The Family Research Council has yet another "report" online about why gay marriage is bad for the universe. I particularly appreciated their use of this "study" that's so old they can't really pinpoint what century it's from. Getting a bit desperate, are they?
In his exhaustive examination of human history, Giovanni Battista Vico (1668-1744), Professor of Rhetoric at the University of Naples, concluded that marriage between a man and a woman is an essential characteristic of civilization, and as such is the 'seedbed' of society. Vico warned that chaos would ensue in the absence of strong social norms encouraging marital faithfulness and the loving care of children born to the union.
