Bigamy, adultery, abortion, contraception, divorce and homosexuality are all threats to a holy union blessed by God.
Though some sins only violate secondary principles, others, as the sin of homosexuality does, violate natural law.
The principal finality of marriage is the procreation of children. Not that marriage only becomes valid when the couples have children. If this were so then we couldn't accept the validity of a wedding ceremony between two celibate individuals. Rather, forming a union with the intention to procreate children which gives its validity.
Being childless doesn't invalidate the finality of marriage since, according to nature, a man and a woman are still physically capable of conceiving, even if only by extreme prayers or a miracle from God. It is a question of accidental (something not essential to human nature) infertility.
Whereas a relationship between homosexuals are naturally and physically infertile.
