AI, Faith, and the Future: Becoming the Person God Created You to Be in a Digital World

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

New! Walking with and Understanding Your Gender-Confused Child

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.

New! Compassion and Love Can Prevent Euthanasia

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.

New! Against False Technological Necessity

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.

New! Imperfect Pro-Life Lawmaking in Post-Dobbs America

Stephen G. Gilles
By re-energizing a state's pro-life base and attracting enough swing voters to tip the scales, the movement can make real, even if "imperfect," progress toward ending elective abortion in America.

The Meddle of Dishonor

Judith Reisman
So here we are: No law enforcement or child protection agency collects adult pornography as criminal evidence. The sexually liberated "paradise" of Kinsey and Hefner has spread like the plague. The number of virgin college students has dwindled, and millions of people have been lied to all their lives about sex and pornography. The "hysteria" has mostly vanished, and our government seems to prefer it that way.

How Surrogacy Arrangements Fail Children

Seow Hon Tan
Surrogacy arrangements are not in the best interests of children. When thinking about whether to legalize surrogacy, policy makers should consider the epigenetic effects of pregnancy, the loss to the children arising from separation from their birth mothers, and the special challenges associated with parenting by commissioning parents.

The Consequences of Rejecting God

Shenan J. Boquet
There is no greater civil right than the right to life. Yet, tens of millions of preborn children do not enjoy this most basic and fundamental of human rights. Abortion is a modern-day genocide, condemning an entire category of human beings, the preborn, to death. This is an extraordinarily grotesque violation of everything that is good and sacred.

Human Embryos are Human Beings: a Scientific and Philosophical Case

Patrick Lee
What's at stake in the abortion debate is precisely what was at stake during the nineteenth-century debate about slavery: Where do we draw the line between beings we can simply use for our own purposes and discard when inconvenient, on the one hand, and beings who have fundamental rights, who deserve our respect and protection, on the other?

The New States' Rights: Is Parenthood Defined by Biology or Government?

Alternative Aims of Science: How Agendas Harm the Suffering

Frank J. Moncher
