Family Matters

Dr. Allan Carlson, president of the Howard Center, a think tank for Family, Religion and Society says " The natural family is the fundamental social unit, inscribed in human nature, and centered on the voluntary union of a man and a woman in the lifelong covenant of marriage. The natural family is defined by marriage, procreation and, in some cultures, adoption. Free, secure and stable families that welcome children are necessary for healthy society. The society that abandons the natural family as the norm is destined for chaos and suffering. The loving family reaches out in love and service to their communities and those in need. All social and cultural institutions should respect and uphold the rights and responsibilities of the family." I think his organization has some of the best research available for "pro family" thinkers..... http://www.profam.org/Default.htm
