I have heard this argument many, many times, and I don't buy it. Everything I have ever heard about how young men develop states that they do better if they have a father. The fact that your neighbor "seems" to be doing a good job tells me nothing. It won't be clear how this choice will affect the boy for many years.

Mary Cheney's Pregnancy affects us all because it validates the gay lifestyle and indicates that fathers are irrelevant. If it's okay to have this baby, it's okay to have this kid play with your kid and go to school with your child. If you have parents who are lesbians or homosexual dads, how can you keep a book like Heather Has Two Mommies out of the school library. If gay parents are part of the school system, how can you not teach that the gay lifestlye is good and healthy. One thing slides so easily from the other.

Can this affect your child? Absolutely! I live in a very conservative area. I've already heard about a lesbian high school coach who brought her players into her spats with her lover, and the girls on the team had to pretend to be gay to be in with the coach. Many of the high school kids are experimenting with bisexuality.

I used to feel much more tolerant about the gay lifestlye, but over the years all I've seen are people who are very narcissistic and hopelessly self-centered. It's all about their rights, their needs, and their wants. And every one is supposed to rearrange society to make them happy or be considered a bigot. We never, never discuss the lifestyle. As I have observed it, I have come to believe that the gay lifestyle is a totally unhealthy lifestyle. If you promote it, you're twisting reality and hurting people to obtain selfish ends. Being selfish is not good; it's just being selfish.

Look, I have no quarrel with anything you've said. We're in agreement.

These people have always been with us. We had fag teachers and queer coaches 1/2 a century ago when I was in HS and they were surreptitiously recruiting even then.

They've been allowed to set the debate parameters and co-opted the language, moving from "tolerance" to "acceptance" because liberals are 1.) cowards and 2.) will give BJs for votes.

I merely stated what I have observed in both my neighbors and kid's behavior.

Your last paragraph:

That not only describes the gay lifestyle, but the liberal, psuedo-intellectual left in general and an increasing number of parents in this country.
