Victory for women, girls: Federal court rejects Biden admin redefinition of ‘sex’ in Title IX across country

On April 29, the Biden administration announced it would redefine “sex” in Title IX rules to include “gender identity,” requiring schools to disregard longstanding sex-based protections that respect the biological differences between men and women. The Biden administration’s radical attempt to redefine sex not only tossed fairness, safety, and privacy for female students out the window, it also threatened free speech and parental rights…” A federal district court in Kentucky issued a decision Thursday in State of Tennessee v. Cardona that blocks the Biden administration’s unlawful attempt to change the meaning of “sex” in Title IX—a federal law designed to create equal opportunities for women in education and athletics—to include “gender identity.”

Politician with terminal cancer says people need better palliative care, not assisted suicide

A politician diagnosed with terminal cancer is speaking out against assisted suicide in the United Kingdom as the nation considers its legalization. 40-year-old Matthew Wren was chosen as the 2024 Reform UK candidate for North East Fife, just days after being diagnosed with terminal cancer.

Seasons of Motherhood and the Power of Flexibility

In a culture that is widely resistant to seasonality, it is unsurprising that we also resist the idea that mothering changes over time. As significant subsections of generations become stuck in place through this resistance to seasonality, we must take seriously the idea that the role and experience of motherhood are not fixed, but are and ought to be changing as children grow. To live fully all the seasons of motherhood, we need to challenge this culture of stasis and become more open to seeing motherhood as characterized by change, ongoing discernment, and flexibility.

The Perils of Forsaking All Others for Self

The Knot, a wedding website, ran a study finding that the average age of men and women getting married is now 32 and 30 respectively. The Pew Research Center found that 25 percent of adults over the age of 40 have never been married. Young adults are not just delaying marriage–they are avoiding it all together. Why is this so? Katy Faust, president and founder of Them Before Us, writes in a recent issue of World magazine that many young Americans may be putting marriage off because they have no idea of what a functional marriage looks like in the first place.

Believe it or not, Christianity is making a comeback

“Something profound is happening,” writes Peter Savodnik. “Instead of smirking at religion, some of our most important philosophers, novelists, and public intellectuals are now reassessing their contempt for it. They are wondering if they might have missed something.” “We’ve gone from ‘religion is a crutch for the weak-minded’ to ‘Christianity works even if I don’t know why.’” After years in the cultural wilderness, there’s something the saints can praise God for.

McDonald’s Sued over Hispanic Scholarships after Ditching DEI Initiatives

The American Alliance for Equal Rights, led by conservative legal activist Edward Blum, alleges that McDonald’s has been unlawfully discriminating against high school students from other ethnic groups through the decades-old scholarship program. “So non-Hispanics — including non-Hispanic students with severe financial need and racial minorities like blacks, Arabs, and Native Americans — are flatly barred based on their ethnic heritage,” reads the lawsuit filed in Nashville, where the International Scholarship and Tuition Services is operating the program. “This kind of discrimination was never lawful.” The suit requests a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction that bars McDonald’s from closing the application window or selecting this year’s winners.
