You know what else pisses off those moms? Voting, same sex marriage, anti-bullying measures, etc.

Actually, they make \*really \*good lipstick, but I was using it way back before anyone knew who Ellen _was_.

You can’t make a child without “One Man & One Woman” those two wonderful “Men” in the JC PENNY ad can’t make anything but confusion later in those child’s mind of “What is right & what is WRONG”

Which are the deceived? The religious or the ones who believe in equality?

It’s not about “making” a child. It’s about being loving parents to that child. “One Man & One Woman” can royally screw it up and “Two Women” or “Two Men” can get it right.

I had “One Man & One Woman” and I suffered beatings and neglect. To think that “One Man & One Woman” is the only way seems sooooooo “Deceived” that it makes me sick.

Loving same sex parents are better than hateful opposite sex parents.

[These two were “One Man & One Woman.”](http://www.wtae.com/Parents-Of-3-Month-Old-Jailed-On-Child-Abuse-Charges/-/9681798/12279010/-/12oa3m7z/-/index.html) Do you think this was ideal for the kid?

So Mary & Joseph made Jesus?  
That isn’t what I remember learning.

Seemed like Jesus had two dads – just like the kids in this ad.

“howstupidarewe”, speak for yourself. Some of us are smart enough to realize nobody has made a claim of two men reproducing together.
