We Could Be Doing Something About Our Birth Rate Problem. But We Aren’t, by Aubrey Harris

By Aubrey Harris, American Spectator - Earlier this month, some Senate members attended a closed-door briefing with FDA Commissioner Marty Makary. One of the topics of conversation? The abortion pill, mifepristone... Apparently, the briefing didn’t go super well. The FDA is in the process of doing a safety review of mifepristone, but according to Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), Makary couldn’t give a timeline on that review... It should be noted that the safety review is rather important. Last year, the Ethics and Public Policy Center used insurance claims to determine that “the rate of life-threatening complications due to mifepristone is at least 22 times higher than what the FDA … suggest[s].”

The Trump administration does not have to wait until the review is conducted to mitigate the damage caused by mifepristone.”

That was God’s instruction in Leviticus (2:13). Salt was poured on the offering to prevent decay and corruption. It prevented the ancient Hebrews from giving the Lord a second-rate and therefore unacceptable sacrifice. ... For several centuries, up until 1970, blessed salt was placed in an infant’s mouth by the priest at baptism. ...

Fr. Shenan J. Boquet: An Encouraging Return to Reason: American Medical Organizations Warn Against “Gender-Affirming Care” for Minors

By Fr. Shenan J. Boquet, Human Life International - Last week, I told you about how pro-euthanasia and assisted suicide measures are stalling in several nations in Europe, as opponents are raising significant concerns about how such laws have been abused in other nations, and how there are dignity-protecting options that provide authentically loving support for those facing end-of-life situations and dilemmas, e.g. better palliative care... Now, this week I can report a remarkable new development in the fight against radical gender ideology....
