DOJ: ‘No Scientific Basis' for Saying Same-Sex Couples ‘Not Fit to…Become Parents’

In an amicus brief submitted to the Supreme Court in the case of Obergefell v. Hodges, which the court will hear tomorrow, the U.S. Department of Justice argues that state laws prohibiting two people of the same sex from marrying each other are unconstitutional.

In its argument to the court, DOJ approvingly cites a statement issued by the government relations office of the American Psychological Association that says: “There is no scientific basis for the assertion that lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender persons are not fit to marry or to become parents of health and well-adjusted children.” …

I though I remembered there being a reference to making people accept NOISE as Music somewhere on that list.

This comes quite close howeverL

Control art critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.”

add another bullet point and add “music” and we HAVE todays number one recorded “entertainment” product” “rap”...”music”..aka UGLY NOISE!!

Repugnant only scratches the surface of what that GARBAGE is!

its purveyors are these PUNKS....BEATLES! Frank SInatra,,,,etc,,etc,

I had to look it up:

argumentum ad verecundiam: (argument from authority) the fallacy of appealing to the testimony of an authority outside his special field.

We are now ruled by “enlightened” judges, who are wiser than 1000s of years of civilization. They are smarter than we mortal men. There is no more democracy.

They aren’t fit to become parents because they CAN’T become parents except through adoption or surrogacy or pre-gay heterosexual sex. They are NOT a natural family unit.

During the ‘80s, in a crooked, mobbed-up little Midwestern city with a high proportion of descendants of Italy and the Balkans, a judge had two adult, openly lesbian daughters. That area was extremely corrupt.

President Bush was going to see the very pro-family Dr. Wade Horn appointed to administer an office in HHS, but influential Republican feminists stopped it. Now, we see a consequence of allowing that sort of element into the Party. University feminist groups also keep the male homosexuals under their wings (wings: see harpies).

Well, “that sort of element” was already there long before Bush.

This is like saying a woman who aborts her baby is now a real mom.

Indeed, it is in complete dishonor of the roles of man and woman from which they came from and to which they pretend to support. This is a complete fraud, like a pirate who steals a boat and then claims he was for free Carribean cruise business all along. Homosexuality fits in the communist Orwelianism of ends justifying the means.

These judges perfectly know that homosexual marriage is a redefinition of marriage entirely. Because now it is recognizing the validity of marriage not on the imperative of raising children, but on sexual preference.

In other words abusing a child does not break the marriage contract, but changing one’s sexuality breaks the contract.

That is the pure evil of how marriage has been completely redefined on sole material fascist racist basis.

I thought science dealt with observation/collecting data/making guesses based on the observations and collected data....

There have been several young adult children of same-sex couples speaking out lately. DOJ needs to interview them; it’s not pretty.

No scientific basis? Other than the scientific fact that two homosexuals cannot create a child.
