ARE WOMEN STILL HUMAN?

By EPPC Fellow Carl R. Trueman and EPPC Visiting Fellow Alexandra DeSanctis
Public Discourse

The issue of abortion cannot be reduced to the narrow question of the status of the child in the womb. The answers rest upon broader assumptions about what it means to be human.

By EPPC Distinguished Senior Fellow George Weigel

The correct answer to the question of when human life begins is not a matter of faith; it is a matter of scientific fact. Read More

VIDEO: The Transgender Revolution in the Classroom: What Parents Need to Know

 
Transgender ideology is flooding public school classrooms. What does this mean for our children? And what can parents do?

EPPC Fellows Patrick T. Brown (Fellow in Family Policy) and Mary Rice Hasson (Person and Identity Project) and author Maria Keffler (author of Desist, Detrans, Detox: Getting Your Child Out of the Gender Cult) share expertise, sound advice, and the latest research in an engaging conversation led by Catholic Studies Program Coordinator Ella Ramsay. Essential viewing/listening for parents of school-age children!

VIDEO: On Vaccines and Mandates: Moral, Medical, and Legal Considerations

 
How should we think about the morality of Covid-19 vaccines, given that all of those currently available in the United States benefited in one way or another from a cell line that was derived from an aborted child? How should we think about the morality of government mandates relating to the vaccines, and to businesses that impose their own mandates? How do religious liberty and conscientious objection to the vaccines factor in? This webinar addresses all of these questions, and more, drawing on the extensive expertise of EPPC Fellow Aaron Kheriaty, a medical doctor; EPPC Fellow Roger Severino, a lawyer with expertise on civil liberties and healthcare; and professor Jason Eberl, a philosopher specializing in bioethics. EPPC President Ryan T. Anderson moderates the discussion.

WHO HAS BEEN POLITICIZING THE HHS OFFICE FOR CIVIL RIGHTS?

By EPPC Senior Fellow Roger Severino
National Review Online

Under HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra, and under the day-to-day direction of a political appointee, the HHS Office for Civil Rights has lost its way and is being politicized beyond all recognition. Read More

CLINGING TO GOD AND GRAMMAR

By EPPC Fellow Carl R. Trueman
First Things

In times past, progressive politicians described those they despised as clinging to “God and guns.” I suspect that we are not too far from a time when they will insult those they deplore for clinging to God and grammar. Read More

SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO

By EPPC Senior Fellow Francis X. Maier
Public Discourse

One of the disagreeable facts about members of every elite modern leadership class—take the Boston to Washington corridor, for example—is that they tend to nibble, metaphorically, on the people they lead. Read More

GOING FOR BROKE

By EPPC Fellow Stephen P. White
The Catholic Thing

By almost any measure, America is the wealthiest nation in the world. Whether compared to other nations of the world today or in the past, ours stands out as perhaps the most affluent society in history. Are we better for it? Read More

NOEM MUST FIX SOUTH DAKOTA STANDARDS FIASCO

By EPPC Senior Fellow Stanley Kurtz
National Review Online

Hard-left activists have taken over the writing of K-12 history and civics standards in ruby-red South Dakota. Governor Kristi Noem’s administration has belatedly attempted to set things right, but the troubled standards are nowhere near fixed. Read More

DEMOCRATS’ IMMIGRATION POLICIES ARE A GIFT TO REPUBLICANS

By EPPC Senior Fellow Henry Olsen
The Washington Post

The image of thousands of Haitian refugees huddling under a bridge in Del Rio, Tex., is forcing illegal immigration back into the national consciousness. That’s bad news for President Biden and his fellow Democrats, as this is a major political vulnerability for them. Read More

DOES THE EEOC REALLY GET TO DECIDE WHETHER RFRA APPLIES IN EMPLOYMENT-DISCRIMINATION LAWSUITS?

By EPPC Policy Analyst Rachel N. Morrison
National Review Online

RFRA should be available in all cases as a defense whenever the government substantially burdens religious exercise — regardless of whether the government is a party to the lawsuit. Read More

DON’T LOSE SIGHT OF THE INFLATION MONSTER

By EPPC Senior Fellow Henry Olsen
The Washington Post

August’s inflation report was heralded as a sign that rising prices are slowing down. If only that were true. People so want to believe that inflation is temporary that they will seize on any good news as a silver lining. Read More

On the latest episode of EPPC’s Faith Angle podcast, EPPC Faith Angle Forum Director Josh Good is joined by Paul D. Miller of Georgetown University and Nadine Maenza of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom to consider why events unfolded the way they did in America’s withdrawal from Afghanistan, and what that means for America’s presence and foreign policy around the world.
