    VICTORY: Gay ‘marriage’ is not a right, can be banned, N. Ireland court rules

    BELFAST, Northern Ireland, August 18, 2017 (LifeSiteNews) – Northern Ireland's prohibition of gay “marriage” does not violate same-sex couples’ rights, Belfast’s high court ruled Thursday.

    The court dismissed two cases challenging the ban, delivering a setback to gay “marriage” advocates in the only part of the United Kingdom still upholding a ban.

    Barring same-sex “marriage” in Northern Ireland does not contravene human rights, the judge ruled, "because that right does not exist."
