1) the state should take greater efforts to preserve the sanctity of marriage. It's too easy to quit and walk away. The state has nothing to do with marital sanctity. Prior to the '70s, when divorce was difficult, Hs would walk away from their families and leave them high and dry. Modern family law is designed to protect the interests of the financially weaker spouse. The state can't make people stay together if they don't want to.
2) pornography and masturbation are horribly destructive. In your sitch, this might be true. But this isn't true for every relationship. Also, re MB, I'd like to hear your opinion on this after you've gone 7+ years without sex.
3) watching television weakens families. What if you are all watching the same show? Sunday @ 7PM we all sit down and watch "America's Funniest Videos". D12 & I now watch the evening news together and discuss world events, which is greatly expanding her world view.
4) all children deserve to be raised in a traditional nuclear family If one of the S's is abusive, kids are better off in a single parent home. And kids in a two parent same-sex household do as well as in a "nuclear family", according to recent studies.
5) infidelity should carry criminal penalties You must be a criminal defense attorney. If this law gets passed you'll have a lot of clients.
