The Vatican released a significant document titled 'Infinite Dignity' ('Dignitas Infinita' in Latin) on April 8, 2024, after five years of deliberation, which reaffirms the Catholic Church's stance on various social issues including transgenderism, surrogacy, and abortion. The document, presented by Archbishop Fernandez, a papal ally and head of Rome's doctrinal office, condemns abortion, surrogacy, transgenderism, and gender theory, emphasizing the rejection of attempts to obscure the sexual difference between men and women. It criticizes gender theory, stating that all attempts to obscure the fundamental truth of sexual difference are to be rejected, and equates surrogacy to human trafficking. The Vatican maintained that homosexual acts are 'intrinsically disordered', aligning with traditional Catholic teaching. The release of 'Infinite Dignity' has sparked discussions within and outside the Church, with some viewing it as a reaffirmation of life and rejecting the secular humanist agenda, while others are concerned about its implications for the LGBTQ community.
The church’s rejection of gender fluidity, transition surgery and surrogacy has church liberals worried that it would be used as ammunition by the right. https://t.co/cDdbzcmbfz

The Catholic Church has just reaffirmed that surrogacy is equivalent to human trafficking. This presents a stark choice to @JamesMartinSJ and others who uncritically promote the LGBTQ ideology and its claim that gay couples have a “right” to children. https://t.co/4JBIsAmTXd
Very pleasantly surprised to see the Pope come out against gender ideology and sex changes. This thread is the most informative about everything in the new Dignitas Infinita document. It takes very strong positions for kids and victims of sexual abuse as well. https://t.co/fptNijaRY9
