So the new exemplar of Catholic Conservative Motherhood is the single mom?
That’s not a good thing.
And I wonder what the new exemplar of Catholic Liberal Motherhood now is? A gay single father?
Be careful with words, they have meaning.
Do you have a problem with a wealthy, attractive, intelligent (but single) Catholic woman adopting orphans and abandoned kids?
Or do you just have a problem with blondes adopting kids?
I’m lost - what are you referring to?
Is adoptive single motherhood the BEST thing? no, it isn’t. But Laura was dealt a raw deal with a fiance jilting her when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Should she not know the joy of motherhood, and in the process provide a loving, FAITH FILLED home to 3 children who would not otherwise have one, just because God’s plan didn’t include a husband for her? I think the Lord will understand, regardless of whether moralistic, imperfect Freepers do or not.
Words do have meaning.
In your case, they are decoupled from anything remotely resembling rational thought.
Laura got jilted while dealing with Cancer. And remained faithful, despite those difficult circumstances.
I guess you were sleeping this Sunday past.
Gospel Mt 15:21-28 At that time, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon. And behold, a Canaanite woman of that district came and called out, Have pity on me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter is tormented by a demon. But Jesus did not say a word in answer to her. Jesus disciples came and asked him, Send her away, for she keeps calling out after us. He said in reply, I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. But the woman came and did Jesus homage, saying, Lord, help me. He said in reply, It is not right to take the food of the children and throw it to the dogs. She said, Please, Lord, for even the dogs eat the scraps that fall from the table of their masters. Then Jesus said to her in reply, O woman, great is your faith! Let it be done for you as you wish. And the womans daughter was healed from that hour.
