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.

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...

Michael Cook
The latest figures show that India's child sex ratio is getting even worse. The normal ratio for children between 0 and 6 is about 950 girls to 1000 boys.

Pro-Death Predators and Eternal Suffering

Judie Brown
Recent actions by the nation's government drug approval agency and the words of certain anti-life leaders reveal that the popular version of fact is akin to telling lies in order to snare the unsuspecting. This tactic reminds us of the warning Christ gave to His disciples when He said, "Fear him rather who can destroy both body and soul in hell." When the father of lies is reporting the facts, the truth becomes the first causality.

Maryland State Proposed Statute For Research Using "Decisionally Impaired" Individuals: Beneficence or Abuse?

Dianne N. Irving
Legislating for such research on the grounds presented in this proposal would clearly translate into great abuses to ... cognitively impaired patientsv... No human being has a duty to be altruistic, or to advance scientific knowledge. ... Simply because medical benefits might possibly be obtained while participating in a therapeutic research protocol does not mean that that research is anything other than research, or that it somehow equals or is equivalent to standard medical practice or "health care".
