Contraception as “preventive care?” According to the federal Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, “preventive care” refers to “those situations in which consumers may consider themselves healthy or physically at risk but have not yet been labeled with a diagnosis.” Unlike a pre-cancerous mole that must be excised, sexual intimacy between a man and a [...]

Another excellent piece from Mercatornet: The illusion that moral diversity is a viable social strategy is at its last gasp…. [F]or about sixty or so years, Western culture has been engaged in a protracted rebellion against whole swathes of public ethics. For whatever reason, our culture has effectively disdained to engage in moral debate on [...]

Thought-provoking: Granted that in 1954, unmarried pregnant women had “less” of a choice: either have an illegal abortion, get married, or give the baby in adoption. Joanne Schieble chose the latter. Her generosity gave our generation the Apple computer, the ipod, iphone and ipads. We even have the myriad of Pixar movies thanks to her, [...]

Life requires harmony. We see it throughout nature. Without harmony, whether organic or inorganic (e.g. mechanical), breakdown results and chaos ensues. This is what liberal feminism does. It causes breakdowns and chaos with its persistent objective to divide genders. Like a self-loathing individual, it spews animus toward everyone, especially men. Patriarchy, with all of its [...]

This cogent letter to the editor highlights a startling fact that you aren’t going to hear in the mainstream news: Planned Parenthood’s own research demonstrates that greater contraceptive use does not reduce abortion. We’ve said it before: “Follow the money.” PP stands to make millions of dollars (including out of the taxpayer’s pocket) as the [...]

Sridhar of India’s Business Daily has posted a pointed commentary about sex-selective abortion and the “ideal family” in India: A look at India’s census reveals a country obsessed by boys and sex-selection laws that no one will enforce.

Margaret Somerville asks, “Is a society without disabled citizens really a perfect society?” Just when some scientists are on the cusp of discovering a drug for treating people with Down syndrome, others are busy refining the technology which will make them disappear completely.

Carolyn Moynihan chimes in on the birth control issue with this excellent piece: Forty years ago modern contraception was sold to women as part of a liberation package: at last they would be in control of their fertility and their lives. The pill was their passport to fewer children, economic independence and, as it soon [...]

So much for the myth that greater access to birth control will lower the abortion rate: A new study conducted by a former research arm of Planned Parenthood shows the policies of the abortion business promoting contraception and birth control to poor women aren’t working, as unplanned pregnancy rates are rising…. With the Planned Parenthood [...]

From Carolyn Moynihan at Mercatornet: Asian marriage is in the news, with The Economist reporting on “the flight from marriage” in that part of the world and the London Telegraph noting the materialism which is delaying marriages in China. As we saw last week, divorce is booming in China. But young urban women are also [...]
