Opposition to gay adoption is opposition to child welfare--plain and simple.

Here's an article that highlights the real agenda behind the push by some groups to deny homosexuals the right to adopt children.

There is absolutely no evidence that children suffer any harm from growing up in a family consisting of a homosexual parent. ZERO!

To advocate keeping a child in foster care just because some people have issues with homosexuality is to put one's agenda ahead of what's best for children.

Any group that advocates denying homosexuals the right to adopt to protect the children is nothing more than bigotry and is not really in the best interest of the children.

Too many children need loving and stable homes. To ignore a whole population of willing and capable potential parents on the grounds of sexual orientation is morally outrageous.

Don't Ask, Don't Tell nothing more than bigotry. Time to move into the post-modern world.

"Don't Ask Don't Tell" is a stupid idea and anyone who thinks it is workable is stupid.

Here's why.

The ostensible reason for enacting "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" was to prevent disruptions (whatever that means) in the military brought on by openly gay service members.

Now correct me if I'm mistaken, but who would be causing these disruptions? Would it be the gay personnel? Knowing that historically most homosexuals are pretty tight-lipped about being gay in mixed company, I suspect they wouldn't be the disruptive sort.

So who does that leave? The straight service personnel who are uncomfortable by homosexuals. Why would the straight service members be disruptive over serving with the openly gay?

The obvious explanation is simple: The straight service members would create trouble because of their issues.

"Don't Ask, Don't Tell" is nothing more than a bigot-protection policy. The military wants to protect all the bigots within its ranks. At whose expense though? Qualified personnel who just happen to be gay.

The military's position doesn't hold water historically.

Take the Spartans for example: Spartans were known to encourage homosexuality amongst their soldiers. It served to improve unit cohesion if everybody was screwing everybody and everyone cared.

Would anyone in the modern military dare call the Spartans substandard from a military perspective. Hardly.

In the end, "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" came about to give the military adjustment time.

The U.S. military has had 15 years to get used to the reality of gays in the military. It's time to own it.
