On morally complicated questions, the saints in the institute will not help us (comment)
KDH is poking his head again in the sand.
Surrogate or surrogate motherhood, a process in which a substitute mother will carry and give birth to other people by agreement, should be according to KDH prohibited at the constitutional level.
This happens literally according to the key on the eye and the right hand, which must be got rid of, not to do the bad (I wish this rule also applied in the direction of Direction). And since Cyril and Method, as well as the marriage of a man and a woman, will not be afraid to observe this constitutional concrete, we have nothing to worry about.
The world will be fine and no rented uterus will endanger the welfare of brave families.
KDH could also understand the story of the most famous pregnancy of all time that the circumstances of conception and birth are often much more complicated and more intimate than we would have expected. And before we wish.
For order, however, let’s say things that need to be said. Substitute motherhood is not a simple thing from any side and brings with it a number of ethical, legal and practical difficulties that accompany it and will accompany it.
In order to alleviate the potentially dark sides of this phenomenon, we need a discussion. Long, complex and one that will take into account all stakeholders. Couples who, ugly, « order » the desired child. Mothers who bring it and give birth. Medical facilities, various institutions and authorities that will inevitably be present in this process. And, of course, children whose rights and safety must come first.
And let us also honestly, also that such a discussion is completely out of the mental possibilities of the country that needs to get two sexes into the Constitution, ideally with a picture side dish.

Moreover, KDH makes an even thicker closure with its efforts to ensure constitutional anchoring and shows that it has an infallible ostrich Reflex. Before any moral problem of the human community, it always puts his head into the sand of prohibitions. This, of course, completely excludes dialogue and the ability to perceive the world in its complexes.
Substitute maternity is only one of the marginal challenges that, in addition to progress in medicine and associated areas, are waiting for us and which will simply happen, whether someone in KDH likes it or not. Science today can genetically adjust the embryo, embryonic screening is a reality and the population ages so sharply that even before euthanasia we will not be able to cover our eyes indefinitely.
If we are unable to face the tricky theme of surrogate motherhood, how do we stand up to the more moral and professionally more complex? Do we put even more saints in the constitution to solve it for us?
