Steve Chapman has really, really gone off the deep end lately.

Gays are treated as more dangerous than felons, drug offenders and known child abusers -- none of whom is categorically barred from adopting.

What Mr. Chapman's statement proves is that the law needs to be changed to bar the above from adopting - not that gays are any more able to adopt.

According to evidence cited by the judge,

I'm sure you could get that "evidence" right off the NAMBLA or GLAAD web sites.

gays are slightly more likely than heterosexuals to suffer psychiatric problems, engage in substance abuse and smoke

Homosexuality is an unrecognized and untreated sexual developmental disorder that causes untold miseray and suffering and causes its sufferers to die by an average age of 42. See, I can cite "evidence", too.

Would orphaned and abandoned children be better off if every one of them could be raised by stable, loving, heterosexual couples? Possibly.

Mr. Chapman totally fails to understand the difference between possible and probable.

Isn’t Townhall supposed to be a conservative website? Why are the allowing sodomite propaganda?

Heres a link to some info about this.

As it happens, those dangers are mostly imaginary. According to evidence cited by the judge, gays are slightly more likely than heterosexuals to suffer psychiatric problems, engage in substance abuse and smoke, but so are lots of other groups that are allowed to adopt. The American Psychological Association says it finds no difference between the parenting of homosexuals and heterosexuals.

let's ignore infidelity and domestic violence, rates of abadonment and separation of partners, just for the sake of argument. Afterall, those are probably the greater issues in heterosexual relationships which lead to instability in the child-rearing environment.(sarc). Legislating from the bench anyone?

[weegee]

If overturning the nation’s laws against same sex sodomy by judicial fiat was really JUST about the actions of consenting adults in private, why is it being taught in schools, why was homosexual activity between adults and minors (or homosexual activity by ANYONE under 18) legalized by the decision?

When does the adopted child consent to be brought into an alternative lifestyle and raised by 2 members of the same sex?

The APA?

You got to be kiddin me....why didn’t the judge just use FactCheck.org?

Pathetic ruling.

Those poor kids.

" she found the law was unconstitutional largely because it violated the rights of foster children to equal treatment under the law.
You could hardly find better proof than this that efforts to combat the "homosexual agenda" mainly serve to harm children in dire need of stable, loving families

What an idiotic rationalization.

What about PROTECTING a child's right to be raised in a setting that best approximates life how NATURE intended? What about the childrens rights to have their SAFETY considered before they are FORCED to be the fantasy fulfilling child in a sick, demented gay fantasy role playing game, using live human children? Ignoring the evidence that gays are highly likely to be pedophiles, and have very violent "relationships" which are very short in duration is hardly considering the child's rights.

But it is a sick, demented application of "equal treatment under the law". Forcing an innocent baby into a life of abuse by mentally unstable demented sexual predators is not what "equal treatment under the law" meant to adress.

When this child resurfaces in their early 20's as a serial killer, with no emotion whatsoever, driven to perform horrific sexual abuses on his victims, The famillies of his victims can thank this liberal judge for saying it's the 'right' sexual deviates to adopt human babies and form their minds to think the sexual abuse done to them while being raised by the entire gay community (that is how many gay partners the adoptive gay "parent" will have had over the span of this childs youth)is "normal.

They’re not ‘gays’ they’re homosexuals. There is no need to use derogatory terms, but euphemisms are not acceptable either.

[doug from upland]

I’ve talked about this for some time. When gay marriage is allowed and treated as equivalent of a normal marriage, they have equal rights to adopt —— including, perhaps, AFFIRMATIVE ACTION in adoption for past discrimination.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Townhall is starting to turn CINO. They’re allowing too many “moderate” voices on their website.

[Thombo2]

“According to evidence cited by the judge,gays are slightly more likely than heterosexuals to suffer psychiatric problems,engage in substance abuse....”.Only “slightly” more likely?Totally eroneous statement.The incidence of mental health problems,drug abuse,and std’s is statistically(profoundly)higher amongst homosexuals than heterosexuals.Domestic violence is another “touchy” issue.Contrary to conventional wisdom(indoctrination),homosexual males do abuse their mates.Again-statistically more so than hetero’s.

[BykrBayb]

What has happened to Townhall?

[HondaCRF450]

Homosexuals want to claim normalcy - and not only that, they want us all to acknowledge it. What happened to TownHall, that they would let this propaganda/filth on their website?

[Sir Francis Dashwood]

Having children is a heterosexual desire.

[Zevonismymuse]

The American Psychological Association says it finds no difference between the parenting of homosexuals and heterosexuals.

That is because the APA is full of homos. There are more queers working in the mental health field than as hairdressers these days.

[Neoliberalnot]

Somehow condemning young boys to a lifetime of sexual abuse and harrassment just doesn’t strike me as being in their best interests. The homos continue to market themselves as kind and loving, completely normal, caregivers. How sensitive of them.
