We've seen what happens in Massachusetts, where Catholic Charities Adoption Agency after passage of same-sex marriage is told that it's discriminating because it can only adopt children of same-sex couples according to its religious beliefs. The state comes in and says "Now, because of same-sex marriage, that is discrimination, you can no longer adopt children at all."Here we see Brown cynically pandering to the phony Christers-Are-Victims mantra by falsely stating (in link, skip to Reality: Catholic Charities Chose To Stop Receiving Public Funding For Adoption Services) that Catholic Charities in Massachusetts was forced by the government to close its adoption agency when in fact it decided to do so after the state told the agency it could no longer violate law by discriminating against otherwise qualified gay couples with taxpayers' dollars. And this had nothing to do with gay marriage laws, but public accommodation laws covering gay people.
The Mormon Church continues to run its adoption agency in the Bay State, choosing to forgo tax subsidies in order to continue to discriminate against same sex couples, a fact which which irrefutably busts Brown's shameless and stubborn fabrication.
