IN an article that appeared in The American Thinker last April, Robert Oscar Lopez, who was raised by lesbians, wrote:

Gay parenting is built on sheer adult selfishness, but too many conservatives are scared of saying so because they have family members and colleagues they don’t want to offend.  It wouldn’t be so bad if they chose to live in silence but at least supported those of us who are willing to call people out for doing things that are wrong.  Yet when I say things like this, conservatives get scared; the radio silence deepens, and I end up in Europe again.

Europe is another world entirely.  The French fill the streets and fight gay adoption – not because they are arguing for more civil discourse, but rather because kids have a right to a mom and a dad, and it is urgent to fight people who violate that right.  They invoke the history of slavery when they see people who want to import children conceived by Indian surrogates.  They compare lesbians engaging in sperm-banking and genetic design schemes to Nazi eugenicists, because the parallel is obvious.  They refer to homosexual adoption as child abuse and remind people that it’s cultural genocide and a violation of international law to use children to engage in social experiments that will alienate them from the civic traditions of their biological parents.
