My husband and I started the adoption process over a decade ago. At the time, in our particular neck of the woods, there were only religious adoption agencies available.
We were denied because we were (and still are) atheists. This was within the rights of the agencies to refuse us a strong “relationship “ with god was considered an important aspect of parenting.
The utter gall of these people to call themselves oppressed is mind boggling to me.
I don't know how far you have gone in investigating adoption and fostering, but it would be worthwhile you reading this post from Glinner's substack about a year ago, which recounts another woman's experience with how gender critical views can be an obstacle to proceeding.
