It is a fair point. No, of course I would not include blacks. Nor would I mind if gays adopted.

My concern is the fact that the state is mandating it. It is for the churches to choose their doctrine for themselves. As long as they do not accept state funds or assistance, they should be allowed to provide adoption services for their congregations.

But again, I feel the need to reiterate that the door swings the other way, too...I do not feel comfortable with the Church trying to legislate its doctrine upon others.
