Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s hopes of having new baby are crushed after their priest forbids them
Nicole had her first daughter, Sunday, naturally, while their second daughter was born via a surrogate. Both Nicole and Keith have been dreaming of having a third child to join Sunday Rose, 7, and Faith Margaret but it seems that the dream has been dampened after the Nicole’s church said that it is against her using a surrogate.
Father Ed Steiner, who is Nicole’s priest at the Cathedral of the Incarnation in Nashville close to her and husband Keith Urban’s main home, explained: “In our tradition we would say using a surrogate should not be done". The pastor added, “A person’s choice is their choice and they have to make it according to conscience. Our job is to help them form their conscience and then make a decision.”
Nicole has become more deeply involved in church than ever since the death of her father, Anthony Kidman, in 2014, so the church’s opinion would mean a lot to her.

Well there you go. Another case of religion exploiting people when they're emotionally weak.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
