The only "fundamental structure" that should be looked at for any family is the love and care provided. It matters not the sex of the parent(s) involved.

Well actually he's saying (and via his chosen quote and source) that such single-parent homes are already quite common.
But from what is presented this is due to the predicaments and choices of heterosexuals.
It's almost lately as if gay people must somehow "save" the failed heterosexual structure in some weird way.
So as a gay person I'm presented with another example of the spectacular failure of heterosexuality.
And what do they do about it?
Well blame it on the gays!
Totally not nice, and really useless in every way imaginable.
But that's not surprising really.
That's the lack of quality we've come to expect.
Just claim anything anti-gay, the other homophobes will fill in the missing parts as they go along.edit on 9-8-2012 by halfoldman because: (no reason given)
The OP simply stated that, as we didn't know what would happen in single parent homes, we don't know the long term effect of gay parent homes, either, and we should, for the sake of the children.

I swear it is time to crack down on the cult of evangelicalism. It is not a religion (as they will tell you), so it is not a "faith." Since it is not a faith or a religion, it falls outside the Constitution and can thus be properly labeled as the hate group it is.
OP, your parents (your heterosexual parents) failed you. They raise you as the most dangerous of person -- a soft bigot with a moral superiority complex inherent in an evangelical.
If you had gay parents, you'd have turned out more kind.

That isn't saying who should and should not be a parent, but any parent should wan to know if something about their situation will have an adverse effect on their children.

You said because it doesnt matter that its unnatural (so you accept its unatural)
You said good things good from being unnatural, like computers.
I think what I'm trying to say is, I'm all for freedom, but when are boundries crossed?
