The judge never said that "an entire class of citizenry is unfit to raise children." His decision was based on what was in the best interest of the child. He did his job. Since it's impossible for a lesbian couple to create a child, it's safe to assume their biological children have fathers who are hopefully, involved in raising them. It's wrong to deprive this foster child of the opportunity to be raised in the optimum environment....an environment with a mother and a father.

That would be her mother and father's fault. If they aren't around, or willing. The so called "optimum environment" isn't possible. If it was the child wouldn't be in foster care.

All things being equal, it's best for a child to have a mother and a father.

She is in foster care, that ship has sailed.

Over 1,000 Mormon's just resigned from the LSD church in protest.

The Utah governor disagreed with the judge's decision, too. Look's like Gary's getting a spine.....

Thanks for this. I've never been particularly clear on how the beliefs of Mormons and the heads of the Mormon Church line up.
