The Assault of the State on Marriage

The Revenge of Religious Liberty by Thomas Storck

I think Mr. Storck attributes too much to [Lockean] liberalism as a cause - rather it is the predicament of an "immigrant" Church (rather than a "missionary" Church) in conflict with a growing, centralized state that is no longer Christian. Mr. Storck still adheres to a nationalist understanding of the founding - the federal government is national government and the ultimate authority in all public matters.
