I'm puzzled why you think that changing your sexual orientation would mean you are less of a parent to your children. In what way would that affect the kind of dad you are today?

If you don't think your divorce and remarriage have had ANY affect on your children, you are living in denial. While I admire the fact that you are in a stable marriage today (and don't know the details, nor care to, of your divorce), divorce is one of the most traumatic things for children.
Your sexuality doesn't affect parenting? Are we raising up rocks or people? Confused gender roles. Inability to relate to others at school. False ideas about families. You see being a dad and mom as indepedent of who you are. You seem to think it's direct behavior with the child. Who you are says more than what you do.
This debate would be formed differently if you were an atheist. But you're A CHRISTIAN!!!!!
