I have the sensation that "El Partido Nacional" (Uruguayan second party in terms of voters) addressing matters such as abortion, cohabitation rights, rights for same-sex couples does not utterly welcome to new ideas (new thoughts) or social sensation.
If we get to talk about abortion, the value of life is still the value of life. Uruguay adhered to the San José Pact and life should always be considered as a legal entity since its very conception. This matter does not admit any sort of reinterpretation, according to "Partido Nacional".
In regards to marriage and cohabitation rights I, former president Luis Alberto Lacalle, shall say the marriage institution is a pure institution, the basis of society, that combines male and female, with reproductive goals.
Despite of these I am not unable to say I fully agree with the creation of a legal figure of cohabitation, it may be called marriage contact, that does not go against moral values.
We, as people with a liberal thought, know and believe that about what people do within close doors the State shall never interfere.
If tomorrow two persons of the same sex, for reasons of friendship or any other kind, decide to grant each other legal benefits such pensions or inheritance rights, or help with each other, there must be a legal way that can make it possible. But despite all this, only marriages should be able to adopt children.
