We wont know for a couple of decades yet what the real, long term cost of same gender parents will be.

In my view, it will be at least as bad as the results produced from family situations where abuse of various types is found to have been inflicted upon the kids.

That said....psychiatric fields are going to make big big money for the next century.

What has happened to children who were raised by gay parents? Did they ever go back and find out how they ended up. I think that would or should be enough to stop the foolishness especially if they ended up screwed up.

The accumulated wisdom of over 2,000 years has concluded that the ideal marital and parental configuration is composed of one man and one woman.

I would've said 4000 years but who reads the Old Testament these days.

"The same people who promoted sex outside of marriage and easy access to divorce and abortion are now pushing same sex marriage."

On another thread, a few freepers claimed to be both conservative and pro-cohabitation.

I imagine that 20 years or so from now we will have Freepers ... and yes FreeRepublic will still be here 20 years from now ... that will be in "committed" gay relationships claiming to be both conservative and pro-same-sex-marriage.

They will be in favor of the 2nd amendment, lower taxes, less government regulation, and pole-sitting.

One difference between same sex parents and a single parent is that it is not always a choice to be a single parent. Most are but not all. All same sex parents have chosen to be so. Both situatations form a very shaky ground to raise a child on. If the children matter at all a married two parent man and woman parentage should be established by all means possible.

If you go back 4,000 years then you got that whole polygamy thing you have to deal with!

I am still at a loss as to what point you were making.

I think what is being said is this: It is much easier to fool a child into being the victim of a pedophile if the child hasn't had an opportunity to fulfill his/her need for fatherly affection with a real daddy. The child will be less likely to yield to the natural urges to fight back or tell someone because they are so starved for male attention.

Sure, but that was not God's way, that was man's way. God's plan for marriage was laid out in Genesis 2. Mankind just hasn't always followed it.

True ... but did you also notice LEBIANS seek little girls for adoption and foster care and “gay” males ALWAYS seek little boys for the same. It is NO COINCIDENCE that they seek same sex kids ... MANY do NOT draw the line on AGE.
AGE is NOT always a boundary for MANY. So they get to molest these kids whenever they chose to.

Survey: Male gay teachers abuse most (Males are VISUAL!)

October 11, 2007

A survey of news stories in seven English-speaking countries conducted by the Family Research Institute shows that incidents of teacher-pupil sex are most often perpetrated by male homosexual teachers. Overall, 43 percent of teachers who made the news for having sex with their pupils over the last 27 years were homosexual.

Homosexual teachers violated 1,925 (56 percent) of the 3,457 pupil-victims. Women were 11 percent of perpetrators, but a heterosexual female teacher was least apt to have sex with pupils, Christian Newswire reported Thursday.

Lexis-Nexis was searched from 1980 through 2006 uncovering 902 teachers who had sex with pupils. Teachers who engaged in homosexuality constituted 63 percent of perpetrators in Ireland, 62 percent in New Zealand, 60 percent in Canada, 54 percent in Scotland, 48 percent in Australia, 47 percent in England and 35 percent in the United States.

Impressive numbers, when in the U.S. it is estimated that at most 1-2% of the population or to be generous 3% of the population are homosexual.

Here’s the study:

Abstract:

Abstract: In news stories in English across the world for 1980-2006,

902 teachers engaged in sex with 3,457 pupils.

Teachers engaging in same-sex sex constituted 63% of perpetrators in Ireland,

62% in New Zealand,

60% in Canada,

54% in Scotland,

48% in Australia,

47% in England, and

35% in the U.S.;

in smaller samples, homosexuals accounted for 71% of perpetrators in mainland Europe,

26% in Africa, and

13% in Asia.

Proportionately more same-sex sexual activity with pupils occurred in the West as compared to Asia and Africa.

Most (54% of 810 male, 83% of 92 female) teachers violated only opposite sex pupils;

43% of perpetrators engaged in homosexuality; and

55% of victims were boys.

Findings for each country or set of countries were consistent with U.S. studies based on superintendent report, principal report, self-report, and convictions indicating that a male homosexual is the most and a female heterosexual the least apt to have sex with pupils.

Where would I be if I was a predator?

NEAR KIDS!

“a male homosexual is the most and a female heterosexual the least apt to have sex with pupils.”

Yes! BTW LEBIANS don’t always draw the line for molestation by AGE either. So it’s a dual agenda - molest them and have the kids chose THEIR “lifestyle choice”. It's like an ugly family receipe - abuse others so they will abuse. No one is "born that way". It's ALL ABOUT ABUSE - emotionally/physically or both.

No, this is not surprising. Consider the recent story of the Australian male couple procuring twin boys from a California IFV factory. They specifically chose the sex of the twins. One for each, I suppose. Absolutely abominable.

“A stated goal of the homosexual agenda is to break down resistance to its worldview by any means. An effective method is to turn the mind and hearts of a society’s children”

They are already doing that through the public school system. If anyone says anything off color about the gay life-style, expect your typical teacher to respond with the politically correct response that it is a life-style choice and that no one should be judgemental.

I happen to agree that homosexuals are more apt to prey on children. They obviously have mental issues.

I think my problem with the homosexual movement started the first time someone called it sex.

How could fudge packing be called sex?
