Has anyone seen "Rosie's Family Cruise"? I saw a brief part of it, and not only is it a crappy documentary, but it also enrages me to know that there are so many good couples and families out there who either can't adopt, or don't want to go through the arduous process associated with it, but meanwhile, these sick, perverse same-sex "couples" are allowed to adopt children?

Just because a couple happens to consist of one man and one woman does not mean that they are necessarily likely to be good parents, or even remotely acceptable parents. And just because it consists of two men or two women doesn't mean that they canNOT be good parents. People are people, and they all deserve to be evaluated on their own merits.
Also, if some couples don't want to go through the arduous process associated with it, don't condemn the gay couples who have more determination and dedication to having a family than these straight couples with delusions of entitlement.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I would like to introduce you all to Ajay. Ajay is a moron whom I have debate with on several occasions. Not only is Ajay sexist and a homophobe he's also a racist. He says American couples should be ashamed of themselves for adopting Asian children and that he won't be working in a gas station any time soon because he doesn't "wear a towel on his head".
Ajay thinks he's going to be president someday.
If you think the process to adopt children is 'arduous' for straight couples, you have no idea what gay couples have to go through. Then, once they finally get the child, they're constantly bashed by small-minded people who don't think they shouldn't be entitled to children. (Like, for example, YOU Ajay.)
Oh, and by the way, drop the quotes around the word couple. Whether or not you agree with their sexual orientation, the definition of 'couple' applies equally to homosexuals and heterosexuals alike.
Let's drop all requirements for adoption. No garantuee that you can take care of the child, job requirements, proof of good behaviour and so on. Let's see what would happen to the children. Because this is what you prefer over letting a "qualified" (who is really quallified for getting children) gay couple adopt a child.
If we are to work in the interest of all those poor children who lack a family right now, we should welcome the inclusion of gay couples. Even if you personally have problems with gays, it's still better for the kids to have some family than no family...obviously provided that they are, as families, no worse than heterosexual families that can adopt.

you said it, Last Conformist. If you can't fill out forms, if you lack that sort of patience - if you're too scared to honestly answer questions about yourself, etc - then how on earth could you ever be a parent?
If only there was some way of preventing children being born to bad parents, the same way we try to screen unsuitable people from adopting. Now THAT would be a positive development.
A loving family is ALWAYS better than a hurtful, hateful one, no matter it's gender makeup.
This same person probably thinks it's OK for a single person who's been widowed to keep and raise his own children, right? Then let's say the single guy gets some friends to move in to help him. Let's call them "Joey" and "Jesse," and the dad "Danny," just so we have something to call them.
Then one day while the girls are out, Danny, Jesse, and Joey have a hot gay threesome in the recording studio in the basement.
Now, up until this point, Danny, Jesse, and Joey are all fantastic parents to their three girls. They teach them not to fight, not to smoke, and how to do Scrappy-Doo impressions. But suddenlym through something completely unrelated to D.J., Stephanie, and Michelle, these poor mixxed up guys are not only universally reviled, but automatically become bad parents? That doesn"t seem fair given all Danny went through teaching not only D.J., but also her crazy best friend Kimmy Gibbler, how to drive.
Anyway, just a hypothetical situation I'm throing out there.
Yes, who knew, "No child shall be left behind," meant retarded the development of all the smart ones down to the pace of the slowest?
David D.G. for the win. I wonder what Ajay had to say about the polygamist scandal in Texas. All good, old-fashioned straight folks over there who just happened to like banging underage girls and justifying their twisted fantasies with religion. How much do you want to bet that Ajay has not uttered a peep of protest against them, but has hurled hellfire and brimstone against homosexuals at every opportunity? Children deserve a safe, loving home, regardless of gender. Period.
If a couple cannot or will not adopt, but can accidental have a family, how does tha make them any better then a family who cannot or will not have natural children, bu adopt those less fortunate? If fundies are worried about orphaned kids/wards-of-the-state being put in a homosexual household, Why don't you open up your own homes and help them, assholes...
I am an adopted child, and my adopted parents are a billion times better then my biological parents. Family is more then just sharing genes...
If there were so many ready-to-adopt heterosexual couples out there, we wouldn't have any parentless children left in the world. But we do, we really, really do. The next time you see a same-sex couple who have adopted a child, thank them.
Isn't it the same arduous process associated with adoption, regardless of the genders of the prospective adoptive parents?
In what way are same-sex couples more sick and perverse than opposite-sex couples? Anal sex is more common in the second group, as there are more of them.
As one of those who didn't want to go through the arduous process of either adoption or assisted fertility treatments, I have no problem with people, who did go through the process, being allowed to adopt.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
