Why Marriage Matters: Reasons to Believe in Marriage in Postmodern Society (Experiencing God)
How many times have you heard it said that marriage is less risky if you live together first?  That parents who can't get along should divorce for the good of the kids?  That single people are happier than married?  Notions like these seem as obvious to postmodern folk as their contraries did to our grandparent.  No doubt you have heard them...You know they are all canards, and have read somewhere that they have been proven such, but can't put your finger on it.  Seek no further...this book is all you need.   --J. Budziszewski, First Things, September 1998
