Homosexual Marriage Is Not A Human Right, World Court Rules by mr1759: 8:56am On Nov 09, 2017
The World Court of Human Rights has
unanimously ruled that there is no such thing as
“right to homosexual marriage.”
Daily Independent newspaper reports that the
proclamation was contained in a statement
signed by 47 judges of the 47 countries of the
Council of Europe that make up the full Court of
Strasbourg.
The proclamation was based on a myriad of
philosophical and anthropological considerations
based on natural order, common sense,
scientific reports and positive law.
In this historic resolution, the Court held that
the concept of family not only contemplates
“the traditional concept of marriage, that is, the
union of a man and a woman”, but also that
they should not be imposed on governments to
“obligation to open marriage to persons of the
same sex.” As for the principle of non-discrimination, the
Court also added that there is no discrimination,
since “States are free to reserve marriage only
to heterosexual couples.”
The judgment was based on Article 12 of the
European Convention on Human Rights and is
equivalent to article 23 of the International
Covenant on Civil and Political Rights which
states that “The family is the natural and
fundamental group unit of society and is entitled
to protection by society and the State.”
Section two of the article states that “the right
of men and women of marriageable age to
marry and to found a family shall be
recognized.”
