Catholic Charities of Washington DC was forced to end their foster care and adoption program in Washington DC because of the city's onorous requirements that they license same-sex couples. This, of course, would have been a violation of our core religious beliefs. Read the account in today's Catholic Standard.
I applaud the Catholic Charities for taking this stand. We practice charity because we are Catholic - not in spite of our faith. The Missionary Baptist Ministers' Conference of DC and Vicinity have come out in support of Catholic Charities, stating that faith-based organizations should not be expected to put faith on a back-burner.
