You'll notice it's you and the angry, defensive crowd who're spewing the hate
Scroll back through the posts. It's illuminating. 'Sick to the stomach' is one. Very emotional. Very aggressive
Is that the sort of reaction we see here from an OP that sheds a little light ? That dares to drag the truth from behind the rock it's been hidden beneath ?
Depression, overwhelming depression affecting children adopted by gay couples ... depression so life-endangering that it causes those children to prefer death to life ?
Depression so deep, so all-encompassing that it stops those children from physically growing ?
Hey, you toss all the epithets around that you like, if that's what it takes for you to feel ok about all this

You know I think putting a straight kid into a family with two gay parents could almost be considered abuse. You know how it is when you watch TV and then all the sudden unexpectedly you see two guys kiss and your first INVOLUNTARY reaction is to vomit a little in your own mouth? Well that is what a poor straight kid would have to deal with on a daily basis.

Kids understand it just fine. They have a frame of reference, if hate-filled people don't try to keep being gay underground. It's not homosexuality itself that is the problem, but attitudes like yours where homosexuality is somehow inferior.
You are the problem, not gay folks.

I think maybe I have just come up with a solution to this problem. We don't we wait until a kid is say 5 or so and then decide if they are gay (since they are allegedly born that way). Then when we see a little boy running around wearing high heels and playing barbies or a girl running around being butch and domineering then we could place the little gay boy in a home with two gay men and the little gay girl in a home with two lesbians. Then everyone is happy and with their own kind and less trauma as a result.

I am not saying that is how I want to feel when I see two men kiss, but that it is just my natural reaction.. it is involuntary. I wish it were different because puking in your own mouth is not really very enjoyable.
So, you take the bible word for word. When was the last time you stoned someone to death for have their hedge too high? That's in the bible. Let's not be picky, shall we. More?

Those of us who believe in Our G_D, The Lord Jesus Christ, do our best to follow Him. He is the One who tells us that homosexuality, theft, murder...
is inferior. Take your argument to Him.

This is NOT an 'anti gay' thread, in case you hadn't noticed
THIS THREAD concerns reported research which claims that children who're adopted by gay couples suffer stress (from the situation in which they've been placed, i.e., gay parents) which exceeds the pain they experienced when abandoned/given up by their biological parents or when they lived in an orphanage or other facility
The stress is reported to create within the adopted children a depression so overwhelming that it can result in suicide. And it's claimed their overall height is diminished as the result of being placed with gay parents
Now, if you read of children being so negatively affected by ANY situation, would you nevertheless ignore the child's suffering in order to indulge those who are part of that suffering ?
For example, if children were contemplating suicide and failing to realise their physical potential because they lived in a certain State, or attended a particular religious school, or because they ate three slices of toast each day .... would you decide it was fine for the kids to suffer, as long as it didn't negatively reflect on the cause ? Would you ?
So this is not so much a 'gay issue' as it's an issue involving children's welfare
Which is something people are tending to ignore or conveniently forget
For once, it's NOT about gays and their love of the limelight
IT'S ABOUT THE KIDS !
