then we agree?

i don't care about the title so why give them a "special title"?

Cool. Im glad we can agree
Its my opinion but im fine with them supporting a child, they'd probably do a better job than a lot of man/woman parents.

I think there is nothing wrong with gay marriages, especially if both chicks are hot and they have a live webcam in their sleeping room...
But I don't think it's a good idea to let a couple of the same gender adopt a child. The child is not able to choose. The child could get mentally disordered and turn gay also, because it could be unintentional forced in the same sexual direction.

Since when has marriage just been a name? Marriage has a very sacred meaning behind it. It was also ment only for men and woman. Gay people have the right to have the rights as straight couples. They however do not have the right to change the meaning of a word that has been used for centuries. Civil unions is what they should get, and nothing more or less.

if you look at as a christian thing. but a secular marriage should not matter.

umm, people don't just turn gay. scientist are fairly certain that it's a part of the brain that developed differently. and even if they did, so what?

I know there are people who have no choice on beeing gay or not, because of their differently developped brain, but I still think that people can turn gay by various circumstances, especially during their puberty. A child should have the chance to grow up in a "normal" social enviroment. It could be seriously confused about it's sexuality when it grows up with gay parents. And there are other social problems comming towards this child. I don't say that gay couples should not be allowed to have a child, I just want you to think it over. If a gay couple decides to adopt a child, now how can the child decide if it wants to grow up with gay parents?
Ther are requirements for couples of different gender too, if they want to adopt a child.

But who sais that the child wishes to grow up in a hetrosexual family? A child can love gay parents as much as hetrosexual parents. And why would it be bad if the gay couple influenced the child and let it turn into a gay too (i think that it is in your brains/genes but ok)? why would the kid encounter "social" problems? if you live in a modern country people will accept gays (exept for a few) so why would the kid encounter social problems? please explain.

Anyone see 'The Birdcage'?

Anyways, I see no problem with homosexuals adopting children. They are able to love and care for a child just as much as a hetreosexual couple.
