MERGED: Gay Marriage in the Philippines

[Elyu]

---

sobra na man gyud kung ipakasal pa, i think being gay or in a gay-gay relationship etc is enough. in other countries they dont tolerate gays.

You mean countries like Uganda...
BBC: World's worst place to be gay

Gay people are treated like criminals, sent death threats and ostracized from society, Homophobia at its worst.

Because gay people are icky and icky things shouldn't be allowed to exist. That's why they banned vomit and phlegm.

And because gay people aren't really human, so next we will have to allow a man to marry his dog.

And because there are laws saying everyone of the same gender is first descendant relatives, so next we will have to allow family members the right to get married. Because the minute we allowed a man and woman to get married, a mother and her son decided it was the same thing for them.

Because marriage is sacred and only allowed among Christians, that's why Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Atheists, Pagans, Wiccans and any other religion are not allowed to marry.

Because marriage should promote reproduction, that's why infertile couples and elderly are not allowed to marry. (Oh, wait, you said I couldn't use that argument.)

And finally, because allowing two people who have spent their lives together, are committed and monogamous and love each other will effect the heterosexual couples. It will bring down their divorce rate to below 50 percent.

why nga kinahanglan man jud mg pakasal na pwede raman mg live in.... nya ug mahitabo na pwede na pakasal later after pila ka years mu reklamo napud dayun ganahan napud mg pa divorce...

I don't see anything wrong with this. If you really think God finds their union an abomination, then let God punish them himself. Stay out of it kay they're doing nothing wrong to you. So long as they pay their taxes ug dili mamwerwisyo sa ubang tao, then I don't really care what they do with their personal/sexual/love life.

Besides, wala man ni civil effect ila marriage kay di man gihapon i-recognize sa state. They're just exercising their freedom of religion, kay sa ila ra man pud ning kaugalingon simbahan, wa may labot ang Catholic Church ani.

Definitely so wrong!!! God never made Adam & Steve or Amy & Eve... God created Adam & Eve... opposite ***.. one of the purpose of marriage is to start a family... how can u have kids if you are same ***...yes, adoption but it is not the same... it is still not your kids... and mind you i think same *** marriage is another pervert idea of Satan...

Who do you think deserves God's wrath more? Gay people or homophobic bigots?

neither....God loves all of us, good or bad...but we don't stop at that. We respond to that love by obeying His commandments. He made us very simple but it seems we've made ourselves very complicated.

A nation will be judged by God as a whole. If people do not know that - better start reading the Bible.

That's why we have to make an open rebuke to these things - unless we want God's wrath to come.

mao jud.... basta kay mao sa uban, hala sundog nalang sad ta...double standard naman ning atong society karon, ang sayop sauna, gitolerate na karon...saon nalang..

So the reason you're for or against something is because you're scared of your god's wrath? Why don't you instead base your decisions on following laws or rules because it's sensible, rational, promotes tolerance and therefore good for the society?

Read the bible, alrighty then:



Guess, guess..

i don't mind if i can't get married in a church with my girlfriend, but i am for gay unions so that us gays/lesbians can have equal rights and benefits as straight couples do i.e proper medical treatment, tax exemptions, easy adoption of kids, etc.
