6. Is this reference to "balance" from another thread, or am I missing a post?

FWIW, while I disagree with the Catholic Church on reproduction, I do have to admire the fact they don't at the same time advocate state-sponsored killing, and actually have tried (even though their discrimination against gay couples in adoptions is another thing I disagree with) to advocate for children after birth, the hungry, etc.

They're a little less hypocritical than the average "pro-life" Protestant. For that they get some grudging respect from me.
