การแต่งงานของคนเพศเดียวกัน

Abstract

In this article, an attempt was purposely made to answer the ethical question that 'is same sex marriage morally permissible? if morally permissible, on which teaching it should be grounded, and if not, on which teaching it should be grounded too'. This paper will mainly focus on the Buddhist teachings. After careful examination, it argued that the same sex marriage is neither morally permissible nor not morally impermissible matter because any prohibition or permissibility is not found, therefore, it would become possible that such an act could be done as long as it does not infringe the third Buddhist precept or harm oneself and society.
