An Open Letter

Dear Mr. Robertson,

Please retire.  Please stop saying ugly, thoughtless things in the name of Christ.  You are giving us a bad name.  Those of us that adopt don't do it to create some sort of Utopian family.  We do it because we believe Jesus cares about little white boys from Annapolis, and beautiful brown girls from Ethiopia, and especially those with an extra chromosome or a cleft lip.  If He cares about precious ones languishing in the foster care system, in impoverished countries, or with birthparents who chose adoption over abortion, shouldn't we?

In Christ,
Wendy

  1. Totally agree! I was so disappointed to see how wrecklessly he handled the discussion. I emailed the network pleading that they encourage him to retire while he still has SOME respect from the Christian community. Very sad.....
