Homosexuality is all those things, as far as God is concerned, and He’s promised that every single one of them who dies unrepentant will burn in hell, as will every single one who supports them in their depravity.
Pacquio supposedly has political ambitions...
******************
He is a Senator with great (100%) name recognition ... he could be president easily.
Oops! rep who wants to junp to the senate.. ,, comment stands , he can have any position he wants ,, he is a “National Hero”, the poor will support him in overwhelming numbers.
He’ll easily win. I have Filipino in-laws and it’s a celebrity driven political year. Celebs always mostly win there during elections AND the AP being pro faggot, are butt hurt as usual.
And from Farmer’s Market.
This is the "tolerant" 21st century, remember.
“worse than animals”
He’s right and proved some critters can’t except the facts.
Or even to living creatures! They’re not called ‘dogs’ for nothing.
A customer of mine is from Palawan — Manny is from that island. Huge fan. He mentioned that he was thinking of a political career. But I haven’t had that conversation with him since.

The left WILL attempt to destroy you if you express any condemnation of homosexuality whatsoever.
Intolerance will not be tolerated.
True. In NYC, though - they’re prime targets for the ferals.
