This was originally published on the Christian Post Brandon Showalter Amid heightened debates over abortion jurisprudence, an increase in men undergoing vasectomies is manifesting with the urological surgeries being promoted as “acts of love.” However, one scholar contends that promoting vasectomies in response to abortion restrictions reveals an ideological underbelly.

Andrew Cuomo Case Proves That #MeToo Is Not Enough
The only way to make the workplace, the movie studio, the sports arena and even the Church free from sexual misdeeds is to reject the toxic ideology of the sexual revolution once and for all.
Andrew Cuomo Was the Poster Thug for the Sexual Revolution
The governor who left empty beds on theUSS Comfort and at Samaritan’s Purse, while dumping hundreds of COVID patients on helpless residents of nursing homes, killing thousands still uncounted (since his office refused to count them) is out of politics. And why? For getting what women used to euphemistically call “handsy” or “fresh.” In reality, his harassment of women employees was simply Cuomo acting on his real beliefs about human dignity, instead of the boilerplate Woke-speak he uses when the microphones are switched on.

Run by canon lawyers-turned-journalists Ed Condon and JD Flynn, The Pillar reported to have used commercially available signal data from the location-based Grindr “gay hook-up” app to show that Msgr. Burrill had used this app on a regular basis. The Pillar’s report did not include accusations Msgr. Burrill engaged in sexual misconduct with minors.

Fr. Paul Sullins: "SOCE doesn’t make persons more suicidal. In fact, it does just the opposite. It reduces suicidality a lot, and in certain measures, it reduces the suicidality by about 15 times: They’re about 15 times less likely to make a suicide attempt."

Ruth Institute Suvivor’s Summit: Exploring the Rotten Fruit of the Sexual Revolution
Our society is under attack from within. Those in the helping professions — doctors, educators, counselors — all have faced a challenge from the Cancel Culture. The culture wrought by the sexual revolution demands that we abandon our Christian principles, replace the traditional family and embrace a whole new culture of sexual “freedom” which promotes same-sex “marriage,” transgenderism, premarital and extramarital sex and abortion as societal goods.
Opinion: Religious foster care plays a vital role for our most vulnerable children
The Supreme Court just decided Fulton v. Philadelphia, a landmark case involving the rights of religious foster care agencies to operate while still observing their religious beliefs. Several prominent social science narratives have sprung up around this case: One is that a allowing religious foster agencies to continue the work they have done for more than 200 years will limit the supply of foster parents, and another is that religious agencies operating on traditional sexual beliefs will harm LGBTQ children. As Muslim, Catholic, Protestant and Latter-day Saint scholars, we want to set the record straight on both of these narratives.

Survival Mode: Flash Floods, Trauma and Childhood Sexual Abuse
Natural disasters and childhood sexual abuse are both life-threatening events. People respond to trauma in understandable ways, regardless of the specific circumstances of that trauma. And people with no direct experience of trauma tend to misunderstand the traumatized. I think I’m learning some things that may be of help to the Church in our quest to deal with the tragic legacy of sexual abuse.
The Fate of Nations Hinges on the Future of Marriage

The Jewish Roots of Family Values
His exaggeration aside (many Christians do know how to raise children in holiness), Hyun seeks a family renaissance by drawing from the wellspring of Western civilization – the Jewish family. Family values are Jewish values. To understand the origins of the traditional family, we must look to the Torah and the traditions of a people who gave the world God-based morality.

The World Health Organization Abortion Problem
The World Health Organization, which should ostensibly be increasing health worldwide, seems to have forgotten that abortion is the antithesis of healthcare. The WHO said, in a 2012 publication, that 47,000 die from “unsafe” abortions worldwide annually. Clearly, they’re referring to the women for whom the abortions are performed. The actual number of deaths, however, is at least twice what is being reported. For every mother who dies in an abortion, there is at least one child who also dies. Instead of 47,000, a minimum of 94,000 women and children die every year.

PornHub’s Problem isn’t Consent
“Consent” isn’t strong enough. An arbitrary age isn’t strong enough. The underlying problem is that too many of us believe sex is a recreational activity to which all consenting adults are entitled.
