Do you have some evidence to support your claim?

Why shouldn't Christians be allowed to be foster parents? They can provide a better, more stable environment than a home with no moral code, and no rules.

You really are an angry person, aren't you.

Your anti-Christian rant is not bigotry?

Not every religious household is moral, stable and have rules.

Religious doesn't mean moral. Especially in today's world.

Many non religious people have a moral code and are stable.

The most important thing about taking care of kids is their well being, not some barbaric ideology. If christians can't put their bigotry aside, then step aside to let other foster parents take care of the kids.

And FYI, rosie hair is the name of my pet spider. Has nothing to do with my gender.
You think Christianity is a "barbaric ideology?' What makes Christianity 'bigotry,' in your view?

Is your last statement an admission that you are male, and a homosexual?

Christians absolutely should be foster parents. They should not, however, share their religion with their foster child - including the beliefs of some Christians regarding homosexuality.

I plan on fostering. My foster kids will not be raised Jewish. Sure, I will include them in celebrations and teach them about my faith, but I will have NO expectation that they will follow it. To do so would be an abuse of power.

Here's the problem with morals: They're not universal. I consider people who teach that homosexuality is wrong to be highly immoral. You, clearly, do not - why don't you need morals? See how that works?

You are free to order your life as you see fit, based on any criteria you want to adhere to.

But as long as you live in a free society with other grown adults making choices for themselves, you're going to have to learn to do you and let others do them.


This is not a hard concept.



By the way: Things are a LOT better now than they were through most of history when the church was in charge. And one only has to look at how dynamic and successful societies are today that intertwine too much religion into their society. When was the last time YOU heard the headline, "Saudi Arabian scientists discover...."?
