God created Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve. God first created a male and female. He wanted the female and male to reproduce.“God created man in His image; in the Divine image he created him; male and female He created them. God blessed them, saying: ‘Be fertile and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it.’” (Gen. 1:28-29) The same was taught from Jesus Christ that whenever a child is born he is to leave his parents and go to his wife.“From the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female.

    Adoption by non-heterosexual couples has been a big topic to discuss for the last decade because some critics in this society are against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people (LGBT) being able to adopt because they are different than “everyone” else and they do not meet the criteria that today’s society is used to.

Due to the simple fact that gays are still fighting for rights that they should have had decades ago. The topic today is gay adoption, and I am for it one hundred percent. There is no reason why gay couples should not be able to adopt a child, while there are thousands of children who don’t have families, and more enough ways of adopting, same-sex couples are just as loving and capable of caring for a child, just like heterosexual couples.
