Should gay couples be allowed to adopt? -

Sydney · #91 11-22-2001, 11:05 PM

I'm sorry Pinky, could you please rephrase that?

PinkHaired Mudokon CWR · #92 11-22-2001, 11:09 PM

Yeah sure, I did'nt add some details. Your saying that's it's irrelevent to put scriptures and stuff in a discussion, then why do you do it? What does that make you then? I ask people if they would like to see a scripture, to show what i's talking about. I don't just go Matt: 2-3 or something withougt asking people....

Sydney · #93 11-22-2001, 11:22 PM

I understand. If you look at my post again, you'll see that my first paragraph concerned the introduction of religion to government policies and how people should be allowed to behave. In this case, the discussion was about homosexuals adopting children. Someone brought the bible into the discussion, which is irrelevent because not everyone in society follows the bible; there are people of all religions/beliefs.

Once the conversation had evolved into a religious debate, it's perfectly acceptable to use quotes from the bible to back up what you're saying. But I wasn't using them to support any claim of divine law. I just pointed out that it's hypocritical to single out homosexuals when it would be equally valid to deny people who eat shellfish the right to adoption because the bible says thou shalt not eat shellfish.

PinkHaired Mudokon CWR · #94 11-22-2001, 11:24 PM

Yeah, that's true.

Okay let's get back to the topic!!!EEEE!

Lampion · #95 11-23-2001, 02:36 AM

Sorry to point that out, Pinky, but I will have to agree with Daniel Brown's last reply to this topic, just after Sydney's Bible quotes (page 2). It seems that somebody actually has to spell out for you EXACTLY what Sydney meant, as you can't figure it out for yourself.

abe22 · #96 11-23-2001, 03:14 AM

How could it be a sin when God knows how your going to be since he made us?

ODDBODD · #97 11-23-2001, 06:26 AM

and now for my three hundred and thirty nine dollars worth of crap!

Ok getting into the sac with a dude is alright with me, infact! DO IT! But when you think about bringing up a child is another thing.
No offence but i would think that it will be unfair for a child to not have the opportunity to live in a nuclear family.

HOLD UP ODDBODD
"what about single parent families, they dont have the chance to live in a nuclear family?"

Good question families that break up by divorce/death/penguins means that they have no oportunity except for re-marraige. But adopted kids have the chance to be in a family but lending them to gay couples destroys that kids oportunity

HOLD ON ODDBODD
"Isn't that being tight to gays?"

Good question, like i said i have no problems with gay people. Most of them are better people than most hetros (not trying to say anyfling) But the kid boy/girl will find it hard to grow up and have this convo

tootoo: hello
gigi: hi
tootoo: thats a cool dress, did your mum buy that?
gigi: no my dad

By reading this i am sounding like an asshole but thats destiny. Once again i have no offence against letsbefreinds and guys. It's just that adopting children will heave discrimination upon them, and if they couple doesn't think for the child and thinks for themselves well. Wellllll....writers block.

HOLD ON ODDBODD
"you said discrimination, you dont bring that upon yourselves?"

I KNOW! It's those spastics that hate gays and stuff will think of the child as bum scum and orgiefesto. It's those people who should be guilitined. Still i say NO on guys and letsbefreinds having tiddlywinkes.

Um no offense but it looks like can things by self. Look who's talking Lampion. Everytime I trun around you have somthing smart to say and losery, which I think there is no such word but what the hey, I invented it! Bwahaha. You can't even figure out what I am trying to say! When I post your like, Oh, what do you mean and stuff. I mean, what's wrong with your brain? Can you comprehend anything? And sometimes you be saying stuff that's iffy. You said, Oh I'm christian, I believe in evolution theory. Make up your mind! What are you talking about!? So I would just be quiet. Of course Daniel can't because he can never shut up and he never admits anything and thinks that he's right all the time and he's like 9 years old or maybe 10 I dunno.

Hi, Quorisha.
Your last reply just confirmed what I said. I could try to defend my point, but I don't bother doing that. I'll let people who read this topic to judge for themselves.

Yeah, it seems to me that your trying to put up flames and have people go out against me and start a stupid argument that has post up to like 200. I can see it "pinky blah, blah" Well, I don't want to argue with you or anyone else and you probably don't want to either. I am not in the mood right now. It's annoying and it's a waste of my time.

Anyways, Let's get back to the topic puhlease!?

BTw, Don't call me by my real name! I wanna be unknown mistress!

glukkon_daniel · #**102** 11-23-2001, 07:28 PM

This conversation has turned into an "explain exactly what you mean to Pinky" session while she calls you dumb and a hypocrite so she can sound like she knows what she's talking about. If WE'RE the ones who need to work on our comprehension skills, then how come YOU'RE always the one who doesn't understand whenever someone says something perfectly understandable?

Anyway, Pinky. Go to page 2 and look at all those bible scriptures. Can you reply to that?

Zzzzzzz, oops sorry, I felt asleep because I was bored there on what Daniel's untrue statement.

I did'nt call anyone a dumb hypocrite! Quit being a jerk and putting words in my mouth. Like you never called anyone names? Right, you are the main one calling people names, and finding ways to start arguments with people that you don't know. How pathetic can you get? You need to grow up, seriously. Everything was fine until you open your big mouth and started to insult me for no reason.
I understand exactly what you guys are saying. Don't say what I don't understand, you don't know what I don't understand. Your not perfectably understadable yourself. Like you would know what a perfectably understandable statement would say. You always want to beef at everything I say and that's what makes me not like you very much. So stop PMSing, and stay on topic.

Ha, I bet you can't reply on those bible verses yourself. If you can't, then keep your mouth shut.

glukkon_daniel · #**104** 11-23-2001, 08:41 PM

"Ha, I bet you can't reply to those bible verses yourself"

This is EXACTLY what I mean. I don't want to bother explaining it to her, as I'm too frustrated right now.

OMG! You really cannot understand what I'm talking about! LOL! And you say that I don't understand! *laughs harder*

Okay, I'm finished laughing. I know what you mean man. If your so smart and you claim you understand anything, what did I meant by that statement?

PinkHaired Mudokon CWR · #**112** 11-24-2001, 04:09 PM

Thank you, it would be my pleasure. Geez, if this petty fighting would end.

Do you want the whole story or the main details?

Danny · #**113** 11-24-2001, 11:03 PM

Pinky, why do you have no respect for anybody who disagrees with you? You think we have "something wrong with our brains" if we don't agree exactly with what you say. And yes, you DID call Lampion a hypocrite, by saying "Look who's talking Lampion". And anyway, Lampion always understands what people say, and English isn't even his first language, whereas English IS your first language, and you are always misunderstanding people. That is not my opinion, it is a statement of fact.

Now, I think people should stop flaming each other and get on with the Discussion at hand. On that note, I have scrolled back up to the last relevant post, which was Oddbodd's, halfway back up the page, to reply to some of the points he made:

:

No offence but i would think that it will be unfair for a child to not have the opportunity to live in a nuclear family.

I put it to you that a Gay couple is every bit as Nuclear as a Heterosexual couple. I know you have already attempted to deal with the problem of single-parent families, but I will reiterate what I have already said on the subject: I come from a single-parent family, and I am fine. Having a 'traditional' nuclear family isn't as important as having parents who love you, and a Gay couple is just as capable of loving as Hetero couples.

:

the kid boy/girl will find it hard to grow up and have this convo

Sorry, lost me here. Are you saying that their language skills will be impaired, or that they would be socially impaired? Either way, explain what makes you think that they will.

:

tootoo: hello
gigi: hi
tootoo: thats a cool dress, did your mum buy that?
gigi: no my dad

Oddbodd, quite apart from the fact that we are talking about Homosexuals, NOT transvestites, what is wrong with a guy buying dresses for his daughter, anyway? I'm sure there are plenty of heterosexual fathers who have bought their daughters clothes at some point... Besides, the vast majority of Transsexuals are Heterosexual, anyway, so your argument doesn't stand up.

:

It's just that adopting children will heave discrimination upon them, and if they couple doesn't think for the child and thinks for themselves well.

Firstly, the only reason they would be discriminated against is because of people like you, who hold these views. Once Homosexual Adoption is more 'normal', there will be no discrimination. On the other hand, if people like you succeed in keeping it a 'taboo', then the discrimination will continue. As for the last part of that quote, I still have no idea why you would think that a Homosexual couple would care for their child any less.

A lot of what you have typed confused me, so if I have misinterpreted you in any way, please set me right, without getting angry...

Oh, and when have you gave me respect when I disagreed with you? Don't say that I misunderstand you because I don't. If I don't, then I would'nt reply to what you just said. Saying look who's talking, does not mean that I called her a hypocrite, which I did'nt. If you disagree with me, okay. If your talking about my personality that's another thing. Especially if you don't know me. You don't know nothing about me and stop saying that these opinions are facts and crap like that. Do you always think what people act like on the internet, really act like that in real life? If you do, then I pity you. I really don't pay any mind to you, Daniel, or Lampion. You guys had some times when you misunderstand people so don't think that you guys are the only ones who don't. I don't like it when you guys think that I don't understand you guys all the time. That's a lie, not a fact. Yes, I admit I do misunderstand sometimes, but not all the time! That's what It seems like to me and that's what I get mad at. so just leave it alone. Whatever! I don't think you understood Sydney when he said to calm down and leave it alone. but noOOOOoooo. You had to start it all over again.

[Lampion is a guy, Pinky...]

Did I even mention your personality? Did I say anything bad about your personality, or about how you act in real life? No, I didn't. The only reason you typed that is to make people think that I have been being nasty, when I haven't. I know people aren't the same in real life! I never suggested they were! I, for one, am totally different in real life, and I will thank you not to put words into my mouth. Twisting my words is bad enough, but actually making my words up from scratch isn't very nice at all...

Personally, I think you always understand what people say, you just type "I don't understand" or "What are you talking about?" or "You're not making any sense" so that you don't have to respond to what they say...

PinkHaired Mudokon CWR · #**116** 11-24-2001, 11:39 PM

*sigh* You see what I mean? Did I say that you said that you don't know me in real life? NO! I was just adding further detail to what I am trying to say for once without flames and trying to end this stupid argument. I did not write that to make you look bad. Alrighty? And another thing.....Can we please go back to the topic please?!

BTW: Lampion is a male? He's not a good gentlemen if ya ask me! LOL I'm joking.

Just ignore him. He does'nt know what he's talking about. He never talked to me online or in real life and thank goodness I haven't because he's really mean to me. He just started this argument so he can let people go against me since he has nothing else to do besides mess with me over something so stupid and pointless.

So Oddbodd, do you also want to hear on this article I found about gay families?

[ November 24, 2001: Message edited by: PinkHaired Mudokon CWR ]

Sydney · #**118** 11-25-2001, 01:34 AM

Who's to say the nuclear family is ideal? There are many cultures in the world who don't conform to the standards that seem so "normal" to us. Considering the examples I gave earlier that indicate a person raised by homosexuals will actually mature into someone who is better socially/academically adjusted, there's no basis for the claim that a nuclear family is essential for optimum child-raising.

Also, I might point out that if we should succumb to the desires of biggots, then African-Americans would still be under the whip of slavery.

P.S. The majority of transsexuals end up being heterosexual, if you consider their new sex as legitimate. However, most transvestites are actually heterosexual men who get a kick out of dressing in women's clothing.

Pinky, post the whole article if you can just copy and paste it. If you'd have to type out the whole thing then don't worry - just the details will be fine.
