Marshaling the Arguments for Marriage

Ryan Anderson, editor of the Witherspoon Institute’s Public Discourse and a fellow at the Heritage Foundation, has done yeoman service in providing an overview of some of the many arguments made by amici curiae in briefs submitted to the Supreme Court in its two upcoming marriage cases.  More than fifty such briefs have been filed, in defense of the constitutionality of California’s Proposition 8 and the federal Defense of Marriage Act.  Ryan has the first of a series of posts highlighting the arguments in these briefs here , at Heritage’s site.  I look forward to more installments.
