Esolen: Ten Arguments for Sanity

I don’t know how many of our readers read mere comments, the blog for the admittedly sometimes annoying “ecumenical” Touchstone Magazine, so I fear many may have missed Anthony Esolen’s brilliant series of posts on what he calls ten “natural law” (i.e. not explicitly religious) arguments against homosexual “marriage.” Esolen is an English professor at Providence College, translator of Dante and Tasso, and while apparently not a Trad, his heart often seems to be in the right place concerning liturgical issues. Unfortunately, the posts are not conveniently collected together on one page, so you can find them as follows:


Ten Arguments for Sanity, 1-2

Ten Arguments for Sanity, 3-4

Ten Arguments for Sanity, 5-6

Ten Arguments for Sanity, 7-8

Ten Arguments for Sanity, 9-10
