What of the servicemen who have to fight in the wars their governments decide to wage? Do they have an obligation to make a moral judgment about these wars in light of just war criteria? The Parental Rights Paradox
"Teachers, counselors, doctors, and social workers all play valuable roles in children's lives. But they are not parents. They lack the lifelong attachment and responsibility that anchor parental authority. For that reason, American law traditionally resisted allowing outsiders to direct a child's upbringing. The presumption has long been that parents, not institutions, should guide a child's development." How Trans Ideology Demolishes Itself
Insights from the Paradox Institute's Cynthia Breheny: "Proponents of trans ideology will go so far as to claim that acknowledging sex is an erasure of someone's trans identity -- even saying something along the lines of acknowledging sex erases their very personhood. And that's where the primary contradiction of trans ideology lies: in order for it to be a groundbreaking revelation about humanity, it has to have ground to stand on - it has to rely on sex." New: IOC Policy Protects Female Sports
On Thursday, The International Olympic Committee (IOC) announced a new policy to protect the female (women's) category in Olympic sports. Eligibility for female sports will now be determined by a genetic test for the presence of the SRY gene, which triggers male sexual development and cannot change. The IOC policy is likely to have downstream positive effects on international federations and sports governing bodies. However, past Olympic medals awarded to males competing in female sports will not be rescinded. Americans Oppose Mail-Order Abortions That Kill Millions of Babies
A strong majority of Americans of all political stripes support restoring regulations surrounding the abortion drug mifepristone, according to a new survey. Noelia Castillo Ramos Euthanized Despite Objections From Family and Friends

Pope at Mass in Monaco: 'You are called to bear witness to living in peace'
During Mass in the Principality of Monaco, Pope Leo XIV urges everyone not to grow "accustomed to the clamor of weapons and images of war," and insists that the Church in Monaco is called to bear witness to living in peace. "Let us not grow accustomed to the clamor of weapons and images of war! Parental Rights Are a Cornerstone of American Law
Andrea Picciotti-Bayer: "If our institutions truly wish to strengthen justice, remove barriers, and end violence against women and girls, they should begin by recognizing the irreplaceable role of parents who are present, attentive, and committed to their daughters' well-being." Seen But Not Scrutinized: The Paradox Every Parent of a Teenager Needs to Understand
Stephanie Winn (LMFT) gives sound advice to parents: "I want to address something specific for parents of trans-identified kids. Many of you are in a situation where the only time your child shows strong emotion toward you is when pronouns come up or when something related to their trans identity is triggered. Outside of that, it's polite distance. And the polite distance feels safe enough that you don't want to rock the boat. So you pretend you didn't see the hostile look. You barrel past the moment. You keep things surface-level. I understand that instinct, but I want to challenge it." More Headlines…

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.

Controversies are extremely prominent in the field of stem cell research, as scientists debate the different kinds and the varying benefits of each. Some stem cells are taken from adults or even from a mother's placenta. These are ethical sources. But some stem cells are taken from aborted embryos or from embryos created during IVF. We will explore why this is wrong, what the Catholic Church teaches on the subject of stem cell research, and what advancements have been made with a special kind of stem cell. Merlot Mary Fogarty
Can We Restore Hope in Women?s Healthcare? Change at all levels of healthcare, education, and policy need to be made to meet infertility upstream and to care for the health and well-being of women at all stages of life, including before they are trying to become mothers.

"Pro-life" is a controversial term among abortion advocates. Since pro-lifers advocate for the protection of human beings from the first moment of their creation, we are often called "forced birthers" or "anti-woman." We are told we care only about babies and not about the lives and well-being of their mothers. John Stonestreet

Abortion bans will expose women giving birth to "44 to 70 times higher than the mortality risk from abortion," according to a new study from the University of Maryland and Brown University.

The cultural heritage of the Church is as rich as Jewish culture. The best thing we can do to heal this postmodern culture is to learn the Catholic faith, immerse ourselves into this cultural heritage, create an atmosphere in our home, a Catholic atmosphere. Arthur Goldberg
Providing ultrasound images and making fetal heartbeat audible is Constitutional. Judie Brown
Biotechnology has made drastic advances over the past few years. This fairly new specialty which, oddly enough, began with the study of the fermentation process associated with brewing beer, is today all about genetic engineering - be it of plants or human beings. Biotechnology encompasses everything from making a baby in a test tube to creating a human being like Superman through the use of nanotechnology. Brian Clowes
The culture of death thrives on confusion because it knows that confusion leads to uncertainty, and uncertainty leads to paralysis. Every one of the dozen or so leading homophile groups is actively involved in laying down a thick screen of deceptive and distracting language, thereby hoping to divert attention away from what they are actually trying to accomplish. Douglas McManaman
Synopsis: There is no science of particulars, but ethics is about how to make good choices - particular choices - in particular situations. Thus, a knowledge of universal precepts is not enough. A prudent man does not merely know the good, rather, he knows the good because he is good. But how does this work? Asia Human Rights
In this short essay, we use advocacy to mean those efforts to promote understanding and to win support for matters relating to human dignity, equality before the law and respect for human rights. This unique use of the meaning of the term advocacy needs to be thoroughly grasped in attempting to evolve the methods pertaining to the various measures that are taken for such advocacy. Michael D. Pfeifer
In this presentation, I give a brief description of World Water Day and World Earth Day and their meaning for the planet on which we live, and how the theme and purpose of each day is a call for all humanity to show much greater appreciation and respect for our planet which Pope Francis calls our Common Home. The Pope points out specific ways all humans can show greater concern and care for mother earth and how we can protect it from more abuse and destruction by we humans. As guardians of the environment, we are to ensure the proper balance of the ecosystems on which all people depend.

Fifty years ago, United States Supreme Court judges invented a right to abortion for all America after feminists (and not a few men) insisted that, for women to stand as equal citizens with men, they had to be able to kill their unborn children. Steven Mosher
Once again the Philippines, a country with a living Christian culture, is under attack for having too many children. The population controllers are attempting to impose a two-child policy on the relatively pro-life, pro-family Filipinos, who now average less than three children. But Filipinos and Americans of Filipino descent are organizing and, at the end of this article, there is a way to help them. (Steven W. Mosher, President) Frank J. Moncher
The traditional family is under attack, most intensely for its views on human sexuality and its proper understanding and purposes: to join man and woman together in an exclusive and sacred bond which produces a unique union of love and the blessing of children. This notion, which was common sense for millennia and second-nature to our grandparents, is fading quickly from the cultural landscape
