GAY TRUTH

The University of Melbourne logo (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) A New Zealand pro-life commentator has blasted the methodology and findings of an Australian sociological study that found that children with homosexual, bisexual or lesbian parents are happier and healthier than kids from the average family. Writing on his Leading Edge blog on July 22, Brendan Malone stated that the Australian Study of Child Health in Same-Sex Families, out of the University of Melbourne , was “ideologically motivated”. The preliminary findings of the study were listed in an article in the Sunday Star Times in New Zealand on July 21. The lead researcher was Dr Simon Crouch, a homosexual man with four-year-old twin boys. The study collected data on the physical, mental and social wellbeing of 500 children aged 5 to 17, from 315 homosexual, lesbian and bisexual parents. Children from same-sex couples scored better than the national average for Australia in general health and family cohesion measures. T...

The Supreme Court is deciding whether or not to redefine marriage—and we're hearing a lot of claims about how well children do when they’re reared by homosexual couples. Sad to say, some of those claims are being made to the Supremes —and they are completely false. One man who knows a little about this first-hand is Dr. Robert Oscar Lopez, who teaches at California State University at Northridge . Lopez, who says he’s bi-sexual, was raised by his lesbian mother and her partner. And while he’s for civil unions, he’s against redefining marriage. At “Public Discourse,”  a website run by the Witherspoon Institute , Lopez writes of the great professional risk he took when he and Doug Mainwaring filed an amicus brief with the Supreme Court. Risky, because Lopez knows how vicious homosexual activists can sometimes be when anyone disputes their claims. Lopez is speaking out in part because he was asked to do so by others raised by same-sex partners, but who fear the r...

Leon Kass, former chairman of the President's Council on Bioethics (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) WASHINGTON, D.C., March 22, 2013 ( Heritage Foundation ) - Severe flaws and limitations exist in the scientific research into the relatively new phenomenon of same-sex parenting , argue preeminent political scientists Leon R. Kass and Harvey C. Mansfield in  a brief filed with the Supreme Court  by Nelson Lund. The scholars urge the Court not to redefine marriage based on the new and inconclusive research. The academic studies on same-sex parenting purporting to show “no differences” are, Kass and Mansfield argue, “subject to severe constraints arising from limited data” and a lack of “replicable experiments.” They argue: Even if same-sex marriage and child rearing by same-sex couples were far more common than they now are, large amounts of data collected over decades would be required before any responsible researcher could make meaningful scientific estimates of the ...
