A religious sector in Davao City decried the provisions of the proposed sexual orientation, gender identity expression, and sexual characteristics bill claiming that its provisions are discriminatory to religion including to the belief of the Indigenous People .
“Our primary concern is CAD ang title but if you go deep down sa maong provisions it’s very discriminatory sa religious, IPs, and other straight communities. The Catholic Bishop Conference of the Philippines aired their concerns as well as the Iglesia ni Kristo. I joined two committee hearings ug nakita didto ang ilahang mga presentation. Probably, about 24 percent of the population ang ma-discriminate sa bill para lang paburan ang few.
“Halimbawa kung ako adunay hotel unya ang akong religious belief nga ang akong hotel i-open lang nako sa straight hetero couple unya dili nako i-open sa mga homosexuals kay mao na ang akong faith and belief, kung imo silang balibaran puwede ka nila kasuhan unya ang kaso puwede ka makamulta ug P100,000 to P500,000 mapriso ka between one year to 12 years,” he explained.
