EROSION OF FAMILY: Trends for Divorce, Unwed Mothers on the Rise (Guests in EDT and CDT)
|
Look around Middle America and it may seem difficult to believe that divorce rates have remained steady at 50 percent since they spiked in the 1970s. And yet, while numbers don’t lie, sometimes there is such a thing as “more truth” within the numbers. Beyond the flat divorce-rate figure—which, arguably, in and of itself is a problem most troubling because we’ve become desensitized to it—there are all kinds of studies in circulation that don’t reflect well on America’s societal fabric. For example, three University of California, San Diego, professors found that divorce is actually “contagious,” based on the fact that to associate with a divorced friend increases your likelihood of also ending your own marriage by 147 percent. At the same time, the Pew Research Center...

THREE DAYS OF DEATH: Unofficial U.N. Conference in D.C. Has a Troubling Focus (Guest in EDT)
|
A host of independent international and United Nations agencies have assembled together to meet for three days this week—June 7th through the 9th—to conduct part two of the Women Deliver conference. The first Women Deliver, held in London two years ago, was dedicated to addressing the issues of maternal, child and newborn health around the world. But, in light of what participants back then came to discover about the conference, Austin Ruse, the Director of the Catholic Family & Human Rights Institute (C-FAM), can explain why part two underway right now in Washington is so troubling. In London, many were taken aback by the conference’s heavy abortion push, operating then and now under the deceptive, euphemism-rich rhetoric of “reproductive rights” for the sake of “maternal...

U.N. PUTS TROUBLING TARGET ON YOUTH: Conference in Mexico to Feature Heavy Pro-Abortion Lobby (Guest in EDT)
|
They’re calling it the World Conference on Youth (WCY), in the United Nations’ “International Year of Youth.” Sounds like a noble cause that should encourage all those who shall inherit the earth . . . except the youth who are too young. As in, so young they aren’t born yet. Austin Ruse is the Director of the Catholic Family & Human Rights Institute (C-FAM), an organization that diligently tracks the social policy movements of the U.N. and works to have a family-advocacy place at the table of every U.N. social policy negotiation. Unfortunately, the latest U.N. endeavor that falls under this category—this new Youth Conference—has been largely kept under wraps while its organizers, including sponsor and pro-abortion group, Catholics for Choice, have selected which organizations...

NEW WORLD ORDER IN THE COURT: Justice Nominee Kagan Shows Partiality for Foreign Law (Guest is in EDT)
|
In the archeological dig that is a background check on a Supreme Court nominee with no judicial experience, those looking to study up on Obama’s choice of Solicitor General Elena Kagan have to be resourceful. It’s not like Kagan is some kind of phantom from nowhere. But, nonetheless, anyone doing his or her homework on this nominee must turn the due-diligence dial up a notch. And for someone like Austin Ruse, Director of the Catholic Family & Human Rights Institute (C-FAM), that means finding her affinity for foreign law a sticking point. Ruse’s organization has been steeped in United-Nations-centered international social policy debate for nearly the past 15 years, working hard to combat the UN’s inclination to intrude on sovereign nations and, in particular, impose international...
