Today we're discussing a recent study many news outlets have reported on, which looks at the children of same-sex couples and concludes that these children fare the same or better than children of heterosexual couples. We start with some thoughts on "gay marriage" in general from a biblical standpoint, which would hold accurate even if this study were valid. Then we break down the study analysis, which was funded by China (the CCP), and its methodology, which has more than a few glaring issues, and outcomes. We share some studies that have been correctly done, which show that the opposite seems to be true \u2013 children of heterosexual couples indeed do fare better by many different metrics. We also share a big show update coming soon!\n\n---\n\nTimecodes:\n\n(00:43) Show update!\n(05:20) Gym class analogy\n(16:00) Gay parenting analysis / thoughts on "gay marriage"\n(26:15) Who did the study\n(30:36) Methodology & outcomes\n(38:05) Problems with methodology\n(43:27) Opposing viewpoints\n\n---\n\nToday's Sponsors:\n\nNaturally\xa0It's Clean \u2014 visit\xa0https://naturallyitsclean.com/allie\xa0and use promo code "ALLIE" to receive 15% off your order.
