the family unit is a sacred unit.  throughout the many millenia, mankind has held the relationship of man and woman as the union of husband and wife who care for and start families.  they are to bring children into the world and raise them up to be better than they are.  there is no stronger bond than that of a husband and wife.  and parents to their children.  all children are entitled to a father and mother.  and if the unfortunate occurs and a child is missing one or both parents -- that entitlement is still expected.  the child should, be provided for by a father and a mother.  no one should change that.  the forumla for success is greatest when a man and woman hold sacred the union of their marriage AND the raising of their children.  the family unit is a sacred institution and men should not change that.  this is a universally established given in all of our mortal lives.  we are born.  we are raised.  we find our companion.  we marry.  we have our own children.  and we help them to rise up and repeat the process.  and as generations have done it.  we should continue.  hold fast to the foundational values that have always been.
