Probably a church thing. Many churches, in the southeast at least, push adoptions on young couples and sometimes even single men (in the case that the child is a male). This is often the case when they feel like the young child is a Christian and maybe in need, or perhaps when the men went on a mission trip or somesuch, to help a foreign orphanage.

It does get strange, but definitely not the first time I've seen this garbage. The preachers make a big deal of it, and speak highly of the men / couples that adopt these foreign kids and bring them here to the US. The preachers feel like this is the "lord's work" and really play it up.

While I understand that many here are Christians, and that's cool and all, but I've seen too much of the realities of preachers, their families and their impact to support anything around them. Some of the best people I've known are Christians, but preachers creep me out more often than not.
