We are heading to North Dakota for my nephew's wedding this Saturday. I pray for the young couple getting hitched, and hope that their union is blessed with children, prosperity, happiness and good health.
Marriage is still the sacred sacrament instituted by the Father and the Mother to provide for, among other things, the perpetuation of the species.
We must not get sidetracked about marginal people and marginal issues--they should be free to do their thing, but for the majority of the population, heterosexual and earneest, being married is that union blessed by heaven.
The parents are to love, work, individuate and pray, but heir job is to give birth to and train up individuators that will serve as God's living angels.
With a mother and father, and siblings, a budding maverizer has the optimal milieu for making something great out of her life.
That is a comforting and exciting prospect.
