I Absolutely Refuse to Play Their Stupid English Language Gamesto
Pardon my above facetiousness. However, preposterous Leftists are now making it very complicated to teach the English language to foreign students. Pronouns are especially difficult. Even without Leftist stupidity, English pronouns can be challenging to master for foreigners: 'I, me, my,' 'he, his, him,' 'she, her, hers.' We used to teach that those are singular forms, applying to individual people. 'You, your, yours' can be either singular or plural and is as confusing to native speakers as it is to foreigners. But at least we knew the difference between singular and plural pronouns. Well, we once did.

Exposing the transgender money machine
Last month the American Principles Project published an eye-opening study of the facts and figures for trans medicine, 'The Gender Industrial Complex.' It had commissioned a market research company, Grand View Research, to estimate the cost of the drugs and surgical procedures involved in transitioning, the estimated current and future revenue growth of the market, and the most significant players. After reading the report, it's hard not to conclude that 'the gender industrial complex' is a factory of cruelty and misanthropy.

War Against Children: IVF - 70-75% do not survive (part 14)

Millions of babies have come into the world through In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). This method can provide couples with a child they desperately want. And it has brought many precious new lives into being, and real happiness to millions of parents. Therefore, many now think IVF is the answer to infertility. BUT IT IS NOT! There is no story in the Bible that describes our current society better than the story of the Tower of Babel. Like us, the people of Babel were professionals with a working amount of technical skills. However, they allowed that knowledge to fool them into believing that they could compete with God - that they could do what God alone can do. We know that with all their human know-how, in the end, all they had to show for their work was a pile of rubble. We, in the present century, find ourselves in much the same situation. Our scientific technical know-how today far exceeds the scientists of Babel. However, there has also been a dark side to this technological advancement. Continue reading at Fr. Jerry's Blog...

Ethical Perspectives

New! IVF becomes a burning issue in US election

Michael Cook
The Catholic Church has always opposed IVF and has developed a sophisticated critique based on its understanding of human sexuality. Its official Catechism states that IVF is "morally unacceptable" because it separates the marriage act from procreation and establishes "the domination of technology" over human life. It, too, is horrified at the fact that embryos are treated as raw material rather than human beings.

New! The Death Peddlers: Kamala Harris and Tim Walz

Steven Mosher

New! Who Is My Neighbor? Ukraine, Just War, and the "Good Samaritan" Ethic

J. Darly Charles
It is time - indeed, past time - to act decisively. Ukraine is our neighbor. Will Russia, with her imperial designs and commitment to do the unthinkable, be deterred? Are we in the West willing to confront sociopolitical evil? And do so in the name of justice, charity, and human dignity?

New! Load-Bearing Walls: How Denying Biological Reality Harms Us Al

Emilie Kao
Man-made positive laws should follow the laws of nature. Americans cannot bear the load of the government's latest attempt to defy reality. And the courts should ensure that we won't have to.

New! How Abortion Degrades Men

Shenan J. Boquet
Manhood is in crisis in our modern world, which seeks to blur the differences between man and woman. In response to this crisis, we desperately need men to be more responsible and sacrificial towards women, not less. We need men to respect women and honor their dignity. We need men who are disciplined and can control their sexual appetites, acting chastely. We need men who do not ignore the fruit of procreation, but are willing to be responsible, welcoming their children and supporting their mothers.

Sex and the Sacred

Douglas McManaman
Consider how rape crisis centers describe the trauma women experience as a result of rape. The trauma is shattering; rape victims are shamed, they feel alone, they are plagued by nightmares, flashbacks, and their perception of the world is radically altered - the world no longer appears as a safe place. Their ability to trust others has been seriously compromised; some victims no longer even trust themselves. The violation that rape is reaches to the deepest region of the person. What this points to indirectly is that sex concerns the deepest regions of the human person.

Pax and Peacemaking

Douglas McManaman
The Greek term 'peacemaker' is derived from eiro, which means to join or tie together into a whole. Our immune system is a peacemaker, for it preserves the integrity, the unity or pax of the organism. The state of peace as absence of conflict is the result of the work of the immune system, which is a work of conflict, a battle. Without that biochemical army, there is no peace, whether that is taken to mean integrity (unity), or whether it is taken as a state characterized by an absence of conflict.

Burma/Myanmar: Prosecutor concludes that case against soldiers for Ko Par Gyi killing "erroneous"

Asia Human Rights
Processes left no doubt that the military had abducted, illegally detained and killed Ko Par Gyi, and had then attempted to cover up the killing. Furthermore, when the facts of the case came out, the army attempted to distort the narrative by concocting allegations that the killed man was an insurgent; allegations that were shown to have been baseless.
