    :confused: Right, now that makes perfect sense. But I guess for bigotted, ignorant people only. What the fuck is the logic behind this? Oh wait, I know, there is no logic, because it's irrational, reactionary bullshit!

    Just curious but what is the worst thing that could happen to someone raised by gay people, they turn out gay?, they go into fashion?

    What do you guys think is going to happen to them?

    They likely will not have any phobias about gay people. My guess is they will turn out like anyone else. I'm not sure I understand the question.

    My faith may actually be restored in Canada again. At least they are on the right path.

    The only reason I dont mind the current situation on marriage and adoption is because its their business. Let them do it, but they have to understand that the child will get beat in school and will be ashamed of his parents all his life. Besides what do they need a kid for? Choosing to be gay eliminates the option of bringing up a kid for a reason, if they want to reproduce they should of chose the correct route. If they want to take care of something, pets and animals are great options.

    Also this bidstrup.com/marriage.htm is completely useless as the 'gay' author trying to prove his points in verbal manner by any means he can find to make the case okay when the issue is beyond an verbal argument he can make up in a paragraph.

    So, maybe you should be pushing for tougher laws on prohibiting sex offenders in reproducing then?

    Arguing something should be allowed by bringing up that society already accepts other things that are wrong is not a very strong arguement

    Maybe you should drop that arguement and stick to the "People can do what they like in their personal life" spill.

    It is a much better arguement.

    I see you are being very intelligent and tolerant of other peoples beliefs as well. Good job. ;)

    Maybe your next response will include more insults at people you disagree with.

    btw: you may be interested in reading through this: Should gay marriage be allowed?

    You will be placing a child under this stress from the start...now that's really logical isn't it? As a parent wouldn't you want your child to live a life without worries and stress? Of course you want to! So then don't let children be raised by gays!

    It's bullshit to believe that this would not happen in todays society...the world is not a gay eutopia!

    It's irrational to think the world is a gay eutopia where it's going to be accepted to have gays as parents!

    If gays want to be married that is their business just like hetero sexual people but getting children involved in a gay upbringing environment is not acceptable.

    It's way more serious then people can imagine, and the supporting gays try to mask an obvious issue with unrelated fairness issues. Why would you even try to raise a child that will hate you in the future for it?

    Exactly! And the child hating the gay parents for it can be much sooner in life then you might expect.

    Uhh I don't know if you guys live in the south but where I live, people are a lot more understanding. I don't want to bring up the issue of race since a lot of the brown and arab people are against that sort of thing, but where you live has a lot to do with it.

    It's nobody else's business who your parents are. I don't think it would be that hard to keep it a secret... then again I wouldn't. If my parents were gay, hiding it would only carry on the current trend of hate.

    And weed will be legal in Canada sooner or later. They are working on it actually...

    So people should not be allowed to adopt because the kids will be made fun of at school?

    What about the stress of being raised in an orphange or as a ward of the state?

    Don't you think that would be a bit more "stressful"?

    w00 h00! We won! :) :) :)

    State-approved marriage -- homosexual or heterosexual -- is an affront to freedom.

    There, that puts me at odds with just about everyone. :p

    Adults can be understanding but Youth isn't going to be so understanding but i agree it has alot to do with the environment to get to be accepted.
    I really have a hard time believing such an environment exists no matter what nationality you have...it's a universal thing.

    Made fun of is kind of an understatement...terrorized is more the word you are looking for.
    To compare an orphange or ward of the state to growing up being terrorized because one would have gay parents is not applicable.

    Having gay parents as a child is in my oppinion an almost certainty that the child is going to be terrorized in his environment and the options you mentioned is not a certainty in my oppinion.

    I can really understand a kid growing up without parents in an orphange can be stressfull but it would be far less for the shit the kid would have to endure for the rest of his life untill he/she can come to the point to move to another environment where they don't know the background of him or her.

    Kids learn by seeing what adults do...what would a kid learn when daddy and daddy would stick their tongues in each others mouth or kissing and be all coochy coochy? Don't tell me that will not have any kind of psycological impact?

    That is my second reason i am against this.

    Are you kidding? you are comparing kids making fun of each other to growing up in state system with no parents?

    Do you have any idea how bad a comparison that is. Kids ridicule and terrorize each other, you never beat up the fat kid just because he looked differnent when you were little? Its just part of growing up,
