“Scholars have always recognized the Italian family as the only fundamental institution in the country...In fact, the law, the State and society function only if they do not directly interfere with the family’s supreme interests.”

Good quote.

Family is still very, very, very much alive in Italy.

... there have been times in Italian history when, while the State was weak, daily life continued much the same as it always had, because families continued to do so.....

It was Italy's equivalent of the Second Amendment.

Balderdash.. These perverts cannot, and will not penetrate my family, or any other Italian family that I know.. The family, any family including an Italian one, that is already fractured can be compromised..

Even in divorce, my exwife and I have kept our family close.. How and why, because it’s THE FAMILY.. That’s how... :)

The majority of Christians are statists. Take care of your fellow man through big government. Nothing more Christian than that, right?

For Hilary to equate 'statists' as 'secularists,' is preposterous.
