"Uphold Our Rights, But No One Else's"

Dashing in white.  So pretty.
The Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) is at it again.  They never cease to amaze.

In typical style, the CBCP is busy panicking over the prospect of all Filipinos being treated with equality.

Senate Bill 2814, the "Act Prohibiting Discrimination, Profiling, Violence and All Forms of Intolerance Against persons based on ethnicity, race, religion, belief, sex, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, language, disability, or other status," is making the bishops grip their rosaries even more tightly than usual these days.  Their fear is that, if it passes, SB 2814 will open the Philippines up to same-sex marriage.  Oh how they love to push those religious fear buttons!
