Do gays have a right to adopt a child

“Should homosexual couples be allowed to adopt a child” I think not. They should not ruin another life which they didn’t bring to this world by themselves.

Re: Do gays have a right to adopt a child

Um, I think that's a tough situation to bring a child up into... but what makes you think they wont be good parents, as you said "they should not ruin another life"

Re: Do gays have a right to adopt a child

women are allowed in some places, men are not pretty much anywhere.

Re: Do gays have a right to adopt a child

the question should be "Should homosexual couples allowed to adopt a child"

Re: Do gays have a right to adopt a child


As I stated in another thread, studies have shown there to be no correlatoin between the orientation of the parents and the child. This is perhaps because people are born with their orientation.

So what's better? A parentless child without guidance, caring, love, home and a family or a child placed in a home where he can receive all these things?

I used to babysit for a little girl with "two moms." One of the moms actually gave birth to the baby. She was perfectly sweet and normal (and yes, liked boys).They don't really care who their parents are so long as they are healthy and happy. I've even known lots of kids raised by homosexual parents who think its pretty "cool" that they have two moms (I haven't known any who have had two dads), and their classmates think the same.

I think that children are much more adaptable and accepting then we adults are.

U should support ur stand ..with some examples .....that y u think it'll ruin that kid's life?
I think therez nuthing wrong in it...... *
*a kid living in an orphange wont mind living in a house where 2 people are there to take care of him.....and provide basic needs.... only for him.

Re: Do gays have a right to adopt a child

I gave my personal opinion by placing myself in the position of the child or the child's parents. I might be wrong in other people's cases.

For those who think it is ok, I have a question from them.

What if (God forbid) you and your spouse die in an accident and leave behind a one year old baby, would you mind if your baby is given to a homosexual couple.

Rightly said, I am going to edit the first post and replace the question with this one. Thanks :)

Re: Do gays have a right to adopt a child

the world is full of many beliefs, the non religious people give their oppinions at the top of their voices and so should the religious . homosexuality is banned in the religions of the book so the answer for those who consider themselves muslims should be to vote a loud NO

Re: Do gays have a right to adopt a child

In a society where unmarried hetrosexual couples, living together, can adopt children, take tax credits etc. it is hyporcritical to say that homosexuals can't.

Re: Do gays have a right to adopt a child

When homosexuals don't believe in making a baby then why do they care about raising one?

Re: Do gays have a right to adopt a child

Re: Do gays have a right to adopt a child

You know, when people talk about gays, its like talking about Democracy. Everyone has their own notion of what Democracy is. The person who has a family and has been married for a dozen years when comes out as gay is very different than the teen who from his time in middle school openly claims/thinks he is gay. And they both are very different from someone like Mark Foley.

Re: Do gays have a right to adopt a child

^ You are right. Gays cannot be stereotyped any more than one can stereotype Muslims, Americans, Republicans, anglo saxons, etc.

Re: Do gays have a right to adopt a child


And don't we all know that "gayness" is a disease, and with the right 'treatment' one can be 'cured' of this disease. Mark Foley is now 'cured', and as Jay Leno said "there is no longer a gay bone in his body!"... Where Big Pharmaceuticals fail you, Big Religion steps in... :)

Re: Do gays have a right to adopt a child

except it is socially acceptable to stereotype muslims these days. Not to say that in muslim lands its not acceptable to stereotype jews or americans. all done by a bunch of idiots, and tolerated by the herds.
