And obviously that is as scientifically ridiculous as the rest of the post.

This topic has nothing to do with religion. A gay couple may be just as qualified to raise a child as a straight couple, or more so. But to compare a heterosexual couple, “having” a child to the adoption process of a homosexual couple borderlines on the absurd.

I don’t know what statistics you’re referring to, but I would simply respond to that with skepticism, as inferential statistics was never designed a tool to find causal relationships, but serve as correlative evidence. Perhaps some variable exists outside their model that suggests why gay couples are “better” at raising children, and the fact that they are gay has nothing to do with it at all.

Sorry, but the statistics disagree with you.

Having said that, your point about adoption reminds me of my relationship with God. I think it’s cool that His desire is to adopt us into His family. It’s no accident or undesired result.

There are quite a few states that don’t allow gay/lesbians to adopt while thousands of children languish in the foster care system. Unfortunately, I know this from first hand experience.

I hope in time this will all change.

Hmmm.

Sorry to see you go Tony. It was a good run, while it lasted.

Chris is the gentleman that runs this blog.

And, I am afraid, that this will be the last discourse that I will hold with you.

Respectfully

You’re an idiot if you think these people didn’t already know that.

“If a gay couple were motivated to adopt a child because they want to thumb their noses at the religious group, would that be a good motivation for adopting?”

and you automatically assume that gay couples can’t be reigious as well? Besides, children as a sign of posterity is entirely an incredibly antiquated thought process. Doing it to try and assume a nominal part in a functioning society- which IS considered to be spite by the people who stand in thier way- see interracial marraiges circa 1960.

“We would all agree that desiring to have children because you want to enjoy the miracles that they are is foundational to being a good parent whether you are gay or straight. However, it doesn’t mean that once you become a parent that you will be a good one.”

So they aren’t even allowed to try based on the possibility that they might fail? So any person who is in any way disadvantaged to having children ought to never be allowed to procreate in your mind, either biologically or by adoption. Your conclusion is a complete non-sequiter and belies your homophobia and bigotry.

“Isn’t it funny that when its something we agree with that its the ‘right’ thing and everybody else is wrong and close-minded.”

Your right. Freedom ought to be alloted according to whether or not a person is a Anglo-European landholding male or not. Plus projection. Intolerating intolerance isn’t intolerance. It is justice. Thank you for never once reading Dr. King’s letter while he was in Burmingham Jail.

Besides, i Never saw anything that Morsec0de wrote that stated “desire is the foundation of good parenting” or extolling good intentions. “Careful consideration” and “planned for it” i did see, but you didn’t. Gee, i wonder if it’s becasue you came here with a different pre-formed opinion?

Who the hell is chris?
