Give me liberty or give me death.
He really does not have a clue as to why two men can not make a baby? He's been reading too much material from PFLAG (Parents Friends of Lesbians and Gays). One of their pamphlets, handed out to public school students, states that scientists have no clue as to why humans are heterosexual.
These people are pathetic and worthy of pity but not affirmation of their sickness. They are so desperate to feel "normal" that they are willing to do just about anything to attain "normalcy" no matter if it destroys a childs life, destroys a church, destroys the notion of family, destroys the reality of normal sex and replaces it with perversions, destroys the notion of "age of consent" so they can have what they deviously refer to as "intergenerational sex".
It was the (probably wise) decision of my biological parents to put me up for adoption. I've always known as I was adopted (unlike some kids, whose ignorance I pity). It made no difference to me: my parents were my parents -- the people who raised me.
The biological mother of my sister, who was also adopted, contacted her and she's a really nice lady and the reunion seemed well received on all sides. I'm happy for her.
My biological parents have not attempted to contact me. Nor have I attempted to contact them. My view is that they made the decision to put me up for adoption, it must therefore be their decision to seek me out. Yes, I'm curious as to what they are like -- any adoptee who says he or she isn't curious about their biological parents is lying -- but not so curious as to attempt to go against their wishes.
Adoption, when done for the right reasons, is a good thing, particularly if the child goes to a couple who have the capacity to raise the child when the biological parents do not: would one condemn a child to hopelessness at birth if there were some means of providing for it? A tough decision for the biological parents to make.
So, I'm not sure what the guy's problem is who you were responding to. Maybe someday I'll end up meeting my biological parents, though I doubt it. I don't feel as if any door was slammed in my face. I felt, honestly, that my birth mother felt she couldn't raise me so she gave me to someone who could: that took a lot of guts, IMO.

Hmm
As you said, your opinion is that it is incumbent upon them to find me. And personally, I do not approve of adopted children seeking out their bio-parents. I find it to be an unwarranted invasion of their lives. And who knows what kind of problems it could cause in their lives today, not to mention the affects it could have on the adopted children if the meeting doesnt go 'as planned'.
He doesn't read FR!
Anyone else remember this line from "The Life of Brian."
"I want to be a woman."The fact that we allow this as a society is as much of a reflection on us as it is on these confused men. All in all, this is pretty sobering considering what God did to Sodom and Gomorrah."What?"
"I want to be a woman. I want to have babies."
"But you can't have babies!"
"Don't oppress me!"
"Look, Reg can't have babies. But at least he can have the right to have babies!"
"Yeah!"
"What's the point?! What's the point of having the right to have babies if you can't have babies?!"
Are you a homosexual?
