Gay Adoption Measure Fails

@Nob: Well said, and that's yur opinion. However, it does correspond to war-time habits, but that's for another discussion... But honestly, I'd rather have A family of any kind than no family at all, and that's the basic thing that people ought to understand.

Whoa bro, better slow down bro, don't wanna be a bro, bro.

Both. It's natural to have homosexual thoughts on occasion, usually during adolescence, but some people just prefer homosexuality over heterosexuality.

Goodbye my only friend. Oh, did you think I meant you?

It starts out 50/50, in my opinion and observance, and depending on certain factors and influences, -ie; role models, literature, etc...- then finally, accepting whatever decision you come to.

@Ici: Furthermore, that's for Gay Marriage, unrelated [directly] to Gay Adoption, this Thread.

Whoa bro, better slow down bro, don't wanna be a bro, bro.

Heh. In class we're making a campaign about homophobia, because of a few students in class being bullied for who they are.

????

Please tell me it's about being against, right? And not a bad thing to do, I suppose...

Whoa bro, better slow down bro, don't wanna be a bro, bro.

There are over thousands of species that are bisexual/lesbian/homosexual. And only one species has a problem with this act.... -_-"

I WARNED YOU ABOUT STAIRS, BRO!

Humans hate change. Homosexuality is a big change in society. Other species don't have this judgmental aspect.@Syed

I personally hate change, but mostly personal change, change for the 'Greater Good', I can handle.

No worries, and exactly.

Whoa bro, better slow down bro, don't wanna be a bro, bro.

Change? Homosexuality is no change it's a normal act since life ever existed.

Well, I don't like change that personally affects me generally, but I'm fine with this, even though like syed said, it isn't really that much of a "change"

I WARNED YOU ABOUT STAIRS, BRO!

The only change is ignorring said religious sayings. :D

@Syed: THAT'S the change we're referencing, Society's going through a small, yet blown out of proportion 'change' in what's deemed acceptable or not...

Whoa bro, better slow down bro, don't wanna be a bro, bro.

Uh..I agree with Shadowtech....it would be rather weird for the kid, even though like The Ram said it would get love and a safe home, I just think it would be weird for the kid.

Finnaly, I'm on a winning streak! 1 person agrees with me! A new record! dB

I put the fun in dysfunctional.

There is no winning in debates. Just understandings.

But if the kid was adopted at a young age, it probably wouldn't realise it and thinks its parents were like anyone elses parents, then what if the kid started school? and found out the truth?, it could lead to endless bullying.

Eventually the young child would adapt to homosexualtiy-then they would think homosexuality is the right way to go (following their parents). When they lead into the real world, they're in for a big surprise, let's just leave it at that. -_-"

I put the fun in dysfunctional.

Straight kids get bullied as well, you know.

And ShaDowTecH, your argument makes no sense whatsoever because straight parents raise gay children all the time. Also, I'm sure the parents would be intelligent enough to explain how the real world works to a child.

Your friendly neighborhood [112]hole is here!

Although Hetero Parents tend to either bas the Homosexuality out of their children, or merely ignore them until they're deprived of attention.

"Weird for the child", and "Growing up to think it's the 'right' way" are both bigoted arguments. Why? Because, 'weird' means that you automatically assume the kid is geared to only find heterosexuality 'normal' and 'right', and homosexuality 'strange' and 'wrong'. It all depends on how you're raised, and what you decide. Not the Church, not the Government, not whatever Propaganda you're reading, what you personally decide.

@Shadow: The 'real world'? Really? You're an absolute moron for thinking that the 'real world' consists only of heterosexuals. If that's so, then why are these 'real worldly' politicians and religious institutions fretting over such a 'fake' topic? That may have been the stupidest thing you've said, but I'm sure you'll top it next post. -.-

Whoa bro, better slow down bro, don't wanna be a bro, bro.
