Exactly. And think of the time and dollars that will be spent on this, instead of helping people in desperate need. People are financially hurting in our country and in our world, and instead those dollars will go to promoting bigotry instead of helping people.
I can't help but think that's not what Jesus would do. |

No, my position would send that family to a mom and a dad. There are many Moms and Dads who are desperately seeking to adopt. |

No, I would not deny those stories. I already said that there are some good people in these usually bad situations. I rejoice when good comes out of these bad situations. It's just not the norm. |

We can, and do, spend dollars on both and many other good things. |

I find it hard to believe you know what he'd do, either.
"No, my position would send that family to a mom and a dad. There are many Moms and Dads who are desperately seeking to adopt."
What if there's no mom and dad and a gay personis the only option?

Oh how I wish I were at home and had access to my books and files. I'd post quotes from Brigham Young to Bruce R. McConkie that said exactly the same thing about blacks and the priesthood, Josh. They insisted that African-Americans would never hold the priesthood. McConkie, when confronted on it, was forced to admit he was wrong, a rare feat for a Mormon leader. |
