Then do enlighten us O' wise one. How is it constitutional to treat same sex couples differently?Yet another manifestation of rightwing fear, ignorance, bigotry, and hate.May 4 (Reuters) - The Kansas Legislature on Friday approved a bill that allows faith-based adoption agencies to turn away gay and lesbian couples based on religious beliefs, and the state's governor said he would sign it.
Under the measure, the Kansas Department for Children and Families cannot block any foster or adoption agency, including those that receive public funds, from participating in its programs only because it refuses to adopt or place children with gay people.
Opponents of the bill said they will likely mount a legal challenge.
Kansas lawmakers pass adoption bill critics say is biased against gay couples
Mixed emotions about this. As with ALL adoptions, every couple should pass a rigid strict test of some sort to make sure they are of sound mind. Which should already be the case, right?
And....if the agency that is handling the adoption states it is against their religious beliefs, that should be protected. Parents wanting to adopt can do so from other agencies that are not religious in nature, one would think.
Your thoughts?
“The U.S. Supreme Court last June reversed an Arkansas Supreme Court ruling and ordered all states to treat same-sex couples the same as heterosexual couples in the issuance of birth certificates. This and other court rulings have made adoption by same-sex couples legal in all 50 states.” ibid
Yet another manifestation of the right’s contempt for the Constitution, its case law, and the rule of law.
And once again, you show everyone that you know NOTHING about what you are speaking.
