When you see an image, or an actual photo, of an American family such as the one above, what comes into your mind about the 5 people in this image? For me, being raised in a church-going family and part of the Christian religion, I used to look at images, photos, or actual groups of people resembling this illustration in public, and conclude that this was a "good Christian family" who all go to church together every Sunday. I would just assume that the adult man and woman in this photo were married and that the children with them were born to them after they were married. If it was an "ideal" Christian family, they would not have been previously married to anyone else, and would have been married as virgins because they were "good Christians" who saved themselves until God brought them the "perfect" husband or wife. However, I am older and wiser now, and when I see an image like this, or a group of people in public like this, I no longer imagine the same kind of things about these people in this "family" that I used to think. It would look more like the image below, with commentary about who each person in this graphic is more likely to be. And while some may want to say and believe that everything written in this graphic below is likely to be rare when one sees such actual "family units" in public or in photos, I am quite confident to say that the way I now see such "family" units as in the image below with the sample bios, is far more common than the false, storybook "ideal" Christian family that is portrayed by our culture. In fact the culturally-defined "Christian Family" concept is a myth, and is found nowhere in the Bible.
