If you want to know what Christians think about marriage and family don't pay attention to their marriages or their families. Listen to what they have to say about Adam and Eve's proto-marriage and their family.
Many have expressed the view that Adam was a wuss because he did not abandon his family after his "wife" ate the fruit of the tree. .
There is built into the fundamentals of Christian practical theology a mindset that the family is not important to fight for -- that it should be abandoned on the first provocation. .
If we really want to heal our families we need to get our story on Adam and Eve right.
