i believe the family unit of a man and woman is the best place for children to be brought up, i really hate it when i read in the press that gay male couples and lesbian couples adopt children.

a child deserves to be brought up properly in a proper family unit, it is a a big disadvantage growing up in a gay family household. It will from an early age be brainwashed into believing what it sees is normal behaviour, this will no doubt affect the child on growing up and developing its own sexuality.

now i am not anti-gay/lesbian, i believe people have the right to choose what sexual orientation they are, but i do believe that if choosing the gay lifestyle, you therefore give up your right to be parents, anyone agree/disagree

I disagree. Why should they have their rights taken from them because of their sexuality? How does it affect the child in a negative way? How is having homosexual parents a disadvantage? Please answer these.

i wouldnt want children anyway however it is everyones right to have a child. noone goes around saying that the teenagers pushing prams are bad parents, so why should homosexual couples be denied a right based on orientation?

if someone said to you one day that you were not allowed children because you are straight(never gonna happen but go with me here) how would you feel? would you feel as tho your civil liberties had been enfringed?

i think that its actually better for a child to have homosexual parents. Not that its natural, which it obviously isnt, but i belie that it would bring them up to be much more understanding, open and (quite steriotypicly) caring as an individual, then having heterosexual parents. I dont think that having gay or lesbian parents will encourage you to be gay. To me, that sounds absurd.

Is it not human rights to have a child? Regardless of your sexual orientation?

if your parents influenced ur sexuality then surrly there would never have been homosexuals in the first place. so to say that gay parents will produce gay children is absurd to say the least.

im not american but its funny anyways

yes, and notice they havnt responded to a single post on there own thread...

yeah, they'll never post again.

by being gay/lesbian, nature dictates that you cannot produce children, by adopting such an un-natural lifestyle you therefore opt out of the right to have children.

i am against gay adoption, and against gay marriage, but do not oppose the individual for making the choice to be gay.

as a christian i cannot understand why society has accepted such a gross concept, but then again thirty years of politically correct/liberal brain washing of the masses may have a lot to do with it.

damn liberals!
waa

anyhoo, alot of people would take issue with the assertion that its a 'choice', you can't choose who you're attracted too.

they can't have children themselves obviously but they can certainly provide loving enviroments that children need.
