DIVORCED FROM REALITY from Touchstone Magazine

There is an excellent article in the Jan/Feb 2009 issue of Touchstone Magazine written by Stephen Baskerville, an associate professor of Government at Patrick Henry College. He says: "G.K. Chesterton once observed that the family serves as the principal check on government power, and he suggested that someday the family and the state would confront one another. That day has arrived. Chesterton was writing about divorce, and despite extensive public attention to almost every other threat to the family, divorce remains the most direct and serious. Michael McManus of Marriage Savers writes that 'divorce is a far more grievous blow to marriage than today's challenge by gays.'" Please read the entire article. Here's the link.

Thanks Cindy. That was an excellent article. I looked at the Marriage Savers website too and it looks like a good organization.
