catholic church has refused to allow catholic kids to be adopted by gay couples coz it goes against their beliefs. theyre willing for gay couples to adopt from other orgs but not catholic adoption agencies. gov refusing to exempt them from disciminating against gay couples.
yesterday i heard radio 4 demonising catholics as extremists i jusrt thgt wait a minute this sounds all too familiar, pass the buck momentarily from muslimsto catholics.
so who is in the right or wrong? i support the catholic church on this issue. the gov is asking them to amend their religious beliefs it simply cant be done. if gay couples wana adopt there r plenty of non religious orgs which will accept them, there is no debate.
intellects or so called r saying religions shudant impose their beliefs on us, but i say neither shud secularists and heathens shove their beliefs upon us as if it is the only moral way forward.
The agency shouldn't be forced into this. I don't know much about adoption but I imagine Jewish and Muslim agencies would face much the same dilemma. The morals surrounding adoption seem to me very tricky though and since I'm so uncertain, I'll say it is food for thought.
