“Advocates of transgenderism can be as doctrinaire as religious zealots these days,” the judge wrote in his decision, along with misgendering the student as well.
The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) has uncovered new evidence of criminal activity by the head of the Cherkasy Diocese of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church - Moscow Patriarchate (UOC-MP), who continued to incite religious hatred publicly while under house arrest.
A federal court on Friday cleared the way for state officials in South Carolina to continue partnering with faith-based foster care agencies to place foster kids in new homes. In two separate lawsuits, the ACLU and Americans United for Separation of Church and State argued that agencies that discriminate based on religion should not have access to public funds. On Friday, a federal district court rejected that claim, noting that prospective foster parents who can’t or don’t want to work with faith-based agencies can access the same services through other, nonreligious agencies that take part in South Carolina’s foster care system.
The ruling stems from a pair of lawsuits brought by a same-sex couple and a Catholic woman who were told they could not foster children through a Christian-based agency.
