That's why I dislike the catholic church. They really love to hate things yet tell you that they are spreading love. Hypocrites. I say let them do what they want. It's a free country. [/b][/quote] I'M SO SICK OF THIS. I'm a hardcore Catholic and I don't hate gays, so shut up. I was in the best Catholic school in my city (my dad working his ass off for it) and I was taught tolerance, which may not be acceptance, but still is not hate. They taught me that it is wrong, because you are not obeying your gender, which I think and know you will find offensive. But they taught me that they must not be hated, because they are people too. They never taught me to hate anyone. So stop saying wrong sht.
i oppose. shouldn't a child feel the love of his/her mom and his/her dad? not a dad and a dad or a mom and a mom.

If you must know where I stand, PM me).
What, so a man isn't capable of giving a child the type of love a mother could? That's the biggest crock of shit I've heard on this board in awhile.
What if his/her real mother and father DON'T want him? Wouldn't the child be better of with two men or two women who DO want a child?

[/b][/quote] Why can't a man give the child the same amount of love that a woman can give to a child? I don't see any reason that a man can't give the same amount of love to a child that a mother would. As for the mental trauma, don't you think that the child would go through more mental trauma being with parents that don't want him or being with no caretakers at all?

[/b][/quote] The chances of a kid raised in a household with homosexuals growing up to be homophobic are slim to none. Gay men (and straight men) are just as capable of loving a child like a mother, Un4giver. You're treating them like animals.
what if the child doesn't want to go with a gay couple? And Casey, I don't think a man gives the same love for a child as a woman does. [/b][/quote] What if the child did/didn't want to go to a single parent? Would the situation be any different? Also, if a man doesn't give the "same love" to a child that a women does, should we take children away from men who's wives have died/left them? And as someone with a loving dad and loving uncles, I can't decide if what you said that offends me or not...
what if the child doesn't want to go with a gay couple? [/b][/quote] The child really doesn't have a say in a matter like this. I'm ignoring the other comment, since it's just plain stupid in my opinion.

[/b][/quote] PLus the fact that the child is at a very young age when adopted (usually) and has no concept of what homosexuality is. That's a ridiculous argument, Un4giver.
but you don't realise the mental trauma the child has to go through and what if he/she is not willing to stay? [/b][/quote] Tell me, what kind of mental trauma can it impose on a child?
NO they shouldn't , they should be allowed to mary , but the kind just misses a mam or dad , children who only have a mom or a dad ( the other died) are mostly totally different raced then normal . and the child gonna be teased by having 2 mums or 2 dads . when A girl is adopted by 2 gay men she just misses mother just like a son by 2 women it just doesn't work
^ Drunk, perhaps? You say that children should be able to feel the love of both a mother and a father? Well get this: I don't. My dad lives in France. My mum - ha it doesn't really matter. But yeah - your arguement is pretty flawed.
I am 100% for same sex people adopting kids and here are my reasons: - If a child is being abused while living at home with his mum and his dad and that the only couple willing to adopt him is homosexual, I'd rather have them adopt him than having his two parents continuing to abuse him. - I don't believe that childrens absolutely need the love of a mum and a dad; I know perfectly normal people who have grown withotu their mother or father. - It's hard for a heterosexual couple to adopt. They must meet psychologists, they must have referencial letters and/or people, they must pass psychological tests and lot of others thing to finally, maybe having the chance to adopt a kid. Imagine how hard it would be for same sex couples to adopt? It would be as hard for them if not more because they aren't heterosexual. So it would almost be impossible for them to be ''bad'' parents.
