April 2014 –A study funded by the Economic Research Council, on what makes couples happy in relationships revealed a clear picture of the anti-family, anti-Christian bias of modern culture. The study advised, “Don’t have children,” “If you do have children, don’t get married,” “Be in a same sex relationship,” “Be a woman 34 years old or younger,” and “Have some [prior long-term relationship] experience.” 

These claims were backed up with statements like, “Do what’s right for you, not what people tell you is right,” “Straight couples don’t put as much work into their relationship as gay couples,” and the key to a blissful relationship is “two people with great manners who make each other feel appreciated.”
