Strong marriages are the key to a successful society. The media revelry over failed marriages such as that of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez doesn't help.
Jennifer Lopez, the Hollywood singer and actress, and her fourth husband, actor and filmmaker Ben Affleck, are rumored to be getting a divorce after two years ofThe institution of marriage is the singular most important factor in a stable society. As the institution of marriage declines, the next generations suffer. Statistics show that children who grow up with parents in long-term marriages become the most productive members of society.
Unsurprisingly, long-term marriages are important and beneficial. But when our culture degrades the institution of marriage, that degradation all too often becomes a source of entertainment. No one should aspire to the four marriages of celebrities such as Lopez. She has misunderstood the purpose of vows to include “until death do us part.”
For Lopez and Affleck, the media obsession with their marriage affairs is hardly entertaining. But the story sells because culture undervalues the traditional institution of marriage. The problem is that marriage is not supposed to be an optional agreement dependent on romance, happiness, or ease. It is sad that traditional relationships have evolved into fixations on short-term considerations. That reality is harming families.The institution of marriage is sacred.
The traditional family will be and always has been the cornerstone of a flourishing culture. And this begins with strong marriages.
