While searching for Mark Regnerus’ marital status (yea, doesn’t prove or disprove anything for closet cases), I found an blog post from Scientific American that makes a very good point: > [@](#): > > Suppose for a moment that all the critiques of his methodology did not apply, and that his was a robust study. Would its conclusions change your opinion on gay and lesbian couples having children? > > If your answer is yes, I’m afraid you have your work cut out for you. By saying empirical data on who rears more stable children is a factor in deciding who should be able to have children, you would be scientifically remiss in stopping at gay and lesbian couples.
