Women Should Not Tolerate Porn
Young women today have unrealistically high standards. When I speak to conservative young men about dating, this is something I often hear. ...What that doesn't mean, though, is that young women shouldn't have any standards. Some are very important, particularly when it comes to a man's character. One standard that is valid is not wanting your partner to watch pornography.

Planned Parenthood's Legacy of Eugenics: From Racial Cleansing to Modern-Day Abortion Mills
This weekend marks 110 years since Margaret Sanger opened her first birth control facility in Brooklyn on October 16, 1916. That facility marked the beginning of her movement, but beneath the glossy facade lies a century-long history of eugenics, racism, and systemic killing. Planned Parenthood's modern image coexists with a documented history involving eugenics and well-established efforts to drive genocidal levels of abortion among vulnerable, low-income populations.

Yes, LGBT identity really is in free fall among American teens
What goes up so quickly will eventually come down just as fast. This is precisely what has happened with gay and trans identity among American teens after our national LGBT social acid trip. Gallup has carefully tracked how dramatically LGBT identity shot up for all ages in the U.S. over the last decade or more. It really rocketed in 2020. In 2012, only 3.5% of Americans identified with any of the experimental sex and gender alphabet soup letters. By 2020, 5.6% did. By 2024, it reached an eye-popping 9.3% of Americans."

No, Two Men Failing To Make A Baby Together Is Not 'Infertility'
Sodomy is not infertility. But money and ideology encourage pretending otherwise. For example, a recent piece in the New England Journal of Medicine complained that the World Health Organization's guidelines on infertility aren't inclusive enough because they 'pertain only to heterosexual couples' rather than also encompassing 'LGBTQ+ people, as well as single people.'

How schools are indoctrinating your kids
Parents are growing suspicious. In WhatsApp groups and at school gates, mums and dads worry aloud that teachers are not simply educating pupils but also filling their heads with views they do not share. Some fret about daughters now convinced they are actually boys, or young children taught about sex and relationships before they are ready.

Why Has America's Fertility Rate Dropped to Historic Lows?
With America's and the globe's fertility rate currently sagging to a historic low, a new survey data analysis has found that supportive friends and family, the influence of pro-natal celebrities, and an active religious life are all major contributors to boosting birth rates and helping couples achieve their desired family size."

The UN & Abortion for Kids
The UN Committee on the Rights of the Child has once more pressured governments to promote abortion and gender ideology. The committee of experts also adopted a new general comment on access to justice following intense debate over controversial abortion language and threats to parental rights. The General Comment was circulated in draft form last year and immediately faced pushback from the government of Argentina and the Holy See for including a right to 'effective access to safe abortion services for adolescent girls.

Kennedy's HHS Puts Gender Medicine's Biggest Medical Groups On The Clock
For years, America's leading medical and psychological organizations have insisted that so-called 'gender-affirming care' for minors is medically necessary, evidence-based, and even lifesaving. Questioning these claims could get you labeled a bigot, accused of harming children, or professionally ostracized. Now, they are being pressed to put their money where their mouth is.

Palliative medicine and its ethical commitment to care for people
Palliative Care is the ethical commitment of a society that is sensitive to the suffering of its citizens. When medicine has failed to prevent or cure a disease, the physician must commit to caring for and supporting the person suffering from the disease in order to alleviate their suffering. It is then that we must adopt an ethical perspective on ?

Mifepristone in emergency contraception: a new threat to the embryo
A recent meta-analysis evaluates the efficacy of low-dose mifepristone as an emergency contraceptive compared to other interventions. Beyond its effectiveness in reducing pregnancy rates, its mechanism of action and ability to interfere with endometrial receptivity has reignited the debate surrounding its bioethical implications and the information women receive about its possible effects.

God Took "My Yes" Very Seriously

Sometimes, in the busyness of our daily lives, we forget the beautiful moment when we first said, "Yes" to God. For those of us who have spent many years following Christ, that little word has taken us on a journey we could never have imagined.

This message reaches far beyond our Oblate family. Every Christian is invited to listen to God's call and respond with trust. Continue reading at Fr. Jerry's Blog...

Conversion Therapy: Controversy and Reality

William Lawyer
Conversion therapy has long been a controversial subject, often regarded as being wholly unethical by critics. Over the last several decades there has been a powerful push to ban it, with publicity painting it as being abusive and harmful. But though like any practice there can be unethical conversion therapy, the facts of it are often misunderstood.
