This past September several international media stories on Canada's MAiD program have re-ignited the baby MAiD debate. The British newspaper Daily Mail asked the CMQ for an update on its stance and was told the organization now believes "medical assistance in dying may be an appropriate treatment for babies suffering from extreme pain" and that "parents should have the opportunity to obtain this care for their infant." The FDA and the Dangers of Chemical Abortion
Audio recording of Dr. Ryan Anderson, President of the Ethics and Public Policy Center on the topic of dangers of chemical abortions. Debunking the Myth of the Transgender Child
Mia Hughes: "This devastating convergence of medical, political, and cultural forces ensured that countless innocent children--rather than being given the freedom to grow, mature, and explore different identities--were locked into a lifetime of medicalization, embodying an identity imposed on them before they were old enough to understand what was at stake."

The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has surged in recent years, with users of AI platforms now numbering in the billions around the globe. Despite this growth, little attention has been paid to how AI technologies may impact real human relationships. In particular, very little is known about how the emergence of AI relationship platforms that replicate romantic and sexual interactions may impact dating and marriage relationships, as well as the personal well-being of the users of these technologies. A deeper understanding of these trends is needed, as a recent IFS study recently found that 1 in 4 young adults think AI boyfriends and girlfriends could replace real-life romance. New Study Finds Lasting Effects of Divorce on Kids
The relationship between divorce and kids has always been a hot button in the discourse. That kids are affected by divorce is quite clear. But while the immediate effects of divorce go mostly undisputed, many doubt that divorce has a lasting impact into adulthood. Five Reasons Porn is Bad For Your Marriage
Viewing pornography has become one of the most common sexual behaviors among modern adults. Recent estimates suggest that anywhere from 50 to 70% of adult men and women view pornography on a regular basis. This has made pornography use an increasingly "normal" behavior and led many men and women and even some experts to question whether pornography use is really that big of a deal. The argument goes something like this, "How can something so common be harmful to relationships?" and "People in relationships who use porn often seem on the surface to be perfectly happy and healthy, so what's the big deal?"

Editorial
Since the birth of the first "test-tube baby" in 1978, in vitro fertilization (IVF) has provided hope and a path to parenthood for many couples who cannot conceive naturally. The Catholic Church, however, has consistently rejected IVF - not out of hostility to suffering couples, but because of deeper beliefs about marriage, human life, and the dignity of the human person. The Church opposes IVF largely because the process usually creates multiple embryos in a laboratory. Some are implanted, but others are frozen, discarded, or destroyed. Since the Church views each embryo as a human life, this loss of embryos is considered morally unacceptable. The inherent dignity of a human person deserves full moral and legal respect and protection. The Church teaches that embryos must never be treated merely as a means to an end.

As I approach my eighty-sixth year, the twilight of life is bringing new challenges. Beyond the increasing aches and pains, psychological sufferings have come to the fore and demand greater attention than before, with loneliness the most prominent. In some societies this trend is starkly visible: for example, in Japan in 2025, people aged 65 and older make up nearly 30% of the population, and an estimated 70% of them report feelings of loneliness. What is loneliness? Even though it walks beside us, does it define who we are?

Holiness, unfortunately, is often confused with sanctimony, and sanctimony tends to get mixed in with perfectionism, which in turn is usually a means of shaming others - children in particular. But holiness is not perfectionism. Holiness is love; holiness is charity. Ann Farmer
In a post-Christian society, the revolution's message is pleasure without limits, but unlimited debauchery has led to diminishing returns, a reminder that the hungry man appreciates food more than the glutton; that the Victorian factory worker appreciated his annual day out at Blackpool more than modern man and woman enjoy their endless foreign vacations. However, according to sexual revolutionaries, the fall of man began with Christianity; consequently, humanity must return to a more civilized paganism. But although pre-Christian societies were highly sophisticated, so were their methods of torture and killing; their attitude to weakness was to trample on it. Angel Alvarado
The story of Maduro's extraction is not a tale of foreign intervention. It is a story of internal collapse, human suffering, and the eventual recognition - by Venezuelans and by the world - that a government cannot indefinitely destroy the lives of its citizens without facing consequences.

Two separate research teams in China have grown primate embryos in vitro for 20 days, in a development that has reignited debate over the 14-day limit on human embryo experimentation. The life of older people helps to cast light on the scale of human values; to reveal the continuity of the generations and wonderfully to demonstrate the interdependence of the People of God.

Three Thai men have advertised their "marriage" on the internet and appeared in Thai media, claiming the distinction of being, possibly, the first gay men to have a three-way wedding. Joke, 29, Bell, 21, and Art, 26, had their ceremony on Valentine's Day in Uthai Thani Province. Steven Mosher
The abortion revolution is putting on a big push in Colombia, the latest victim of First World-funded efforts to impose abortion-on-demand in Latin America.

Rights are not first moral principles. A right is nothing other than a corresponding obligation. Rights are derived from obligations which in turn are grounded in the precepts of natural law. In fact, the precepts of natural law are really just basic modes of responsibility.

Evil comes in many clever disguises. In the case of the concoction of steroidal hormones known as "the pill," evil is packaged and sold as a panacea for the world's problems and as women's ticket to freedom. In reality, the death-dealing birth control pill has spawned an immoral society obsessed with self. This selfishness is destroying women, babies, families, and the nation.
