I question these so-called guidelines that somehow force same-sex adoptions. Now, understand, I am very ignorant on the topic of adoption law. I was always under the impression that adoption agencies had the descetion to decide who was a fit couple to adopt. I also don’t understand the abortion thing. Are they forced by state law to offer abortions?

To answer the poll question, my first reaction is I support state’s rights, even in regard to churches. Of course, common sense and courtesy would look at what churches believe and how they operate, and legislate accordingly.

None of this has any business one way or another on the federal level.
