When abortion becomes the default “solution” to an unexpected pregnancy, rather than empowering women, this mindset, among other things, gives cover to careless men who don’t want to take on the role of fatherhood. Such is apparently the case with early aughts pop star Britney Spears, who revealed in her upcoming memoir that 20 years ago, her boyfriend at the time, Justin Timberlake, pressured her into having an abortion.

By Rev. Paul T. Stallsworth:
In that infamous year 1968, the Evangelical United Brethren Church and the Methodist Church entered into a union to form The United Methodist Church. ... United Methodist elites—high-steeple pastors, bishops, and professors—presumed they would provide the religious leadership needed by American society and government. To accomplish this, they believed the church needed to be “relevant.” So these elites were forever responding to—usually by seeking the approval of and putting their stamp of approval on—whatever was happening or popular in American culture.

A New Jersey Democratic congressman wants to shut down pro-life pregnancy resource centers that provide free diapers, clothing, counseling, and other services. Using his authority as a congressman, U.S. Rep. Josh Gottheimer called for a shutdown of pregnancy resource centers, which he calls “brainwashing cults.”

By Jennie Bradley Lichter:
A university is not a social services provider; we don’t run a maternity home; it is not our task to lobby extensively for changes in the law. But what we can do, we determined, is make sure that moms and dads are fully supported—and family life is celebrated—at our university. That, therefore, is the task to which we publicly committed ourselves on the day that the Dobbs decision was announced.

St. Ignatius [of Antioch] would understand the selfless, lifesaving witness of prolifers, as well as the rabid attitudes and actions of the authorities operating under the color of law. What the saint would not understand is how so many Christians have allowed this to happen by keeping our beliefs to ourselves, not speaking out or spreading the Gospel, and failing to pass on the faith to our children, so that so many churches now look like senior centers.

Cautionary tales involving medication abortion, both before and after the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson, are plentiful. Just last month, a Nebraska mother was sentenced for giving her teenage daughter, who was well into her third trimester of pregnancy, abortion pills that she obtained through the mail. Her daughter gave birth to a stillborn baby in the shower, and the two then attempted to burn the fetal remains before disposing of them in a field.

By Diane Moriarty:
Since human desire is such a force on its own (my heart went boom), did anybody really need to ride to its rescue? Doesn’t it make more sense to have brakes than no brakes, even if, truth be told, we are more likely to tap them than slam them on? And in the large scheme of things, doesn’t tapping have merit? Fire and brimstone preachers have merit too, even though nobody really listens to them, and the wise ones know it. But it’s good to rattle the rafters now and then to make up for our (sometimes delightfully) sinful natures, to even things out, to put things on an even keel. And to make sure that “Do the right thing!” always has a place at the table. Had. There was a seismic change fifty years ago.

By Rev. George G. Brooks:
Saints are distinguished by their light, divine light shining through them into worldly darkness. What does that mean? Nothing necessarily dramatic, certainly; nothing to merit their names being remembered in history books. It means that they lived by the Spirit they received in the Christian sacraments of Baptism and Confirmation; they were people who lived by faith and hope, and most of all by charity, the love of God and neighbor; people in whom Christ the Lord was manifested in a myriad of human forms, appropriate to every age and circumstance; quite ordinary people doing ordinary things with (we might say) extraordinary style.
