Paedophile church continues to protest over Government plans to allow non-paedophiles to adopt children. It also seems that the Catholic Church does not believe it has any moral duty to look after the welfare of children as it would rather shut down it's adoption agencies rather than face placing children with loving gay families.
Don't worry your Grace, Ruth Kelly is doing what she can to help you out. Honestly, only a Prime Minister that didn't plan on facing the masses again would appoint someone like Ruth Kelly as 'Equalities Minister'. I don't mind her sending her child to a special needs school, I don't mind her being part of some Catholic special club with it's own secret handshakes and special whistles and I don't care about what religion she chooses to believe in, but if she's going to be Equalities Minister she can't get fussy over who's rights she protects. If Catholic priests were allowed to adopt children themselves then the argument might be different, although then there's the question whether a member of the Church provides a good role model for impressionable children.
