FILIPINOS FOR LIFE OFFICIAL STATEMENT ON THE SCOTUS’ DECISION ON SAME SEX “MARRIAGE”

Because it seems common sense is a rarity nowadays, statements like these are needed.

truthsayer73's avatarFilipinos for Life

We, the members of Filipinos for Life, express our dismay at the recent decision of the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) to legalize same-sex “marriage”. We believe that SCOTUS acted outside the bounds of its authority in redefining the meaning of an institution which has been understood, from the beginning of human civilization, as the union between a man and a woman. This lamentable decision, which has no historical, traditional, cultural, or natural foundations, is based on an irrational sentimentality and a misplaced sense of compassion that fails to consider the future of the biological family, whose nature stems from the complementarity between man and woman. This radical departure from natural law introduces other forms of relationships, could deprive children of their right to their biological mother and father, and will ultimately be detrimental to the stability of economy and society. Moreover, it tramples on the right of…

Children as Collateral Damage

“As SSM becomes more common, the consequent physical and psychological effects on children and the vulnerability of the unborn will become more apparent.”

dboncan's avatarTheStrugglingDad

The SCOTUS decision legalizing same sex marriage is a diabolical attack against families and children, here’s why:

1. Once SS couples are given legal recognition to marry, many owners of businesses and institutions who will refuse to cater to SSM couples, on grounds of religious belief, can be hauled off to court, be meted out heavy fines and even lose their respective sources of income. This will affect the well-being of their respective families because it creates financial instability at home and when there is financial instability, children are the first to suffer. It has already happened in some states and is expected to get worse as more homosexual couples demand for these services.

2. The rise in homosexuals getting married will also spurn an increase in (underground) surrogate pregnancies that will cater to homosexual couples wanting their own children rather than adopting. SSM couples will choose, based on sperm and…

An open response to Taylor Swift’s rant against Apple

Hypocrites suck. Don’t be one.

Dear Taylor Swift,

I have read your open letter to Apple where you give your reasons for refusing to allow your album ‘1989′ to be included on their forthcoming Apple Music streaming service.  

(For reference: http://taylorswift.tumblr.com/post/122071902085/to-apple-love-taylor)

I applaud it. It’s great to have someone with a huge following standing up for the rights of creative people and making a stand against the corporate behemoths who have so much power they can make or break someone’s career.

#OCSB . Pope Francis condemns “ideological colonization” (eg Ontario Sex ed) in schools

“The Ontario curriculum is full of ideological colonization that many good Catholics (and Muslims and Sikhs and Evangelicals and Hindus etc) CANNOT accept.”

First, let’s review what the Pope means by “ideological colonization”. He has used it several times over the last year and he always means LGBTQ agenda and “gender theory”

Here is but one example: In the Phillipines:

hhttp://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/kids-in-poor-countries-suffer-when-west-pushes-sex-agenda-pope-says-71803/

“The Pope referred to the imposition of foreign ideas into a culture as “ideological colonization,” adding that it is sometimes tied to financial assistance.

“I’ll give just one example that I saw myself,” he said to journalists on the flight. He recounted the case of a public service officer who sought loans in order to be able to build schools for the poor two decades ago.

She received the money, he said, on the condition that she insert a “well prepared” book into the curriculum to teach gender theory.”

Now, the Pope again condemns ideological colonization and sex ed in the school system in Rome:

Fearfully and Wonderfully Made

From the article: “The more we reject sin and the more we strive to be wonderful, the more we become our true selves!”

Mary Kimball's avatarModesty Honors Beauty

fearfully and wonderfully“I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” Psalm 139: 14. This verse confused me for years, but now it’s one of my favorites. I couldn’t comprehend what it meant to be “fearfully made”. How can someone be fearfully made? It’s not like God is fearful when making us, is He? I can’t really imagine God trembling as He knits us together in our mothers’ wombs, but maybe He knows we’re going to mess up and that makes Him nervous? That never seemed entirely plausible. Another theory of mine was that we were made to be in fear. Could that be true? Aren’t we made to stand in the face of injustice, at the gates of Hell and speak the truth? That doesn’t sound like it involves being fearful; it sounds more as if we are meant to be courageous. I…
