In the case of Christian Scientists and denying medical treatment, there is a body of case law (at least in the US) where the state can step in and override the parents religious beliefs to provide treatment for the child. Same with Jehovahs witness.

This is over cases where the child is the natural born progeny of the aforementioned.

What makes anyone think that adoption boards will be less picky when we have the above is beyond me.
