"'How does a homosexual couple reproduce?' I just told you.

"They find surrogate mothers. They find sperm doners and have invitro fertilization. The exact same way single people, who choose not to marry, have children.

Giving about as much respect as I may, that's about as lame of a response as I've heard.

Finding a surrogate mother is not an act of reproduction. Nor is finding a sperm doner (it's 'donor'), nor does having in vitro fertilization. (By the way, how does a homosexual man have in vitro fertilization to become pregnant?)

"The same way as single people who choose not to marry?"

Better do a check on your 'logic.'

Facts is facts: a homosexual act cannot result in offspring; it is impossible. A couple of individuals of the same gender who engage in a homosexual act cannot reproduce through such an act. It is impossible.

It's not a matter of mere semantics; it's science. One cannot take an ova and another ova, nor sperm and sperm, or the genetic makeup of these, and produce an offspring.

That couple requires the consent of a heterosexual couple. Your so-called homosexual reproduction is not an act but a process, an aritifical contrivance requiring the contributions of others, and this process is unnecessary if the reproduction of the species is the objective.

You're basing your argument on the idea that the only reason people engage in lovemaking is to produce children and this is absolutely incorrect. If you have ever worn a condom or had sex with a woman on the pill, then you would know this. Heterosexual couples actually choose not to have children.

Homosexuals want to commit their lives to one another and raise children. "Marriage" protects the children. Homosexual men will find a surrogate mother, (women donate their eggs, too), women will find a sperm donor. They will adopt. They will use the exact same means to them that are available to infertal couples.
