Firstly, if we are to be tolerant of all faith, I suppose the law should also be there to protect Catholic's views.

Secondly, as was hinted at earlier, it would perhaps be more prudent for the Catholic Church to first put their house in order, before worrying too much about the morality of same sex couples adopting children. The present Pope before he became Il Papa, was one of the most senior people who tried to silence the voices of the literally thousands of children who have been abused by it's priests. To me denying, and trying to cover up child abuse, is a much worse crime than letting same sex couples adopt a child.
