Scottish Adoption Agency Threatens To Close Over Gay Adoption Mandate

In Scotland, Rev. Joseph Devine, the Bishop of Motherwell, has said that Glasgow's Catholic adoption agency, St. Margaret's Children and Family Care Society, will close rather than comply with UK's Sexual Orientation Regulations that came into effect earlier this year. (See prior posting.) Those regulations would require that the agency permit adoptions by same-sex couples. Yesterday's LifeSite News reports on Bishop Devine's comments.
