An Argument Wears Thin

It would seem in the late great debate of blessed unions we must either cast marriage as the linchpin of our civilization -- that to change our chosen definition of this institution signals our downfall;

Or that marriage is simply a means to an end, be it solving the "division" between the sexes, or right procreation -- a tool in either the human or divine toolbox to somehow fix us.

Sadly, neither idolatry nor utilitarianism make for good theology, nor do they disclose God's healing love for broken human hearts.
