More Gay Adoption

After hearing the debate in class over whether or not gay people should adopt, i have come up with my own opinions. Now i do not personally know any gay people with adopted children nor do i know anybody that was raised by same sex couples but i have heard a lot about it on the news and internet. Many people claim that a child with same sex parents will not get the right upbringing and will develop problems later in life. This goes back to the whole nature vs. nurture debate. So it is hard to study teenagers who had same sex parents and blame all of their faults on that. To a traditional natural law theorist, homosexuality is morally wrong and is considered a sin by the Bible so they would not agree with it. To a positivist, there are certain states that have no laws against same sex couples adopting so as long as its legal, there is no problem. In my personally opinion, i have no qualms about gay adoption. I am actually very for it. There are so many orphans in the world that are in desperate need of a loving home whether its a heterosexual or homosexual couple should not matter. Coming from a feminist perspective, if men and women are equal then it should not matter if its two men, two women, or one of each who raises a child. In the eyes of the law, i feel that if two competent human beings want to take an orphan into their homes and love and care for them, there should be no law restricting that.
