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.

We need philosophical arguments to counter the empty voluntarism of our time, and this is a challenge the Church should meet head-on.

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

Down syndrome children are being aborted so fast that funding bodies think that there is little point in looking for a cure. "The geneticists expect Down syndrome to disappear," Costa says, "so why fund treatments?" He fears that new quick non-invasive diagnostic tests will lead almost all women to abort Down syndrome children.

Today's culture is filled to the brim with the idea that one can claim to be Catholic and at the same time worship one's personal opinion to the exclusion of God and His word. While such people may claim to be Catholic, their worldview resembles the ancient heresy of Gnosticism rather than the true faith taught by Christ, His apostles, and their successors. Marcus Roberts
This shows how different Africa is to the rest of the world - it is so much younger than everywhere else. Indeed, by the year 2100 it is estimated that half of all infants in the world (those 4 years old and younger) will be African (the proportion is currently at about a quarter). Douglas McManaman
There is a distinction between love of the Church and the love of a specific cultural expression of the faith. It has been my experience that traditionalists do not seem to grasp this. We can study these cultural expressions from the past and certainly we ought to revere them as heirlooms, but any attempt to "conserve" a cultural expression or to resurrect and perpetuate one within the 21st century, is simply childish.

The most noteworthy thing about the body of the first child is that it was fully intact. This likely means that the little boy was aborted using an "induction" method. That is, the abortionist used drugs to induce labor in the child's mother, causing her to give birth prematurely. A.I.R.V.S.C.
Conspicuously absent from most discussions of the abortion issue are considerations of third party interests, especially those of the father. Despite the fact that the prospective father may be lacking in legal rights, he is nevertheless very likely to be an important part of the decision for abortion or childbirth. For example, several studies have found that the attitude of the prospective father is an important factor in the stress, anxiety or depression of the pregnant woman. Asia Human Rights
