Maggie: We’ll Beat The Pagans Again

“If marriage really were dead, people would not respond so powerfully
to the idea that marriage matters because children need their mom and
dad. If you despair, I respect that, but why try to get others who have
hope to despair? Do the things for which you have hope. But you may be
wrong about the future. Do not discourage others who have hope from
acting on it.  Our ‘traditional’ view of marriage was won by the
Church over several hundred years of argument with pagan philosophers.
What we did once, we can do again.” – Maggie Gallagher, writing for the National Review.
