The Silencing Of Women: The Irish Abortion Laws And Religion, Rachael Wright
The Silencing Of Women: The Irish Abortion Laws And Religion, Rachael Wright
Journal of International Women's Studies
This essay attempts to look at the unfortunate circumstances that surround women in Ireland in regards to abortion. Rather than looking at the pro- and anti-life arguments which are commonly discussed when approaching abortion issues, I have chosen to concentrate on the legal and ethical matters in Ireland that seem to have control over Irish women’s bodies and consequently their personhood.

Atheistic Propaganda In Our Country, John Theodore Mueller
Atheistic Propaganda In Our Country, John Theodore Mueller
Concordia Theological Monthly
Dreary though it may be, the subject of atheistic propaganda in our country nevertheless demands conscientious study, especially by our pastors and all who are directly interested in the young people of our Church in order that ways and means may be found to safeguard their spiritual welfare, in particular while they are attending colleges and universities.
Only a short time ago we were horrified by the blasphemies of agnostic Modernists. To-day, however, we are facing a foe that is even more treacherous and pernicious. Modernism, with all its vagaries, at least endeavored to preserve some kind of religion and …
