This from the villains who “abort” full term babies and encourage the sexual mutilation of children.
The Oregon Department of Human Services has ruled that prospective adopting parents must “respect, accept and support the race, spiritual beliefs, sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression, disabilities, national origin, cultural identities, immigration status and socioeconomic status of a child or young adult in the care or custody of the Department.”
Wow. Oregon just denied a woman from being able to adopt…because she’s Christian.
They’re worried she wouldn’t be willing to accept and sexually mutilate the child if they wanted to be “trans” in the future.

Oregon Bans Christians From Adopting Children
By: Todd Starnes, April 7, 2023:
The state of Oregon refused to let a Christian mother of five adopt a child because of her religious beliefs, according to a federal lawsuit filed by Alliance Defending Freedom.

Jessica Bates began the process of applying to become certified to adopt a child from Oregon’s foster care system one year ago.
The Oregon Department of Human Services, the agency responsible for the delivery and administration of the state’s child welfare programs, denied her application because individuals seeking to adopt must agree to “respect, accept, and support … the sexual orientation, gender identity, [and] gender expression” of any child the department could place in an applicant’s home, and Bates could not agree to this because of her faith.
“Oregon’s policy amounts to an ideological litmus test: people who hold secular or ‘progressive’ views on sexual orientation and gender identity are eligible to participate in child welfare programs, while people of faith with religiously informed views are disqualified because they don’t agree with the state’s orthodoxy,” said ADF Senior Counsel Jonathan Scruggs. “The government can’t exclude certain communities of faith from foster care and adoption services because the state doesn’t like their particular religious beliefs.”
Bates alerted ODHS that she will happily love and accept any child, but she could not say or do something that goes against her Christian faith.
ODHS’s policy, however, excludes her and others who hold traditional religious beliefs about human nature and sexuality by requiring parents to use a child’s preferred pronouns, take a child to affirming events like Pride parades, or facilitate a child’s access to dangerous pharmaceutical interventions like puberty blockers and hormone shots if the child so requests.
“Oregon’s policy makes a sweeping claim that all persons who hold certain religious beliefs—beliefs held by millions of Americans from diverse religious faiths—are categorically unfit to care for children,” said ADF Legal Counsel Johannes Widmalm-Delphonse. “That’s simply not true. Oregon is putting its political agenda above the needs of countless children who would be happy to grow up in a loving, Christian home like Jessica’s. We urge the court to remind the state of its constitutional and moral obligations and reaffirm Jessica’s First Amendment right to live out her faith without being penalized by the government.”

ONE of the objectives is to create the idea that this is a religious war. You could call it that, but that tends to make a lot of people ignore what is really happening.
In case you didn’t notice, they have been using the church to help them ruin us. The church helps with invasion across our borders. The church helps import Muslims, a mortal enemy to us all. I am very careful with my words when I say “the church”, so don’t get all bent our of shape and call me anti-Christian and hate me, as they would love for you to do.
The greater war is a war against FREEDOM and FREE PEOPLE CONTROLLING GOVERNMENT. You could say it’s a war against free will. Freedom is the idea that all ruling families despise. The success of the USA is an example that threatens all the ruling families across the pond, and even on this earth. Our first enemy was an empire ruled by a royal family. They didn’t love us and embrace freedom after they had to sail their warships back across the Atlantic. They created a coalition against us because a prosperous, peaceful, sovereign, safe, industrially independent, energy independent USA with a government controlled by free people threatens them all. They changed their image over there, and changed our image over here. The LGBTQ thing is both a poison from within and a big ugly distraction.
We would not conquer them the way they have always conquered, our example would give rise to revolution on their own soil.
They have used us to help them conquer by simply calling it defense of freedom. We obviously haven’t been defending freedom or our Republic. We are being conquered by an evil empire that is a family of ruling families. They set their enemies against each other, and we are one of their worst enemies. Ever wonder what the endless wars are really about?

If anybody should be banned from ever adopting children, it is the “LGBTQ community.” There was an infamous case of a gay couple in an Atlanta suburb who adopted two young boys – then sexually abused them to the max and pimped them to child porn and child sex trafficking rings. They were finally brought to justice, but only after a large hue and cry. The leftist media, of course, never covered this story. In a way, though, they did cover it – up.

Staff Sgt – First God should punish them for their vile actions against these children and decent Christian trying to give orphans a home. Remember what Jesus said about people who lead astray children? “Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea.” I’m okay with these rotten bastards being drowned in the sea! In my opinion this is what should happen to these authorities in Oregon.
And this what should happen to Muslims who in Western countries like the UK groom and then rape young non-Muslim girls while British police ignore what is going on under their cowardly noses

The progressive, commie, demoncraps, have been attacking the Christians for a long time and will do anything to prevent the spread of Christianity.

The “trans” supremacists have ZERO respect for the privacy rights, dignity, boundaries, sovereignty, realm, sensibilities, personal space and safety of women. So why should anyone “respect” these freaks? Proof if there were any that the whole “trans rights” racket is zero-sum in every which way.
And another example of a state that considers anti-women, anti-children, anti-family, anti-morality, anti-biology, anti-humanity, pro-pervert, pro-sodomite, morally inverted, Bizarro World-style, bathhouse-derived, radical fringe Greenwich Village/San Francisco/Fire Island/Key West “values” to supersede traditional Biblical-derived Judeo-Christian values; and whenever Judeo-Christian values conflict with Greenwich Village/San Francisco/Fire Island/Key West “values,” it is Judeo-Christian values that must give way. A state that abides by artificial, perverted, twisted, sick “values” that, in their 100% reliance on fascistic coercion to carry out their tenets, is wholly indistinguishable from radical Islam and Shariah law.
It is things like this that call for a STOP THE TRANSGENDERIZATION OF AMERICA and target states like Oregon that are blatantly and explicitly anti-family and anti-morality in this way, and equally blatant enablers of the moral rot that is destroying this country from within.

Islam and Muslim are NOT A RACE, so to talk about ‘race’ when discussing or condemning disgusting Muslim actions is just downright ignorant and stupid. ‘Racism’ has become an all all to easy label when wanting to vilify and discredit someone with whose views one disagrees.

Homosexuality and transgenderism are also not a race. Yet pro-supremacist thugs forcing their perverted agenda down everyone’s throats likewise scream “racism” any time anyone stands up to them.

I havea feeling that the day is soon approaching when this entire mob of pedophiles will be annihilated for good. A great anger is rising and wil soon ignite a flame that cannot be put out except by their blood.

This is not a conventional religious war, Marxism is a doctrine which deifies the state. Marxism aims to destroy all other sources of authority such as the family and the church.
Here the State is doing nothing else but wanting to take control of the children, Christianity would get in the way of that and in the way of Marxism in general, Marxism is also a religion where the State is the god of that religion.
“There is no god and Marx is his prophet”, a joke but true paraphrasing the shahada
There is a new breed of Marxists out there going around telling us that “you will have nothing and you will be happy”, Marxism will raise its infernal head and will give us another genocide by starvation as it does always. It already speaks of eating bugs and killing the cattle, prepare for the traditional Marxist genocide by starvation.

I am totally sick to my heart about this anti-religious attack on Christians, Jews, Catholics, and any other religion that asks for a member’s devout belief. This is a direct attack on the First Amendment to The US Constitution !!!

What is going on is, they are making it so that the only ones who will be allowed to adopt children in that state would be same-sex couples, whether gay or lesbian, thus placing the children in grave danger for more sexual abuse or being turned gay or “trans.” This is a DIRECT consequence of LGBTQ’s having “carte blanche” control over social service agencies that oversee adoption services.

I had to read that title twice, to make sure I read it right! And then I asked myself, “Wait, the whole state”???
I just can’t believe this country keeps on getting worse than the horrors from the day before! And then you think, it can’t get worse than this…..the next day throws us something else to be shocked totally about!!

Homosexual adoption is child abuse. That means State Health Department employees and people like Elton John should be in prison.
