Couple Wanted to Adopt Three Sisters. Minnesota Said No Because They’re Christians
Life News ^ | May 9, 2025 | Daily Caller

The institutions created to protect and build better lives for American children who have suffered abuse and neglect have made it much harder for religious families to adopt. In fact, the state nearly thwarted one Christian foster family’s sacrifice to build a better life for innocent kids, all because their beliefs did not align with radical gender ideology.

In a new docuseries available now, Separated: When The State Takes Your Kids, the Daily Caller Original Series highlights the stories of three families who paid an awful price for refusing to participate in left-wing gender madness. The third and final episode follows Nancy Harmon, a devout Christian from St. Peter, Minnesota, who barely escaped the transgender insanity of state officials as she attempted to adopt three sisters.

“Separated” is available exclusively for Patriots subscribers. Watch the trailer below.

Nancy and her husband, Jay, had fostered three sisters, all of whom suffered abuse at the hands of their biological parents, for two years. The couple made the selfless sacrifice to adopt the girls, however government officials said they were not “the right fit” because of their Christian faith.

Why? The oldest sister claimed that she was “non-binary.”

Thankfully, a private therapist sent a letter arguing that Harmon’s adoption was in the best interest of the sisters. The left-wing state officials eventually backed down, and the adoption went through, but not without leaving lasting scars on a good and decent family that was only trying to do the right thing.

The Harmons’ story was a tragedy that could have been much worse. Unfortunately, other families are not so lucky. Though it worked out for one family, other Christians attempting to adopt face staggeringly unjust obstacles because they believe that there are only two genders, male and female.

The Daily Caller’s documentary productions are made possible by our faithful Patriots members, and we wouldn’t be able to do it without them. To watch “Separated” and to help support future investigative documentaries, please consider subscribing.

Nuts. The most important thing is to find them a loving home, and a very very close second is to keep the sisters together. The state is incredibly lucky to have found a family that can do both. The rest is just noise.

We cannot coexist with people afflicted with this level of insanity, and who are so insane they are relentlessly driven to stamp out every vestige of normal, sane, moral society. They’re certainly trying to silence, marginalize, and even eliminate US; we had better get real about the need to eliminate their ability to influence society before they succeed.

There is no middle ground here. This is a literal battle between good and evil, and good had better prevail. There are no easy or pretty ways out of this craziness.

I think Hungary has been strongly against wokeism and alphabet sex mafia from the outset.

These are Jesus' Words - of course He also said "Buy a sword"
(IMHO, that's for self-defense purposes)

Whoever pushes this gender nonsense should be beaten senseless. Whoever started it should be flogged mercilessly.

Bottom line: If you want to give up a baby for adoption, do it PRIVATELY, and if you want to adopt, again do it privately. The state workers in this area are highly organized and have NO INTENTION of respecting Christian values.
