For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh. – Genesis 2:24 & Matthew 19:5
As for you, be fruitful and increase in number; multiply on the earth and increase upon it. – Genesis 9:7
First Principle: A man and a woman have an inherent moral freedom to marry, to procreate, and to direct and control the upbringing of their children.
The moral and legal underpinnings of the unalienable right of a man and woman to marry, procreate, and direct the upbringing of their children are embedded in deeply rooted divine, natural, and common law traditions. These timeless moral truths articulate inviolable, objective standards or reference points that all government actions must respect.
