I second Michael S's recommendation

I was going to recommend that MOJ-readers read an op-ed, and then noticed that Michael S had already done so (here).  So let me just second Michael's recommendation.  The author of the op-ed, Leah Ward Sears, "stepped down this week as Chief Justice of the Georgia Supreme Court. In 1992, she became the first woman -- and youngest person -- appointed to Georgia's highest court."  And since we're talking about Georgia, where I now live (assuming that Atlanta is part of Georgia, which is not clear), let me add that Justice Sears is African American.

After reading the op-ed (here), consider this:  The emergence of same-sex marriage is no threat to the future of traditional marriage, but even if you disagree with me about that, our casual attitude toward divorce is (as Mary Ann Glendon once suggested to me) a much more serious threat--and yet we spend much less time and energy addressing *that* threat.  Why are our priorities so skewed?!
