If it could be proven that the gay family is just as "normal" (sorry about that word again) or "stable" as the traditional Mother/Father/Child family then that would quiet some people against gay marriage.

Let's face it - there are a lot of unwanted children in this country who are being raised poorly simply because their parents despise having "ruined" their own life by having kids (usually by accident...)
I'd be willing to bet that any gay couple who wants to have children is going to TRY to do a damn good job of raising them... Why? Because having children is completely optional to them so there's probably already a strong interest in raising that child well (just like heterosexual couples who adopt children when they can't get pregnant...)
