Why does the church do not allow same sex marriage? And why does the law allow same sex marriage?
- The Roman Catholic Church cannot bless same-sex marriages, no matter how stable or positive the couples' relationships are, the Vatican said on Monday.The message, approved by Pope Francis, came in response to questions about whether the church should reflect the increasing social and legal acceptance of same-sex unions.
If someone ask you about the legalization of the same sex marriage here in the Philippines, would you agree or not?
- Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte on Monday reversed a campaign promise to push for legalization of same-sex marriage. “That [same-sex marriage] won’t work for us. We’re Catholics,” he said in a speech before the Filipino community in Burma. “And there’s the Civil Code, which says that [a man] can only marry a woman.”
