I am against same-sex marriage and believe that there should be a constitutional ammendment banning it.

I am also against civil unions. I believe that there should be a constitutional ammendment banning it.

I am also against the ability for homosexuals and single-parents to adopt. Only married couples should adopt.

Every child deserves a mother and a father and society cannot last in the long haul without traditional families.

I am against people who are bigoted getting married, having children and teaching their children to be bigots too.

I don't think bigots should be allowed to have civil unions either.

I am also against bigots being allowed to adopt.

Every child deserves parents who are not ignorant bigots, who love them and encourage them to be critical thinkers with open minds.

Now I'll just go look up some biblical scripture that I can manipulate and twist to support this.

Very well said. I'm not sure how I feel about single parent adoption though. As far as everything else I agree 100%.

As far as single parent adoption, if you want to have kids and are divorced, etc. or just never got married, you should be able to as long as you support the kids. You should not be able to have kids WITH an unmarried partner.

Yes I am against homosexual marriage. I am also against couples raising children in unconvential circumstances. I am not against single parents. But, I feel that if a single parent chooses to add a stepparent into the picture there needs to be an actual marriage.

I am NOT against homosexuality as you assumed. The main reason I am against homosexual marriage actually is that I feel that a big part of marriage is the ability to start a family.

Lady.. you have been all over my case in the Parenting Forum "How old do you think one should be when they have their first children".. I have never put words into your mouth.. I've never said that you were against 'homosexuality'.. this is what I said:

"Well.. darlin.. I hate to break it to you but some people don't 'believe' in marriage and some people are still not allowed legally to get married. But I'm guessing you're prob part of the population that is against homosexual marriages.. or else you prob wouldn't have brought it up. However.. for the sake of inclusiveness.. I used SO.. I beg your pardon."

This probably would have been the right forum to argue about this...you're right. But don't say I'm personally attacking you because I'm certainly not...just trying to have a healthy debate.
