Extract

Imagine yourself as a person who has a nice home, a good job, religious faith, and a loving relationship with another person of the same sex. The first three
things in the previous sentence would almost indefinitely make you a good prospect to be a parent of an adopted child. These are the main things that adoption agencies look for in a parent's background. However, the last thing mentioned would (in most states) immediately eliminate you from being able to adopt a child.
This angers many people who see themselves as good people who could be good parents to those children who have no families and are up for adoption. Homosexuals argue that parenting is about responsibility and commitment, not sexual orientation.
