This is where we are in our culture. Because of discrimination against a homosexual, we aren’t allowed to have a preference for traditional married couples in adopting.
Is it really a benefit to society, that now they won’t be providing adoption services at all?? Is this really a beneficial outcome of the push for homosexual marriage, and the whole array of LGBT issues????
OK, but really, it’s not a great time for anything with “Catholic” in the name to be getting on a high horse with respect to the proper care of children.
These agencies need to be firmer, in refusing adoption and fostering to “individuals who are either mentally, sexually or emotionally unsound, or who place their own feelings and self importance far ahead of those children they crave to control to validate themselves.”
WOW! A catholic organization standing by its principles. How rare is that nowdays!
Wonder if it might have been more strategic to change to an adoption consulting agency, not facilitate adoptions in NY and channel to their office in PA or NJ...
What is the state’s hold over Catholic Charities? Why can’t Catholic Charities simply operate independently of the State of New York. Match a child with adoptive parents; the parents file for a legal adoption. Unless Catholic Charities is using state money, I don’t see where the state comes into it.
