Florida's strict law banning adoption of children by gay people was found unconstitutional Tuesday by a state judge who declared there was no legal or scientific reason for sexual orientation alone to prohibit anyone from adopting. (Nov. 25)

So, Larry King is getting his 8th divorce, Elizabeth Taylor is possibly getting married for a 9th time, Jesse James and Tiger Woods are screwing EVERYTHING, yet the idea of same-sex marriage is what is going to destroy the institution of marriage?? REALLY??...

tbh there are so many children needing loving homes i'm straight but if i was a child in a care home i wouldn't care who adopted me aslong as it was a stable home that could care for me and give the attention i needed.. i think people just need to realise kids needs homes and you should be thankfull that adults are willing to look after kids that arn't thier own. just my 2 cent

I'm 17 years old, Gay and happy. when i am older i want to adopt a child with conditions that need extra care... you know.. the ones that are left in foster homes by the heterosexual couple.

@layhayla so straight people only raise straight kids

[GodCreatesGays2]

Layhayla, whether or not kids grow up to be gay is something only God can decide, for He is the one who creates some of His children to be homosexual, as part of His divine plan for them. As a "person" who hopefully cares about the welfare of any child in need, perhaps you could fight against your Satan-inspired prejudice and learn to love your fellow man, as Jesus would. Your attitude sickens the Lord.

@MrChristmas365 I agree apart from your idea of a gay religion. It think that's just silly, but I believe that child raising is something which you opt out of by choosing same sex relations. I wouldn't try to stop gay relationships but I think it's unfair to exploit children's circumstance to justify one's personal regrets in choosing to opt out of the natural family unit.

@layhayla

The sexual orientation of the parents is not something that is passed down to the kids. It's incredibly ignorant to think that kids raised by gay parents are more likely to be gay. (By the way, you don't become gay, you are born that way.)

@MrChristmas365

Is it more selfish to provide kids a home because you want to be a parent or to keep kids from having a place to live because you don't like their parents? You say kids need a mother and a father. Do you even know how many kids are raised in a single parent household? My parents got divorced because my dad abused us. I was raised by a single mother. I didn't have a father. Isn't that the same thing? I would imagine two moms are better than one...

Your arguments fail so hard.

[layhayla]

I do hope the kids don't become gay.. it's sad to see that these "men" can raise children.. I hope that they know it's WRONG and know Jesus.

@MrChristmas365 " They want to be able to do it to feel normal." and you dont want that because you want to deny them that to make them feel less "normal" just because they are diffrent than you.

and its not like gay/lesbians are stealing children from loving straight parents. its not a choice between two straight parents and two homosexual parents it is a choice between two homosexual parents and no parents.

[MrChristmas365]

I've been saying for years that gays should create their own religion and perhaps call it Gaytianity, and they can refer to themselves as Gaytians.

As for gays adopting children, a child should be raised by a mother and a father. A child needs that natural and healthy mental and emotional balance. How can two women or two men think for a child and know what's best for the child in those aspects? It's selfish. They want children for selfish reasons. They want to be able to do it to feel normal.

@OFFICIALDAVIDGUEVARA I find that such a load. It's human nature to judge. It's such a load of crap when people say "I don't judge" when they do it every fucking day.
