortion Pills'
A Planned Parenthood affiliate is offering "Just In Case Abortion Pills," We Must Protect Babies From Being Dismembered in Abortions
Legislation has now been introduced in both chambers of Congress to protect babies from the brutal, second-trimester abortion procedure known as D&E - dilation and evacuation. As terrible as that sounds, the true nature of the procedure is far worse: Living babies in the womb are literally torn limb from limb and removed in pieces. Leading the Parade into Madness
The rainbow has become holy. The Bible has become blasphemy. While Canada's Prime Minister celebrates at a Pride parade, a New York Catholic hospice caring for terminal cancer patients faces closure ? unless the nuns agree to use the 'correct' pronouns. There's No Mystery to America's Fertility Decline
On the same day last month, two prominent opinion writers both addressed the U.S. fertility decline: Louise Perry wrote in the Wall Street Journal that "Falling birth rates are a mystery," while Jessica Grose at the New York Times stated that it is "not a mystery" why fertility rates are falling, pointing to the significant drop in teen births as the most likely culprit.

Editorial
If I could sit down with a group of university students and young adults today, there is one conversation I would want us to have. It would not begin with computers or robots. It would begin with a much more important question: What kind of person do you want to become?
As you prepare for your future, you will make decisions about your studies, your career, your friendships, and perhaps one day your marriage and family. At the same time, you are entering a world where Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming part of everyday life. Technology will influence many of those decisions. But it should never define the person you become. That is why this article is not really about AI. It is about you. It is about building a life of wisdom, character, and faith in a world that is changing faster than ever before.
The eight questions that follow are an invitation to think beyond technology and to consider something far more important: how to build a life of character in an age of Artificial Intelligence. Continue reading at Fr. Jerry's Blog... Ethical Perspectives Steven Mosher
Restricting the abortion pill in the U.S. will save lives both at home and abroad. Michael D. Pfeifer
The Season of Creation is in the spirit of truth a time to do a heart-filled assessment of the situation of Mother Earth which is suffering many abuses and misuses by we humans. This Season is a source of strength and communion, encouraging us to truly hope and act justly with all of creation. We begin in a deep spirit of heartfelt gratitude, thanking our loving God for the beautiful gift of all creation. Samantha Stephenson
The elimination of suffering will not produce joy. If we seek to be truly free, we must acknowledge our responsibilities to one another. We will flourish to the extent that we all can flourish. 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. Susan Ciancio
Not knowing or loving yourself is one of the fiercest battles we face as human beings. Countless people suffer from low self-esteem, from self-doubt, and even from self-loathing. But what happens when these feelings are compounded by a lack of comfort or even a disgust about your sex organs? This is what people face when they experience gender dysphoria, and it's incredibly confusing when it's a child - especially when it's your child.

Every human being is to be accepted as a gift and blessing of God. Every child should be conceived as the fruit of marriage. In in-vitro fertilization, procreation is not desired as the fruit of the conjugal act, but is regarded and treated as a fabricated product. This is contrary to the unity of marriage, the dignity of the spouses, the vocation of the parents, and the child's right to be conceived and brought into the world in marriage and from marriage. John Stonestreet
Britain, once the birthplace of world evangelization and now a birthplace of nothing. Debi Vinnedge
For the past five years, Children of God for Life has sought the help of every theologian, ethicist or clergy who has weighed in on the issue of aborted fetal cell line vaccines. With the exception of a few good moral leaders, priests and bishops, nearly all who have responded have done so as though they were treading on thin ice, so afraid to produce a crack that might actually reveal the truth and awaken a sleeping conscience. Joseph M. Bessette
Is Uhlman's position that all executions for murder violate pro-life principles, or only executions for which there is some residual doubt of guilt, however small? In any system run by fallible human beings, however well-intended, mistakes are possible. Is the mere possibility of error enough to reject the death penalty in its entirety? Or is his position that wrongful executions are so common in the United States that the pro-life advocate should reject capital punishment as applied in this country at this time? Jennifer S. Bryson
Women visiting Iran for international sports and game tournaments should not have to wear an Islamic headcover to be eligible to compete. US athletes should not have to wear a political symbol to play soccer. Everyone should have the freedom to compete without garment coercion. Angus Fox
An editor of 'The Economist' takes a very sceptical view of the transgender movement. Steven Mosher
Can Gardasil cause sterility? A case from Australia reported in the British Medical Journal raises the possibility that the vaccine, which has been given to millions of young girls around the world, may in some cases cause "ovarian failure."

Responsible intellectually honest scientists and citizens need to pressure the leaders about to assemble in Washington and abroad to put a long-deserved stop to this outrageous Junk and its long-known and long-established inherent dangers to humanity.

Because there are so many inaccurate articles continually being written about the Islamic movement and its advance into any of the non-Muslim nations, I've been strongly encouraged to write about this topic in order to help us understand the very real threat to pro-life advocacy and to not just the lives of the yet to be born, newborns, or patients, but to the lives of any who resist this extremely political movement.

The patient here was not considered "terminal" but was in need of some rehabilitation therapy. Rather than provide therapy, he was placed in a hospice agency and his life was ended prematurely. He did not choose to enter this agency and his wishes were to have rehabilitation. When patients who experience disability, confusion or illness of various sorts are hastened to death, rather than getting the therapy they need, what does this say about our society and those who directly instigated the imposed death?
