In Boston and DC (to the bishops' credit and my surprise), they stopped performing adoption work altogether. But those are the exception and only happened because Sugar Daddy (a/k/a the government) pushed a little too hard too fast.

In Massachusetts, they facilitated thirteen adoptions by homosexual couples before they were exposed. They ceased facilitating adoptions because compliance with Church teaching conflicts with state licensing requirements. Putting up a legal fight would have put a damper on corporate and private donations (the St. Paddy's Day parade sponsorship withdrawals serve as a recent example of the financial punishment that goes with the territory).

I absolutely refuse to give one red cent to Catholic Charities USA, Catholic Relief Services, and my local diocesan Catholic Charities. The reason: they are little more than government social service agencies and, thank you very much, I already pay enough in taxes. My money will go to something else that is not so dependent. Like, for example, the Little Sisters of the Poor...who take NO government money for their important mission.

I couldn't agree more. Support authentically Catholic ministries, those that serve the Church without compromising Her teachings.

Thanks BlatherNaut,I didn’t know that about the adoptions.
