Are you in Utah?

He can not adopt his own child to himself.

My response:

What, is this guy some sort of religious wacko or zealot ?

"Out of wedlock" has nothing to do with "family". Report this jerk to the State Labor Board.

Somethng is wrong with the employer's practices. If the employer provides health insurance coverage for family members, the fact that the child was born out of wedlock should not matter.
Contact your State Labor Dept.
