The first pillar of a decent society is respect for the human person. 

Essays published within the Human Person pillar address human dignity and the need to respect all human life. Topics include but are not limited to abortion, assisted suicide, bioethics, and race. Other essays focus on man’s search for meaning, touching on questions of religious observance and theology as well as the need, in a pluralistic society that does not always respect human life, for robust conscience protections.
