But the reality is that the studies that have been put forth to support the idea that there is no developmental impact on children of homosexual couples have been shown to be fundamentally flawed...

I would suspect that any study into solo parents, or parents that physically chastise or athiest parents would be found to be fundamentaly flawed. Since there does not seem to be any perfect way to raise a child. I have to admit, I am suspicious of these findings you speak of.

especially considering the war-mongering, civil rights denying, environment destroying priorities of the secular state in which I live.

If you are speaking about Umerika. Then I would question it as a secular state. On paper maybe. But I see no evidence of it being close to a secular state.

The findings simply hold that the body of studies out there are, for the most part, methodologically flawed, suffering from small sample size, non-longitudinality, etc.

But I see no evidence of it being close to a secular state.

Then the question becomes even more pertinent as to why I should put it before my religious affiliation.
