Adopting Inclusion for Families of Faith, by Tony Perkins

By Tony Perkins, The Stream - Religious Freedom isn’t a “fringe” issue — but try convincing NBC. The outlet’s latest puff piece on LGBT parents is a typical one-sided angle on adoption — but maybe that’s the scary part. Because for all the attention they seem to give it, there’s always one theme that seems to be missing: the children...

By James V. Schall, S.J., The Catholic Thing - We are not gods, nor do we blend into some “all” wherein we no longer exist in our singular identity.
