Archbishop rejects idea to allow gays to adopt children in Uruguay

Archbishop Nicolas Cotugno of Montevideo voiced opposition this week to a proposed law put forth by the government of Uruguay that would allow homosexual couples to adopt children, reports Catholic News Agency.

Archbishop Cotugno said the measure deserves disapproval “from the perspective of reason and the Catholic faith.”

The Constitution and Legislation Committee of the House of Representatives is studying a proposed law that would allow couples who have lived together for at least four years, whether cohabiting or married, including homosexual couples, to adopt children.
