No. In fact, the Catholic Church is very much in favor of adoption, and against abortion. The Fifth Commandment very clearly states, "Thou shall not kill" (Ex 20:13). Life begins when the egg and sperm join to create a zygote (link added). Therefore, abortion is the destroying of that life and is murder. If a woman finds herself pregnant and does not want to keep or take care of the child, the Church teaches that adoption is the loving choice. The Catechism of the Catholic Church, even recommends that infertile couples adopt (CCC 2379). Adoption allows the mother to still live her own life without having to take care of a child, while the child gets a chance to live.
