The Office of JCL

JCL, what are you positions on school vouchers, private schools, and homeschooling?

[Goldwater]

JCL, I have been having a hard time deciding who to give my third preference to, and that answer has convinced me to give it to you.

[Goldwater]

Jeez, people. JCL is not a "raving fundamentalist", he's just a typical social conservative who's been outcasted by the extreme social liberalism of Atlasia. People like Torie and Vosem have supported people IRL who oppose gay marriage, what makes JCL any different?

[Goldwater]

Congrats, JCL!

JCL, do you oppose adoptions by single parents?

JCL, do you oppose adoptions by single parents?

I was raised by a single parent. My mother from 3-11 and my dad after that. While I think any situation besides the two parent married heterosexual couple is less than ideal,  if the circumstances were right a single could. There's this young lady who became a missionary in Africa. I believe she adopted some 14 or so African kids. The story is talked about in the book Kisses from Katie. .

So you have no problems with single parents, but gay parents are unacceptable because a child does better with a mother and a father?

If your union can't produce new life, you don't get to adopt. I gave you one instance where a single could do it. The circumstances of my life from 3-adulthood of how I was raised wouldn't be close to the ideal situation but it is miles ahead of a gay couple could ever offer.

Why, exactly? I thought the argument was that children need both a father figure and a mother figure? So why, for example, would just having a mother be preferable to having two father figures?
