Actually the read elephant in the room on the subject of marriage is who killed it. The Left now commonly cites the divorce rate as evidence that traditional marriage is already dead, but they are the ones that introduced no fault divorce all over the country and ensured its demise (as well as the introduction of the notion that sex, love, and marriage are all unrelated, nor even that it might be better if they were linked).

It really does take a heck of a heap of chutzpah to castigate the other side of a debate for a situation you created.

Keep in mind that the left made it affordable when they gave single and unwed mothers extra cash for each child. That which you reward you increase.

The left? That's why Oklahoma and Utah and Missisippi and all those leftist states have no-fault divorce?

Let me remind you of a little history: the first no-fault divorce law in America was signed by Gov. Ronald Reagan. The last state to adopt no-fault divorce was New York.
