From Newsweek:
Pope Francis criticized women this week who believe they have the “right to a child” in a new declaration.
On Monday, the Vatican published its “Infinite Dignity” declaration, sharing the Catholic Church’s views about abortion, surrogacy and transgender rights. “First and foremost, the practice of surrogacy violates the dignity of the child,” a portion of the declaration said. “Because of this unalienable dignity, the child has the right to have a fully human (and not artificially induced) origin and to receive the gift of a life that manifests both the dignity of the giver and that of the receiver. Moreover, acknowledging the dignity of the human person also entails recognizing every dimension of the dignity of the conjugal union and of human procreation.”
