Live for yourself” is quite possibly one of the most destructive and pervasive lies of our time. But why is this lie so dangerous?

Title: An Intact Family is a Stronger Family
Topic: Marriage and the Family
Discussed by Dr. Patrick Fagan
with Marripedia www.marripedia.org


Part 1 of 2

MARRIpedia is a great new internet tool that everyone should save to their desktop – or even use as your homepage when you log on to the internet every day! Created by The Family Research Council, MARRIpedia is an online social science encyclopedia on all matters related to family, marriage, religion, and sexuality. The purpose of MARRIpedia is to let the data do the talking. The numerous cross-links illustrate the overlap of family and religion and a vast array of issues such as education, the economy, poverty, crime, and abuse.

Dr. Patrick Fagan is the Director of the Marriage and Religion Research Institute with The Family Research Council. Dr. Fagan is also the Editor and creator of MARRIpedia. He is here today to explain just what MARRIpedia is and why the FRC designed the new website.

Through observation of the data, researchers have concluded that the intact married family that worships God weekly is the core strength of any nation,” declares Dr. Fagan. The weakest family unit is the unmarried mother/father with children who do not worship God at all. In between, there are two other categories: the intact married family who does not worship and the broken family who worships regularly.

Listen in to the next segment with Dr. Fagan as he discusses more about MARRIpedia and how to use the website to learn more about family issues.

Title: Boycotting for Traditional Families
Topic: Marriage and the Family
Discussed by Cathie Adams
with Texas Eagle Forum   (www.TexasEagle.org)

During the holiday season, many people bring up the issue of boycotting business that do not align with Christian values. Some people don’t believe that boycotts are effective; others are adamant that they are. Cathie Adams is here today to discuss the importance of standing for traditional family values. She says that there is definitely research which proves that boycotts of specific businesses are effective.                                            

But what about in politics? The Texas Republican Party State Convention is currently set to take place this coming May in Dallas, where the city council recently secretly and unanimously passed an ordinance similar to HERO allowing transgender males the opportunity to use female only facilities.

Should the Republican Party boycott and not attend the convention or move it to another city such as Houston?

Title: Restoring the Natural Family
Topic: Marriage and the Family
Discussed by Robert Knight
with Robert H Knight (www.RobertHKnight.com)


Part 1 of 2

Recently, Robert Knight attended the World Congress of Families IX (WCF9) in Salt Lake City with 200 speakers and over 3,300 attendees from more than 50 countries. Robert said it felt like a rock concert for pro-life, pro-family American citizens. It was amazing! He was so encouraged to see so many people stand in faith for family values.

However, if you listen to the MSM and the progressive elites, they insist that the mom-dad family is no longer necessary and can replaced by whatever adults want to do to gratify themselves. Robert Knight doesn’t believe this is true. “The natural family is not dead,” he says. The left is just lying, like they always do, saying it is creating more diversity. “In reality, they leave a trail of victims behind,” Robert says. Listen in as he discusses the breakdown of the family, according to the left, and how it only hurts women and children.

Rafael Cruz, father of Presidential Candidate Ted Cruz, gave an outstanding speech at t the WCF9 convention urging civil disobedience in regards to the Supreme Court decision in June allowing homosexual marriage across the nation. But what about Sanctuary Cities? How can we justify allowing illegal aliens access to our country’s money and healthcare when a county clerk is ostracized for refusing to issue a marriage license to a gay couple? The same goes for transgender youth and men who wish to use whatever restroom/locker room/shower on a particular day. Robert says, “It’s totally hypocritical. It’s our way or the highway.” Our Founding Fathers must be rolling in their graves.

Out of the 293 countries that belong to the UN, only 20 have changed the definition of marriage to include same-sex couples. Only two of the largest countries, Brazil and the United States, have used the court system to do this. “The cultural elites in this country are way out of step with the people,” Robert believes. He goes on to say, “The sexual revolution is a way to empower bullies!

Title: Part 2 of 2 - Restoring the Natural Family
Topic: Marriage and the Family
Discussed by Robert Knight
with Robert H Knight (www.RobertHKnight.com)

Research has shown that children are more likely to grow up in poverty if they live in a single-parent household. In fact, some of the speakers at the WCF9 in Salt Lake City linked current economic problems and the lack of government growth to the collapse of the natural family. Do these studies and opinions have any merit, though? Robert Knight believes they do. “The countries that have let marriage become weak and have basically socialized childcare are suffering greatly,” Robert reveals. You can just look at any inner-city in America and see this happening.

At the WCF9, Robert Knight spoke on how the sexualization of America from the left creates the conditions which help liberal policies thrive, aka socialism. “More sexual chaos spurs more government need to pick up the pieces,” Robert says. Socialists, however, don’t view the failures of other countries’ socialist efforts as noteworthy; they only look at the minor flaws in capitalism and ignore the tremendous good which results from it.

Jennifer Roback Morse was another speaker at the WCF9. She has been a frequent guest on the What’s UP Radio Program in the past. Listen in as Robert discusses Jennifer’s speech at the WCF9 where she described the three most often repeated lies from the left: 1) sex has nothing to do with babies; 2) marriage has nothing to do with sex; and 3) men and women are interchangeable. But has the sexual revolution run its course? What does the future look like through the eyes of Robert Knight?

Title: The State of Marriage and the Family
Topic: Marriage and the Family
Discussed by Dr. Patrick Fagan
with Marripedia www.marripedia.org

Part 1 of 2

We’ve gone from courting, dating, graduating from college, becoming engaged, getting married, and then children to meeting someone, having sex, getting pregnant but not married, then moving on to someone else. Young people these days don’t value marriage the same way we do or like our parents did.

Are we rewarding bad behavior? Out of wedlock births are on the rise, and climbing every year. The same goes for the divorce rate. Dr. Patrick Fagan, with the Family Research Council’s Marriage and Religion Research Institute (found [here] ), reports that 54% of kids do not live with both of their biological parents.

MARRI has issued its 7th annual “Index of Family Belonging and Rejection” report. Dr. Fagan discusses some of the differences between black, Hispanic, Asian, and white families in all areas of country. Why have the family structures changed so drastically since the 1950’s? Is society to blame? Government? There are more black men in prison now than there were half a century ago. Where were there fathers? Were they absent, too?

Listen in as Dr. Fagan gives more details and reveals the one group of people who are actually holding the country together.

Title: Part 2 of 2 - The State of Marriage and the Family
Topic: Marriage and the Family
Discussed by Dr. Patrick Fagan
with Marripedia www.marripedia.org

Dr. Fagan poses this convicting question: “If our churches are not teaching teens the consequences, why should the government?” Ouch! Slap in the face! Unless our pastors really preach the Word and tell the truth about the life-long consequences of pre-marital sex, there is little hope that our country will change.

As a group, the majority of children raised in a single-parent family or without their biological parents have less chance of succeeding in life. Many do not graduate. Most do not attend/graduate college. Most females become pregnant out of wedlock. Many males turn to a life of crime. Of course, there are always exceptions to this, but this cycle just repeats generation after generation.

The breakup of the family boils down to lack of knowledge about sex, according to Dr. Fagan. Society has just twisted the sacred significance of sex to something flippant and meaningless. Even many Christians see nothing wrong with living together before marriage.

If we reward marriage instead of single-parenting, what would happen? Would more couples actually stay together to raise their kids instead of running to divorce court at the first sign of a struggle? Should we require people to have a job, even part-time, in order to qualify for welfare? This worked in the past – it can work again! But the liberals will never allow any positive changes because they want to be reelected!

Title: Welfare is Corrupting the Institute of Marriage
Topic: Marriage and the Family
Discussed by Robert Rector
with The Heritage Foundation (www.Heritage.org)

Part 1 of 2

Has the War on Poverty become the War on the Family? We reward those who don’t get married. We reward those without a job. We reward those whose spouses or parents of their children are incarcerated.

Robert Rector has been studying poverty and the break-up of the family for nearly three decades and is a leading authority on the subject. Robert says, “Marriage is dead in nearly half the population… When Johnson launched his War on Poverty, only six percent of children were born out of wedlock. Today, that number has risen to 75-80% in low-income areas.” Race doesn’t matter. Marriage is being wiped out across the board by the Welfare State.

Listen in as Robert offers some insight on what must be done to deter young girls from having sex and having babies out of wedlock.

FACT: Last year alone, the US government spent $920 billion on 80 different anti-poverty programs. $920 BILLION.

Topic: Marriage and the Family
Discussed by Robert Rector
with The Heritage Foundation (www.Heritage.org)

Our government continues to reward those on welfare with free this and free that. There is zero incentive to get married. There is zero incentive to graduate from high school and go on to college. There is zero incentive to find a job.

Robert Rector continues to discuss raising children in a single-parent household as compared to a two-parent household. Not only will children with two parents do better in school, they are less likely to experiment with drugs and alcohol; girls are less likely to become pregnant out of wedlock; boys are less likely to commit crime and become incarcerated; they are more likely go to college and get a good-paying job.

One way to reduce the amount of money being wasted every year on anti-poverty programs is to clean up fraud within the IRS, specifically the Earned Income Tax Credit. Listen in as Robert explains, that while the EITC does help single moms, it harms married couples more. Fraud, however, within the system is rampant and getting more out of control every year.

Title: Faulty Ideas about Marriage
Topic: Marriage and the Family
Discussed by Phyllis Schlafly
with Eagle Forum (www.eagleforum.org)

Karl Marx was in love with the idea of traditional families. He only wanted the BEST for traditional families. He thought traditional families were the next best thing after peanut butter.

NOT!! Communism is sustained by the people’s need for the government for all aspects of life – jobs, food, shelter, etc. Karl Marx saw the traditional family as the ultimate stumbling block to the success of communism. A man married to a woman raising children typically did not rely on the government for support; therefore he sought to destroy the family.

Phyllis Schlafly, President of Eagle Forum, is back to give us an update on the left’s idea of marriage and what they want to FORCE all of us to support and defend. The left not only wants to legalize gay marriage nationwide, they are hell-bent on destroying the traditional family all-together. Sound familiar?

Progressives. Democrats. Communists. Are they one-in-the-same? What about Modern Libertarians? Where do they stand in all of this mess?

Listen in to hear Phyllis’s opinion and how she believes we can protect the traditional family for generations to come.

Title: All You Need is Love and Other Lies About Marriage
Topic: Marriage and the Family
Discussed by Dr. John Jacobs
with Author

In ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE AND OTHER LIES ABOUT MARRIAGE, Dr. Jacobs shows loving couples how to make their relationships stronger by accepting and living certain truths. Among them: romantic love is insufficient to sustain an intimate relationship; change is always possible - even small, unilateral change can produce big results; your family of origin always influences your marriage; egalitarian marriages are fraught with confusion over gender-role expectations; your children are a serious threat to your marriage; sex is more frustrating now that sexy media images share your bedroom.

Title: All You Need is Love and Other Lies About Marriage
Topic: Marriage and the Family
Discussed by Dr. John Jacobs
with Author

"Marital unhappiness, dissatisfaction, and divorce are part of the fabric of modern life", states veteran marriage counselor John W. Jacobs, M.D. A psychiatrist who has worked with hundreds of couples over the last three decades, Dr. Jacobs knows just how fragile the bond of marriage is and how difficult preserving it can be. Still, he firmly believes most couples can create and maintain a mutually satisfying, deeply loving relationship - but only with hard work, diligence, and a reality check every once in a while. In ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE AND OTHER LIES ABOUT MARRIAGE, Dr. Jacobs presents a radically truthful approach to making a marriage work and last. Based on his clinical experience and extensive research, Dr. Jacobs reveals how a sweeping cultural transformation has encouraged men and women to subscribe to what he calls the "seven lies of marriage".
