<< I did not say he had to change physically, but rather put aside his feelings to have sexual contact with men. Clinical depression is a physical problem with real measurable symptoms, while homosexuality is not. Its not to say that mental illnesses, such as schitzophrenia, would be automatic disqualifications of the adoption process. It is clearly that these are not comparable circumstances. >>
??????????????? Your rationale here is lacking... what are your specific reasons that a homosexual would have to give up sexual contact with men in order to adopt? Identify a similar list of reasons for lesbians if they are any different.
<< Homosexuality as a lifestyle is taboo in society. >>
??????????? You know what else used to be taboo? Women voting, black people sitting next to white people, women wearing pants... need I go on?
<< If he is openly a proponent of homosexuality then he would have to renounce his activism. If at any time he was an activist for homosexual agendas then he would be in direct contradiction to his renouncement, thereby forfieture of parental rights. >>
So now he can be gay, just not an activist? What the hell does that have to do with adopting children? Again, please delinieate specific reasons as to why a gay man who wants equal rights for gay people is not fit for adoption, but a gay man who accepts his inferiority passively is fit.
<< If a parent is openly aspounding rights to smoke crack cocaine then expect to lose your parental rights. If you were a certified alcoholic that still drank then expect to lose your parental rights. If you rob a person at gunpoint then expect to lose your parental rights. How more clear do I need to be? >>
What does aspounding mean? Nevertheless, you've missed the point that has been made MANY MANY times. How does a monogomous homosexual couple physically endanger a child like your other examples? Where do you get off comparing gays to alcoholics and criminals? Who are they harming??? GET SPECIFIC. and PROVE IT.
All we've seen, MadRat, is your biased opinion. Let's see the facts to back up that opinion. If you don't have facts, you've gotta ask yourself why you cling to those opinions then.
