10% of homosexual men are born that way.

So are you saying that those 10% are naturally homosexual?
And if they are natural then why would so many argue that homosexuality is unnatural? Just wondering. Would a better word be "different"?

What's not in the best interest of the child?

Not having access to both parents.

Your statement;

The reason visitation is separated from child support is because studies justified overthrowing the old "tender years" doctrine.

I've had both a competent attorney and a family law judge tell me that the State has determined that both parents should have contact with the child because it was in the best interest of the child to do so. Furthermore, a parents support for that child was a separate issue because you basically can't tell someone they must 'pay' in order to visit their own child.

That's why child support is a separate issue from visitation.

------

It seems we agree on the child having both parents. Have I misunderstood your post?

The people who support this ammendment do understand there is no merit in promoting or advocating homosexual behavior.

If you don't discuss or flaunt your sexuality there's nothing for others to respond to.

The author also doesn't know jack about biology!
What percentage of homosexuals were molested as children?

OKay, let's talk about natural, Joan. Natural as in "according to nature". You know: BIOLOGICAL FACT...

Can a "transgendered" woman become pregnant? Can a "transgendered" man father a child?

Can a homosexual union produce children that they can "parent"?

"I guess the child is just out of luck, huh?"

I've raised one of my own and two others for a SIL in rehab on and off for the past decade and now in PRISON for drug and alcohol abuse, her SIXTH drunk driving offense and embezzling $10K from her own mother.

You got a problem with me wanting kids to have both a FUNCTIONING Mother and Father so the REST OF US don't have to raise other peoples kids? I've done my part for society. Those boys turned out fine and I'd hold them up against any children you've raised, 'Ms. Holier Than Thou.'

How DARE you throw sand at me.

There's nothing natural about homosexuality, because the fundamental imperative of the sexual act, procreation, can never be attained by it.

Homsexual relations can only mimic natural sexual relations between a man and woman. It is always a sterile act.

Liberals now believe there is a "gay" gene. Sexual preferences are inborn and according to them, its unfair to institutionalize discrimination against same sex individuals. Its a matter of putting them on the same footing as heterosexuals in the eyes of the law.

Many of them don't want equal footing. Ask them if they'd be willing to give up any & all of their push for special status if they were allowed to marry. Since they are not physically able to procreate with their partner of choice, I can foresee a potential push for establishing affirmative action in adoptions down the road.

Why are you attributing someone else's words to me and then asking me to justify it?

Answer me that, please.

Truly one of the most stupid things I have ever read. Not even worth discussing.

That's the kicker.

Homosexual 'marriages' are against both natural and civil law.

In nature, a species must reproduce in order to remain viable. Homosexuals cannot.

In civil law, homosexual marriages cannot be sanctioned because civil law is based on common law. Common law is rooted in Biblical law. You cannot join two people in Holy Matrimony if that union is an abomination to God.

---------

Blackstone's Commentaries on the Laws of England, Vol. 1, 1735.

Upon these two foundations, the law of nature and the law of revelation, depend all human laws; that is to say, no human laws should be suffered to contradict these. There are, it is true a great number of indifferent points, in which both the divine law and the natural leave a man at his own liberty; but which are found necessary for the benefit of society to be restrained within certain limits.

I figured that with the nature of the post and all, I could sidle up to some potential on the hoof here (re. your username). ;-)

More seriously, IMO, we don't flaunt our private preferences all over the place, so the inclinations of sodomites shouldn't even be a public topic--especially in court records.

And no, I'm not really a lonely rancher. ;-)

Thanks, Gidget. Women like that just tick me off!

IMHO, you can do two things about kids in crisis; Vote for Conservatives at EVERY opportunity so you don't have even MORE Socialism crammed down your throat at every turn and Walk the friggin' Walk and raise a few kids that aren't your own that don't have two functioning parents. Or even one functioning parent.

Does anyone think it was easy for my husband and I to take in two more kids than we could actually afford? And these were family members; it wasn't like we were getting Foster Care cash or ANY other financial help to raise them. I mean, we only had ONE child of our own for a reason...he was all we could afford, LOL! But it was the right and moral thing to do. And I'd do it again in a heartbeat. I love kids. They ARE the future.

And I don't need some snotty woman calling me out on a road I've already traveled. 'Pppfffftt' to that! ;)

Hey Joan and the rest here for that matter. I wonder how many of you are homosexual or know homosexuals. I wonder how many of those homosexuals that are afraid to admit they are for fear of being torn apart by you guys.

Oh, hey wasn't foley a homosexual that preyed on homosexual pages in the white house?

Isn't bush anti-homos?
