- More Bad Consequences of the Sexual Revolution July 14, 2009In 1956 Harvard sociologist Pitirim Sorokin wrote The American Sex Revolution.

It is changing the lives of men and women more radically than any other revolution of our time. . . . Any considerable change in marriage [...]
- Muddled Thinking on War, Peace and Justice July 14, 2009The broad topic of war and peace is a complex, multifaceted one which requires careful, prayerful and mature reflection.

It requires more than bumper sticker moralisi […]

- Redundant Males, Redundant Humanity July 9, 2009Two recent bioethics announcements have added a few more nails to the coffin of humanity.
