I'm taking a Politics class in school and the topic of gay adoption/marriage came up and I was wondering what your opinions of it? (I looked for a pre-existing thread for it and couldn't find it)

I dont support the act, but i still love the people
You SHOULD support the act because it's between two consenting adults, which is no one else's business AND how can you love someone but deny them their basic rights? It's like saying you can't marry cause of your race or your eye color.

About the homosexual adoption my skepticism is due to a concern that since there are such powerful stereotypes against homoeroticism that the youngster will be ostracized or even hassled because of their parents being gay.
You can be harassed for anything it seems. You can be harassed and ostracized because your hetero parents are too poor, fat, skinny, tall. Ostracized also for not having the latest gadgets, book bags, lunch boxes, anything.

I dont support the act,


Why? Because of bull**** in the bible like this?-->

Leviticus 20:13 (New International Version)

13 ââIf a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.

If you were an orphan would you prefer to have no parents or gay parents?

Frankly, I can't answer your question, because I have no idea how my character would be if I were an orphan. I don't know what and how I would think, ergo I cannot know what I would prefer.

Hey, you fire and grim yeah you. Ever stop to think that you were being massive hypocrites? It's his choice to not approve of the act like it's homosexual's choice to adopt or have sex at all. Yes I understand that it's most likely genetic but that doesn't mean you have to have sex it's a choice. Just because you think you're right doesn't mean you are.

Now, past defending your right to hold any opinion you want are you in favor of legal gay marriage?

So... You want to deny the nice people their rights then? You think they're nice but don't deserve the same rights as heterosexual couples?

These things should not be choosen by a few people. they should be legal, and those who don't like it don't have to do it. Plain and simple as that.

I agree, but at the same time those who believe it's wrong shouldn't be hated for their opinion.

Not at all. Of course gay communities and the sort would start to appear. But that can't be helped. People want to live by people that are similiar to them.

That wasn't the question. Do you believe gay marriage should be legal or illegal?
