Interesting observation — the contrast really highlights how differently the US and UK approach the intersection of religion, public funding, and LGBTQ+ rights.
In the UK case, the concern centers on protecting a child from being shamed or told they're inherently “wrong.” In the US stories, the issue flips: LGBTQ+ adults are the ones being excluded by agencies that receive public money. Same broad topic, but opposite directions of discrimination.
It’s a reminder that “religious freedom” and “equal rights” can collide depending on who’s being protected and who’s being denied. And when public funding is involved, the stakes become even more complicated.
Definitely worth thinking about how systems can support vulnerable kids without elevating one group’s beliefs above another’s basic dignity. - https://www.elpasotxautoglass.com
