That means the state has to give ground
I was making the point that perhaps gay relationships are regressive for humanity
I am an atheist
As far as legislation goes marriage laws are designed to offer people an incentive to have children
the only reason would be just the benefits for having kids. and it would then be argued that they would never have a kid to qualify for them anyway
Because without a new generation populating the country the country weakens
exactly
However
Homosexual couples don’t produce children
and I assume they cant raise them very well either
even if they dopt
adopt*
They actually can
Homosexual couples are just as good at being parents as straight couples
I doubt that very much
technically homosexual couples can produce children. its just one parent would have to adopt the child, as it would most likely be mother/father by a surrogate
out side normal adoption
The study that deemed them worse was horseshit because it compared gay parents to intact straight parents which is inherently flawed when gay marriage isn’t legal thus gay households aren’t as stable
It depends on if they're trying to make political statements with their children.
why would gay couples be less stable because they cant marry?
that doesnt make sense to me
Because without the legal contract you are inherently less stable
if they are a good couple that can raise good children what does it matter if the govt lets them marry or not
I see your point but I dont think that is the reason why they perform worse at raising children
If two people are married they have incentive to stay together. Separating has costs.
Marriage is essentially a proclamation that two lives are in essence one.
It's not a new concept
the children are more reason to stay together that marriage is
u cant kill ur kids but u can divorce
And it's not just a Christian concept
Unmarried people do not have these costs, a single bad fight can result in the end of the relationship as there is no major cost preventing one party from just exiting
if they do that then they are inmature
and shouldnt have a kid in the first place
a bad marriage is worse than a good divorce
for the children
marriage made more sense when "until death do us part" meant living until you were 50, and your kid was grown up at like 15.
since 3 kids with the same person would fill up most of that 50 years time frame.
Should children be taken from broken households and put into stewardship by that same logic?
“A bad marriage” which again, gays couldn’t have until a few years ago
tbh I consider homosexuality a mental illness
