Loving Babies As They Come
Louis R. Tarsitano on God’s Providence & Procreation
Dinesh D’Souza, a writer I often admire, recently had an article in National Review entitled “Staying Human: The Dangers of Techno-utopia.” I usually don’t pay much attention to articles in either the “utopia” or “dystopia” genre, preferring my science fiction straight on those rare occasions when I indulge.
D’Souza, however, wasn’t writing science fiction, but merely providing a grim summary of current events. That last business of “techno-utopia” is a fancy way of saying that men in laboratories are preparing to enter the business of selling parents biologically engineered and genetically altered “designer children.”

—Alice von Hildebrand
"Here we do not concede one square millimeter of territory to falsehood, folly, contemporary sentimentality, or fashion. We speak the truth, and let God be our judge. . . . Touchstone is the one committedly Christian conservative journal."
