Today is the anniversary of Roe, which technically was overturned 3.5 years ago. So what this anniversary and Sanctity of Human Life month mean in 2026? My reflections today @mereorthodoxy with a lot of help from @FavaleAbs's beautiful new novel. mereorthodoxy.com/in-this-ho…

Love the gloss of @FavaleAbs's novel having the setup of a Hallmark Christmas movie (big city academic snowed in in her childhood home)... but there are demons. mereorthodoxy.com/in-this-ho…

For those who want a deeper dive into the theological and anthropological foundations of the new Catholic feminism, I'd highly recommend @FavaleAbs beautiful series at cultivatingcatholicfeminism.… as well as these engaging lectures at Notre Dame last year: mcgrath.nd.edu/conferences/a…
Apparently this lecture of mine at Benedictine College made the @ThomisticInst top 3 episodes of the year. podcast.thomisticinstitute.o…

“Freedom isn’t the right to buy and sell everything, but the space to live without being bought or sold.”

Love this reflection from the great Helen Alvare. "Or as my Brian used to ironically say: 'You’ll show them, Helen! Getting up at 4:45 am, going to bed late, being exhausted at all times, pasting yourself together with makeup and Tylenol. Yeah that’s taking it to the man!'"
The New Feminism is so much a part of my professional and personal and spiritual life—for over thirty years—that I have struggled to separate it out and hold it up for inspection. --Helen Alvare hubs.la/Q03Vxdpb0

Umm human beings are not plants, sorry And my subjective experience of pregnancy and miscarriage does not determine what's real I'd recommend keeping Aquinas' philosophical principles and ditching the medieval embryology rather than the other way round
In part two of her piece "The Theological Problem of the 'Choosy Womb,'" Alisa Ruddell discusses the Botanical Paradigm as a way to understand the nature of and our relationship to the unborn. frontporchrepublic.com/2025/…
