Aw, touchof heaven - anyone's welcome to join the conversations. Great post, by the way - I completely agree.

And "AdoptionPossible" - if the Church had a position against it, then their own Family Services would at least ASK if you could have bio children, and they don't. I mean, they ask your reasons for wanting to adopt, (and I heard they turned down one couple who could have bio, but it was because she said she could have bio kids, but didn't want to ruin her figure or take time off work, so they wanted to adopt. I think the agency figured there were some issues that couple needed to work out...LOL!!) But I know of people who have adopted through the church, who did also or could also have bio children, so I think you can safely assume the Church is fine with it, and why not? It is totally in line with everything we know about eternal families and life and love and everything "Touchofheaven" wrote, too.
