Children and this wrong-headed idea of marriage

In the light of the Church of England’s current situation, let us ask ourselves about the societal purpose of marriage.

Comment David Shepherd

When you think about it, the State does not regulate or require an official record any other type of personal relationship, except marriage. You’re not required to register yourself with the authorities as someone’s friend, or even as someone’s sibling. The latter is just inferred from the fact that two children have been born to the same couple.
