To begin, I do NOT have any form of religion, nor does my culture have a stand-point on homosexuality.
My opinion on homosexuals 'being allowed to have children through the use of IVF' is:
No. No they shouldn't.
This is a non-religious statement: "If homosexual couples were supposed to 'conceive', evolution would have already supplied them with the means to do so."
Homosexuality is not a 20th century phenomenon, it has probably been around since 'sexuality' existed.
However the science behind IVF has only been around in our lifetime.
I don't think it is really fair on society to pander to the needs of minorities in such a way to disrupt their own lives. Be it through taxes or other public paid services such as scientific research (as happens in some countries), or public resources such as genetic material (sperm, etc).
Also the fact that there are many children in need of adoption around the world.
As far as people using the excuse that homosexual parents shouldn't be allowed to have IVF treatment because:
Homosexual Parents will [paraphrasing] "Give their children a stigma throughout their lives"
and
"They will disease their children with the 'gayness' (i.e. make them homosexual as well)"
...please.
If that were the case then adoptive 'Heterosexual' parents all over the world would be making their children change colours (ethnicity) if different to biological parents, and passing down any hereditary diseases they may of had in past generations to them.
The only thing that a 'homosexual' parent will do to change anything different in the child's life than what the biological parents would of, is purely how the child looks at the world. (Be that good or bad as everyone has an opinion)
So basically I don't agree with IVF use on homosexuals due to scientific/social reasons.
/my opinion.
(I tried to stay as much on topic as possible, even to the point of not stating my own views on homosexuality)
(Apologies if I offended any hillbillies or rednecks or rug-munchers. No Apologies to the fags tho)
