Why did God institute the family? Is the system of father, mother, and offspring the best basic building block (love that alliteration) for a healthy society? Or is it a relic of a patriarchal past? That is the question, the one after, “Is the God who revealed himself in the bible real or is he a leftover of a more primitive past?” that most clearing defines what it means to be human and how we as humans are to organize ourselves to best fit in the world around us.

You have no doubt seen the picture of Mr. Biden’s Transportation Secretary and his fellow sodomite lounging on a hospital bed with the infants they had purchased to be their children. They are the secular ideal of the American family. And this is the family vision that Mr. Biden’s 3.5 trillion-dollar plan is designed to support. Virtually every feature of his “human infrastructure” plan is designed to undermine and subvert the family structure God instituted.

I know it is not a popular thought, but the family structure outlined in Genesis 3 & 4 is the one best suited to build healthy communities and societies. In the God-designed plan, husband and wife have distinct and complementary roles. The man is to labor to put food on the table, clothes on their backs, and a roof over their heads. The woman is to bear the next generation and to raise and nurture those children that they might become responsible adults carrying those roles for future generations. The man is not more important than the woman, nor the woman the man. Their roles, though different, fit together to make a perfect whole and form the basic building block for every system of family, clan, community, state, and nation.

So, what’s wrong with Mr. Biden’s plan? It replaces family with state. In the name of freeing women from the drudgery of raising children, the state will provide subsidized or free infant and childcare so the mother can enjoy the freedom of the office or the warehouse instead of the confinement of the home. Mr. Biden would replace the education of the young child at the feet of its mother for indoctrination by the state in pre-school or early childhood education. Instead of the child receiving and reflecting the teachings of its parents, it will reflect the state-approved principles and practices of a godless secularism.
The state giving a child payment sounds like a good idea, right? Who doesn’t was to see children clothed, fed, and housed! But where’s the father in this formula? Mr. Biden’s plan is designed to make fathers inconsequential at least, and unnecessary to the well-being of their women (I was going to say, “wives,” but marriage with all its responsibilities and pleasurable duties ceases to have value in this plan) and children. By replacing fathers as the primary providers for, and protectors of, their families, it makes men the equivalent of those males in the animal kingdom whose only function is to demonstrate their reproductive benefit by dominating the other males of their species, and to provide sperm to propagate the next generation. We have feral young men in our urban areas (and some rural ones as well) whose only function in life is to dominate through violence and to plant their seed in every receptive womb. They contribute nothing to the family system other than the occasional sperm and nothing to society other than mayhem and murder. But the Biden plan subsidizes this vision of society.

And then the part of Mr. Biden’s plan that “should” be near and dear to my heart: eldercare. Having made the state the primary provider of childcare instead of the family, his plan would make the care of the aged the responsibility of the state as well. Now this does a number of things. First and foremost, it tells adults that they do not need to marry and form families in order to have the time immemorial system where parents provide for their children while they are young, and the children provide for their parents when they are old. No, the state will replace parents for the young, and adult children for the old. Then it is also a great wealth transfer system. Instead of keeping resources at the most elemental level possible, in the family, the Biden scheme transfers wealth from the family to the eldercare industry. His scheme makes it advantageous to put the old into warehouses designed for the purpose and paying for it through taxation. The eldercare and medical industry then enrich the political hierarchy through political contributions and wealth transfers. (How many well-placed politicians leave office poorer than when they entered?) Ultimately it finalizes the breakup of the family by making the family unit subsidiary to the state instead of foundational to it. There is no need of family to support one another. This will all be done by the state, although admittedly, by the prevailing moral standard of the state. It will determine what support is appropriate and to whom it should be given.

Much has been said about the benefits the Biden scheme will confer upon “people of color.” Well, POCs only need the benefits because of the havoc previous Democrat schemes such as Mr. Johnson’s “Great Society” have done to the Black and Brown family. They, and every other family, would benefit far more from policies that reinforce the family of husband, wife, and children, than from policies that demolish the family and create an artificial, overarching state to replace it.

In the Mosaic Law there were instructions on how to deal with mildew infestations of the house. The first step was to thoroughly clean the infested area. If the mildew returned, the portions of the house that were contaminated were to be removed and replaced. Finally, if the restoration process was unsuccessful, the entire house was to be demolished and the rubble discarded away from human habitation. America is infested with progressive “mildew.” If it allowed to spread it will eventually take over the house and the only way to cleanse her of this disease will be to tear it down and build back better.

Today is a “Make Your Decision” day. We can allow Mr. Biden and his team in the Congress force policies upon us that guarantee our eventual decay, decline, and destruction, or we can tell him and his cohorts of chaos that, No, we will maintain the social order established by God and not replace it with the Frankenstein of their creation.

Long live the God-given family!
