What marriage is

To the Editor:

The other day, Capitol Fax columnist Rich Miller wrote that Illinois Republicans can be as ignorant as Democrats when it comes to the issue of marriage. That’s not news. In fact, much of what’s read within the pages of today’s newspapers explains perfectly why the phrase “low-information voters” is gaining popularity.

Case in point: When is the last time you read anything substantive about so-called homosexual “marriage” that actually addressed what marriage is? For centuries, everyone knew instinctively that marriage was not about emotional bonds and sexual feelings – if it were, people could marry friends and more than one person.
