GAY TRUTH

WESTMINSTER , July 16, 2013 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – The House of Lords passed the coalition government’s gay “marriage” bill last night without a formal vote. The bill will now make a brief stop this evening in the House of Commons for approval of the Peers’ amendments, after which it is expected to receive Royal Assent by the end of the week. Once made law, homosexual partners will be able to “marry” throughout England and Wales by mid-2014. Similar legislation in Scotland is expected to pass easily. Amendments passed in the House of Lords focused on minor points of law regarding occupational pension benefits and the application of the bill to Jewish Synagogues. During the debate, Patrick Thomas Cormack , Baron Cormack, addressed the victors. “I understand that you feel euphoric today but please have a thought for those who have different views and for the many, not just thousands but millions of people in this country, for whom marriage will always be equated with what remain...

Despite all government insistence to the contrary, those who publicly object to gay “marriage” in Scotland could be facing lawsuits or even prosecutions, a group of legal experts has warned. The  Faculty of Advocates  has cautioned the Scottish government that their plans to redefine marriage will result in serious threats to freedom of expression. Combined with the 2010 Equality Act, the draft law will create “conflict” between those who in conscience disagree with the concept of same-sex “marriage” and “public authorities,” who will be “required to promote same-sex marriage,” the Faculty said  in their submission  on the bill’s public consultation. Freedom of speech to object to redefining marriage would be offered only to religious ministers under the bill, but the Faculty of Advocates have pointed out that this is a right that belongs to all citizens. Citing the case of Lillian Ladele , who recently  lost her last appeal  to the European...

Marriage campaigners in Britain have vowed to keep fighting the government ’s plans to install same-sex “marriage,” despite today’s vote in which an overwhelming majority of members of the House of Lords supported sending the bill on to the next stage.  Although observers on both sides of the issue had predicted a close vote, the Peers tonight voted 390 – 148 in favor. The bill will now go on to the committee phase and possible amendments before a final vote in the Lords. House of Lords Paul Tully, General Secretary of the Society for the Protection of Unborn Children , said that his organization is continuing the fight against the bill.  “ Redefining marriage in law as a genderless institution unconnected with child-bearing will strip marriage of its identity,” Tully said. “Whatever the fate of the government's bill, we must continue to fight to preserve the protection real marriage gives to children, both born and unborn.”  The first vote on a piece of...

OTTAWA, Ontario, March 18, 2013 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – A controversial bill that would add “gender identity” and “ gender expression ” to Canada ’s Human Rights Act and Criminal Code will face the vote in the House of Commons this Wednesday.  Critics say that if passed, Bill C-279 will effectively abolish society's understanding of male and female.  The preamble to the bill states: “ Gender Identity means, in respect of an individual, the individual’s deeply felt internal and individual experience of gender, which may or may not correspond with the sex that the individual was assigned at birth."  Campaign Life Coalition has  slammed  the bill’s definition of gender as purely subjective. “It is an ideological, and non-scientific definition that would abolish society's understanding of male and female, transforming it from an objective, physical reality, to a creation of our minds that can change from one day to the next,” the group stated.
