Refuting fundamentalists

[GodsRevolt]

I emphasized through indenting the word that raised my bullshitometer. Since I didn't read the link thoroughly, I didn't also indent 'biological', even though I suspect bullshit there, too.

Stating that I was surprised was you putting words in my mouth, or an assumption that something you take to be true was/is everybody's position.('Biological' parents are necessarily better for snotlickers) If so, you are the one surprised. Ergo, projecting.


Isn't the important thing a loving , caring relationship between a child and parent? Finding which combo (single, married, gay, adopted, mormon mothers, etc...) works 'best' seems a secondary concern. Well, unless you are looking for ammunition to use against your favorite group to hate. If a poll of everybody on the planet shows(like that is possible...) lesbian couples make the best parents, should lesbians try to shame and legislate away hetero couples? Of course not. Good eggs, and bad, are found in every demographic. Papers like this can cause more problems than they're worth.

I apologize if I assumed your "surprise". Maybe I am still confused, but the context of your first comment does seem to hint at some sort of disbelief in the results of the posted study. I did not mean to put words in your mouth.

On that note, please do not assume that I hate homosexuals. I believe they are human beings with the same dignity as the rest of humanity, and they deserve respect as such.

So, I guess I should have asked if you agree with the findings of the study. DO you think that, assuming an equal loving home across the board of options, the biological parents would be the best situation for the child?

(Also, you italicized the word you were trying to emphasize. Indent is something different)
