Would you address the article, instead of just throwing out ad hominem? It makes some important points, IMO.

Dobson makes a bunch of assumptions, unverified assumptions. Sure a family with a mother and father is best, if stable, but that does not mean that something less than the best is unacceptable. Dobson seems to want to make illegal for lesbians to have children somehow (which of course is unconstitutional but whatever, but then Dobson has an authoritarian streak in him), and to have a flat out ban on gays adopting, which would be at once a tragedy and cruel, not only to them, but to kids that needs homes (and gays talk some of the hard to place ones, since in many states they are disfavored). Once we have some data that gays make poor parents, we can talk. It isn't out there, and won't be, so I guess we won't talk.

I know where Dobson is coming from on this and other related issues. I don't want to go there.
