So apparently you are one of those who thinks the perfect should stand in the way of the good. Since Laura isn’t married, that child should still be in an orphanage waiting for a perfect family to come.
It’s a good thing she’s doing. It’s not perfect. Maybe the child will have a father some day. Even if she doesn’t, maybe when she grows up, you can ask her if she would like for Laura never to have rescued her.
Your question is pure sophistry. Laura is not one or two flaming homosexual men. She’s not Rosie O’Doughnuts and her “wife”. People are individuals. Every situation is different. Be happy for the kid and for Laura. She doesn’t need the holier-than-thou crowd second guessing her.

No, but you still refuse to argue the issue rationally - instead you accuse me of all manner of libel and evil, so I’ll return the favor.

Apparently, you are one of those people who speak out of both sides of your mouth. Who will jettison principles when they become inconvenient. That is called lacking the courage of your convictions.

I have tried unsuccessfully several times to rationally discuss one question here and have been continually sidetracked with canards, accusations, libel, appeals to emotion, straw men, and invective worth of DU.

The question about homosexual parters is 100% accurate, not sophistry. What is sophistry is your position that what is best for the child is to be anywhere but where she was.

It is also a logic trap because that means that she would INDEED be better off being raised by two homosexual men or Rosie than in a 3rd world orphanage.

Your position is untenable in the same way that pro-homo marriage advocates arguments are when they ignore questions on polygamy, child marriage, and bestiality. They just say “that’s not the same thing” when it clearly is the extension of their logic.

So, AGAIN, I’ll ask the question(s). How is Laura not being a hypocrite based on what SHE has said about the absolute superiority of traditional families? How is this NOT denigrating the role of fatherhood?

If SOMEONE would stick to the questions instead of spewing the bile, accusation, and canards, we might actually be able to have a discussion instead of an emotional tirade worthy of a lib site. I don’t like it, as I’m sure most don’t.
