(Gasp! Infringement of rights!) What about the rights of children? To have a father and mother? To be brought into the world without defying the laws of nature?

All well and good in a perfect world, but how are you going to go about enforcing this? Have a law forcing physicians to give out sensitive medical data on their patients? Have doctors force patients to fill out a form that would in effect make patients more likely to lie?

Remove all children from homes with single parents? Where will you put them? Is an abusive "Christian" home better than the best possible gay parent? A gay friend adopted an older troubled child and is providing that child a home 100 times better than any foster family.

Or are you suggesting all assistance with fertility be banned?

At least the Taliban have cool beards, not sure what Jeremiah has to offer on the style front.

Okay, I'll be real clear. I am not advocating, nor have I ever advocated, that children be ripped away from anyone. But to deny children the potential of a mother and father right from the start is anti-nature and the ultimate of selfish.

Single mothers should not be allowed artificial insemination. I am opposed to any technical methods of fertility, but that is a separate issue.

Homosexuals should not be allowed, by law, to foster or adopt children. If they beget children naturally, that's their business. The studies overwhelmingly show that children raised by homosexuals have a wide array of difficulties. Until recently all states had laws preventing this and such laws should be reinstituted.

Everyone has an anecdote, they mean nothing.
