Highest Court in France Upholds Traditional Marriage
Conclusion: "To affirm and protect children's rights and the primacy of those rights over adults' aspirations."

LifeSiteNews reports that France's highest court has upheld the decision of a lower court and rejected the 2004 'marriage' of two homosexual men. The court declared the marriage annulled: "Under French law, marriage is a union between a man and a woman."

According to the report, the results of a year-long commission called Information Mission, to investigate where, if at all, French law should be updated to better protect the rights of children and to reflect changes in the French family, released its final report arguing due to the procreative nature of marriage, natural marriage must be preserved.

"This corresponds to a biological reality, that same-sex couples are naturally infertile, and to an imperative, that of helping the child develop his/her identity as necessarily coming from the union of a man and a woman," the report stated.

The commission concluded that their ultimate decision was to advise against gay marriage and adoption was "to affirm and protect children's rights and the primacy of those rights over adults' aspirations."
