Philippine Church Stands Firm Against Gay Marriage by Obascoetubi: 10:53am On Jun 28, 2015
The leadership of the
Philippines’ dominant Roman
Catholic church stressed its
opposition to legalising gay
marriage on Sunday despite
last week’s landmark decision
by the US Supreme Court.
The Philippine government
meanwhile affirmed that
under its law, marriage is still
between a man and a woman
and only an act of Congress
can change this, unlike in the
United States.
“The Church continues to
maintain what it has always
taught. Marriage is a
permanent union of man and
woman,” said Archbishop
Socrates Villegas, the
president of the influential
Catholic Bishops Conference
of the Philippines.
“This is the way the Church
has always read Sacred
Scriptures. This is the way it
has lived its faith, inspired by
the Holy Spirit,” Villegas said
in a statement on the group’s
website.
“We will continue to teach the
sons and daughters of the
Church that marriage… is an
indissoluble bond of man and
woman,” he stressed.

So because they have poverty and over-population,they should condone homo-sexualism?
This absurd thinking of yours(and your like) is very pitiable. Two wrongs never make right.
