Are Natural Families important?

Bill Glass, a former professional football player with the Cleveland Browns did a tremendous amount of prison ministry and talks about a greeting card company that offered prisoners free mothers' day cards.  The idea was wildly successful s thousands of prisoners sent those cards.  The greeting card company thought this was so well received that they decided to do something for fathers' day.  Well.......guess how many of the prisoners sent their father a card?  Not one! No one prisoner asked for a card for their father.

Bill Glass then went on to state that "there may be a man in prison that doesn't hate his father, but I've yet to meet him."

Marketing to the seven areas of influence!

Our goal thru marketing to the seven areas of influence in this nation is to change the current social contract in America that are for the most part secular human in their form and origins - contracts that are purposely aimed at the destruction of the natural family.  Not the traditional, nor heaven forbid "Modern Family", but the family as designed by God and supported by nature.  

Seven areas of influence that control the social morals in our nation - 
Church 
Family
Businesses
Education
News Media
Entertainment
Politics

As you can see, there are many areas of influence affecting our society today.  We are interested in receiving your thoughts and experiences you may have from any of these areas of influence.  Please feel free to comment.

Does Society dictate morals or do morals determine society about the Natural Family?

When I was a child a family was one that had a mother and a father.  The father was the head of the household who set the rules for the children and carried out the discipline when necessary.  The mother stayed in the home caring, loving, and nurturing the children.  So, the next question presenting itself would be… Why has the family unit changed so radically in the last 40 years from mom mother /dad father  to two men, two women, boyfriend/girlfriend as the parents in the household?”  There is a social construct that varies from culture to culture and, overtime they say definition changes within a culture.  Why should this definition change?  How does it change?  Does society dictate morals or do morals determine society? 

Family….What is it?  In today’s society, one might categorize family as the traditional family.  Another may categorize family as the natural family.  Others’ may look at both terms and ask……what is the difference between the two?  Aren’t they both the same thing?  There may be some other ideas that rationalize what a family is; the modern family or nuclear family.  Some of us have ideas about family that are not natural though they try to say their feelings and emotions are natural.  These ideas clearly oppose natural order and when nature is out of order, it is a mutation or is infected. Words mean things and who controls the language matters.  

In finding the answer to the questions we must first determine what the best source to research is.    Let’s take a look at a couple of different sources for the answer.  Cambridge University defines “family” as a group of people who are related to each other, especially parents and children                ( http://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/essential-british-english/family ).  According to www.Reference.com  the definition of a traditional family is a social unit that consists of parents and children, whether living together or not.  And let’s look at this definition from https://workfamily.sas.upenn.edu/glossary/t/traditional-family-defitions Work and Family Researchers Network.  Their definition reads “the concept of the traditional family, that is, the ‘natural reproductive unit’ of mom, pop, and the children all living under one roof, is not an immutable one.  It is a social construct that varies from culture to culture and, over time, the definition changes within a culture” (Ball, 2002, p. 68).  Take notice of the word “immutable” in this definition, meaning the traditional family is unchangeable.  Yet, the definition further states the definition of a family changes within a culture.  Seems a bit contradictory, wouldn’t you agree?
