Gay adoption as an option?

As a passionate pro-lifer, I've got to say that I support any kind of adoption. As long as the parents check out as a safe option for the child, I don't care who they are.

+1 Planned parenthood should subsidize adoption and and charge full rates for abortion. Gona play gotta pay sometimes.

Exactly .... If you're going to knock out the gay people, might as well eliminate other potential adopters that might pass along bad behavior and tell fat people, high maintenance people, whiners, hot heads and Florida fans they can't adopt either. All of which probably do more damage to what a child grows up to become than a gay couple.

Should my wife and I kick the bucket sometime soon, I'd rather my sons be raised by an icky homosexual than a Florida/Georgia/Alabama/Falcons fan.

I disagree about Falcons fans. They tend to have a lot of extra free time during the playoffs to be attentive to children.

While we are tossing out Saul's Epistles, I am also of mind to get rid of Luke. He says some far out stuff and his version of history is dead wrong.

Ill strongly disagree.............Luke sends messages that Paul is a spy.

I like Luke :)

I'm not far from where you are. And I'm Southern Baptist.

I was raised a Southern Baptist as well. As I grew older, it was obvious how backward my church was. Ran deacon elections as if they were running for municipal office. Always looking to obtain/improve church held property. Every sermon about titheing and giving more and more money to the church. That church was the laughingstock of the town for how many preachers they ran off. Bring one in, use him like a dishrag, throw him out like the trash. Make no mention of the prevalent condescension between the "haves" and "have nots".

I was just talking to my Pastor about this phenomenon last week. Having dealt with just about every denomination for business purposes, the Deacon led Baptist church that operates as a true democracy with all it's members voting on everything from the Pastor to the color of the new carpet is without a doubt the worst way to go about things organizationally. In the absence of an exceptional Pastor or Deacon that is an exceptional leader, what you end up with is effectively an Elk's Lodge that sings hymns on Sundays.

Awesome

Rep. Debra Maggart, R-Hendersonville, said homosexual couples should not be allowed to adopt children. She has also said: "We also have seen evidence that homosexual couples prey on young males and have, in some instances, adopted them in order to have unfretted access to subject them to a life of molestation and sexual abuse."

Here are my thoughts about gay adoption.

All things being equal (no drugs, no abuse, and no joblessness) a child is best served in a home with a dad and a mom, married and committed to their family.

Dad's and dad's or mom's and mom's are not the best option. Biology is the best argument I can make as proof of my position. Plugs and plugs don't create electricity, nor do sockets and sockets. Without scientific meddling, gay men and women simply cannot make children and therefore do not assist in the evolution (did I say evolution?) of our species. Therefore, and again I say, the dad-mom, married environment is best for children, whether they be born into a family or adopted in.

That said, if I was forced to choose between older children being bounced from foster home to foster home, and living in a stable home with two gay people, I think in that case, the gay home is the better option.

That is the only circumstance in which I could support gay adoption.

Here's my comment about all of this...

If any liberal is in favor of gay adoption and believes that a home with two gay men will be able to be a satisfactory envirnment for children to be raised, then the double standard that is present in regular custody battles where women get sole or majority of the custody of kids over men needs to end right now. There is no way any liberal can now argue that a child is much better in a single mother's custody than in a single father's custody.

Thinking the adoption issue should just be skipped and we move straight to allowing marriage of the children.

could they really do worse than people that are still allowed to reproduce naturally?

Stefanski was also charged with three counts of operating while intoxicated.

Fort Wayne police said a U.S. Marshal stopped Stefanski's vehicle in the 400 block of Poplar Street, after noticing the children ages - 4, 5, 6 and 7 - strapped to the hood of the car.

Witnesses told police the parents had left a liquor store before driving off.
