One’s faith and family have traditionally defined one’s identity, but as our culture changes, both family size and the number of practicing christians are shrinking in the western world. Renowned Ethics and Policy analyst Mary Eberstadt thoughtfully explores the link between the decline in family size and the decline of religious fervor. She persuasively argues that families and religion need each other in order to remain healthy and create a new generation to carry on their identity. As she puts it, they are the double helix of society, each dependent on the strength of the other for successful reproduction. This is a fascinating, well thought-out read.
