But why is that relevant when I'm distributing my money? Heck, I can be totally discriminatory when I allocate how I wish my funds to be passed on. What if I just didn't like one of my kids for no rational reason? Maybe I hate their spouse. That's not a rational reason, and can be totally viewed as discriminatory. But it's still my right to pass on my wealth however I want it to.
Just seems off that the court can just overturn wills based on moral standing.
