STEM CELL ETHICSBy Judie BrownThe good news out of Australia this week is that stem cells harvested from the noses of Parkinson's patients developed into dopamine-producing brain cells when transplanted into the brain of a lab rat. And while there has been no word about the potential for the human who is suffering from Parkinson's, there should be every reason for optimism.

AN APPEAL FROM FAITHFUL CATHOLICS TO AMERICA’S BISHOPS PLEASE PROTECT THE BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST FROM PRO-ABORTION ‘CATHOLIC’ POLITICIANS As a faithful Catholic, I respectfully make this appeal to the Catholic bishops of the United States: WHEREAS the Church teaches that abortion is always an intrinsic evil, and; WHEREAS the Church teaches that the sacred nature of the Eucharist is worthy of every protection, and; WHEREAS the reception of the Eucharist by those who publicly support abortion gives scandal to the Catholic faithful and offends Christ; THEREFORE, we humbly implore each of you to take the actions necessary to...

WASHINGTON, DC, February 7, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) - "Saving Those Damned Catholics" exposes the warts on the underbelly of the Catholic leadership in America today, and it is not a pretty picture.
