Rick- I would have thought you would not fall into this sort of either/or
reasoning given that it implicates the free market. There is a free market in
the provision of services, including charitable services, and if a religious
organization drops out, others will step in. To think that the children will
inevitably be hurt because CC follows its beliefs is to assume CC is the
only route. It may have been a good route (I don't know), but it is a huge
mistake to think it is the only one.

I think Marci and Doug are spot on. The state, as in Rust, says "this is our
program, take it or leave it." CC says, "okay, we'll leave it." CC loses a
part of its ministry, the state loses one of its best adoption-service
providers, and the kids stay in state custody longer (and, for some, perhaps
permanently, since CC was extra good at placing hard-to-place children).
