Beneath the Surface: Exposing the Abortion Pill Drug Cartel
This report seeks to expose the abortion pill drug cartel and prove there is no such thing as an abortion-free state in the US (Appendix IV). It also seeks to detail other more conventional methods of obtaining these pills. Finally, the report will shed light on the lack of action for this crisis, leaving us to ask: Why are state and local governments turning a blind eye to baby killing?

Pope on AI: Decisions affecting human life must never be delegated
Addressing participants in a meeting dedicated to AI, Pope Leo stresses the importance of keeping the human person at the heart of this technology to avoid the danger of threatening the common good and reducing people to data points.

Ukraine: WFP provides hot meals to Oleshky evacuees as UN pushes to restore power before winter
The UN World Food Programme (WFP) is providing emergency food assistance to more than 400 people who were able to leave the Russian-occupied city of Oleshky, in Ukraine's Kherson region, during a brief local ceasefire.

Who Are the Groups Fighting to Mutilate Children and Keep Boys in Girls Sports?
Most adult Americans oppose mutilating and sterilizing children who struggle with sexual identity confusion, and they also know it's wrong to allow boys and men to invade girls and women's sports, showers, locker rooms and restrooms. But a well-funded, extremist coalition of groups - including LGBT activists, pro-abortionists, teachers unions, leftist legal groups and environmentalists - support harming children and denying girls equal opportunities.

'Trans Kids' Madness Is Built On A Foundation Of Constant And Increasingly Aggressive Lies
They're building transgender speakeasies. As red states ban sex-rejecting procedures for minors, and the Department of Justice shuts down pediatric transgender facilities at hospitals, the business is going underground. Two reports published this week reveal the degree to which the industry that performs sex-rejecting procedures on children relies on subterfuge and sneaking."

Air raid alerts and attacks on schools: the devastating face of education in Ukraine
Ukraine has sustained almost 2,000 attacks on education since the full-scale Russian invasion in 2022, with some 270 this year alone, the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) said on Tuesday, a day after a strike at a school being used to distribute aid.

Gender equality pays off for business - so why are companies pulling back?
Gender equality and diversity are good for business - but while increasing numbers of women are reaching top spots in the corporate world, more initiatives are needed to keep momentum going.

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."

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. During a recent four-day retreat, the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate in Japan and Korea were invited to rediscover that first "Yes," to reflect on God's faithfulness through the years, and to renew our commitment to His mission. I invite you to join us on this spiritual journey through eight reflections that remind us of something deeply personal: God took our "Yes" very seriously, and He continues to do so today. 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...

The Fire of Jesus. (ordinary 20 2022)

Proclaim Sermons
After a quick reading of this text, we might dismiss it as being an obvious mis-remembering of what Jesus actually said. Perhaps Luke has injected his own political perspective into a conversation which, many years after the fact, he can only dimly recall. However, a closer look at Jesus' manic outburst is telling a[euro]* telling us that he said what he meant and meant what he said.

Faceless & Unreal

Ron Panzer
If you are rushing through life, busily doing, getting and keeping, you don't allow the intimacy of caring. You do not recognize the other's world. You live, but are not alive. You "see", but not with open eyes. And so you see nothing that truly matters. You close yourself off from being hurt, yet suffer the worst pain of all. For while physical pain hurts, your loneliness and isolation torment.

Declaration on Euthanasia

Official Documents
The rights and values pertaining to the human person occupy an important place among the questions discussed today. In this regard, the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council solemnly reaffirmed the lofty dignity of the human person, and in a special way his or her right to life. The Council therefore condemned crimes against life "such as any type of murder, genocide, abortion, euthanasia, or willful suicide" (Pastoral Constitution "Gaudium et spes," no. 27).

Post-Abortion Stress Syndrome: Parents Are Victims Too

Shenan J. Boquet
Of all the victims of abortion, it is perhaps the mother and father who are the most neglected of all. The trauma they experience both during and after abortion is rarely given the attention it deserves. But that trauma is real, and those who suffer from it need help.

Passionate Views

Douglas McManaman
People are very passionate about their views, but that is the last thing in the world we should be passionate about. We ought to have, on the contrary, a passion for truth, a passion for learning, but not a passion for our views.
