Divorce leads to the breakdown of the family structure. Letting gays get married would add to the number of married people.

I personally know 4 gay couples, 2 men and 6 women. Two of the Lesbian couples have children. I have seen no evidence that they are not normal, healthy families. They have the same love as straight couples, and they have the same problems as stright couples do too.

So you honestly think that mothers and fathers are simply fungible and offer no special benefits to a child? As to evidence that they are not normal, healthy families, children raised in homosexual households have shown trends in more acting out sexually. I'll grant there still aren't perfectly definitive numbers but I think that's probably more a function of the fact that up until now, we haven't been stupid enough to try and replace the traditional family with an anything goes pot-luck.
