Clearly you don't make any of those things illegal. But, armed with the knowledge that children who grow up without both a male and a female resident role model are relatively disadvantaged, neither should you seek to deliberately place children in those situations, surely? This has nothing to do with whether or not homosexuality is a choice, and to be honest it's not about what a homosexual couple might want either, it's about what is best for the children.
Except of course that this is a little OT as you were asking what the Pope would think about legalisation of gay marriage, not the pro and cons of gay adoption.
