Same Sex Marriage also known as gay marriage or equal marriage it is marriage between two persons of the same biological sex or gender identity. In the 20th and 21st centuries various types of same-sex unions have come to be legalized. Same-sex marriage is currently legal in eight European countries: Belgium, Denmark, Iceland, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, and Sweden; Luxembourg, Finland, France and the United Kingdom are currently in the process of legalization. Politicians in the United Kingdom have expressed their intention to promote legislation to allow same-sex marriage. Other types of recognition for same-sex unions are as of 2012 legal in the following European countries: Andorra, Austria, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Isle of Man, Jersey, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Slovenia, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Many people have their own beliefs and reasoning's when it comes to Gay/Lesbian Marriage. God made a man and woman to join hands together and say vows in the right way but however in some states it is a legal to get married with your same sex. So, a man is for woman and woman is for man.
Three reasons why other person wants to legal the same sex marriage: First is, they have said all have a sin nature, with weaknesses to sin in particular ways and some people express their sin nature is one way, other people express theirs in other ways. Homosexuality is just one way in a fair and balanced way. Secondly, Marriage is a basic human right and an individual personal choice and the State should not interfere with same-gender couples who choose to marry. Thirdly, ending discrimination enhances the human spirit and makes all our lives better.
To refute these three reasons why sex marriage should be legal I would say that the truth is even though all of us have a sinful nature it does not mean we will take advantage of the grace of God. We made by God to glorify Him and to do of His will not to do what we wanted because more of the time what we wanted are not suppose to do. Also, the Pro says that they have the right to be married. Yes, it is right that marriage is a personal choice but it does not mean that you are able to be married with your same sex and not considering the laws of God about marriage because it is the Sacraments of Matrimony so it is sacred and Holy. The next one is they have said that it is a discrimination part to them if it will not be allowed but not legalizing the same sex marriage proposal does not mean gays and lesbian are being discriminated it is just their decision is not acceptable with God and also in the Christian country like Philippines that’s why same sex marriage in the Philippines cannot be approved or be legalized in our country. In addition, there are four other reasons why it should not be legalized in the Philippines. First, because Gay/Lesbian marriage violates traditions; Secondly, Gay/Lesbian couples can't produce children; thirdly, having a mom and a dad is better for children than having two moms or two dads and the last one is homosexual behavior is immoral and should not be encouraged.
Same Sex Marriage is marriages compose of either same man or same woman. There are three reasons why they have wanted Same Sex Marriage will be legal in the Philippines.
First, all have sinned so it is their way to commit it; Secondly, Marriage is a civil liberty; thirdly, to end distinction and to have freedom. It should not be legal because of three reasons; first, we should follow God because He is our Creator; secondly, choosing your partner in life should consider God’s will; thirdly, you can have freedom but you should understand that it has limitations, discipline and responsibilities. In addition, there are other reasons why it should not be allowed: it is a violation to our traditions; partners are not able to have a child except if they will adopt a child and lastly it is debauched so it should be prohibited in the Law.
