Gays are born and live in all societies of the world. They are people of all ages, races and creeds. They are doctors, teachers, farmers, bakers, soldiers and athletes. And no matter whether we know it or not, are part of our family, our friends and neighbors. Being gay is not an invention of Western society, it is a human reality "- Hillary Clinton

 

"Los gays nacen y viven en todas las sociedades del mundo. Son personas de todas las edades, razas y credos. Son doctores, maestros, granjeros, panaderos, soldados y atletas. Y no importa si lo sabemos o no, son parte de nuestra familia, nuestros amigos o vecinos. Ser gay no es un invento de la sociedad occidental, es una realidad humana" - Hillary Clinton

Pope Benedict XVI: There have been times when 'it seemed like the Lord was sleeping' during my papacy

Pope Benedict XVI: There have been times when 'it seemed like the Lord was sleeping' during my papacy:
In his outgoing address in front of 150,000 people in St
Peter’s Square, Pope Benedict XVI today said there had been times when “it seemed
like the Lord was sleeping” during his crisis-hit papacy.


Mike Nova comments:

He was not "sleeping", he was simply ignoring you, because both you and your Church became absolutely irrelevant to Him and to the people: His gift of spirituality was lost in your message behind the empty, meaningless and deadening rituals and traditions. Apparently, God was also angry at your attitude toward gay people, because He loves them, just like He loves everybody.

Businesses including Apple, eBay, Facebook, Morgan Stanley support big push for gay marriage

BY MARK SHERMAN, ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON -- Prominent Republicans, retired military leaders and U.S. businesses are among the factions ready to ask the Supreme Court to support marriage equality in two cases up for argument next month.
The effort is being coordinated by gay rights groups and is designed to show the justices the rapid and widespread evolution of views about same-sex marriage, now legal in nine states and the District of Columbia. Religious leaders, labor groups and gay people who live in states that prohibit them from marrying are also weighing in.
The justices will hear the dispute over California's constitutional ban on same-sex marriage on March 26, followed a day later by a challenge to the federal Defense of Marriage Act provision that denies legally married gay couples a range of federal benefits available to heterosexual married couples.
Mary Bonauto, the director of the Civil Rights Project at Gay and Lesbian Advocates and Defenders who is coordinating legal briefs that are due at the court later this week, said that the military, business, labor and other filings will have a "truth-telling function" about the reality of life for gays and lesbians, and they will share a common theme. "Gay and lesbian families and their children are here to stay," Bonauto said.
Businesses who already have signed onto the brief in the California case include Apple, eBay, Facebook, Intel, Morgan Stanley, Nike and Xerox. "We file this brief to add more voices to the growing chorus that Proposition 8, and similar laws barring equal access to marriage for same-sex couples, are unconstitutional and should be invalidated," the companies say, according to a draft of the brief provided by the Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe law firm. California is among 30 states with constitutional provisions that prohibit same-sex marriage, Roughly 10 others do so by statute.
