"Apply everything he learned from his rigours trainings." What does that even mean? The thought is horrendous. Being gay is not about looking pretty or posing well or having good diction and smarts. Being gay, for a man, is solely about having sexual desire for another man. A man is only gay if he desires to have sex with other men. There are no other qualifiers for being gay. So what rigorous training will he be applying to become "Mr. Gay World?"
Unlike the West, homosexuality in Asia, especially in Thailand, is not so cut and dry as men lusting after men and women lusting after women. Asian cultures have a "third gender" which is basically gay men affecting the habits of women: dress, mannerisms, speech, employment. In the Philippines they are known and Bakla.
Bakla are sometimes considered a third sex.
Nowadays, in almost every city and town across the culturally diverse islands of the Philippines there is at least one bakla (in general many baklas) living a normal life, accepted (at least by some) as a member of the third sex

But so what? So what if this acceptance of homosexuals as a "third sex" has been accepted long before the Spaniards came? Are Filipinos going to go back to sacrificing to and worshipping false idols and living the way they did before the West came? Doubtful.
The fact that the Philippines, which prides itself on being Asia's only Christian nation and is in fact the 4th largest Christian country on earth with about 90% of the population being adherents, has a culture which is thoroughly imbued with and accepting of homosexuality is confounding.
Every Sunday the Catholic priests carry out their marching orders and rail against the corruptions of the Duterte administration.
The strong dissent of the Philippine Catholic Church against Duterte’s “executioner” methods is now known. Many and various were the pronouncements of cardinals, bishops and priests, while last ’march for life’, held a month ago in Manila, turned into a lively protest march with 10 thousand faithful marching against the president, promoter of a “reign of terror” similar to the dictatorship of Ferdinand Marcos.

Where is the Church's voice to speak out against and condemn the shameful perversion of homosexuality which permeates every level of Filipino culture? From homosexuals prancing on TV to ladyboys selling their bodies on the street or living normal lives accepted by everyone else sodomy is tolerated throughout the country.
“I am gay,” declared Father RJ*. "Homosexuality it is not an issue anymore within the Catholic clergy.”
Together with his friends and hundreds other members of the LGBT community, the priest joined the parade with pride and confidence.
"This represents my sexuality and religiosity," the 36-year-old priest said, pointing to his rainbow-colored bracelet of crosses. "Why should I be ashamed? My sexual preference never hindered my mission as a Catholic priest."
RJ observed that "homosexuality is common within the organization of the priests."
“We crack jokes about it. We talk serious matters concerning sexuality and there are a lot of priests who are vocal they are homosexuals,” he added.
He said there are members of the clergy who were still "hiding inside the closet because of fear or confusion or guilt.”
Then the priest recited Pope Francis’ statement – his favorite line of the pontiff: “If a person is gay and seeks the Lord and has good will, well who am I to judge?”
There you have it! The Church welcomes homosexuals into its midst and many of its priests are even homosexuals. Why would they speak up against this abominable perversion for which God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah and demands the punishment of death when they are partakers of this deadly sin?
Jude 1:7: Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
Leviticus 20:13: If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
The idea that as long as a homosexual is celibate then everything is ok and he is not in sin is deceitful, negates the deep-seated nature of sin, and contradicts the very words of Jesus who equates the thought with the act.
Matthew 5:28: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
II Corinthians 10:5: Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ
It is not enough for a man to be celibate and abstain from the outward act. He must be cleansed from within and made a new creature. Paul writes to the Corinthians making mention that some of them were homosexuals but now they were washed and sanctified in the name of Jesus.
I Corinthians 6:9: Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
I Corinthians 6:10: Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
I Corinthians 6:11: And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
Being sanctified and justified and washed in Christ makes men new creatures.
II Corinthians 5:17: Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
This being a new creature in Christ is the Gospel of God's grace of which the Roman Catholic Church knows nothing and is therefore leading its members straight to hell.
Priests who identify as homosexuals while claiming to be abstinent yet who also parade with and celebrate active homosexuals and the entire LGBT spectrum are liars and frauds and no priests of God. They are liars because they call homosexuality a sin for which abstinence is the cure while parading with and celebrating active homosexuals. They are frauds because though they are celibate in their heart they long for and identify with the sin of homosexuality. They are no priests of God because no priest of God embraces, celebrates, and identifies with sin.

Roman Catholicism and not Christianity is the religion of the Philippines. This religion is a rejection of God's grace as revealed in Jesus Christ for a worshipping of Saints and relics and the Virgin. It substitutes simple faith in Christ with a labyrinth of penances and prayers and works to earn God's forgiveness.
Filipinos claim to worship God but the truth is they worship the false idols of Sto. Niño and the Black Nazarene. They crucify and scourge themselves as a sacrifice instead of trusting in the once for all sacrifice of Christ. They parade idols through the streets of their cities and celebrate events that never happened such as the Salubong.

It's no wonder that homosexuality is acceptable in the Philippines. Filipinos have rejected the God they claim to worship and He has given them up to this reprehensible sin.
Romans 1:24: Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
Romans 1:25: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
