ARGH
I thought that I was used to my low-end, frustrated simmerings about the Catholic Church. I thought I had come to a certain kind of peace with the reality that I am permanently out of step with certain teachings, but still consider myself deeply a Catholic. But here's the thing:
Catholic Charities of Boston has decided to cease ALL of its adoption processes rather than allow same-sex couples to adopt kids.
Catholic Charities was particularly good at placing kids with special needs, so for them to cease operations altogether places those most vulnerable at even further risk. I'm so angry and sad right now that I can't even think straight about what to say about this. But the straws on the camel's back of my commitments to the church are piling up...
