Bill: Adoption for homosexual couples...
Details
Submitted by[?]: The Marcus Movement
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: April 2560
Description[?]:
The legislation that we have is quite outdated and should be ammended for the good of all citizens... We currently allow members of the homosexual community to die for our country in the military yet we do not allow them to rasie children... The Marcus Movement calls for change! Please take a moment to consider your views on this issue before you jumpo into voting as I feel that an all party response in favour to this is called for to show the people of this great nation where we all stand on citizen equality! |

Message | But fundamentally, we are not all equal. "Homosexuals are an abomination before Our Lord Zardugala, His Holy Messenger on Earth Our Saiser, and The State itself. They violate nature, displease Our Lord, and shrink the pool of able children to work in Zardugal's factories and serve in her armies, and allowing them to adobt children will only allow them to imbue a new generation with their heathenistic propaganda." ~ from Volume IX of the Edicts Saiserica |
