Protecting the Sibling
Stephanie Winn (LMFT) discusses the impact of trans-identification on families and siblings. She writes, "When one child in a family transitions -- especially an older child who has influence, charisma, or the mystique of rebellion -- parents naturally worry about the other children. Will the younger sibling follow?...Not every younger sibling is equally vulnerable. Understanding the risk and protective factors helps you calibrate your response." The Magisterium of the Popes and nuclear weapons

A new study out of Finland showed that adolescents and young adults who underwent sex-rejecting procedures (puberty blockers, "cross-sex" hormones, or surgery) "had worse mental health outcomes than a control group that did not receive such bodily alterations. The study tracked 2,083 people who had sought medical services for gender confusion between 1996-2019." Despite the glaring evidence of harm, many American "medical" institutions continue to provide harmful interventions to vulnerable persons. Catholic Bishop Condemns Abortion: "All Human Life is Sacred From Conception"

There is a quiet change happening in our world. It is not loud, and many people do not notice it right away. But it matters. More and more, abortion is happening not in clinics, but at home, through pills. It is private, fast, and often done alone. I never imagined I would feel this deeply about something so often discussed in whispers, but headlines such as this, "Abortion Pills Now Kill 2/3 of All Babies Killed in Abortions," make it harder to ignore. Many people say the procedure is a good thing. They speak about freedom, control, and privacy. I understand why that sounds appealing. But as a Catholic, I cannot see it that way. For me, this is not just a social issue - it is spiritual. It raises more profound questions about life, truth, and what we believe about who we are.

When I saw this recent prayer petition at a daily Mass: "For all who have died or suffered because of violence," I couldn't help but think of all the babies who die so violently under the legal shield of medical, clinical, and chemical abortion. Francis X. Maier
The decisive question for this and every age, Trueman argues, is Who and what is Man? Anthony Jose Sirven
The definition of "personhood" isn't an issue we can push off much longer; technology will make us face it sooner than some might prefer. Shenan J. Boquet
Of all the saints, Joseph stands as the model of faithful fatherhood: the man whom God entrusted with the protection of the Holy Family, and who fulfilled that mission with quiet, unwavering devotion. In him we see what marriage and fatherhood are meant to be, i.e. a sacrificial gift of self, ordered toward the good of spouse and children, rooted in obedience to God's plan. Susan Ciancio
A mother recently told me that, when she found out that her baby had a 99% chance of having Down syndrome, her first course of action was to do an online search for what she could expect. What she found frightened her.

Matthew wants to tell us something here, namely that Jesus expected an absolute and complete response to His call.

Informed consent is a bioethical precept of paramount importance in medicine. Ever since the publication of the Belmont Report in 1978, researchers have by and large applied this principle to their daily work. Irving News Comments
A true story: What a small world! A couple of months ago I had a very "interesting" debate with the physicist / genetic engineer whose new book is critically reviewed below. He was seated next to me at a formal judicial conference dinner I was attending with my husband, and was to speak to the conference the next day as a scientific "expert." He would help the District Court and Appellate Circuit Court judges identify "junk science" used in the courtrooms. Neither of us knew each other. What was his speech going to be about? Oh, the "junk science" currently being used in the human cloning and human embryonic stem cell research debates! Good grief. Without loosing a beat, he immediately tried to convince me that human cloning was terrific, could cure all those diseases, etc. -- but for the "crazies"! When I asked him who the "crazies" were, he responded immediately with deep disdain, "like, those crazy prolifers! Darius Lee
While it is good that legal systems have become more sensitive to the psychological effects of the law on participants in the legal process, we should be wary of claims that assert that no-fault divorce is "therapeutic" for divorcing couples or their children. Advocates for the sanctity of marriage across the globe should pay close attention to this shift.

As you know, there is a very real war going on in the world right now. It's a war against the life of a child. In this segment, I will talk about "Child Laundering". The Bible tells us that each and every human being is made in the image of God, and the enemy would like nothing better than to attack that image by destroying each and every person he can, beginning with the preborn. It's up to us to fight on behalf of these innocent children. It's not easy, but God is on our side. The legal definition of "Child Laundering" refers to an act of stealing and selling a child to adopting parents under false pretenses. Then, through false paperwork, the child is "laundered" into a legal "orphan" and then sold commercially on a corrupt market. "Child Laundering" is a dirty business against children. It is motivated by evil men solely for the purpose of making money by exploiting the weakest. To counteract this, we must be strong, speak out publicly in order to provide a loving environment for our children. Individually, every Christian adult needs to be actively involved in solving this horrendous crisis. Children are the most precious treasure that we have. They guarantee our future.

There is an essential difference between living together with insurance benefits, and marriage. The fundamental question is: What do two people intend when they intend to marry? It is exactly what cohabitating couples do not intend. Xavier Symons
The rates of assisted suicide in Switzerland increased by 30% in 2015, bringing it close to eclipsing suicide as a cause of death. Darren Geist
Gen Z's turn toward church may be unexpected, but it is actually rooted in the most natural drive of all: a desire for marriage and family. Young men are looking for truth and responsibility - and, ultimately, meaning. For most men, throughout history, a primary source of meaning has been marriage and children. Judie Brown
Remember the deplorables? Perhaps you felt like one of them during Hillary Clinton's run for president. Currently in our society we experience attitudes toward human beings that are not only offensive but that are deadly, because America's cultural elite treats certain people like undesirables. Shenan J. Boquet
One of the most distressing aspects of the transgender ideology that has swept through our culture and social institutions in the past decade or so, is the level of energy that its promoters have invested into pushing the most extreme and destructive version of transgenderism on impressionable children.
