Quote by: texasdave Here is one site from the UK. Study Says Broken Homes Harm Kids More: ASAP Family News Articles

Good job! Now only if that link said a damned thing about homosexual adoption AT ALL, then maybe it would be relevant to this conversation.

Quote by: texasdave I was trying to show how kids are better off with two parents, first. Next, I will show that having two moms or two dads does not equal one of each. I think I made my first point. But I will put up some more links just for the sake of consistency.

...still waiting Dave!

Quote by: Gambr1nus Homosexual Marriage doesn't make sense in any form. Marriage is a bond set forth by Christian and moral ancestors to show the spiritual bond between one man and one woman. Marriage has it's flaws in today's society because of things like divorce, and prenuptial agreements, and lawsuits for any of the like. If it were a correct society, there would be homosexuals, like there would be any flaw in the human form, i.e. theives, rapists, etc. We are given a choice as people to do what we want, and because of that Homosexuals will always be around, like that have been around many thousands of years before. I don't think anyone should encourage such behavior, because it produces no positive outcome for anyone. Yes, it may seem unfair to the bleeding hearts to not allow one person a special bond, when you allow another person a special bond...but in order to meet the requirements of a time tested institution, one must adhere to it's policies, not change them because it is a timely thing to do.

200 years ago, we thought blacks were animals. Yet a few people weren't as ignorant as the majority, and saw that blacks were human, and made some laws to give and protect their rights.

Sound familiar?

Quote by: Gambr1nus One person previously in the argument brought up Black People, and how they weren't treated evenly in previous times. I would say that this is a terrible example because Black people are a race, and someone can not chose to be a particular race, but your sexual preference is most defiantly a choice. If someone can be gay by proximity (prison) be gay for profit (porn actors) then it wouldn't make sense to me, that there is a formal cause for homosexuality and that people can be born "that way."

It's true. Gay people have different brain structures then a straight person of the same race.

There is a lot more proof of the genetic side of this argument, but I'm not even going to try explaining this to you, you probably either wouldn't understand, or would just ignore it...

One thing is for certain, I definitely didn't choose to be gay...why in the fuck would ANYONE choose to be gay?!

Quote by: Gambr1nus People need to get over the fact that somethings will always be different for people who are different. In the eyes of some people the world won't be right until we are all a brownish/grey color with both sex organs. That way everyone can be treated the same, because everyone is the same. I don't agree with homosexual marriage because it's not a love relationship in the sense that marriage was created by God. They will probably get their unions or whatever, for tax purposes, but what would you expect from the Romans?

Pfft...please, you've obviously never met a homosexual couple.

Quote by: Gambr1nus btw, in the state of Tennessee it is illegal for Homosexual couples to adopt children. We feel it isn't a good background for youth to be brought up in a confusing atmosphere.

...like half the heterosexual marriages AREN'T confusing?! There re valid scientific research studies that show that children of homosexual couples are just as level-headed as children of heterosexuals!!!

Quote by: Gambr1nus I know some will debate that it is confusing. But if you want to strip away all mentalities on the subject, removing ideas and thought, and religion, and go back to the primal instincts, it is our main concern to mate and reproduce our race. Homosexuals lack that key ability. And I know someone will bring up the point about how dogs are gay or something, or other animals have homosexual tendencies.... well forget that because in putting the mind back in our bodies, we have thought, and know right from wrong. That's why we have an understanding and know our destiny, or at least that from an early age we are meant to die.

Well, some people's definition of right and wrong is quite different from your backward 4,000 year old principles. And while I know you'll probably ignore most of this post instead of actually LEARNING something, it is a good idea to not be as close-minded as you are. Your type of closed-minded ignorance is driving many people away from religion.
