Children can find role models anywhere. What is most important is that they have good role models of both genders.

Still isn't really working for me. That's because still you aren't reading what is written. You's simply inventing your own version of xongsmith's argument. And that won't get anyone anywhere.Love your enemies!

I can say the same for you. You think that through your scholarship and examination of what has been written you can dismiss it as superstition. Unfortunately you have been deceived, in my opinion.
Saying, "I don't know," is the same as saying, "Maybe."~ZombieRingo It's easy to see the speck in somebody else's ideas - unless it's blocked by the beam in your own.~Ringo If a savage stops believing in his wooden god, it does not mean that there is no God only that God is not wooden.(Leo Tolstoy)

Clarifying. I had no idea what he was talking about when I originally replied.

Let me see if I can help you over your self imposed hurdle ...
The only thing you have going for you is that gay sex can't produce children. But that is no basis on which to determine whether or not gay peoples' children are wanted. and that is precisely the basis for saying that they can't produce an unwanted child between them -- it has nothing to do with their activity before or after or with another person or with any children of such outside relationships -- the focal point is that they can't produce children between them so none of those not produced children will be unwanted. Now stop wasting bandwidth. Edited by RAZD, : sheeshby our ability to understand Rebel☮American☆Zen☯Deist ... to learn ... to think ... to live ... to laugh ... to share.

the focal point is that they can't produce children between them so none of those not produced children will be unwanted. Yeah, how retarded is that!? Something that cannot exist doesn't have an adjective describing it, whoopty-do! None of the soundbites xong offered were either true or meaningful. There's nothing wrong with me pointing that out. Especially if they are unhelpful.
quote: That is false.
quote: That is false.
quote: While a little less false, but still not entirely true, its still not a meaningful or even helpful soundbite. What's wrong with me pointing that out? I don't think that trying to make gay marriages out to be different, even if its meant in a positive way, is a good way to get them to be acceptable. Making them out to be the same would be better for the cause. But you certainly shouldn't be making them out to be different in ways that aren't even true.
Now stop wasting bandwidth. No, and don't tell me what to do. But that is rich coming from you. Shall I draw up a flow chart and some pie charts to show you how gay marriages can have children both before and after their marriage and also how those children can be unwanted?

You're sure going through an awful lot of work to miss the point.

Do you have trouble getting jokes sometimes?

What do you think the point is/was?
Message 76 was spun to hell, in my opinion. And the conclusion was illogical too. Edited by Cat Sci, : No reason given.

It was sarcasm, If your going to use sarcasm to get to a retarded non sequitur, then I'd appreciate a smiley.

I very rarely post anything in the Coffee House seriously.
Maybe EvC Coffee House should have an emoticon for "seriously". - xongsmith, 5.7d

I very rarely post anything in the Coffee House seriously. So do you accept that it is actually relatively easy for gay couples to have unwanted children? Do you think that joking about it as if they couldn't is funny? Know any good racist jokes?
