That means that adoption and foster care agencies could turn down same-sex couples, single mothers and inter-faith couples if an agency claims that approving such applications would violate its religious or moral convictions.

Oklahoma House approves controversial LGBTQ adoption bill



seems pretty unconstitutional

If those agencies are run by the federal or state government, then yes. Otherwise, I don't think it is. I don't agree with the ruling at all. But on the face of it, it doesn't seem unconstitutional.

I don't believe private entities are allowed to discriminate based on things like this still last I knew....

They're probably using that whole "companies can opt out of providing birth control" premise/nonsense as a template for this.

I considered that but this is a service/sales situation I think. Would you consider the film The Postman to be a successful PSYOP and USPS recruitment strategy?

Well I haven't seen that movie. However, since this is about the "sanctity of life" and religious values, that's probably the underlying basis for this law and birth control law.
