adoption is not a right, and as so subject to a fitness test, be on a financial, psychological or any other level etc so dont bring in the 'love' argument because unless you prove financial fitness no one cares how much love you have for the kid. And if we as a society deem it, in a democratic fashion, unfit for a gay couple to adopt a kid then so be it, i guess denmark and norway, beacons of freedoms and progress are intolerant too since it's illegal there. I also encourage those vehemently opposed to this, to go out and 'save' that kid by adopting them themselves.
