How conservatives share the same bed with fascists
On October 21, Pope Francis declared in no uncertain terms his support for civil unions for same-sex couples. It was a landmark declaration for the Roman Catholic Church, which has traditionally viewed homosexuality as sinful.
Many Filipinos welcomed the Pope’s show of support. Others were not as pleased. Followers of Conservative Philippines, a page managed by Cebuano blogger JP Abecilla, said that the Pope ran counter to Church teaching. Abecilla would make his own opinions known over the next few months on issues such as Manila Mayor Isko Moreno’s SOGIE ordinance and the SOGIE Equality Bill currently on the Senate floor.
