    In my opinion, yes. Why should homosexuals be stripped of their right to have children? They should have just as every right to have children as a "traditional" couple. So long as they are good parents, then why not? 

    I don't see why Catholic churches are trying to run the world, and tell everybody what is right or wrong. Their are different beliefs, different ways of living, and ultimately it's ever persons choice how they live their lives and what they do. Catholic churches should just step down and stop trying to run everybody's lives.

    I think they should be allowed to.  They are perfectly capable of offering the same amount of love and care that a heterosexual person would.  To be fair, sure, fine, make sure they understand the difference between heterosexual and homosexual so they can make their own decision about that, but neither should be enforced as "right" or "wrong".  To each their own.  We can't walk around and assume we know what's best for everybody ... similar to Beyond's post recently.  Who are any of us to assume we know what's best for anybody else but those who we are directly responsible for?  Even then sometimes we make poor choices!

    I'm not sure why they would, but it is legal....still.

    I am a firm believer in the tradional family -- a father, a mother, and children. If a homosexual has children (maybe they tried hetero and jumped ship), they, of course, have every right to raise their child. I do not think adoption by a homosexual is fair to the child, who has no say in the matter. I think homosexuality is a perversion that children should not be exposed to. That, of course, is another debate. Plus, a child molester could pose as a homosexual (claiming "that is why I am not married") just to gain access to a child or two. The children would not know what was going on for years. Can we take that chance? An adopting couple (man and woman) is risky enough. Even in those cases, children are put in really bad situations.

    I personally have known a lesbian who underwent in-vitro fertilization so she could have her baby.  She's a wonderful person and it's a shame that she's a lesbian 'cause she's also a good looker.
    I'm sure that homosexual parents would be no different in giving love to a growing baby than a heterosexual couple.... even though I still favor the traditional man and woman set of parents that God originally provided for us.

    I'm gay and proud of it. Well actually no, but JFK said he was a Berliner, since he ... well I don't exactly know why he called himself a Berliner, but I understand that a Berliner is a jelly donut in Germany, and the way he said it, he was calling himself a jelly donut, not a resident or citizen of Berlin.

    So, I have lied to you, and I have digressed. Lot of good that is. I am not gay but I have friends who are. I don't want some guy pawing me. Yucch. I don't know why girls like it. If I were a girl, I'd be a lesbian.

    What was the question again?

    Oh yeah, adoption. Sure, why not. Marriage, adoption, military, whatever, I don't really care, let them do whatever the hell they want.

  • bhalah said on Jun 14, 2009....
    Oh, Trav, wy you put me, in all of this, i was just thinking to of internet, but i just found again this and here iam, showing the people haw horible i amm...
     
    So was the point, if homosexuals?, adoption?, waw so deep to my sensitive hard...
     
    to be honest, gays, i can be a future potencial  homosexual, but not becouse i like girls, just becouse i get so frustrated whit boys, not becouse i love pussies, even if i love mine, but becouse i cant understand willys,  i actually thot in this idea, and my thot when in the point if i found a right girl, lovely and frendly, i would go for it in to the education of my baby, she will not see if i suck  a pussy, she will see a good relation frendly whit another girl, so what the wrong on that, the wrong for me is a relation ship well made by an histeric girl, and a frustrated man, who thot she will be the mum  steel mees,
     
    But, theres two things, or i found the right one, whatever it is, but a good person, tranquill, simple and clever, or i steel alone, tranquill simple and free.
     
    Is not my intention to subestimate man, is just my experience whit them, i know theres lovely ones, and i respect them, when they are whit them wifes....
     
    But to ended, if homosexual are two boys? mmm dont know, but if homosexual are two girls, think is easier, dont really have the experience, never see eny cuple homosexual having a child,  at the end the childs are not our property, they are future citizens, and the best envairoment for them is the right for them, eny ones, yes, but in razonable, adult, way, if you just want to fuck all day, just enjoy you and your partener, and weit till your oven get could.. And by the way, again religion hade a position to tell what is right or not, and dont see where the worl are runing over...politics stuff to remove, bha. Sorry God, is not to you i talking to...
  • destinydiva said on Jun 14, 2009....
     there is a girl in my daughters class at school who has two mums.
    they are very open about it and the best and nicest parents you will ever meet! the little girl is no better or worse off than any other child...  so my answer to your question... yes!!!

    Plus, a child molester could pose as a homosexual (claiming "that is why I am not married") just to gain access to a child or two. The children would not know what was going on for years. Can we take that chance?

    Yes.  We can take that risk.  Particularly since you know, a child molester has to submit to a background check (I knwo for a fact because I PERFORM THEM) before adopting.  If they've never been caught obviously a a check won't show anything but since the vast majority of rapes and molestations are due to close family anyway I doubt the risk is higher.

    Hell just based on the number of people like you in the world who would abandon their own children or siblings if they pursued a homo life of perversion added with the fact that depending on the age of adoption children lose their ability to trust adopted kids are probably safer across the board than traditionally raised ones.  Not that that really matters.

  • Cussane said on Jun 14, 2009....
    Sure, why the fuck not, we have enough hetro couples who have abused kids so the whole "perversion agruement" doesn't hold water, i am sure there will be good hetro parents and bad gay parents, that is society unless you can give me some rock solid proof that there is a negaitive outcome based soley on sexuality on the kids who are adopted i say go ahead.

  • JusticeForAll said on Jun 14, 2009....

    I'm a firm believer in adoption in general. There are far too many children out there without families for someone to say that someone who is perfectly qualified (financially sound and stable) who has plenty of love to give should be denied the right to adopt because they are homosexual. My mother is a lesbian. I turned out just fine. I had a normal childhood. My father was around (for the most part) and I had two moms.

    Why punish a child who doesn't care who adopts them as long as they are loved and cared for appropriately just because YOU may not believe in homosexuality?

    Live and let live. As long as they pass the standard any heterosexual person or family is required to pass, they should be able to adopt. Period.

  • MsStar39 said on Jun 14, 2009....
    I am sure not all gays are bad, but i say no because of a homosexual that i knew some years ago molested two of the young boys that he so lovingly took into raise when their mother who was his sister became ill.


  • diabolicdame said on Jun 14, 2009....
    Yes.
  • ABOVE_TOP_SECRET said on Jun 14, 2009....
    We must say yes.
  • Cussane said on Jun 14, 2009....
    So using Ms star logic, seeing as priests, ministers, cops, white males, white females should all be banned from adopting kids, as in the last couple of years someone that is in this group have been convicted of molesting a child. using a demographic to exclude any group is so narrow minded and petty that it does not even rise to the level of intelligent debate.

    Be honest about why they would want to adopt in the first place!

  • SeanRenaud said on Jun 14, 2009....
    Basically ditto the other comment Ms. Star.  Even though we all know the truth is those teenage boys hit the lottery should we ban attractive white women from teaching?  Seems like once a year they rape one or more of their students.
  • copsunite said on Jun 14, 2009....

    fuck... no way  homos should be able to adopt anything.

    look in public bathrooms. they are sick creatures ready for the arrest.

    This would be like playing poker in a casino.
  • shadowshide said on Jun 14, 2009....
    If homosexuals are allowed to adopt children, this would leave less children for the catholic priests to molest. That is why the catholic church is against it. fuck the catholic church. They have done so much damage thay cannot be arbiters of morals.
  • MsStar39 said on Jun 14, 2009....
    I do not think that all homosexuals molest children, but if this situation was not very close to me I might feel differently, but the man that molested the two boys I later found out was himself molested as a child so the cycle continues in some cases.
  • fugazi said on Jun 14, 2009....

    Being that I'm new here I should hold back on my opinion for a day. Lots of opinions aren't being given. Are they all simply self interested?

    The only things I hate more than Catholics are Homosexuals....Having said that, I do not believe either one is any more fit to raise children than the other.

    But sure, whatever.  Let the homosexuals experience the miracles of 2am feedings, the terrible two's, teenagedom, and child support payments if that is what they want.  I only wish that medical science had advanced enough by now that homosexual men were capable of giving birth to their children, too.....PUSH!!!   PUSH!!!

    My mind envisions the gay-baby-play-doh factory at work and I giggle to myself.

    Imagine how tall, long, and skinny those babies would be.......
  • VelvetRazor said on Jun 15, 2009....

    Decent people willing to raise childern are hard enough to find, I say yes. Give the kids a damn change.

    And selfishly save some tax dollars in the process. Adoption maybe?

    Besides, I can think of a lot worse types to be role models for childern than Catholics or Gays.

  • mixednuts said on Jun 15, 2009....

    Outside of the ALTs we have many stronge opinions.

    Some I agree with. The gays in America have the law on their side. The Catholic church is an evil force in my opinion. Look at what it has done throughout history. We should all ignore this pope iether way you may feel.

  • wolfafterurazz said on Jun 17, 2009....
    Two people of the same sex can not have childern. Don't you think there is a reason for this? Same sex relationships where not meant to be. So here we are again with a moral delima and how are we going to handle it? Lets further erode our moral standards, in 50 years we have made a 180 degree change, thats scary! I say yes after they have been cleared by some sort of agency or sompin. I mean after all this is not the norm. Man + Women = Childern........... simple math! There are so many childern who need good parents and if this is a way to get them good parents why not.
  • mixednuts said on Jun 17, 2009....

  • darkerthanlight said on Jun 17, 2009....
    I think that they should be allowed to raise children if they so desire.  If this is a free country as everyone claims it it, what business is it of anyone else whether a homosexual has children or not.  Let's define freedom with true freedom.

  • javadewd said on Jun 28, 2009....
    Homosexuals have been adopting kids for years! Are you talking about gay couples!?

    The Pope, according to the Westminster Confession of Faith, is not God on earth, but when has that stopped homosexuals from doing anything? They don't adopt Catholic teachings. That's like saying immoral people should follow the civil laws of their state... They simply don't.
  • mixednuts said on Jun 29, 2009....
    The subject has been confused . Gays are able, but should they?
  • javadewd said on Jun 29, 2009....
    To continue their lines would be a good "should" argument I guess... Humans have a sense of legacy.
  • chizad40 said on Jul 03, 2009....
    ABSOLUTELY! it makes me sad that this question even needs to be asked. why all of the discrimination? if a child is raised based on love, if a child is loved and taught how to be a good person, does it matter who the parents are? shouldn't the focus be on the kid rather than the parents? homosexuals have the ability to raise a child the same as any other person...... i say look at the child, not the parents, or at least look at the parents and judge them as parents, not their sexuality!! i am straight as an arrow, but i have several gay friends.... many of them are just as or more "ethical", "non-judgemental", "loving" people than half of the heterosexual people i know. why shouldn't they be granted the opportunity to have a child? like i said, why is this even a question?? it's ridiculous!! the answer is YES nothing else!!!

I'll be honest. I didn't see this coming. I didn't expect Obama to do anything directly supporting the gay community. I had assumed that it was just lip service...

Democrats make promises they cannot and will not keep ...
as usual.
