MERGED: Gay Marriage in the Philippines

[kennan]

---

As a Filipino we are known to be a religious folks, we do everything to preserve our culture and traditions, but if we let this kind of thing to happen. Then it's a big insult to us.. Just get married outside our country not in here..

I strongly agree on you kennan! Don't destroy our bad image hihi

i think most of the gays and lesbians just wanna be accepted by society and have the same rights and benefits as straight couples do. a civil wedding would be fine really. or a law that allows us to have the same rights. unfair man gud permi ang law or maski treatment lang as a fellow human being ba.

i think civil wedding would be enough for them.. just dont push it to the extent na maabot na sa church wedding.. insult napud kaau nah.. i think adam and eve kay man and woman.. dili man pud tingali to sila gay or lesbian diba?

nindot unta mutuo sa arguments sa mga anti-gay marriage.

My question is. Up to what extent of righteousness are we advocating here? Is this specific to just Gay Marriage only? I know I know..we will always say, its On Topic, so all arguments we throw in must be related to the Thread Title. So if I ask..how righteous have we become as people that we are very sure in declaring that Gay Marriage is totally against standards of Christian or Religious morality as if there arent countless of unrighteous acts we do as people aside from gay Marriage? Im sure, our answer would be - We are only talking about Gay Marriage, not in general righteousness.

So, what credibility do we have to point our fingers to marrying Gay people to be "wrong"? When we say with conviction which I notice on some posts in this thread, that gay Marriage is wrong mostly in the Morality standpoint, do we expect our audience to just take our words without considering credibility? Who's to say here that a gay guy marrying another gay guy is any different from practicing pre-marital *** in terms of whats right and whats wrong? If we heartliy declare our advocacy as being against gay marriage because it is wrong, its like, we are saying that we were never wrong in anything and everything that we do.

A gay guy marrying another gay guy maybe wrong, and so? who hasnt done any wrong anyway? Their wrong is the same wrong that we all do within our own selves. So as for me...Whether its wrong or not, none has the right to make judgements.

And..usa pa,.nagsulti ra ta ug wrong siya based on our paniniwala..
eh,yung paniniwala ng iba? I think its selfishness nga ato ginabuhat..
Give these people freedom...

Korek jud imu gisulte UP.
Why make it another issue,when in fact nga daghan man gani kaayu isyu nga wa masulbad..
Tell me,if kanang morality nato karun nagdraw na ug circle,do you believe that circle would be that of the same size in the future..

Yeah,yeah,we need to value gyud kanang moralidad na ila giingon..
but,hey,are you really sure na kanang imuha "RIGHT" nga pagtuo, mao najud na ang tinuod?

PRO GAY MARRIAGE
lets make gay people happy..they deserve it.

The stand here was about the CHURCH being against the RITES because it is insulting ont he part since MARRIAGE is very SACRED .

WHy would you end yup with MORALITY and comparing others when in fact as Christians , we also know that PRE MARITAL S3X is also wrong ?

HOMOSOXUALS can be free as they can be . Get married in civil courts , have s3x of the same gender etc but who really cares ? But the moment they partake on the SACRAMENT of the MATRIMONY , that is a different story . Ipang lansang gyud na sila kuros BRAD .

Before you make a comment , please involved yourself in finding out the issue not only about SAME S3X MARRIAGE but also to why the thread existed , who the characters are and what they are up to . Imohang statements are very general in nature .

I thought were here to support stands with our own and what have we's. I was hoping that what you have been posting is your own stand about the thread.

WHy would you end yup with MORALITY and comparing others when in fact as Christians , we also know that PRE MARITAL S3X is also wrong ? << y not? its been mentioned many times here. youre not getting my point. Im saying - if you say gay marriage is against the teachings of your church and is totally a disgrace to your Sacrament of Matrimony, whats your credibility to declare that? how do you expect people to accept that?

Before you make a comment , please involved yourself in finding out the issue not only about SAME S3X MARRIAGE but also to why the thread existed , who the characters are and what they are up to . Imohang statements are very general in nature << I think the reason why the thread exists is for people like us to post our views and opinions, not to re echo what your church is saying. If this thread was meant for people to just either say the same what your church is saying or not oppose it at all, then this thread dont make any sense at all. Yes, Im being general with my comment because its what I feel that could make people liek you wake up that - their wrong is theirs, and your wrong is yours, unless you havent done anything wrong at all for you to say nga ipanglansang silas krus. Youre way too righteous to say that brad. biliba naku.
