He told a gathering at the Pontifical Academy for Life that the field of human procreation seems to be ruled by scientism and the logic of profit,” which often “restrict many other areas of research.” He said that the Church is “attentive to the suffering of infertile couples…and her concern for them is what leads her to encourage medical research.”

Apparently bears in Yosemite National Park love them some minty freshness. And if toothpaste is on the menu, why not tampons? I mean, bears will eat most anything, right?

To its credit, North Carolina is the first state to consider compensation for victims of forced sterilization According to most estimates, there are at likely 65,000 victims of forced sterilization in at least 30 states. This figure does not include the forced sterilization of Native American Women under the care of the Native American Health Care System.
