    So can you, asshole.

    I could, but I'm not going to. The idea that children born to surrogacy are somehow contributing to the global malaise and moral decline of the world is pretty fucking stupid. The fact that you appear to sympathise with his position doesn't automatically make it any less so.

    It's more likely he would give responsibility to the parents, not the children.

    Did you really get the idea that he was blaming the children?

      No, some people have belief systems and principles. Can't say boo-shit about Muslims around here without you taking up for them, so I don't mind taking up for this guy.

      He believes like very traditional Catholics do, that IVF, abortion, etc., all interfere with God's normal gifts of life. Maybe some people are not naturally going to conceive...Maybe that's God's Will. Maybe they adopt some unwanted child and try to give it a loving home.

      So you may not agree with his belief, but it's far from a fuck off.

      It’s also how same sex couples are getting children, which may be also what he was getting at.

        Caesarian section interferes with God's plan too. We should probably stop people doing that and have them die like in the good old days.

        Equating contraception, IVF and surrogacy with abortion is asinine.

        I was only joking

                  He's getting trashed on Tik Tok (younger crowd) primarily for encouraging women to quit the workforce and be moms at a commencement ceremony. It was pointed out that he has quite a nice home with 2 kitchens - and seems tone deaf when most Americans can't survive on a single salary. He was also beaten up a bit for what some felt were unnecessary attacks against the gay community. This and the Met Gala are hot topics right now with the villagers wanting to storm the castle and cancel elite rich people flaunting privilege while people are struggling through Biden's robust economy.

                      I think the reason they're so pissed, is that there is some truth there for some people.

                      1. A significant percentage of young women are now on psychotropic drugs. I think that stems from not having any grounding in your place in the world.

                        Maybe that's because some young women should work. Some should have careers. Maybe some should be homemakers. The career superwoman with two children is an unobtainable goal for many.

                          1. The Gay Agenda. Ever more radical, I'm not sure even the majority of LGBQT people buy into it.

                            There was a time that a significant percentage of Western women - single, married and widowed - were on laudanum. It was cheaper than booze and readily accessible.

                            Only the sophistication and regulation of the substances has changed since those days.

                              Bingo. Surrogacy has become a very contentious subject recently, primarily dealing with same sex couples.

                                How is it that surrogacy - other than gay couples - itself is considered anathema among the faithful?

                                  So you may not agree with his belief, but it's far from a fuck off.

                                  It’s also how same sex couples are getting children, which may be also what he was getting at.

                                  Bingo. Surrogacy has become a very contentious subject recently, primarily dealing with same sex couples.

                                  If he wanted to attack the gays, then he should just attack the gays. There's plenty of straight couples who've used surrogacy.

                                  Anyway, it's probably not worth me getting too upset about. Just another know-it-all celebrity pontificating about things outside his area of expertise.

                                    How is it that surrogacy - other than gay couples - itself is considered anathema among the faithful?

                                      Yes but he’s not some low IQ artist, actor, writer or musician. Rather he’s a professional athlete, specifically an All Star American football player, a modern day Maximus Decimus. A genuine crowd pleaser.

                                        A significant percentage of young women are now on psychotropic drugs.

                                        There was a time that a significant percentage of Western women - single, married and widowed - were on laudanum. It was cheaper than booze and readily accessible.

                                        Only the sophistication and regulation of the substances has changed since those days.

                                          Yes I have heard that statement from the Bishop of Rome. Still doesn’t tell what immoral about it.

                                          It too have a friend whose sister acted as surrogate. The family were staunch RCs.
