    Thank you for that thoughtful and sensitive contribution to an important subject that effect the lives of hundreds of thousands of people - REAL PROPLE who have REAL lives including families and children-but have a different sexual orientation. REAL PEOPLE who suffer the effects of discrimination and vilification because of who they love. REAL PARENTS of children are the collateral damage of bigotry who their parents can't marry and when the second parent can't adopt. Thank you!

    Do you have anything that is not from a rabidly anti gay equine excrement propaganda mill?

    Which is affiliated with the US hate group Focus on the family:

    You might also want to read through this:

    Here is a clear example of the lengths to which opponents of same sex marriage, and child rearing by gays will go in order to manipulate data and distort evidence to support their narrow minded and bigoted agenda. If there was a body of credible evidence to show that having gay parents was in any way detrimental to children, this would not be necessary!

    I'd also like to see you post things from a credible non biases source as well.

    I posted actual news accounts of what happened in Michigan. This guy fabricated evidence about gay parenting being harmful and got kicked out of court and disavowed by his own university. You can't refute that. In addition, So I don' know what you're talking about.

    We are complicated. And everything about humans is not black/white, up/down, right/wrong.
    But you can believe as you want.


    Here is something from Madison:
    Madison's writings are studied for the debate over human rights among different classes of citizens in the 21st century. Madison appears to have anticipated the danger of a strong majority imposing its will on a weaker minority by popular vote.[122] Madison, in The Federalist Papers, in Federalist No. 51, wrote:

    I wonder how straights manage when the female is in the menstruation cycle that happens 'once in a while'?

    Perhaps we should ask Madison if this applied to perversions. By your definition, the majority are forcing their will on pedophiles and incestuals.

    I wasn't trying to refute anything.

    But just so you know, when I want sources, I want them from credible, unbiased, and objective information that presents to me information from both sides of any issue, including the strengths and weaknesses of any issue so I can at least attempt to make an informed conclusion.

    Being pro issue, or being partial, while may be having some eloquent arguments, is still a biased position, and one I have a hard time with.

    But that's just me.

    In short all I'm really trying to say is I prefer to be level headed and fair minded.

    I don't know about any one else ,but do you really need a study or advanced degree in psychology to know that a young impressionable adolescent is going to be screwed up mentally if they witness two HOMOsexualS having anal intercourse !

    Why do you think that a child or adolescent in the care of gay people is going to witness them having sex any more than a child in the care of heterosexuals ? That is just (*)(*)(*)(*)ing STUPID! Exposure to sexual activity -gay or otherwise by children is harmful and inappropriate . I busted a lot of straight people for doing that. Where do you get this crap that gay people expose children to sex? They are parents like any parents What is wrong with you!!

    Why would any kid see that? Are your kids in your bedroom while you do it?
    Are they seeing you do more than plain ole missionary style?
    At what sex act with your wife do you tell the kids to leave the bedroom?

    What if they witness you placing your heterosexual penis in the mouth of your heterosexual female partner and ejaculating? No problem with that, is there?

    Sorry, but I say (*)(*)(*)(*) that tradition.

    And if you're not going to let homosexuals be married, then I simply say they have every single right in the world to disrupt your stupid messed up tradition.

    See, it's sheet utter bull(*)(*)(*)(*) like this is why I say that whites have a superiority complex and want to feel special and superior.

    And also why I also say that legislation should not be made based on someone's feeling getting hurt.

    WHY THE (*)(*)(*)(*) DO YOU PEOPLE THINK YOU'RE SO SPECIAL THAT THIS IS YOURS AND YOURS ALONE?


    And even more, it's entirely hypocritical.

    FIFTY PERCENT OF ALL MARRIAGES FAIL.


    This is an entirely asinine thing to say and believe.

    Gosh golly gee whillakers.

    I disagree that Madison was defending perversions as minorities. Also, just as we do not want majorities ruling minorities, we should not have minorities ruling majorities.

    How often do you think of the future of the institution of the family? Traditional model we need for our society to live as it lived before. Children need mothers and fathers equally to grow up with understanding that people live for each other. Otherwise we'll have more and more people who don't know what is real heterosexual love.

    The family takes many forms. The future is now. Children need loving parents who are both their legal guardians and they benefit when those parents are married, regardless of their respective genders. We need more and more people who know what love is, in whatever form it takes. Love is love.You make no sense to me.

    Gay people have been around for thousands of years. Most up until recently have just had to pretend or keep their homosexuality private. Gays are already LEGALLY able to be together. SSM being banned doesn't prevent ANYTHING you listed above since gays are ALREADY raising children.

    How is that any different than Johnny walking in on his parents when mommy is giving daddy a blowjob?
