Lightbulb English III Research Project: Gay Adoption

Now, my presentation may not be a whole lot since I'm still in high school, but for English III AP we were required to make a presentation about a contemporary issue in today's society.
Initially, I wanted to do gay marriage, but my friend also wanted to do it and instead I decided to study gay adoption.
I've analyzed several sources as well as interviewed Dr. Paul Cameron for about fifteen minutes. I will make a Powerpoint presentation presenting an unbiased project to my class.
If any of you are interested in seeing the Powerpoint, just send me a private message with your e-mail and I will send it to you.
If you want, I can also send you my works cited page for a list of sources which include some documentaries and newspaper articles, as well as a magazine article from Children's Voice Association which enlightened me in depth in this topic. Most of these sources can be found in the internet (the only one that is not is John Malone's book 21st Century Gay).
Thanks for your time!

You actually spoke to Paul Cameron? How many brillo pads did you go through before the stink was scrubbed away?

hahahahahahahaha well, i managed to block out any sensitivity because of the unbiased nature of my project, but it was only until much later and after a few viewpoints by my friends that i realized how biased he actually was.
yeah, i felt offended, but i had to get the grade so -shrug-

Interviewing Paul Cameron about homosexuality is like interviewing the head of the Ku Klux Klan about African American culture.
