Adoption Again
You know, I can't remember the last time I got as riled about a news story as I have about this "Catholic Church wants legal right to discriminate" fiasco. I started out just being angry about the evil Ruth Kelly once again putting her dogma ahead of her responsibilities, but now I'm just angry that this is even a debate.
And I'm angriest that the Catholic church, of all organisations, thinks it's in a position to take some nonsensical stance of 'conscience' on matters relating to the welfare of children. Presumably it thinks we'll all have conveniently forgotten its institutional campaign to protect child abusing priests and compound the misery of their victims.
