But it is the societal rights of each individual to experience nurturing, and what society wouldn't want that quality of nurturing to be as high as possible. To forgo the entire experience of a child of having the opportunity to have parents, because of 1 of millions of beliefs of the parental individuals is what's laughable. Especially when no other information is given as to the bountiful other aspect of nurturing that having these parents could provide. They've apparently done well with other children. The state shouldn't be giving money to homophobes, racists or Nazis, they should be giving money to parents who take care and nurture their children, which clearly was an epic fail here.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
