The ideal or nothing

A New York Times article says that in spite of gays not being able to marry gay couples continue to adopt kids and are doing it in greater numbers.

Carlos Maza of Equality Matters says that gives the lie to the Fundie claim that we must stop gay marriage to protect the children. Denying marriage doesn't stop adoption. And many adoption agencies want gays to provide families because there are so many kids that need a home. What the Fundies are saying (and they seem to be shifting focus to adoption laws) is that male-female parents are so important that if a kid can't get that he should get no parents at all.
