What kid wants two fathers?

I DISAGREE with Dr. Ellen C. Perrin's Aug. 13 letter, "Sexual orientation of parents doesn't matter to children." Her findings might be true, but she fails to note that the Vatican wants to see all children reared with a father and a mother, which is the way God intended the family to live. What kid wants two fathers or two mothers?

God instituted marriage as the union of a man and a woman. He made them so that they could produce boys and girls and enjoy family life as their father and mother.

Being God-made is part of the natural law, and woe to those who mess with it.
