U.S. Supreme Court sides with Catholic foster agency

WASHINGTON – A unanimous Supreme Court ruled Thursday that a Catholic foster care agency in Philadelphia may turn away gay and lesbian couples as clients, a victory for conservatives with the potential to shift the balance between LGBTQ rights and the First Amendment's protection of religious exercise.

I'm not sure how I feel about this.

On the one hand, private businesses should be allowed to turn away customers for any reason.

OTOH, kids are involved, and I'd rather them be in a caring homosexual household than no household at all.

It's because those Far-Right Catholics want to keep as many children under their care as possible. Deplorables.

But it's being touted as "a victory for conservatives", why do conservative victories usually rely on intolerance and cruelty being the driving forces?

I wonder what the rates of child molestation is in gay vs straight couples.

What are you implying?

I'm not sure a foster agency should be rooted in Religion.

Foster agencies should do what's in the best interest of the child(s).

I'm not implying anything. I was actually wondering.
If it's much higher in gay couples that could be a reason the catholic church would want to discriminate.
If the reverse is true, then that's increasing the likelihood of victimization of children.

It depends if it's public or private.
If it's religious I'm assuming it's privitize, which would automatically be better for kids.

This paper compares the children of gays vs. straights

Whoops the paper is locked

The NFSS was a flawed study, not grounded in science.

Also, it's clear now you and Klaw had planned this with that agenda, so another silly Klaw bait thread :/

Correlation, not causation?

Sure, I'm not committed to the idea that homosexuals are bad parents.
Overall homosexuals do have higher time preference, which I don't think is great for a parenting mind set.

Shouldn't a foster agency do what's in the child(s) best interest?

Why is the study flawed ? The sample size was pretty big at 15 k.

Why would we plan a thread ?

I believe in a child market.

Edit: so yes, society should do what's best for children.

We planned this?

Hilarious.

Since you like wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Family_Structures_Study

"Most notably, only 2 children in the study had actually lived with homosexually partnered parents for their entire childhoods." -snip

Yes.

Actually, I did actually have a small laugh at how silly and obvious you two were here.

Oh cool, thank you for letting me know.

I like Wikipedia in concept, but there's some hiccups in practice i.e. Stefan molyneux's page.

Overall Wikipedia is cool with me for the most part.
