In his years at Oxford, Newman studied the scriptures and the writings of the Early Church Fathers in depth, awakening in him a passion for what the Church could become, true to its foundations. He described reading them as 'music to my inward ear.'

I wish there was a way we could boycott for the state sanctioned slavery, persecution, harvesting of Organs, brainwashing, torture, jailing of Falun Dafa/Falun Gong and The Uyghurs.

To be clear I mean boycotting the communist mainland People's Republic of China.

Not the free and democratic Republic of China (Taiwan)
Or Hong Kong

"Humility is the mother of giants. One sees great things from the valley; only small things from the peak." - G.K. Chesterton

@timorl @SecondJon I agree with timorl, there is no difference between Annemarie and Anne&Marie but it seems that Annamarie is closer to baby selling than Anne&Marie. Is it because two fondamental moments of being a mother (conceiving and gestating) are separated that makes it appear less problematic? This is what I am trying to understand.

@SecondJon @timorl Adoption is noble and praiseworthy. It gives a family to children that found themselves in difficult circumstances. What I am discussing here, instead, is the opposite. Traditional surrogacy deliberately separates children from their mothers. I personally object every form of artificial reproduction but I think the law should permit ivf within the couple. I wouldn't use it but I don't see strong reason to ban it.
Instead, every other procedure that deliberately separates a child from their natural mother and also father should not be permitted by the law because it is not in the interest of the child.
