Pacquiao versus the Transgender and Gay Issue

Not that Far from the topic of Pacquiao vs Bradley Fight; same sex is considered one of the hottest issue for the 21st century. Apparently, last week Presindent Obama gives his positive support towards same sex Marriage. Contrary to what the president of United Stated of America stated, the defending champion and the pound for pound greatest fight of his time, Manny Pacman Pacquiao pronounced last week about his opinion on Gays and transsexuals.

According to the very nice article I read early on that morning, Pacquiao quoted a bible verse from Leviticus that goes “If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to deathly their blood will be on their own heads.” Numerous people then response regarding this catchy and hasty topic that requires deep understanding; Pacman in return told the public that he is standing not only as a politician and a well-known professional boxer but a concerned Christian who is leaving with the worlds of God.

“I don’t agree with, and I’m against, gay marriage,” Pacquiao said. “I’m not saying I condemn gay people, or gay marriage. I have relatives who are gay. I have friends who are gay” Pacquiao added.
Even though it was an honest mistake, Pacquiao’s criticism was swift as the Grove Shopping Mall in Los Angeles was the first establishment banning the superstar. Pacquiao was scheduled to do a promotion with his Bradley vs Pacquiao fight, but the management said that it was “not a place for intolerance.”
Pacquiao on the other hand doesn’t feel guilty as he is confident enough that he was just preaching the words of God. “It’s O.K,” Pacquiao said.

On the boxing side of his career, he is currently busy about his upcoming fight with Timothy Bradley. Watch Pacquiao vs Bradley Live Online
