UK Catholic adoption agency loses bid to ban gay parents from service
A Roman Catholic adoption charity’s appeal to be allowed to discriminate against gay people wanting it to place children with them has been rejected.
Catholic Care in Leeds, England, wanted exemption from new anti-discrimination laws so it could limit services provided to homosexual couples on religious grounds.
The Charity Commission said gay people were suitable parents and religious views did not justify discrimination.
In a statement, Catholic Care said: “The charity is very disappointed with the outcome.
I once asked a Catholic priest about gay marriage/gay adoption. He told me that we should be thinking about what is best for the child. Of course, I think 2 loving parents is better than none at all, but he didn’t seem to agree…
I am Catholic and I am very proud. But sometimes, I am a little ashamed for the other members of my church when they try to push things like this.
Wait… Catholic gay rights activist?? Isn’t that an oxymoron?
Of course not, but I can tell you a bigger one ;)
I feel like Nelson off...Simpsons… “HAHA!”
