Refuting the techno-myth and reclaiming childhood Screens are so pervasive in society that we tend to think of them as inevitable. They have become extensions of our bodies.

Gender Doctors Must Be Stopped "When this nightmare is over, I would like to see every single gender doctor who has ever written a puberty-blocking or cross-sex-hormones prescription, or has performed 'gender-affirming' surgery, reprimanded for the senseless mutilation of our children, whether the victims are minors or young adults."

Editorial
Dear Friends for Life: Many individuals in today's society understand the pain felt by mothers after they have aborted their babies. But what about Post-Abortion Syndrome which affects men? As the body count of unborn babies continues to increase, research shows that more and more fathers are desperately crying out in pain as a result of these abortions. While browsing google on this topic, I ran across the following article: "My 'Friend' Assumed I'd Be Pro Abortion for Cleft Babies Like Mine & He's Dead Wrong". This, in turn, resulted in writing on abortion and unborn babies with cleft lip. "I leaned down and kissed my son."

Ethical Perspectives Jose Lim Consciousness is not simply a phenomenon that can be arbitrarily dispensed with or suppressed at whim: it is a critical element of the human experience, particularly in the last chapter of one's earthly existence, during which one comes face to face with the mystery of suffering and the meaning of life. Ann Farmer As a disabled person, I find the campaign for assisted dying in the UK extremely worrying. No disability group in our country supports the move, which is perhaps why such voices are so seldom heard. Kurt Mahlburg Shellenberger argues that the techniques originally developed by US intelligence to foment regime change abroad have since been adapted for domestic use to suppress dissent within America, specifically on topics such as Covid-19 and the 2020 US election. Those tactics include media manipulation, civil unrest, engineered social movements (ie, cancel culture), and the framing of dissent as extremism and a threat to democrac Marianna Orlandi Living for others is hard for everyone, in any stage of life. And in a culture that exalts the autonomous self, it is hard to remember that sacrifice is the only path to flourishing. Christopher O. Tollefsen For one thinking clearly about the issue, the incrementalist approach is not only permissible, but obligatory, a matter of justice to those unborn human beings who can, but otherwise will not, be saved.
Asia Human Rights Bangladesh continues to disregard the calls of the UN Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances (WGEID) and the Human Rights Committee to end enforced disappearances. Israel "Izzy" Kalman Do you have an overweight child who's being bullied? Have you followed the universally offered advice to inform the school, only to find that the problem has continued and even escalated? If so, you are not alone. You may have come to believe the problem is intractable, but the solution may be simpler than you've imagined. John Stonestreet Young men aren't forming social bonds with real, live people, even the kinds of bonds that have historically captured their attention. Michael Cook A fascinating case is unfolding in Israel pitting a anonymous sperm donor against a woman who demands his sperm. The arguments are worthy of a novel - or at least an afternoon soap opera. Michael Cook Is there a meaning to Haiti? 200,000 dead; 1.5 million homeless; the chaos of looting and raping, hunger, thirst, disease. The randomness of the deaths -- children, an archbishop, a head of United Nations operations, slum dwellers, police. The Haitians were already living in one of the poorest, worst governed nations in the world. Now they have to struggle with the worst humanitarian disaster ever faced by the UN. Why? Michael Cook The Icarus-like rise of Japanese stem cell research Haruko Obokata has ended with a gigantic splash. Ms Obokata was found guilty of scientific misconduct by Japan's RIKEN Institute after an article and a letter published in Nature were found to be supported by manipulated data. Michael Cook The population control lobby is far from dead. There still are highly influential academics who fervently believe that increasing aid for population control (aka reproductive rights, women's health, safe and legal abortion) is absolutely necessary. Without it, the world will turn into an over-heated, war-torn slum heaped with festering mountains of garbage.

Tamara El-Rahi Author Aidan Madigan-Curtis talks about her experience with egg freezing, and it's not like she paints a glamorous picture - 11 days of self-injecting hormones, egg extraction surgery, mood swings, bodily changes and a huge hit to your wallet.
