Yes, drugs, that's why people get divorced. Your a genius, I can't believe I didn't see it before.

On a more serious note.

The divorce rate in America goes up as the sanctity of marriage is taken more and more lightly.

Is it the government's job to teach us the morality of the sanctity of marriage? So now the majority opinion is supposed to teach me their morality.

That is directly in opposition to liberty.

If liberty isn't guaranteed for all, then no one truly has it.

A) don't be so damn obtuse. I said drugs and the free love movement. That was a major movement where people started throwing out personal responsibility in a relationship, and that has trickled down into society today.

B) This is exactly my point. it is NOT the government's job to teach us morality. So who does teach morality? Where are you going to get your morality from? Science? I'm sure that'll work out great. You cannot have a society without morals, and since the government cannot teach morality, they need to support those institutions who do.
