Ohio Introduces Gay Adoption Ban

Well my dear conservative Christians are at it again. They want to ban adoptions of children by gay people in Ohio. It doesn't matter that the best available evidence we have suggests that children raised in a gay household are no worse off than those raised in other adoptive households. There are almost 164,000 households headed by gay and lesbian parents in the U.S. alone. Why don't the conservative Christians ask the the children in these households if they want to leave their families? There isn't a surplus of married men and women lining up to adopt these children, either. How some Christians can want to deny these kids the chance to be loved and nurtured by anyone is a mystery to me!
