IP#188 Dr. Robert George - What Is Marriage? Man and Woman: A Defense on Inside the Pages



Dr. Robert George, Princeton professor of Philosophy, discusses why we must first answer the question of what marriage really is before we can begin to defend the institution of marriage. He, and his co-authors, contend that marriage is a comprehensive union of mind and body, a conjugal union, ordered to family life, which unites a man and a woman as husband and wife. They document the social value of applying this principle in law.
