Gay adoption is an issue I'm torn on. I think it's one of those things we shouldn't be encouraging, but if a gay couple meets all of the other criteria, I don't see any real reason to keep them from adopting.

Yeh, criteria like being of the opposite sex.

Since most states haven't yet managed to keep drug addicts and child abusers from adopting through the state system, it seems premature (to say the least) to fixate on preventing law-abiding, self-supporting gay couples from adopting. Just saw an article on AP today about a heterosexual couple who'd adopted several children, and chose to starve the boys (but not the girls) -- three are recovering, but the fourth, a 19 year old who weighed 45 pounds when discovered, is still hospitalized in serious condition.

I think that, since they are demonstrably mentally ill, they don't meet all the criteria.

Shalom.

Two people of the same sex wanting to live together and copulate together as if they were male and female, need to work on curing their obvious illness, before being viewed as mature and mentally stable enough to parent children.

How can bent people raise a straight child. The kid needs to be with his own kind.

The mere fact that they are practicing sexual perversity is enough to disqualify them.

A child needs a father and a mother in order to grow up correctly. Two mothers or two fathers will result in a twisted child.

The first and third laws of homosexuality apply
