There is zero research to support the arguement that there's a relationship between homosexual lifestyle and child molestation.

Infact, it is proven that a child molester is unlikely to be attracted to adult males at all.

That's a very 1970's attitude, and it was as ignorant back then as it is now. It's worse if you still think it now, as there has been some enlightenment in this area and people's eyes have opened to the matter more.

This is akin to calling Jewish people baby killers. Minority groups that are disliked or feared often have the worst stereo types applied to them, even if there is no grounds for it.

I think it's a pitiful arguement to suggest that children are in harms way from molestation if the adoptive parents are homosexual. Especially coming from the Catholic church, it's beyond belief they of all people would suggest this.


However, there is an arguement against homosexuals adopting children...

Quote:


American College of Pediatricians (ACP)
"Data on the long-term outcomes of children placed in homosexual households is sparse and gives reason for concern. This research has revealed that children reared in homosexual households are more likely to experience sexual confusion, engage in risky sexual experimentation, and later adopt a homosexual identity. This is concerning since adolescents and young adults who adopt the homosexual lifestyle, are at increased risk for mental health problems, including major depression, anxiety disorders, conduct disorder, substance dependence, and especially suicidal ideation and suicide attempts..."



Another reference

There are areguements against this too in all fairness, but there have been numerous studies that support the basic idea of children raised in a homosexual environment are more likely to be homosexual, or at least sexually confused.

Even if you accept this argument as fact, I suppose it depends on your view of whether it actually matters or not?

Lets assume that it is true (I know this is an assumption, but let's assume it is).

If the child has an increased chance of becoming homosexual because of being raised in a homosexual environment, is this a bad thing?
