sonofgloin,how are you on mixed race marriage?

Many of those same concerns applied to kids with mixed race parents at one point. No doubt some kid's went through hell from bigot's (and the children of bigot's).

CJ asked me a similar question and as I said to him there is no correlation. With racism you must first identify what the objection is before you can address it. There are a myriad of them, you feel you are "better" than another evolutionally or culturally, you are jealous of what you perceive the group to have, you feel the group is encroaching on the society you evolved in, you are threatened by them, and the list goes on.

With homosexuals you can not apply any of the above yet society holds a deep prejudice and open ended imagination regarding the homosexual lifestyle. Homophobic individuals have a psychological barrier to acceptance instilled by the society they grew in and the moral religious teachings they grew up with. There will always be grass roots opposition and a social experiment using children is obscene.

Those of you, who are pro same sex adoption, give your children up to two men to raise before you unceremoniously give up some waif that has been abandoned.

I do not wish to trade blows here Briar Rose, however, you trailing remark prompts a response. quote in part:
“You people are the problem and You people are causing the problem for the children”.

Actually,you stand accused of intellectual blindness with such remarks and face the charge of abject stupidity. It is my solemn duty to emphasize to you the obvious reality in this debate: It is homosexuals adopting children who are the problem.

It is homosexuals who are the threat to the welfare of the child. It is homosexuals raising the dust on the issue of adoption who are the problem. It is homosexuals exercising a lopsided political power base who rob the community of precious debating time in our parliaments.

It is time which should otherwise be devoted to more pressing issues which should include discussion on the prevalence of poverty and homelessness in communities, which should include discussion on subjects such as drug abuse and youth hopelessness in our communities and otherwise how a parliament could best help in socially positive ways, a community as a collective, encompassing the total gambit of social issues. Enough stupidity is enough. The advances of the homosexual power trippers must end.

But not so anything half so magnanimous can be anticipated; So, alas, with a polished zeal for pressing narrow focused selfish agendas and a constellation of persecution complexes aimed at an overly tolerant and forgiving community which once exhibited a moral connection to a noble past, this selfish little band of homosexual sociopathic brigands has chosen to push a sick agenda of games, aptly described as Mummies and Daddies, through to a conclusion via a highway of wasted time and wasted resources.

<< CJ we will have to agree to disagree on this one >>

Thanks for the civil response, but why do you think homophobia is any more entrenched in our society than racism or discrimination against people with disabilities? When I was a kid open homosexuality was still illegal, racist taunts were normal and disabled kids were institutionalised.

We've come a long way since those unenlightened times, but racism still persists in a minority, disabled people are still fighting for equality, and a minority of people still display homophobic attitudes towards gay people. That doesn't mean that people's rights should be diminished because some bigot is going to give them or their kids a hard time.

It's not an "experiment". It's called social justice - admittedly an unpopular concept among the bigoted minority.

<< Those of you, who are pro same sex adoption, give your children up to two men to raise before you unceremoniously give up some waif that has been abandoned. >>

That's just silly, and you know it.

Funny, here was me thinking that the organ which had the biggest impact on your parenting abilities was the one betwixt your ears, but apparently it's the one betwixt your legs.

Isn't it about time society had the maturity to judge parents-to-be not on the nature of the genitals, but on the content of their character? And why are the bigots so obsessed with other people's genitals anyway? Crikey, guys, there's more to life than sex!

No Riz that's rather a simplistic and unrealistic point to make. What's between your legs is part of who you are and what your role is in society. If that is the case why don't we all get muted, grow kids in labs and take drugs as a substitute to the sensual part of sex.

You're right tho, there is much more to life than sex. A weird thing for you to say as a supporter of homosexual adoption rights tho since their sex is only about pleasure and not procreation.
