Description
“Gay Marriage”: What Is Really at Stake?
Both critics and advocates of the legal acceptance of “gay marriage” argue that marriage’s purposes and basic role in society has been changing. This lecture will push this point further, discussing ways in which this development represents a codification of a new understanding of the human person as such and why it should matter.
