I used to think no on this issue. But how can I say yes to gay marriage, and no to adoption? Its a double standard.

If I say yes to gay marriage, then i'm saying its OK to be gay. If gays want to raise a child, then it probably should be OK since there's nothing wrong with being gay. If I say no, then it's like i'm saying its wrong to be gay, or you shouldn't be gay. Society still believes that being gay is wrong, or not the norm. Were giving them the opportunity to marry, but now we don't want their kids to become like them? Why? Becuase we believe being gay is wrong.

After considering that, I think the kid should beable to make the decision for himself. I think if gays want to adopt a kid they should go through a process like everyone else and have to teach the kid "both ways" so they can decide for themselves if thats at all possible. Maybe its not an environmental thing, maybe its genes and DNA. I don't know.
