200,000 March for Traditional Marriage in Taiwan

Peter Baklinski : Dec 5, 2013  LifeSiteNews.com

"...we decided to stand up and fight against this bill that will affect the next generation."

Prayer at the Prison GateTaipei, Taiwan)—About 200,000 people marched in front of Taiwan's Presidential Office on Saturday, according to organizers or the march. The crowd was protesting a proposed law that would allow same-sex couples to 'marry' and adopt.

"God created human beings as male and female. Only the union of a man and a woman can create the next generation, and the ability to create offspring is an important function of a family," said 40-year-old Ann Huang, who joined the rally with her friends, reported Focus Taiwan.

The protesters, consisting mainly of families with their children, held signs that read "Made by Daddy and Mommy", "Defend Marriage", and "Oppose Amendment to Civil Code Article 972", the current law which holds that marriage is between a man and woman.

The event was organized by The Coalition for the Happiness of Our Next Generation.

"We worry that this alternative family formation idea will confuse children's concepts on education and sexual identity," said Yu Yen-hung, one of the founders of the organization, to The China Post. "Therefore, we decided to stand up and fight against this bill that will affect the next generation."
