Demonstrating that the UK has accelerated its gradual slide away from biblical truth into a parachuteless cliff-edge plummet, was the news that a Christian couple have been denied the right to adopt the children they were fostering due to their views on same sex parenting, it was reported on 6 November.

The couple had always wanted to adopt the children and wrote to the council to appeal against the decision to block them adopting due to ‘some opinions and views’ they had expressed.

They said they believe that a child needs a mother and a father, and that this is not a homophobic view, but a biblical one.
