The U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) has filed an amicus brief with the Supreme Court in favor of a faith-based foster and adoption agency that lost its child placement relationship with the City of Philadelphia because of its protocol not to place children in the households of unmarried couples, which would include homosexuals.
The DoJ believes that the agency was “targeted” by the City and “singled out” for discrimination because of its faith-based policies.
“The City’s investigation … ‘singled out’ religious organizations for ‘discriminatory treatment,’” wrote Solicitor General Noel Francisco. “It did so, moreover, even though there was ample reason to believe that secular organizations were considering protected criteria listed in the Fair Practices Ordinance as well.” “That pattern of discriminatory enforcement violates ‘the First Amendment’s guarantee that our laws be applied in a manner that is neutral toward religion,’” he said, likewise stating elsewhere, “Philadelphia’s actions in this case burdened Catholic Social Services’ exercise of religion in a manner that the Free Exercise Clause prohibits.” As previously reported , the matter began in 2018 when the Philadelphia Department of Human Services (DHS) decided to suspend its partnership with Catholic Social Services (CSS) after learning via an article in the Philadelphia Inquirer that the agency does not place children in same-sex households.

THE ABHORRENT DEATH CULT POLICIES, IRRATIONAL HATRED FOR THE SANCTITY OF LIFE, AND ANTICHRIST RHETORIC ARE SYNONYMOUS WITH THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
Just when you think the Democratic Party’s bloodthirsty hatred for life would come to a halt because of the coronavirus, think again.
True to their Satanic nature the Democratic Party reminds American’s and the world just how sinister and evil they are. By doubling down on their gospel of death, during a time when the whole world is working hard to save lives, by issuing decrees that forbid Christians from worshiping Jesus Christ and making the killing of babies essential. It’s almost unfathomable but it’s true and there is no stopping this Democrat death train.
This overt and abject wickedness has propagated to every corner of the Democratic Party manifesting itself in delusional and obscene public policy. Death is the “Good News” preached by Democrats from coast to coast without apology. It is terribly unfortunate that Satan chose America’s Democratic party to be the emissaries of the coming beast-system but they have taken on the job with open arms and revel in it.
