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

[Skipper]

Since there are so many bigoted people, and it would only be truly fair to exclude bigoted people from adopting if all were excluded, that would mess up the foster system up even more than if we allow bigoted people to be foster parents.

I'd suggest that when bigoted views such as the ones this couple have are found, then the applicants are excluded from the adoption system. And yet we still have an adoption system. No doubt there are people who hold similar or worse views that get unnoticed and are allowed to adopt but that's no reason to let the ones we do find also adopt, minimisation has got to better than just giving up to "make it fair" to all bigots. This was a ruling that suggests a precedent for future applicants who hold other religiously backed prejudices and beliefs. They won't be tolerated over already in place human, secular laws. That's a good thing.
