The United States is not the only country where attacks by socially progressive officials in government on Christian foster and adopting agencies have developed.
Article by Bob Unruh from WND.
All because of their decision to follow the biblical standard for marriage being between one man and one woman, and not the alternative sexual lifestyles that have come to dominate in the media.
In the U.S., the Supreme Court recently issued a ruling that should settle the dispute, by demolishing a move by the city of Philadelphia to “cancel” Christian foster care agencies that did not violate their biblical standards and refer children to unmarried or same-sex couples.
Those agencies’ standards are protected by the First Amendment, the ruling said.
The Christian Institute in Britain explained in a report this week that the fight there continues.
Its high court already has ruled that the nation’s only evangelical Christian fostering and adoption agency is allowed to recruit only those who share its Christian faith.
But the court also said the agency, Cornerstone Adopting and Fostering Service (North East), cannot require its carers to follow Christian standards.
Build your own med-kit by filling it with various Med Packs of your choosing. You know what you need.
Those arguments continue in the battle in which the Christian Institute is representing the agency.
Aidan O’Neill QC recently described the court ruling as “incoherent” because there is an “intimate link between evangelical identity and an acknowledgement that sexual intimacy is to be enjoyed exclusively within a marriage between two persons of the opposite sex.”
“He said that if it is accepted that Cornerstone may restrict its services to those with an evangelical Christian faith, ‘it is not then for the court to tell them what that faith really is and ‘if you only understood your own faith better, you would be welcoming gay people as carers’,'” the institute reported.
“If you accept that the religion and belief requirements are justified and lawful, that is the end of the matter,” he said.
He explained the previous ruling attempts the impossible, suggesting evangelicals can affirm the Bible while practicing homosexuality.
“You cannot be an evangelical Christian whose lifestyle is one which endorses same-sex activities,” he charged. “We say if we were forced to adopt those who claim they subscribe to evangelical beliefs but do not conduct their lives in accordance with traditional biblical morality, then that would be undermining of those who have signed up to Cornerstone for its Christian evangelical ethos.”
He said there are other, non-Christian, agencies through which same-sex couples can work if they choose to participate in fostering.
Cornerstone’s appeal is challenging the part of the ruling that forbids a requirement that its carers follow the biblical standard on marriage.

In the United States, the Supreme Court recently issued a stunning unanimous ruling that because of the First Amendment, the city of Philadelphia is not allowed to require Christian agencies to violate their faith in order to help with the needs of foster children in the city.
“The Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment, applicable to the states under the Fourteenth Amendment, provides that ‘Congress shall make no law … prohibiting the free exercise’ of religion,” wrote Chief Justice John Roberts in a dispute that attracted multiple opinions – all ending with the same result.
“As an initial matter, it is plain that the city’s actions have burdened (Catholic Social Services’) religious exercise by putting it to the choice of curtailing its mission or approving relationships inconsistent with its beliefs.”
He said, “Government fails to act neutrally when it proceeds in a manner intolerant of religious beliefs or restricts practices because of their religious nature.”
The agency in the case, Catholic Social Services, had worked with the city for decades, providing homes for thousands of children, until a few years ago when city officials abruptly insisted the agency offer services to same-sex and other duos.
New Conservative Network Seeks Crowdfunding Help
They say we have to go big or go home. We’re trying to go big and bring the patriotic truth the the nation, but we need help.
Readers may or may not realize that over the past year, we’ve been bringing more conservative news and opinion outlets under our wing. Don’t take our expansion as a sign of riches; all of the “acquisitions” have been through sweat and promises of greater things to come for all involved. As a result, we’ve been able to bring together several independent media sites under a unified vision of preventing America from succumbing to the progressive, “woke,” Neo-Marxist ideologies that are spreading like wildfire across America.
The slow and steady reopening of America is revealing there was a lot more economic hardship brought about from the Covd-19 lockdowns than most realize. While we continue to hope advertising dollars on the sites go up, it’s simply not enough to do things the right way. We are currently experiencing a gap between revenue and expenses that cannot be overcome by click-ads and MyPillow promos alone (promo code “NOQ” by the way).
To overcome our revenue gap and keep these sites running, our needs fluctuate between $3000-$7000 per month. In other words, we’re in the red and hemorrhaging.
The best way you can help us grow and continue to bring the truth to the people is by donating. We appreciate everything, whether a dollar or $10,000. Anything brings us closer to a point of stability when we can hire writers, editors, and support staff to make the America First message louder. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well.
As the world spirals towards radical progressivism, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report and the other sites in the network going.
Thank you and God Bless,

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We just launched a GiveSendGo page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
