In a new column on Catholic Womanhood, writer Jennifer Uebbing explains that a common problem in arguing against a redefinition of marriage is implicitly accepting the idea that such as redefinition is possible.
"Marriage is not a human invention or a cultural construct, but rather, the revealed truth of something written into our very beings," she writes.
Entering into the argument "for" or "against" the redefinition of marriage, she says, generally ignores the question of "What is the point of marriage?"
If we fail to define that, it is fairly easy to understand why many "good-hearted and well-intentioned" people have thrown their support behind something that has been presented as fight for the "equality" and "dignity" of all people.
