1 out of 20 seems high to me but I don't really know. Assuming gays are 5% of the population but 10% of pedos obviously that would mean gays are twice as likely to be pedos as straights. If that were the case that would be plenty of reason to not allow homosexuals to adopt. Then again I can't confirm or deny the validity of any of those numbers. Regardless, it takes a mother and a father to make a child and I believe both mother and father relationships are important in raising a child. I don't believe single people or gay couples should be able to adopt except in special circumstances(such as a child being orphaned and the closest relative being single or gay). Before equal rights are brought up, I'll point out that there is no right to adopt. The only thing that matters in adoption is the welfare of the child.
