Pirilao Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 Should gay couples be allowed to adopt children? Canada has become the third country in the world after Belgium and theNetherlands to allow same-sex marriage. MPs adopted the bill despite fierce opposition from conservative and religious groups. The Spanish parliament is also expected to adopt a law allowing same-sex couples to get married and adopt children. Do you think gay couples should be allowed to adopt?... Link to comment
Senator Gaius Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 yeah...if two people are in love and want kids, what's the problems? Link to comment
Nevareion Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 yeah...if two people are in love and want kids, what's the problems? Ditto. Link to comment
Orioni Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 I believe the same rules for adoption by hetero's can also apply for gay people. They are people too, no need to discriminate. There folks probably even thought about it more then some of those teenage pregnancies you see around. Irresponsible hetero's can have as many kids as they like, while some responsible homo's can't. That's something that's not really correct. And the Pope should try and help in this situation, not condemn it like usually. Link to comment

Pirilao Posted July 5, 2005 Author Share Posted July 5, 2005 Scientists have long ago shown that being gay is a malfunction of some part of the brain so that it is an illness that causes these people to behave differently than otherwise. Ignorance is the main reason for society calling these people names, treating them badly and a whole lot of other nonsense. Gays should be treated with respect and dignity just like people with special needs are supposed to be treated, to mention just one example. I emphasise that the right to marriage should be allowed to gay couples, as without it they stand to lack legal protection and coverage other natural couples have. Hitler dreamt about a perfect society and set about killing millions of people he deemed imperfect. Using his own measures, one can say that he himself was a madman and so he did not deserve to live. I am recalling this historical episode to show the importance of understanding and help society should offer to all its people. Please promote education to make sure this never happens again!

Scipii Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 I think you should lay off Pirilao, just because his views are different to your own. Link to comment
Senator Gaius Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 Wanna nother duel yeah, sorry pirilao. Link to comment
Europa Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 Homosexuals are different, but I wouldn't go as far as calling it an illness. What is consider to be normal and who isn't. Having blue eyes or brown? Color of your hair? Being left or right handed? Being homosexual or heterosexual? Need glasses or not?... Link to comment
Senator Gaius Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 That was what i was trying to say, but the emoticons aren't that expressive Link to comment

Pirilao Posted July 5, 2005 Author Share Posted July 5, 2005 Friends if had read what I wrote with attention I was: Scientists have long ago shown that being gay is malfunction of I add part of the brain so that it is an illness that I cause these people you behave differently than otherwise. I commented what the scientists had shown, personally I do not have capacities to affirm a thing of these. I wait that they have understood me, if not, I only obtain myself to explain better in Portuguese. Link to comment
Senator Gaius Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 ok, fair enough. it's just that implying that homosexuals are like people with special needs is kinda offensive, implies there is something wrong with them @scipii i know, i was joking Link to comment
Pirilao Posted July 5, 2005 Author Share Posted July 5, 2005 @Pirilao: Where did you get that last reply of yours? What it imports this ORIONI, I could have said I I accept the opinion of the ORIONI, but also I can accept the opinion of other people, and, I can also write for other small farms. Link to comment
Akiiryu Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 Homosexuality has nothing to do with mental illness, brain malfunction, nor intellectual disability. I'll leave it at that. That said, I applude your stance on gay marriage. Link to comment
Nevareion Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 I was under the impression that the cause of homosexuality was not yet definately known but was likely to be a genetic cause, a phenomena found in many species apart from humanity Link to comment
Senator Gaius Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 genetic? Is the "gay gene" recessive (right word?), bcos gay people don't always have gay parents Link to comment
Akiiryu Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 It has nothing to do with genetics. Homosexuality is a cultural construct. David halprin and John Boswell are good places to start reading up on the subject (although both have their problems). Link to comment
Senator Gaius Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 What's a cultural construct? Link to comment
