snoop1130 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Members of the LGBT community take part in the Metro Manila Pride March at the Cultural Center of the Philippines grounds in Pasay, Metro Manila on June 25, 2022. AFP / Jam Sta. Rosa MANILA, Philippines — A lawmaker in the House of Representatives has filed a bill "recognizing, defining and protecting the rights of heterosexuals" allowing them to publicly express biblical views on the LGBTQ community. In filing House Bill No. 5717, evangelical pastor Rep. Benny Abante (Manila, 6th District) pushes for the State to protect heterosexuals or straight people's right to freely practice their religion and express their views, particularly opinions concerning the LGBT community. From the get-go, Abante begins his explanatory note arguing that "God created man in his own image and created male and female only and gave the decree of procreation to a male and female only, [and] it is clear that God created only two genders." He went on to call the LGBTQ community a "detestable reality [that] was virtually unknown and unimaginable since time immemorial."
