Having a married mom and dad is better for children, according to a Canadian study that, among other things, finds “daughters of gay parents displaying dramatically low graduation rates.” Fortunately, despite all the noise about gay marriage, most gay people have zero interest in raising children and, because gay sex obviously doesn’t produce offspring, very few gay people ever procreate.
These are just facts, people.
We are descending into a new Dark Ages of mystic belief, where socialized medicine is fiscally responsible, where illegal immigrants have more rights than do American citizens, where sodomy is normal and people who don’t regularly engage in sodomy are considered weird.

Non-fundie: “Well, if a woman gives you head, you are by definition engaging in sodomy, so…”

“Having a married mom and dad is better for children, according to a Canadian study”
Even if we stipulate this, ‘better’ does not mean that the other options are ‘intolerable.’ Just a fact, pissant.
The fact alone you disingenuously try to point to a Canadian mental health study because you think you can torture a sentence or two to fit your narrative but move on quickly to decry the “socialized” medicine behind my country and that study you’re waving like a dog turd on the end of a stick as “Dark Age mysticism” is about all anyone needs to know about your intellectual honesty.
But then again we live in a post-fact world where words don’t mean anything and your precious fee-fees are more important to keep safe than your laws or the rights of anyone that isn’t you because you feel like you should have the right to fuck up everyone else’s life to keep feeling like you’re special.
Having a married mom and dad is better for children
“Better" does not equal “best” and certainly not “only.” I’m sure there are millions of widows and widowers doing the best they can without the benefit of a spouse, but that doesn’t mean their children are doomed for the scrap heap. Having an annual income of $100,000 is better than $25,000 too. So what?
Dark Ages of mystic belief,
You mean like worshipping a sky daddy invented by Bronze Age sheepherders, a god who is supposedly omnipotent and cares about people, but who never seems to actually do anything that helps those with problems?
where socialized medicine is fiscally responsible
It is fiscally responsible in every other industrialized country. Administrative costs are lowest in Italy ($64 per capita) and highest in the United States ($937), so please explain how capitalism produces better results than socialism. Of course, one of the reasons for high costs in the US is multi-million dollar salaries paid to executives at HMOs, such as this guy at $142M: https://www.startribune.com/former-unitedhealth-ceo-made-142-2m-last-year/600171979/
There always are ideals that cannot be attained. People don't separate or divorce for entertainment and they are not insensitive to the situation of their children. Presumably they are adults and you should let them live their lives instead of trying to dictate what they should do. As we know from history and psychology, being forced into unacceptable situations can happen but is also not healthy. An instance is where women don't have rights and a patriarchal culture revolves around their subjugation. Children were also victims of that situation. Women and children had to endure abusive fathers and witness conjugal violence. In more equal societies, families and children also adapt and that has worked for generations. I didn't address the xenophobic conspiracy theories but calling them what they are should be enough.
Confused?
