So you think that people are adopting kids they don't want, purely for the furtherance of a political agenda?

My guess is that these people are adopting kids because they want to raise kids, and plan to give them a healthy stable loving home. And those same people, since they are gay, are hoping to help raise a more tolerant and accepting generation.

Yep. I think that's much more likely than the first scenario.

But thanks for letting us all know that, unlike heterosexuals who generally have children because they want to raise and love and nurture children, gays are just doing it to make the future world be more pro-gay...
Okay I'm usually on the more conservative side, but these conservatives seem to take it to a whole new level. Gays are not a different species! They are people and they want to raise children for the same reason heteros do. Is that hard to understand? Or am I just crazy?

And there you have it. You disagree with the behavior, and want to be sure everyone else is taught that is's evil. Do we all get to ban people from doing the things we dislike?

And that "sin", by the way, is defined as such by a religion. Can you show us any non religious reason to teach that same intolerance?

I follow God's rules. Yes, homosexual behavior is evil.

People who don't believe in your God don't need to follow His rules.

You are correct. Those that follow the "god" of this evil world, Satan, can and will do as they choose. There is a judgment coming, however, by the real almighty God. There will be a horrible price for willfully choosing to follow the wrong "god".

So is marriage without producing a son and a daughter, divorce, eating bacon, back talking parents, and believing in a false Messiah (ie the entirety of the Christian faith). Are you teaching your son and daughter to hate people who eat bacon and go to church on Sunday rather than shul on Shabbat?

One final comment on your inane "Gays are adopting in order to raise a new pro-gay generation!".

The number of children being raised by gay couples is 65,000:
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/14/us...pagewanted=all

The number of children in the United States is 23.7% (see below) of 314,000,000 (current U.S. population), or 74.4 million children.
USA QuickFacts from the US Census Bureau

So, this aspect of the 'gay agenda' that you're peddling involves raising less than 1/10th of 1% of the current child populace in order to create a new pro-gay generation...

Some advice: it helps to run a "is this even plausible?" check on your conspiracy theory before touting it.
