Why Americans Are Falling Out of Love with LGBT 'Pride'

From Evie Estes with Ruah Woods Institute: "The Church does not teach that our bodies are perfect in their present state or that appearances are irrelevant. It teaches something deeper: our bodies have dignity because they are animated by a spiritual soul & our sexual identity is part of this unity."

The Pope acknowledged that quite a few elderly people share the painful feeling of being forgotten, especially as they experience loneliness or sometimes being reduced to a bed number or illness. How Can Anyone Defend Transgender Sports After This?!

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 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. Marie Brousseau
The elderly are immense gifts to society, yet too often today we see that our culture focuses on personal fulfillment, which can then lead to the neglect of people who are no longer deemed necessary or productive. This includes the sick and the elderly, who may feel lonely, abandoned, and isolated from their own families. 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.

While developing countries are in dire need of everything from PPE, ventilators, and public health assistance (not to mention food and emergency loans), how has the government of Sweden chosen to respond to this crisis? It has committed $2 million to provide condoms and abortion equipment in sub-Saharan Africa. Margaret Somerville
A widely publicized report published by the Royal Society of Canada presents a thoroughly one-sided view. The Royal Society of Canada Expert Panel on End-of-Life Decision Making recently released its Report to much media attention. The parts of that report we can all agree on, for instance, the need for much better access to palliative care and pain management for terminally ill patients, was not the media's focus. The panel's recommendation that euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide (PAS) should be legalized was. Steven Mosher
A new law passed by the New York State legislature last Tuesday would keep abortion legal up to the point of birth should the U.S. Supreme Court overturn its Roe v. Wade decision. Margaret Somerville

A new documentary sets the record straight on church-state separation. C. Ward Kischer
Jonathan Turley is a lawyer and a Professor of Constitutional Law at George Washington University. He is frequently a guest on television news talk shows and contributes to analyses and discussions about legal isssues. But, he has written an opinion essay on stem cell research, where he is clearly out of his element... his mistakes reveal a shallow understanding of the basic Human Embryology, which is not altogether uncommon when a politico like Turley, who is long on reputation, but short on knowledge, attempts to beguile a general readership. Arthur Goldberg
COVID-19 is not lethal to all patients, and there is no certainty that a patient who acquires COVID-19 and incurs other life-threatening illnesses as a result thereof will die from such infections within the following six months. Nevertheless, New Zealand authorizes a legalized killing for those who were diagnosed as (a) dying from the coronavirus or (b) suffering unbearably from its consequences. A.I.R.V.S.C.
There is an increasing call in many quarters for the economically developed to encourage the increased use of abortion in third-world countries, including Africa. This is being advocated on the grounds that childbirth is dangerous to women and that the legalization of abortion will decrease the risk of death from pregnancy-related causes. Available data indicates that death of women is excessive, particularly in third-world countries, but that the various causes of these deaths are most often due to poor maternal health-facilities in these regions, coupled with poor medical care.

"Having reviewed this bill thoroughly, it is clear to me that ... By default this bill would allow most grossly unethical research addressed, including both "therapeutic" and "reproductive" human cloning, using any cloning techniques. ... I would also suggest: Only internationally approved scientific terms and definitions should be used ... No bill is better than a flawed bill ... Legally valid informed consent is impossible ... Non-neutral ethics is presumed ... Only morally licit means must be used to limit evil. ...".
David C. Reardon
The assumption that abortions only occur when women freely want them has been overturned by a new study interviewing a national sample of 1000 women 41 to 45 years of age. Of women with a history of abortion, only 33% described their abortions as a "wanted and consistent with my values and preferences." All others, described it as contrary to their values and preferences, with 24% also describing their abortions as "unwanted" or "coerced."
