Slovenia rejected on Sunday a law that would give same-sex couples the right to marry and adopt children in its second vote on gay rights in four years.

About 63.4 percent of voters rejected the law in a referendum while 36.6 percent supported it, a preliminary result of the State Electoral Commission showed after 99 percent of votes were counted.

Parliament passed a law in March giving same-sex couples the right to marry and adopt children, but the measures have not been enforced because a civil society group called For Children appealed to the top court, calling for a referendum. ...

They know that they did not climb out of Soviet domination only to get them enslaved to the samesexers.

Big deal!

Every state in the US rejected the same-sex marriage concept.

But our Judicial System forced it on our people.

So has the U.S., over and over. Does Slovenia have a Supreme Court to overrule the voters?

Too bad we don’t have the right to choose God’s way of life in our godless nation.The citizens of the USA never got to have a referendum on homosexuals’ phony “marriage.”States voted no, and Democrats went to their hired bullies in the courts to take away our right to decide whether thousands of years of God’s marriage could be perverted by cry-baby homosexuals who will never fit into normal society.

Shouldn’t the UN be called in to replace all the Slovenians with homosexual-loving Moolsims?

It appears to me, that these Eastern European countries are not into PC. Homosexual marriage is DEFINITELY PC. Good for them.

No worries. The left will keep bringing this up for a vote until they get the result they want, and then there will never be another vote on it.

Good for Slovenia!

Glad to know not every country is willing to follow America’s lead into the sewer, celebrating depravity and perversion.

We need a constitutional amendment that allows for a federal referendum.

It seems that those sparks of sanity mostly originate from the former Warsaw Pact countries and Russia. Why is that?

Maybe collectivism killed most of its proponents after 70 years of oppression.

Hmm. Ver-r-ry interesting. Let me think about that.

And in the spirit of the Season, Advent, Hanukkah (I realize Hanukkah is past already), Oy to the World and all that...

O - O - O - O, Happy fourth day of the O Antiphons!

"O Key of David, and scepter of the house of Israel, who opens and no man shuts, who shuts and no man opens: come, and bring forth the captive from his prison, he who sits in darkness and in the shadow of death."

O CLAVIS DAVID!
