Australian ‘PM defends stalling on same-sex marriage’

Tony Abbot

Unlike the USA and the rest of its Anglo-Saxon descended allies, Australia has thus far refused to recognize homosexual marriage:

12 August 2015

Prime Minister Tony Abbott accepts people may be disappointed over the coalition’s decision to reject a free vote on same-sex marriage but says the government has to keep faith with the public.

‘There is the prospect of change in the next parliament if that is the will of the Australian people,’ Mr Abbott told ABC radio, referring to a proposal for a national plebiscite.

The prime minister said it was only the current generation that had thought of gay marriage so ‘why not give it to the people?’

The prime minister recalled university debates with gay friends.

‘The idea that the gay community would in those days have wanted to embrace a bourgeois institute like marriage would have been unthinkable,’ Mr Abbott said, acknowledging that times change.

Mr Abbott said backbenchers were entitled to vote whichever way they wished.

But he would be disappointed if they went against the party position.

However, ministers would have to resign if they followed their conscience.

‘We will not be attempting to bind anyone beyond the life of this parliament,’ he said. http://www.skynews.com.au/news/top-stories/2015/08/12/abbott-to-put-gay-marriage-to-the-people.html#sthash.IQMEofcF.dpuf

So, for the time being, Australia has not decided to legalize an abomination. But I would not hold my breathe as there are indications that it will following the repulsive trend that has affected many nations.

Homosexual acts are clearly prohibited in the Bible:

22 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination. (Leviticus 18:22)

13 If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. (Leviticus 20:13)

Those who try to claim that the Bible does not clearly condemn homosexuality are intentionally misreading what it actually teaches. The Bible prohibits and condemns homosexual behavior–the Bible calls it an abomination!

The Bible never sanctions anything that could be considered as ‘same-sex’ marriage.

It is good that Australia has not accepted it. But, it is likely it will bow to pressure and some day ‘legalize’ the abominable as many other nations have done.
