Clearly the answer is no. Of course it's not that bad. Who is to say what a good parent is? You can be straight(sp?) and be a good parent or a bad parent, the same with a gay parent.
And the excuse: "a kid needs a mom and a dad blablabla" is pretty dumb, then what about single parents? Or the other excuse I've heard a lot "the kid will grow up to be gay if his parents are gay", so then how can a straight couple have a gay kid?

I am proud that Spain has finally made the intelligent choice to legalise gay marriage and adoption, the third country in the worldBig Grin

i think it is great for homosexuals to adopted homeless children or adopting children period....... NO i am not gay by any means but we as human people should not stop a child from having a home

Of course gays should b allowed to adopt. Being gay myself, I want to be able to have a kid. Of course im planning on doing the surrogate mother thing. a few of my girl friends have volunteered to have my child for me. I luv my friends. But back to the point. As long as the parents can provide a healthy and safe environment, there is no reason why gays/bi's/trans/lesbians cannot adopt. We're the same ppl just with a different mate (i couldnt think of perhaps a better word).

Everything goes boom in the end. ^_^

Yeah I know, that's more of a skinhead thing...but it isn't the fourties anymore.


Maybe I need some sort of "I actually hate Nazis and am for gay rights and just have a tendency towards sarcasm that may be in slightly bad taste" disclaimer.

Ok then, fine. We can all pretend I'm a Nazi, it'll make things easier cause then you won't have to read the 1500+ blatantly liberal posts I have on this board, you won't have to read my signature, which is by someone who dedicated his entire life to fighting bigotry, and we can all ignore my profile.

Alright then. I actually DO think that the world will blow up! Wow! And I do think that hell will blow up too! Double wow! And, despite the fact that I am probably gay myself but haven't noticed because I'm too busy hating everyone (after all, I'm a nazi) to feel attraction to another human, I am of course, against gays having any civil rights whatsoever. How logical of me. And how intelligent you are to bring my horrible bigoted beliefs to light.

Ok finn620 you really scare me because as Kidd has pointed out, using the phrases "dangerous race mixing" and "racially impure" and seriously terms that the nazis adopted when speaking about murdering the millions of jews and other oppressed people that they did. I'm serious. You sound like ****ing Hitler or Pol Pot, and that is WAAAAAY NOT OK. Those terms are used by racist dictators and prejuidice and horrible people. It is very scary to think that someone would ever say that. Please re-evaluate your life and your beliefs and ask yourself if you really wish to be a racist (and horrible) person.

Why do you consider that a good reason to adopt. Im adopted so in a way.. isnt that rude towards people who are?

Glad GQ didn't think I wasn't being sarcastic.

That's a pretty bad reason to adopt, mate.

G-d forbid that an evil homo couple adopt a poor, innocent child and turn them into another evil homo child! </sarcasm>

I see no problem with it. There's no logical reason that a gay couple can't adopt a child.

3. However, we must stop some people from adopting or horrible things will happen. So horrible that it is worth allowing children to suffer to prevent them from turning over to the others.
4. For if the others (i.e. gays) adopt children, instead of being good little Christians, they will also become gay. They will adopt and start a chain reaction that will result in straights becoming a minority.
5. Natuarally all the straight people would be killed off.
6. No one would reproduce except by artificial insemination that may result in dangerous race mixing.
7. The end product is a population of racially impure queers.
8. Then the universe implodes.
9. Then we die.
10. Then everyone goes and burns in the eternal pit of fire.
11. And the pit gets so crowded that population control must be implemented.
12. So that blows up too.
13. That may be mildly to moderately unpleasant.
14. Therefore gays cannot adopt.

Ha ha ha, oh that one nearly killed me finn....you're good. Cool

Anyway, as if you couldn't tell already, I totally think that gays should be allowed to adopt. Yeah....that's about all there is to say.
