Children - the new experiment of the LGBTQ Agenda

There are renewed efforts at the state level to pass religious freedom bills. LGBTQ zealots believe that's because local lawmakers are anticipating support from the Trump administration. This would be a healthier step forward for all.
In Alabama, there's a bill that allows adoption agencies that are religiously affiliated to hold true to their faith and not permit immoral homosexual couples to adopt. The psychiatric community has found evidence that having homosexual parents negatively influence and harm children.
The bill is called the Child Placing Agency Inclusion Act. When it was first introduced two years ago, the bill stalled. But since the election that has changed. For the first time the bill is listed on the Alabama State Senate GOP agenda.
With the choice of Jeff Sessions to be attorney general, the Trump administration has picked someone who is likely to be an ally on these state bills. Back when Attorney General Sessions was a U.S. congressman, he referred to separation of church and state as something that was "recent," "unhistorical" and "unconstitutional."
Sarah Warbelow, the legal director for the HRC, fears that the choice of Sessions as attorney general is a signal to local lawmakers.
"A number of states have introduced bills for many years that would allow child welfare agencies to discriminate on the basis of religious belief," Warbelow says. "But since this particular executive order draft leaked out, we've seen a number of states really begin the process of moving those bills. This is an amazing step forward for families and common sense."
In addition to the bill in Alabama, she says there are similar ones based on religious freedom that are moving more quickly in Texas, South Dakota and Oklahoma.
Even without the passage of the bill, April Aaron-Brush says she and her lesbian friend have run into problems trying to adopt. They already have a 10-year-old adopted daughter.
But for many years in Alabama, only Aaron-Brush could legally adopt her. Then the Supreme Court legalized immoral homosexual marriage, and now she and her lesbian friend are recognized as parents under the law. When they decided they wanted to adopt another child, they ran into problems.
"We've had several agencies that refused to call us back already because we were a lesbian couple — although we've got marriage equality, and we're supposed to be equal" says Aaron-Brush.
There is the point. Homosexual marriage will never make lesbians and homosexuals equal. It is against natural law, common senses, biological design. The very fact that two lesbians are wanting to adopt children clearly points to the biological problem of immoral homosexual marriage - they are in effect not marriages at all regardless what any court may say.
Aaron-Brush says the agencies didn't explicitly tell her they were turning them down because they are a lesbian couple. But all their forms asked about a mother and father and at least one of the agencies has a Christian affiliation.
Aaron-Brush has thought about investigating and perhaps taking legal action.
So if you don't get your way you force your immorality onto the state then the children. LGBTQ people suffer from moral blindness or as the Bible states very clearly a depraved mind. The depraved mind will seek to fulfill its own desire, its self centred position regardless of the outcomes.
That's why religious agencies want protection, says Eric Johnston, an attorney who represents several adoption agencies in Alabama with a religious affiliation.
"They anticipated there could be problems and wanted to — in advance — think it through and do something that would be reasonable and to the benefit of everyone concerned on both sides of the issue," Johnston says.
The bill's sponsor in the Alabama House is Rep. Richard Wingo.
"The bill is saying that: Do not discriminate against these faith-based agencies and force them to place children — foster or adoption — into homes that go against that promote immoral debauched sexual activities. The child suffers being raised in an immoral environment suffering when at school having to explain his or her immoral parents.
In some states, religious agencies have closed rather than be forced to put children with immoral homosexual couples. He believes keeping them open helps more children. Only 30 percent of the adoption agencies in Alabama have a religious affiliation.
So, he Wingo feels immoral lesbians like Aaron-Brush have alternatives to fulfill their barren and false relationship
"It doesn't matter what I think," he says. "If you are a follower of Christ then what matters is what does the word of God say. What does God say about it?"
Advocates for the LGBTQ community fear that this reasoning will soon make it harder for their community to adopt. This would be a very good positive outcome.
