Fine, you believe in God, and if He decided to bless you with a child, then so be it. But look, I don't believe in God—I truly think He doesn't exist—and as a citizen of this country, I find this law absolutely insane. The church should mind its own business, and this isn't one of them. Keep your spiritual and moral sermons for Sunday Mass.

I really think discussions about "GOD" should happen on a different forum, not this one. And besides, if you think that "THE SAME" entity you mentioned doesn't exist, well, you wouldn't even be here. Personally, I don't think God himself is meddling in this law—it's the church and the Catholic faith doing the meddling. Honestly, I agree with you completely, and I'm not sure why you feel attacked by me; I’m just stating my opinion, just like you are. This law is a matter of faith and the church because it strikes right at the heart of marriage and family. As for Sunday Mass, I don't go there to hear sermons—I go to gather some wise, moral, life-essential advice so that people like you actually have something intelligent to say. Regardless of whether you agree with the law or not, things won't turn out how you want; they will turn out however Congress decides. 😁

Honestly, I can't believe some of the nonsense being posted here. I’m fully on board with the law. I’m 27 years old and living with Lupus—which means there's an 80% chance I’ll never conceive, and even if I did, the odds of a healthy pregnancy are slim to none—and it never once crossed my mind to try and play God with my life. If God doesn't grant me a child, then there’s a reason for it. Besides, there are far too many abandoned children in foster care right now who are just waiting for someone to actually look at them, let alone adopt them. I truly feel for everything you all are going through, but I can't find a single point where I agree with you. By your logic, shouldn't gay couples be allowed to raise children too, so kids can grow up thinking it's perfectly normal to have two dads or two moms? To me, that’s essentially the same as living in a cohabiting relationship; I believe a child should grow up within a marriage, surrounded by the love of a man and a woman, providing the strongest possible foundation for their life. And as for how many abortions our Secretary Miller might have overseen—if he even did—well, everyone eventually answers for their own sins, him included.
