Evangelical senator "cowed" in vote that approved gay marriage

Senator Eduardo Lopes (PRB-RJ) shamed the so-called "Evangelical Front" in the Senate, after voting for "abstention" in the bill approved by the Senate Committee on Constitution and Justice (CCJ). People of the same sex.

The project is authored by Senator Marta Suplicy (PMDB-SP) and reported by Senator Roberto Requião (PMDB-PR), and amends points of the Civil Code, which currently classifies as a family entity "the stable union between man and woman" .

Eduardo Lopes é pastor da Igreja Universal do Reino de Deus e seu voto foi considerado uma "Covardia", por muitos líderes religiosos e até mesmo, alguns colegas.

Sendo ele evangélico, ele deveria ter no mínimo se posicionado contra, e se mostrar a favor da família. Disse o pastor Enoque Batista, da igreja presbiteriana do Brasil em seu perfil no Facebook.See the list of votes:

Senator Great Malta

On the day of the vote, Senator Magno Malta was sick and recovering at the hotel.

With Malta's absence, PLS 612/2011, would be much more likely to be approved and was immediately put on the agenda, which was not scheduled for that day.

Upon learning that the CCJ would vote on this bill, Malta, even sick, went to the Senate, which was in vain, because the commission had already approved the bill on arrival.

Why then did Senator Eduardo Campos not appear, asking that they wait for the arrival of Senator Magno Malta who was sick and on the way?

Why did not you tell Malta about the vote?

On the day of the vote, the president of the evangelical front was the deputy João Campos, who is also of the PRB. If Eduardo Lopes had informed the president of the evangelical front and the deputies of his party, they would certainly have been able to stop the vote and postpone it for another day.

And finally, as an evangelical pastor, elected with the vote of Christian families, do you prefer to fold your arms in the face of something so serious that is so fought by religious leaders and politicians?

Think about it in 2018.
