Japan’s religious right resists marriage equality

4 comments

1. Citing the invisible forces of deities, they say human love is very regimented and specific and to stop caring for others who aren’t like them.

2. Unification Church and Shinto Association. Two groups that have no religious historical orthodoxy against homosexuality to stand on so they have to borrow anti-LGBTQ arguments from American evangelicals. Why not just say you hate gay people at this point.

3. Tell the truth.

   “Imaginary friends are more important than the happiness and well-being of citizens. At least that’s the excuse we’re using today. Really it just comes down to hate.”

4. So slowly but surely Japan falls into the bottomless pit of authoritarian theocracy?
