Of course not. You can't be a Christian unless you own a copy of The Prayer of Jabez or have been personally healed by Benny Hinn.

I find this very odd. That being said, I can tell you as an adoptive parent that different agencies have different criteria for adoptive parents - and some of them are downright strange.
We adopted from Korea, and one of the criterium was that my wife and I could not be more than 20% above normal weight! This comes directly from the Korean government.

Most agencies/countries won't let you adopt if you're too old. (35 is usually the cutoff).

I do recall a religious test for one agency - and I think (don't quote me on this) it was Catholic Charities. I believe they only accepted Catholic prospective parents. But please don't take this as gospel, it's been many years. I'll look it up and post it, if I can find it.

Not all of them, just like people in the protestant faiths aren't all Christians. It's a matter of what we do with Jesus. Is He in our hearts or not? Many Catholics ARE Christians for sure, I'm not saying they aren't, but many just go to church, like a lot of protestants.

No, not all of them anyways. At least not in the way that I would define a Christian
