All of the research on gay parents indicates that they are, if anything, more likely to provide a stable, loving household for a child. There is only ONE reason, and ONE reason ONLY that this bill is being introduced - the bigotry of its sponsorship and the tenuous hold that its authors are trying to keep on a weakening support for bans on all things gay - marriage, adoption, etc....


In addition, if one is pro-life and posts a bumper sticker on their car reading "Adoption - the loving option", then the prevention of an entire demographic from adopting children is only contributing to further abortions. (I am pro-chioce, but I thought I'd mention the contradiction of the bill between the two issues.)


Gary Tapp obviously has the priorities of Kentuckians COMPLETELY out of whack - The families I know that are suffering layoffs, limited budgets, and feeding their families could care LESS about this issue. They care about finding work, keeping their children clothed and fed, keeping criminals off the streets, and paying their mortgages.

Well, I have to concede that you’re right when it comes to the
institution of marriage. The 50% divorce rate has proven that breeders
are getting it right. I know when my dad got my mom pregnant that I was
so thankful he left before I was born. He probably got lured away by a
gay. They do that, you know.


So remind me what Jesus said about homosexuality. Directly, like,
the exact words from the New Testament where he outlines the no-no of
homosexuality. I tried to look for it earlier, but I can’t seem to find
it.


Do you believe that all our destines are pre-authored? I think they
refer to that as Calvinism, yes? And if you do, and you believe that
what we are and what we do is pre-ordained by god, then do you think
that God really screwed the pooch when it comes to saddling the gays
with homosexuality? Because, I mean, if salvation is preordained, then
certainly something like homosexuality must be also, right?


I don’t understand when people use phrases like “homosexual
lifestyle” or “homosexual environment.” What is that, exactly? Is there
a mirror ball, a glory hole, and a lot of self-loathing involved? It
seems to me like the only difference between a homosexual couple and a
herterosexual couple is an anatomical difference.


So do you believe that homosexuals don’t deserve to be happy and in
a relationship where they can raise a child? And what is your basis for
that? Is it that you believe a child will “become” gay if you put them
with the gays? Sort of like how tofu takes on the flavor of whatever it
is cooked with.


And I guess my last question is: do you know a gay couple? And I
don’t mean casually cause there is a lesbian couple a few blocks over
that I know of, but I don’t know them. And if you don’t know a gay
couple now, have you ever? And could it possibly be that homosexuality
is much more complex than some give it credit for? Well, sexuality in
general for that matter, I believe, is much more complicated than
what’s floppin’ ‘round in your pants.


Because I can’t think of anything worse than a gay couple raising a
child. You do know that they eat their young, and they use baby’s blood
in their pagan worship, oh, yeah, and you should never look one
straight in the eyes because gay people are all uncontrollable sexual
desire and they might try to mount you if you notice them? Keep your
head down…

This bill does not ensure that children will be placed in homes with two parents.  Singles would still be able to foster or adopt as before.  You clearly do not know what this bill would do.  This bill harms children by eliminating qualified foster and adoptive parents from consideration, based on completely arbitrary and unfounded criteria.
