By Sheryl Collmer, Crisis Magazine - I wonder now if moral instability is at the root of all gross sentimentality. Joan Langleys count on emotion to avoid conscience. Sentimentality allows one to live in a universe of one’s own devising rather than the hard, sharp, demanding world of reality... Sentimentalists want everyone to marry whomever they want, in any combination or permutation, or even in groups or outside the human realm. Realists consider the hygienic and genetic hazards of some sexual pairings, the absolute rejection of Scripture, the resulting chaos of society, and the torpedoing of stable two-parent homes with resulting damage to children’s well-being.
