Lesbianism

Theological and philosophical teachings of homosexuality say that a homosexual orientation cannot be sinful in and of itself. Homosexual urgings are similar to other human weaknesses, in that they constitute an unnatural and unhealthy manifestation of the fallen human nature, like urgings for normal sex, drugs, and excessive food and alcohol. The homosexual urge can only cause damage to the person's soul if he caves in and acts on his desires, in the same manner that an alcoholic does no damage to himself until he begins to drink.

Lesbianism in the Philippines could be seen as a threat to us. We are exposed to Catholicism which dictates that homosexuality is strongly prohibited in God's law. Yet, nowadays, we see women engaged to women. So this is where the threat comes in. We are actually trying to deviate and with this, we directly affect the Roman Catholic Church. If this phenomenon could no longer be controlled or if the world agrees to it, then eventually, the Roman Catholic Church's view on this will be disregarded by mankind and what will be left is our freewill to homosexuality, specifically, to lesbianism.

In an existentialist's point of view, I agree to lesbianism. Man's expression of love towards the same sex is a creative way of responding to human nature. while others may find eros in the opposite sex, others too, find it in the same sex. What we see in the society today, the boy-and-girl relationship, is only a product of our belief (not necessarily biblical belief) that only that kind of relationship must exist in the society and which means that lesbianism, or homosexuality n general, is completely excluded. Basically, the gist of this is love.

I repeat, I agree to it. For me, really, this world was made beautifully and love was designed in many wonderful ways. Love was here even before humankind was known in earth. Lastly, I would say: "If nothing is impossible with God, how come lesbianism was made possible? Isn't it because God allowed it?" Start to think.
