    Well, clearly since you are the voice of moral fortitude, I think I'll clearly have to re-evaluate my "known loser" way of living :56::56::56:

    Anyone who has a strong opinion against gay people adopting clearly says more about the person holding those views than it does the gay people themselves adopting a child.

    Like it or not, any loving family can adopt a child regardless of gender/ sexual orientation. As long as they are proven to be fit and able to provide a loving home to the child then they will be considered.

    To be completely honest, I would much rather a gay couple raised a child than some of the heterosexuals on here imparting their bigoted views onto any offspring they might have.

    Exactly, I totally agree with you - the parent/s will play a massive part in teaching respect, values, tolerance etc so that a child can go on to become a valuable member of society and be well rounded.

    Sadly this never happened in your case did it.

    Just worry about the child in these cases. Seems inevitable they’ll be bullied.

    Or any couple wanting to adopt really...

    Ronaldo has used a surrogate and will be a sole parent don't see any outrage about that. Although you've got to wonder why?

    Anyone who objects to Gay people adopting is Homophobic.

    Or just a traditionalist? People opposed to gay adoption are not necessarily homophobic.

    Traditionalist is just a fancy word for homophobic. What is traditional these days?

    I will never understand 'traditionalist' thinking. 'That's the way it's always been done' seems like the worst argument going. It was once traditional for rabbis to suck babies' dicks. It was once traditional to stone adulterers to death. It was once traditional to execute people for being gay.

    Society, thankfully, progresses and moves onwards (mostly)

    Take your points, although I think those examples are fairly extreme when comparing!

    Incidentally, I never knew that about rabbis. * sake.

    They seem extreme with the benefit of hindsight. Just as in centuries to come, being opposed to gay couples adopting or having a surrogate child whilst allowing straight couples have children they don't care for, may sound extreme.

    Apparently the rabbi thing still goes on in ultra traditionalist Orthodox communities. Theres babies who have died of herpes in New York, caught from the rabbi. * disgusting, and it's defended by its proponents because 'its our tradition'

    They are, by definition...

    Whether they are too ignorant to see that is another matter.

    I take it the gay people who are against gay adoption and who voted no to gay marriage are 'homophobic' as well? They must scream when they pass the mirror.

    This name-calling doesn't help anyone's argument.

    'Tradition' is a word used, when there is no longer a valid reason to continue doing something.
