Christian couple told they can't adopt due to their views on homosexuality.

I don't know if someone addressed it but I did read at least the first page of posts. Who is saying the couple is homophobic, the reporter? The cort ruled that because of their views on homosexuality based on their religious belief they couldn't adopt. That doesn't necessitate them being homophobic. I'm not homophobic, but I don't agree with a homosexual lifestyle and wouldn't promote it to my children, when it's a choice or compulsion. I think if that's the only reason they were disqualified, it might be more of a travesty for the child than a misconstrued win for society. They might be very positive influences on their local society. The fact they were willing to stand up for what they believe in, peacibly and honestly is a character trait I wish more children were instilled with. Just because you don't agree with a lifestyle doesn't mean you can't fully love a child (whether they live in that lifestyle or not) and make them feel loved and understood. Honestly, I'd love to see someone admit that this is just an atempt to push Christianity (or religious views) out of the UK. And before anyone says that there shouldn't be any religious beliefs in the process, you can't factor the human belief structure out of humanity. This process definately involves evaluating belief and intent.

@Skipper - I think I disagree with at least some part of every post I've read from you on the topic, so far.
