我覺得人越大,會變得越偏激,譬如對於同性戀的看法和立場。
記得去年在蘋果日報看到某宗教團體的一大篇聲明,要求香港市民站起來,反對同性戀行為,亦列出種種原因來證明這是一個不道德的行為。甚麼神創造亞當和夏娃,婚姻是應該建立在一夫一妻的基礎上, 聖經否定同性性行為...等。
看到後我就覺得很噁心– 不是因為聲明裡含有對同性戀嚴厲的批評,或是試圖把自己宗教信仰強加於非基督徒身上。而是,這是一個團體在利用人的信仰去限制愛的定義。這是一個在宣揚無條件的接納,無私的愛的宗教,卻也同時認為性戀在違反自然,是一種罪。我不能接受這種虛偽。
維繫一段關係已經夠辛苦,為什麼社會還要加重我們的負擔呢?
愛一個人是不應該變得那麼沈重的。
well said! i just read a book called When She Woke and it sets in a dystopia where the political atmosphere is extremely conservative and abortion is illegal. People who commit crimes have to be "chromed" and their skin color has to change to yellow, red, blue and green, depending on what their crime is. I know this is fictional but it just baffles me to see how these "moralists" label people and aggressively want people who are homosexual or who have aborted their children to live with guilt and shame, instead of showing the empathy and love that they usually boast about.
ReplyDeleteagree with 愛一個人是不應該變得那麼沈重的! people always say that a romantic relationship should be "leung gor yun geh si" but apparently in our society it's not! too much judgment :(
I'm interested to read that book! And yes, it's completely ridiculous how people want to exert control and pressure over a simply relationship even though they are not harmed by it or anything...
