Leading pro-life group launches campaign against gay marriage |
---|
London, 3 January 2012: A leading pro-life group has launched a campaign against the Westminster government's proposals for same-sex marriage. The Society for the Protection of Unborn Children (SPUC) www.spuc.org.uk has today published a position paper on same-sex marriage http://goo.gl/NshB6 following a resolution by SPUC's Council last month. SPUC has also made available today a background paper http://goo.gl/GpUOD to be read in conjunction with the position paper and which provides some additional references and reflections. SPUC is the world's oldest pro-life lobbying and educational organisation, founded in 1967. SPUC states that:
John Smeaton, SPUC's director, commented: "We can't build a true culture of life if we don't defend the truths which connect sexuality to human life. Homosexual unions, whether the existing civil partnerships or the proposed gay marriages, are radically disconnected from those truths. SPUC's Council, elected by SPUC's grassroots volunteers, has therefore resolved to defend human life by defending marriage from the government's proposed redefinition to include homosexual couples." SPUC's communications department can be contacted on 07939 177683 or 020 7820 3129 or news@spuc.org.uk |

Were there to be no support in the whole history of ethical and moral thought, were there no acknowledged confirmation from medical science, were the history of legal opinion to the contrary, we would still have to conclude on the basis of God's Holy Word that the unborn child is a person in the sight of God. He is protected by the sanctity of life graciously given to each individual by the Creator, Who alone places His image upon man and grants them any right to life which they have.
