-fiction is not reality, the views of a character are not the views of the author, it is bad to consider a work of art dangerous or unacceptable because it might be "contaminated" by association with someone who has had the Bad Thoughts, a constantly-moving target of Good Thoughts ultimately means that nothing creative or enjoyable will be approved by the censors of every place and time, freedom of speech is good actually, etc etc -I probably would not touch this with a 39-and-a-half-foot pole!
Short story rather than novel, but Mysterion (Christian speculative fiction site) just published The Remnant, which is in part about the challenge of "who will be my disabled kid's caretaker after I die"?
