Girls Just Want a Locker Room I watched the video from outside Barclays Center on Saturday more than once because I wanted to be sure I was seeing what I thought I was seeing. A crowd showed up to support Sophie Cunningham and a pretty uncomplicated proposition: girls deserve locker rooms and sports of their own. Another crowd showed up to oppose them. And based on what I watched, some of the descriptions of the demonstration don't look much like the video. What a Male Breastfeeding Image Reveals About the Transgender Movement Conservatives may be tempted to laugh at the absurdity of a breastfeeding organization featuring a man attached to breast pumps, but we shouldn't simply move on--it reveals something important about the effect of transgenderism on America's institutions. First, what happened? Confusing the innocent Australia now has a confused generation of teenagers raised in the shadow of gender identity divorced from biological reality, according to Professor Emerita of Psychology Dianna Kenny. ...The definitions of 'man' and 'woman' were removed from the law. As a new protected attribute, the concept of gender identity uncoupled from biological sex was introduced. Abortion now leading cause of death in Scotland, a new analysis of data has revealed According to the most recent data published by Public Health Scotland, there were 18,783 terminations of pregnancy recorded in a single year. ...When these figures are integrated into wider human mortality data from the National Records of Scotland--where all cancers combined accounted for 16,486 deaths recorded in Scotland in 2025, ischaemic heart disease for 7,000 deaths and dementia accounting for 6,612 deaths--the loss of unborn life stands as the highest single source of mortality in the nation. This Isn't Healthcare: How the abortion pill kills and injures Heavily marketed as 'safe and effective,' the abortion pill has rapidly grown in popularity among women seeking abortions. It now accounts for about 65% of all abortions. Pro-abortion groups portray the abortion pill as just another 'treatment,' even using the moniker 'medication abortion.' But medication is meant to heal, not intentionally harm. The abortion pill is not healthcare. The Mothers Who Regret Their Children New York Magazine earlier this year published an article featuring women who say they regret having children. The lead sets the stage: 'Sooner or later, everyone has to decide whether to give up lazy weekends, disposable income, and overall peace of mind to have a baby instead.' What follows are three stories of young mothers who look back on their pre-baby lives with longing and conclude that motherhood itself is the source of their unhappiness. With Abortion Pills, The Abortion Clinic Has Moved Into the Home
For most of the modern abortion debate, we could focus on a physical location. There was a clinic. There was a doctor. There were protesters outside and counselors nearby. Legislatures debated how those facilities should be regulated, courts debated what restrictions states could impose, and the pro-life movement organized much of its work around the places where abortions occurred. Increasingly, abortion doesn't take place in a designated space. It happens at home. Canadian Doctors Promote Plan to Euthanize Newborn Babies
A Quebec physicians' group is again promoting euthanasia for newborn babies, saying euthanasia can be an "appropriate treatment" for infants with severe disabilities or malformations even though Canadian law still forbids the practice and a baby cannot consent.

Editorial
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.
Continue reading at Fr. Jerry's Blog... Ethical Perspectives Douglas McManaman A non-repressed and openly gay Catholic is one who can live that faith without looking at women as inferiors, but as equals, who is free from the need to create and control an environment that fuels an unhealthy narcissism that exploits others, and who lives in hope and with a healthy self-esteem, and yes, a certain degree of pride. Marianna Orlandi Technology is not our problem. Our problem is an obsessive concern for our own good, our distrust of others, and the terror of losing ourselves. No algorithm will solve this. Steven Mosher Monty Patterson loved being a dad with his whole heart. So when a nurse called to tell him that his 18-year-old daughter, Holly, was in the ICU, he dropped everything and rushed to the hospital. That day quickly became the worst of his life. Glenn Stanton Pride Month 2026 marked the date on which two of its groundbreaking leaders publicly confessed their movement's ungovernable anthropological problem. Shenan J. Boquet On Wednesday, August 12, a baby boy was born three weeks early in a hospital near Dallas. This is hardly an unusual event. However, that this particular child was born was a near miracle. Baby Gabriel had been the target of a conspiracy against his life that nearly resulted in his destruction, and which has drawn international scrutiny of one of the darkest, and least-talked-about aspects of the surrogacy industry.

Judie Brown Physician assisted suicide is euthanasia; bringing about the death of a patient by any act of omission or commission is euthanasia; euthanasia is murder. Brian Clowes The child is not an object to which one has a right, nor can he be considered as an object of ownership: rather, a child is a gift, "the supreme gift" and the most gratuitous gift of marriage and is a living testimony of the mutual giving of his parents. For this reason, the child has the right to be the fruit of the specific act of the conjugal love of his parents; and he also has the right to be respected as a person from the moment of his conception.
David C. Reardon This is the challenge faced by advocates of abortion havens. How are they going to prevent their havens from being turned against women? The word "choice" sounds good. But far too many women have abortions because they feel "I have no choice." Asia Human Rights With the publication of the 2017 Global Hunger Index Report, it is clear that India's dreams of becoming a superpower, with world class airports and bullet trains, are all hyperbole. The utopian narrative of modern India overlooks the fact that it is a country that fell three places down to 100 in the 2017 Hunger Index, and 45 places down overall since 2014. It is also a country which has 21 percent of its children wasted, a one-percentage point increase from 1990-1994, when it was at 20. In other words, for nearly 25 years straight, India has failed its children, while moving ahead in other areas. Dot McGinnis Remove the stench I have within, Lord, cleanse my tainted soul from sin.

In the end, the Balikpapan City police office officially informed Herman's family that he died while under Police detention. Herman's family faced difficulities in seeking to examine Herman's body. Seemingly, the Police did not provide enough access to the family to view the body. Michael Cook Same-sex marriage is back on the agenda now that social radicals have the balance of power.
