A Christian adoption agency is refusing to allow or help a Jewish couple to gain a foster child because of their religion.

When are Christians going to stand up to their own fellow Christians and point out that when they are this blatantly hypocritical it makes them all look bad?

If you want me to write this specific adoption agency, I have no problem with that.

When are fellow Christians going to stand up to behaviors like this and point out that it's simply morally wrong?

I wonder how many have? Knowing how many sects of Christianity there are that don't agree on things as important as what the Bible means, I would be surprised that if over 100 different Christians know about this, none of them have called it out.

Why do Christians allow this kind of behavior within their own ranks, and how come we so rarely hear or see any meaningful push back from Christians toward other Christians or groups that are behaving in ways that most Christians would claim were immoral if it was anyone other than another Christian doing it?

This kind of behaviour would not be allowed within the ranks of my Dad's church, and I think that most of the members of my church would say it was wrong.

When you say "Christians", do you mean Roman Catholics, Baptists, Mormons... or only the specific church that this adoption agency is associated with, if any?

Also, isn't this as immoral for every adoption agency or even every agency, or even every business? All of those should step up and condemn this.

Personally as an adopted person, I agree that this is wrong if the truth is as described.

"Their lawsuit comes two years after Tennessee's Republican governor, Bill Lee, signed a bill giving legal protection to taxpayer-funded foster care and adoption agencies that deny services based on religion or sexual orientation. The lawsuit argues this law violates the Tennessee Constitution's religious-freedom and equal-protection guarantees."

...well there's your problem.
