※ 引述《falstaff (no day but today)》之铭言:
: 心得
: 在现在这麽讲人权的时代
: 最好不要有政治不正确的答案 像是同性恋是受诅咒之类的
: 而且 我也不觉得同性恋是受诅咒的
: 就算保守派的天主教 也说要尊重同性恋的人权
: 可是天主教不觉得同性婚姻是权力的一部分
: 那自由派的天主教 对同性恋就同意更多了
昨天刚好有美国民主党总统候选人关於同性恋的辩论 就顺手翻译一下了
最有可能的三个候选人 都反对同性婚姻
Dem Candidates Weigh in on Gay Issues
http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/us/AP-Democrats-Gay-Rights.html?_r=1&oref=slogin
The candidates underscored differences with Republicans on gay and lesbian
rights, but leading candidates also faced aggressive questioning on their
reluctance to embrace marriage for same-sex couples.
民主党的候选人都强调 在同性恋的权力方面 他们跟共和党不同
可是领先的候选人还是被问到同性婚姻的问题
All of the Democratic candidates support a federal ban on anti-gay job
discrimination, want to repeal the ''don't ask, don't tell'' policy barring
gays from serving openly in the military and support civil unions that would
extend marriage-like rights to same-sex couples.
所有的候选人都支持取消反同性恋的工作歧视
A majority of Americans oppose nationwide recognition of same-sex marriage
and only two of the Democrats support it -- former Alaska Sen. Mike Gravel
and Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio, both longshots for the nomination.
只有两个候选人支持同性婚姻
Barack Obama belongs to the United Church of Christ, which supports gay
marriage, but Obama has yet to go that far.
欧巴马的United Church of Christ支持同性婚姻 不过欧巴马不赞成
(United Church of Christ 算是主流基督教派 在美国比浸信会的人数少一些)
''If we have a situation in which civil unions are fully enforced, are widely
recognized, people have civil rights under the law, then my sense is that's
enormous progress,'' the Illinois senator said.
Clinton said she made a mistake in March when she steered around a question
on whether homosexuality was immoral. She was asked about it after Gen. Peter
Pace, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said he considered homosexual
acts immoral and similar to adultery. He later said he should have not
expressed his personal views. Clinton later issued a statement saying she did
not think being gay was immoral.
''It was a mistake,'' Clinton said. ''I should have put it in a broader
context.''
希拉蕊说 她不觉得同性恋是不道德的
Human Rights Campaign President Joe Solmonese, who was on a panel posing
questions to the candidates, said in a statement, the forum ''was an
important night in the fight for equality.''
Solmonese说 这对平权的努力是很重要的夜晚
''Unfortunately, we have more work to do,'' Solmonese said. ''The
overwhelming majority of the candidates do not support marriage equality.
While we heard very strong commitments to civil unions and equality in
federal rights and benefits, their reasons for opposing equality in civil
marriage tonight became even less clear.''
