SUMMARY:

Today on The Dominic Enyart Show, we’re having a strategy meeting! How do we discuss and argue for traditional marriage in a country that has fallen so far away from God? Do we ignore Him, or do we use Jesus’ approach and presuppose the existence and authority of God? Find out today!

Matt Walsh is Catholic.

Sometimes it almost seems like just about everyone happens to be, nowadays, in the world of politics (from all "sides"), media talking heads, and entertainment--either overtly, or at least in terms of upbringing/cultural background.

This was a good episode. I remember other Christians, before most states changed the definition of marriage, arguing the same "functional" reasoning as Walsh was doing, or the traditional reasoning, to little avail--because the functional reason fails with senior citizens who want to marry, and traditional reasoning fails for the very reason that it is man-made and can be remade.

What was funny/sad was that the Walsh's interlocutors knew the correct Christian response and tried to get Walsh to say it, but he wouldn't.

One of the very few things that I learned from a formerly active poster here, one with whom I had a contentious relationship, was that there are two kinds of marriage being discussed in these discussions. There is a biblical/scriptural kind of marriage, whose requirements and expectations have been clearly understood for millennia. And then there is a modern State kind of marriage, which is untethered and subject to the whims and capriciousness of changing culture.

Once I understood that, the arguments/discussions around the matter became non-controversial. To me anyways.
