Some countries or state have been accepting this kind of marriage. Here in the Philippines, we do not recognize it as legal or something like that. How about in your country?
In Philippines the political influence of catholic church was built throughout our history where priest runs the community, their voice is very powerful and we raised from the word of God that they believe in. So as for controversial issues like this religious groups opposing it directly and politicians are afraid to take a stand against it because they know the influence of church in our society. But if we look at Latin America they are some country that legalized same sex marriage like Argentina, Brazil and Colombia we all know that majority of Latin America were Catholic. While Islamic region also opposed on this matter. As a believer I'm not infavor in same sex marriage but it doesn't mean that I'm against on LGBT's rights, I also have a close friend that belong to LGBT and I respected her/him. Kindly respect my opinion.
