Having parents isn’t a burden that children can’t handle.
I think you probably mean having gay parents. To say that children can handle it is a bit of a general statement to make. Some may well be able to take it but why should they have to. There is no reason for same sex couples to raise children and take a risk on the well being of the child. It is a selfish act of "they have children, so why can't we" without any consideration of the potential damage that maybe inflicted on the child. We have turned into a very selfish society where we want to do what ever we want to do regardless of who it might hurt.
I don’t know why you assume gay parents are having wild sex with random strangers all the time and talking to their children about it.
Well, because that is the truth of it. It is a known fact that gays are not manogamous. Nearly a 100% of married gay couples will stray. These are the people who want to be allowed to get married making a complete mokery of the institution of marriage.
And this, an exert from a child raised by gays,
“I wasn’t surrounded by average heterosexual couples,” she says in her court brief. “Dad’s partners slept and ate in our home, and they took me along to meeting places in the LGBT communities. I was exposed to overt sexual activities like sodomy, nudity, pornography, group sex, sadomasochism and the ilk.”
“There was no guarantee that any of my Dad’s partners would be around for long, and yet I often had to obey them,” she said. “My rights and innocence were violated.”
Homosexual Journalist Admits, ‘Gay Lifestyle is a Sewer’
The pro-sodomite media would have us believe that all homosexuals are in a wonderful, long-term, committed relationship with only one other person. They are portrayed as just another kind of “family” perfectly capable of raising children and making a valuable contribution to society.
But British broadcast journalist Simon Fanschawe disagrees. Himself a homosexual, he produced a documentary for the BBC called The Trouble With Gay Men. After reviewing some graphic stories of group sexual encounters in a bath house, he asks, “Are we just swimming around in a sewer which we are sort of saying is normal?” His conclusion: “…the gay lifestyle is incompatible with happiness and fidelity in human relations.”
This is because that “promiscuity has become the norm….” If promiscuity is the norm, why do we only hear of the “committed relationships” that “deserve” to be recognized with formal and legal “marriage?” It is because the sodomite lobby gained control of Hollywood and the news media and we are denied the truth. Studies have shown that even the small number of homosexuals who claim to be in a “committed relationship” have their own definition of monogamy.
Homosexual researchers Marshall Kirk and Hunter Madsen found that “the cheating ratio of ‘married’ gay males, given enough time, approaches 100%...Many gay lovers, bowing to the inevitable, agree to an ‘open relationship,’ for which there are as many sets of ground rules as there are couples.”
In fact, another study concluded that 43 percent of male homosexuals have more than 500 partners in their lifetime. A smaller percentage had over 1000. Thus, the wonderful same-sex “family” image we are fed is largely a myth.

Same reasons anyone else would want to raise children. My cousin has always wanted a child to care for - being a lesbian doesn't change anything about that.
Being married and raising children has taught me that you cannot always have what you want in life because of our responsibilities to others. It does not seem to be a consideration as to whether the child will suffer in the process as long as they get what they want.
And with adoption, they can give a home to a child who otherwise wouldn’t have one.
In the UK that is not a problem. There are far more people wanting to adopt then there are children to be adopted. The fact that there are children that need to be adopted is a reflection of the moral degradation of our society.
Why wouldn’t you think that the same emotions that were involved in your decisions surrounding having and raising kids would so much different between two parents of the same sex?
Because two men or two women cannot procreate, therefore, they cannot perpetuate their seed, unless they get outside help which will only perpetuate one of their seeds.
Why wouldn’t they? All human beings share the same hormones that facilitate bonding behavior, trust and psychological stability.
Because there is no biological link between them. My children are the product of both me and my wife. We created them together and that creates a bond like no other bond. I love my nieces and nephews but not in the same way as I do my child. In fact, I do not love anyone in the same way as I love my children. It is a special bond between two people who are biologically linked. I do not believe that the same things exist between children who are adopted and their parents. I believe it is a spiritual link.
Some of the studies I presented to you regarding gay parenting talked about how children are better in a family setting (regardless of the sex of the parents), than they are in an orphanage or foster care type of setting.
Yes, I would agree with that, but that is just the best of two bad situations. Ideally, orphanages should be empty. In the UK the are a temporary stop gap whilst suitable parents are found.
Not to mention the fact that many gay females give birth to their own biological children, and so your fears are not warranted there.
Fine, if you are not a Christian because for that to happen one of them must commit adultery, plus, only one will be the actual biological parent.
Adoption is probably not an easy option for gay people to make, given the social stigma and intense scrutiny (evident in your posts) that still surrounds them to some degree.
I am a realist. I tell it how I see it and it does not sit right for me. I certainly would not stigmatize them or even let them know my true feeling for fear of offending them, but I am indoctrinated with the lifestyle of a Christian. I can only see marriage between a man and a woman being necessary, according to Gods design. Anything else does not contribute to the Plan of Salvation.
I don’t think there’s any reason to assume most gay people that want to adopt children are involved in these promiscuous types of lifestyles you are talking about.
How do you know that? What if you are wrong.
Why would only one of the parents have a bond with the child? Are you talking now talking about lesbians relationships where one of the women gives birth to her biological child? If that’s where you’re going, you could ask the same question of heterosexual couples: If only the mother gives birth to the child, how can the father develop a bond with that child?
Because only one of them would be the biological paren.
Why does anyone have children? I’m sure the responses vary among heterosexuals as they do among homosexuals. Why would the reasons be so different?
Because only a man and a woman can perpetuate their seed
This kind of thinking though, ignores the fact that some children are going to discover, as they grow up, that they may be gay, or bisexual, or transgendered, or any other host of things, and may already be experiencing such feelings and wondering why they’re different from everyone else which leads to all the terrible things you mention occurring more frequently among gay people like depression, isolation, ostracization, etc.
That would only be true if gays are born gay and not made that way. If they really have no choice, but that one is hard to accept. Only when you put so much importance in sex will you create these different sexual groups. We have become a society that thrives on sex, and the more perverse the better. If sex was not so important then I would not be surprised if the deviations in sexual orentation wouldn't exists.far there is still no absolutes that they are born that way, I i believe that it will be proven by science.
Shielding kids from the existence of gay people until they’re grown adults isn’t really doing them any favors. You don’t have to get into details about sexual positions and whatnot when you explain homosexuality, in the same way you don’t have to do so to explain heterosexuality. Sexual orientation doesn’t just boil down to sex positions or some kind of “lifestyle.” It boils down to who a person finds him/herself attracted to in life and who they are going to contentedly spend their life with and raise kids of they desire (or not), as you have been so lucky to be able to do without anyone questioning your “lifestyle.”
That is not what I sheild them from, I protect them from evil and sexual perversion is a sin, it is evil. I don't want their minds exposed to it created images that could harm them so I choose not to tell them until they are mature enouh to uderstand it.
That’s great and I’m sure many other parents care about moral values and accountability just as much as you do. I would think love, respect, dignity and compassion toward our fellow human beings would be a part of that.
I have just read that a survey conducted in the US found that a third of those asked if they believe in having morals said no they do not consider being moral in anyway a necessity. The do what the want.
