After the Illinois state legislature passed a requirement that says adoption and foster-care agencies — to be eligible for state money

At last, a straight up article on the subject.

The bishops should start lobbying for tax credits for donations to private social services organizations such as Catholic Charities and The Salvation Army. Cut out the middle man.

Children have a right to be raised by a mother AND a father, period.

Shame on the state of Illinois for legislating that a child doesn’t deserve a mom and a dad.

This is starting to be a trend. Catholic Charities suspended adoption services for similar reasons in:

1. MA (2006) http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2006/03/11/catholic_charities_stuns_state_ends_adoptions/

Yes, Mitt Romney was governor at the time. No, he didn’t do anything about it.

2. DC (2010) http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/same-sex_marriage_law_forces_d.c._catholic_charities_to_close_adoption_program/

3. Additionally, the charity locked horns with UK authorities over equality laws:

Divorce. Remarriage. Adultery. Fornication. The Pill. Abortion.

These are the things so-called “normal” people have been indulging in for decades. The wreckage created by these people extends to the specter of homosexual marriage now upon us. No society is given over to that perversion unless they have first given up natural relations in violation of God’s designed order.

The requirement to consider gay couples for adoption is a move by unscroupulous peoples to tie up adoptions so that genuine heterosexual couples cannot adopt children until the exotic peoples are considered. That should not be. The people who are not in male-female marriages cannot be considered. That is a rulc of God not man.
