I would like to share the song "One Day" by Matisyahu to end this blog roll.
sometimes I lay
under the moon
and thank God I'm breathing
then I pray
don't take me soon
cause I am here for a reason
sometimes in my tears I drown
but I never let it get me down
so when negativity surrounds
I know some day it'll all turn around
because
all my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
for the people to say
that we don't wanna fight no more
they'll be no more wars
and our children will play
one day x6
it's not about
win or lose cause
we all lose
when they feed on the souls of the innocent
blood drenched pavement
keep on moving though the waters stay raging
in this maze you can lose your way (your way)
it might drive you crazy but don't let it faze you no way (no way)
sometimes in my tears I drown
but I never let it get me down
so when negativity surrounds
I know some day it'll all turn around
because
all my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
for the people to say
that we don't wanna fight no more
they'll be no more wars
and our children will play
one day x6
one day this all will change
treat people the same
stop with the violence
down with the hate
one day we'll all be free
and proud to be
under the same sun
singing songs of freedom like
one day x4
all my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
for the people to say
that we don't wanna fight no more
they'll be no more wars
and our children will play
one day x6
ooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

WHAT LEI THINKS...
The stand of my good friend Lei on the RH Bill.
"I find this 7-week blog about the RH Bill very knowledge-, reality- and factual-based. And upon accummulated research, I will not say I am a pro or an anti; I will not take sides. I have learned that until our nation is divided by this, we will not be able to uplift each other’s lives. In one networking company, their vision is to uplift one million lives at a time. But how do they do that? They simply extend a hand to members or employees who needs help. They do not leave the ‘losers’ or the less fortunate behind. The millionaires or the well-off always look back to where they came from and that makes them humble and down to earth. And I ask myself, why can we not be like that? We are so full of words; we always want to talk and talk without walking it. We do not realize that if we prolong this fight, we are delaying the help we could give to other people. Why does the word ‘cooperate’ and ‘compromise’ does not exist in us? Why do we always have to fight for things we know we would benefit in the future? Ask yourselves why. We are becoming close-minded to everything that is happening. We are wasting the opportunity that the Senate or the House is giving us – the opportunity to help amend the laws. We are always invited to listen to the hearing of laws but what we always do is insist what we want to happen. We always fight for the wrong reasons. Why not think about building a stable future – not only for us, but also for the next generations? We, Filipinos, are known for preserving our values. But why do those people who fight for it does not seem like good models? Yes, maybe I am pertaining to the Church; but it is true, right? They are known to be God’s instruments but why do they have the guts to bash people around, to threaten them? Where is the love they should be sharing? Come on guys think. We are not in the right state to fight for this bill. Why don’t the anti tell straight to the Congress to throw that bill and amend existing laws instead. This is no time for experimentation right. We are losing lives here. We should act quick! Meanwhile, the pros should be open to this suggestion, the pros should be the one to open a good and positive dialogue about this issue for I know they have all the means to explain the bill. We should know that initiative is the key. Let’s stop insisting on each other’s principles. We are all different people, we cannot change that. We just have to keep adjusting and cope with whatever’s here right now."
My classmate Lei and I have the same stand on the RH Bill. I think that she presented facts and arguments well about her side and was able to send out the message clearly.

FOR STEPHEN SI....
A fellow classmates point of view, Mr. Stephen Si. He is one of the people is who is for the RH Bill. A neutral stand he has when it comes on the topic of believing in God. He argued that people who do believe in our creator could sometimes be very confusing. I guess it would most probably be when someone takes the bible literally that would really cause plenty of doubt and confusion towards many people. I believe that the bible should not be taken literally because that it would lose the point and true meaning of anything that the it says there.
God asks us to think more deeply with his words so that we could fully understand his word. Much like when the bible says, (any versions: whether it is King James, New international version, NLT and etc) "be fruitful and multiply and increase your number" you cannot just go ahead having kids incessantly, without thinking further its responsibilities, the ones they will go through once they have a child. They ought to make sure that they are able to provide basic things for them their shelter, education and food. The fact that there are plenty of kids wandering around the streets show that our beloved country is not able to make parents more aware of their responsibilities.
“God gave us free will, so why not use that free will to decide for ourselves?”, he added. I will quote his one strong opinion about the Church’s beliefs.
“Another thing I’d like to seriously point out about the beliefs of the church is that most of the time, their own beliefs clash with one another. It doesn’t even make sense sometimes. Let’s give a hypothetical situation. Let’s say there is a family in poverty and they live in a slum area. They already have three kids which obviously more than they can afford. When asked, they prefer not to have another child. So how does that work? They’re married so they obviously have the right to have sexual intercourse. If they no longer want children they’re not allowed to have sex anymore? Doesn’t that also contradict their beliefs that married couples should be allowed to have sex as a symbol of their love?”
"“It’s not as simple as saying that just because we’re not overpopulated doesn’t mean people won’t starve.”
“Ang stupid talaga, sana wag nalang tayo magbulagbulagan sa reality eh. We really need that bill if not, people are not going to be disciplined. They would not have any information or guide on how they could survive their poor lives. Pag walang RH Bill, para narin natin tinanggalan ng chance makabawi sa life yung mga tao. God did not die for us to suffer more. His death saved us just like the crappy Church is teaching. Then why are we stopping the RH Bill. Sana dina madelay to. Come on people think! Wake up, this is reality. We are screwed up anyway why not face its consequences?"

LET'S SEE WHAT HAPPENS IF THE RH BILL IS PASSED. WHO KNOWS??
Patricia Natividad:
For me, the idea of RH bill is acceptable, provided there should still be balance and acceptance from both parties. If we are to say that the implementation of the RH Bill is to suppress or alleviate the growing population of our country, the Republic of the Philippines, then we might be missing the point. The RH Bill may be of help to this but I do not think that this is the answer or the solution to the prevailing and on going problem.
I think that the most rightful thing to do is to educate. Educate people from all walks of life, from all levels of education and all fields of the industry. Regardless if you can or cannot sustain or simply feed one family member. We should instill awareness in the minds of the Filipino people to start “family planning” especially, without any biases, to the illiterates or the uneducated for the very obvious reason that they do not know and because they do not know and they are not aware, they would not care. On another note, people from the middle to the higher classes do not give them any access to by pass and over look the system too, otherwise, they are also not being of any help to the program. In connection to that, since the lower classes do not have the sense of “responsibility”, if I may put that in quotation, they keep procreating, which is not a wrong thing to do, but they are not careful to what is ahead of them and these are the consequences to further poverty as more and more children are being added to their families, with a low paying job, sometimes even not so decent jobs just to try to sustain the family which leads to a growing population.
In conclusion, there really is nothing wrong in pro-creation, it was even commanded to us in the Holy Bible, “Go, therefore and multiply” but I also believe that the Lord commanded this within reasons and that is the reason why we have leaders and people in position to have these “reasons” be implemented.
I believe that my good friend Patricia presented really valid and concrete reasons too as to why the prolong reproductive health bill should be passed. Aside from being a firm believer too, it is actually the future of the coming generations that our leaders should be more aware of. If the cycle continues, the reproductive health bill being passed over and over again and nothing’s being considered as a solution for this problem then we would have a generation that will just get worse or remain the same. No change at all and as a third world country that is awfully tragic to settle for. Our country should aim high, this is one of the ways to solve the problem of poverty, lack of education, better health and finding jobs that will suffice for a good lifestyle. IMPLEMENT THE RH BILL NOW AND LET’S TAKE IT FORM THERE.

MEJ- ALL ABOUT THE RH BILL!
My sister Mej Del Rosario is all about the Reproductive Health Bill. In my interview with her she said that she was all about EDUCATION. She is one of the people who believe that the root of this problem is the lack of education. In reality, there are plenty of thirteen-year-old girls who get pregnant. These girls do not know that if they engage into sexual activities they would get pregnant. Hence, they do not know how difficult it would be and how life is.
“The thing is fine fine, overpopulation but what happens to the kind of kid they raise?”
Men and women who are in poverty are not very well privilege to get into good schools and have quality education hence the reason why they are not able to get jobs that pay well or enough. This has been the propelling system and cycle. She has also mentioned that it is true that the reproductive health bill targets the “youngsters” since their parents do not know well about sex education too! And the thing is, the reproductive health bill would not be presented in manner of making it a joke. It would be presented in the classroom just like any other science class they take. It is absolutely not going to be disgusting, provocative and informal. It would be explained like “this is the sperm and then when it meets the egg this happens” and that it is painful. Sex is part of the human body, it is but just right to be able to study things about it in school as well, much like the eye. Our country is so conservative to the point that it is very hard to distinguish what is sincere and not anymore.
However, she also says that she is not about the contraceptives (abortafficient), just take these kinds of contraceptives and put the education then that’s it! The only reason why it is taking this long is because they are talking so much about it, they arguments and reasons are becoming like a cycle- they just keep repeating the same old issues. They have also reached the point where in they have threatened the president of the country Noynoy Aquino to be excommunicated for the reason of him supporting this bill as well.
See if one would take the bible literally it going to be very difficult however, if you think critically about it when god said multiply he also meant that parents should be responsible for taking care of their child’s fundamental needs and holistic being. They ought to make sure that they are able to send their children to school, provide food and shelter for them and most especially raise them well as good citizens of their country. They cannot just go on having kids and let them wander off the streets because this is what is specifically happening in our country. Kids who belong to a poor family are starting to learn how to work, wash their clothes, carry boiling water for food and etc. THAT IS CHILD ABUSE! These kids should be playing around in a safe place and learning in school not working.

It is certain that the Reproductive health Bill is currently in Congress and has gone through plenty of discussions, debates and has been prolonged for the longest time. The Members of the BCBP and other concerned people in the country have decided to point out the this proposed bill has yet to be more known for others and realize its effects on the lifestlye of people, their faith, families, children and their future.
CONSPIRACY AGAINST LIFE is the main arguement of the bill. that is also the example of it. This is becoming subtly incessant on the value of sancitity of people's lives in this very generation. It seems as if there is a conspiracy going on that is in that is evolved in a "culture of death". This does not just damage our personal, family and community relations, but does distort our relationship with peoples and nations. This is considered a direct opposition to the culture of life.
THE FOLLOWING IS A DETAILED EXPLANATION OF WHAT THE BCPB OUGHT TO MAKE KNOWN...
"For a more detailed discussion of the various aspects of the Culture of Life, the Culture of Death, and other burning issues of the times (contraception, abortion, euthanasia, bioethics, health care, and sexuality concerns), read Evangelizing Presence: Caring for Life, a BCBP publication, authored by Nancy Russell Catan (BCBP Portal Editor), Fr. Pasquale T. Giordano, SJ, and Mitos Rivera. It is available at the BCBP National Office. Some of the salient features of the Culture of Death vs the Culture of Life are summarized in the following paragraphs.
The basic feature of this Culture of Death is the noticeable absence of God in a growing secular lifestyle, influenced by a flood of distorted and hedonistic values where pleasure is maximized and pain is minimized. Having and hoarding become more important than “being”. Sexuality is depersonalized and exploited. The so-called right of women to decide whether or not to kill their unborn child due to various reasons usually in support of their personal life-style is highlighted and the right of the unborn to its God-given life is being ignored.
This is the modern tragedy: the eclipse of the sense of God and man, and the resulting distortions wherein society refuses to accept and care for any life – the sick, the aged, the dysfunctional, the weak – that interferes with its “progress”. We are gradually but inexorably losing the sense of the sacred in our society.
Life as designed by God is always “a good”. It is the seed of an existence that transcends the very limits of time, for God himself has planted eternity in the human heart. Human life has always been sacred to God, and to proclaim Christianity is to proclaim life.
Therefore as a “people for life” we need to view life in its deeper meaning, and to look for God’s living image in every person, in the unborn person as well as in the birthed. By seeing Christ in every person we meet, we can experience a God-given, everyday – or we could say, an every-person – epiphany! This is the Culture of Life.
It is this Culture of Life that promotes and enables us and others to live in dignity and fullness of life. It is in embracing the Culture of Life that helps us build our families as the basic life unit of community and society. It is in strengthening this Culture of Life in our families that the integrity and sanctity of the family as the domestic church, the basic unit of Christian life and cornerstone of society, is truly realized.
Let us ask ourselves and answer sincerely and honestly from our hearts: Who am I, who are we, to arrogate ourselves equal to God by legislating whether a God-created, God-given life should live or die? The future of our society depends on the rediscovery of the innate human and moral values that promote and strengthen the Culture of Life. At the same time we need to fight against those values that promote the influence of the Culture of Death.
We urge you to familiarize yourselves with the various aspects and concerns surrounding the Reproductive Health Bill by reviewing and re-reading the ten news articles and two videos that have been posted on this website since September 2010."

WHAT THE CBCP THINKS!
Let us all pause for awhile with all the stands of the different people around my circle and get an insight from a member of the CBCP community itself. The editor's blog goes...
"The Reproductive Health Bill now in Congress has been the subject of discussions, heated arguments and lengthy position papers for many months. As BCBP members and concerned citizens, we must make it a point to know more about this piece of proposed legislation and how it would affect our lives, our faith, our families, our children and their future.
This Bill is, in the view of our faith, is a prime example of the “conspiracy against life” that is subtly encroaching on the sanctity of life in today’s milieu. This conspiracy takes the form of a “culture of death” and damages us not only in our personal, family, and community relations, but also distorts relations between peoples and nations. It is in direct opposition to the Culture of Life.

For a more detailed discussion of the various aspects of the Culture of Life, the Culture of Death, and other burning issues of the times (contraception, abortion, euthanasia, bioethics, health care, and sexuality concerns), read Evangelizing Presence: Caring for Life, a BCBP publication, authored by Nancy Russell Catan (BCBP Portal Editor), Fr. Pasquale T. Giordano, SJ, and Mitos Rivera. It is available at the BCBP National Office. Some of the salient features of the Culture of Death vs the Culture of Life are summarized in the following paragraphs.
The basic feature of this Culture of Death is the noticeable absence of God in a growing secular lifestyle, influenced by a flood of distorted and hedonistic values where pleasure is maximized and pain is minimized. Having and hoarding become more important than “being”. Sexuality is depersonalized and exploited. The so-called right of women to decide whether or not to kill their unborn child due to various reasons usually in support of their personal life-style is highlighted and the right of the unborn to its God-given life is being ignored.
This is the modern tragedy: the eclipse of the sense of God and man, and the resulting distortions wherein society refuses to accept and care for any life – the sick, the aged, the dysfunctional, the weak – that interferes with its “progress”. We are gradually but inexorably losing the sense of the sacred in our society.
Life as designed by God is always “a good”. It is the seed of an existence that transcends the very limits of time, for God himself has planted eternity in the human heart. Human life has always been sacred to God, and to proclaim Christianity is to proclaim life.
Therefore as a “people for life” we need to view life in its deeper meaning, and to look for God’s living image in every person, in the unborn person as well as in the birthed. By seeing Christ in every person we meet, we can experience a God-given, everyday – or we could say, an every-person – epiphany! This is the Culture of Life.
It is this Culture of Life that promotes and enables us and others to live in dignity and fullness of life. It is in embracing the Culture of Life that helps us build our families as the basic life unit of community and society. It is in strengthening this Culture of Life in our families that the integrity and sanctity of the family as the domestic church, the basic unit of Christian life and cornerstone of society, is truly realized.
Let us ask ourselves and answer sincerely and honestly from our hearts: Who am I, who are we, to arrogate ourselves equal to God by legislating whether a God-created, God-given life should live or die? The future of our society depends on the rediscovery of the innate human and moral values that promote and strengthen the Culture of Life. At the same time we need to fight against those values that promote the influence of the Culture of Death."

MORE REALIZATIONS!
More of the things I realized!
Part of the statements in the Reproductive Health Bill is that sex education will be implemented in the elementary and secondary (highschool) education. The church has a very strong notion against this idea because it does seem but just the inappropriate to teach kids regarding such topic. However, it says in the bill that if the parents are unable to explain these things about them, they have the option, let me say that again the option to sign a form and let the school teach this to them.
Further, the fact that with or without the Reproductive Health Bill intercourse between male and female would still exist. I think this is by far the strongest realization I have had. Hence, the purpose of the bill of being just an option for the families here in our country. The government would certainly not be able to control how couples might go about their marriages. That particular area is very personal and intimate. The government realizes that which is why this bill should be implemented so that people who might want to benefit from the ideas and advices of this bill could changed their lifestyle (if they want to).
We now live in a very modern world where in people are more liberal, critical and practical now. That change might be remorseful for some but one should face the reality. Not everybody is and will be Catholics and we should give that respect to someone regardless of their choice. This is the very sole purpose of having amendments that declares our freedom of speech, choice and press. The more this bill is prolonged the more the people will question the governments way of governance and the Churchs’ way of analogy and thinking about this particular issue.
However, one should realize it too that the reproductive health bill might encourage adversities like commitment issues but this could only happen when this bill will be abused. Hence, I think that once the bill is implemented the government should definitely be very strict about following what the bill says and does not say.
Another thing is that, we should change that mindset that whenever there are some things that do not go very well like-the industries in our country, poverty rate, education and health. We cannot fully blame the government and their corruption through this. The change should start within each and everybody in and outside our country. To get a bigger picture of what I had just said, think about seeing street children begging for money. Initially we would normally thing that “wow. Why is the government not doing anything about this?” but in a more in-depth analysis why blame the government right away? Are they the parents of these kids wandering around? Is not it the jobs of the parents to take care of the personal level of wellness of their kids? I say stop prolonging the agony of these people and let change occur, right here right now! THE RH BILL PROMOTES SOLUTION NOT HARM!

THE RH BILL PROMOTES SOLUTION NOT HARM!
I HAVE DECIDED!
I have decided! I am for the Reproductive Health Bill! Upon this venture of fully understand both sides of the controversial bill, before all these blog entries come to an end- I am a PRO. This especially when I came across this article on the internet that told the story of an incident that happened during a communion in church. Those who were in favor of the RH BILL was not given the chance to go about the process of communion. There were refused by the church to exercise this holy practice just because of their stand on the bill.
I find this awfully disappointing as they continue to show inappropriate behavior towards the reproductive health bill. The church’s actions to convince more people to go against the bill are manifested in a way that is unbecoming of them, that is disappointing in every level especially that they are (the bishops and priests) the people of God. I feel like the more they persuade people to do be against the reproductive health bill by their desperate ways of excommunicating the Catholics’ who do would result to an intense tension in their community.
It is already a fact that regardless of being a country that is predominantly catholic does not mean everybody is. With much understanding and research on this issue, the reasoning’s of the Church is becoming bothersome. It seems like as if they do not know what the word of God is truly saying. They defend themselves with verses that go “be fruitful and increase your number” in Genesis but only stops there. It further goes that God is saying multiply and increase your number, however make sure that you are able to prove the fundamental things your children will need. Meaning parents must be able to provide food, shelter and clothes for them.
With that let’s begin to ask ourselves, why are there so many street children? This is very evident that if you are in the Philippines one way or another you will definitely experience being asked for money by these poor children. Instead of going to school, playing around their respective homes and learning these kids are on the streets begging for money, sometimes even get drenched under the rain when the weather is on a rainy season and the parents do not do anything about it.
This is also why there are many cases of children who die or get into extreme accidents in and outside the house because at four years old they are taught how to cook for the family, carry boiling water in the house for cooking and other purposes. Where is the responsible parenthood enter the picture? More often than not, there would be parents too who would let their children provide the food on the table. These are just some of the extremes of the real problems in our country. I wish that more people especially the church will realize it that the reproductive health bill is not there to harm but PROTECT the welfare of the people in our country.

To the church: NOT EVERYBODY IS CATHOLIC!
"The longer the RH Bill is being argued over, the more that we are distracted from the real problem and wasting time instead of saving lives and helping our fellowmen. Here are the plain truths. Sobering and painful, aren't they? Do you now see why we need the RH Bill? At the end of the day, the bill simply equips you with information. Be responsible for the choices you make." - Nix Nicholas
I firmly support what she had just mentioned. In my own understanding, the Reproductive Health Bill is there for a reason, for a purpose that could ultimately be beneficial most especially for the unfortunate families. That statement I had just said might have several fallacies but let me explain myself furthermore. One of the root causes of over population in the country as they say is the lack of education- the lack of awareness of poor parents to know when and when not to plan having yet another child. If we have the Reproductive Health Bill passed as a law, it will most certainly help a lot of them. They will be taught how to go about family planning, use of contraceptives and etc.
What many do not take into consideration is that, once the Reproductive Health Bill has been passed it would only serve as an option for the parents. It is not like the government will go to the houses of each family and start demanding an ample amount of their time just to listen to them lecture about family planning. It will be the choice of the parents whether or not they would like to visit the centers in which the family planning lectures are being held.
The government recognizes that they will have no absolute control over the people, especially when it is regarding matters or concerns like these, which are very personal. However, it is still part of their job description to provide aids and the means for the people in the country they serve to make their lives better. For me, the government also recognizes that sex will exist with or without this bill and therefore the use of contraceptives are for those people who are not disciplined or just cannot completely get a hold of themselves and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. The error enters the picture if the government tries to stop them from doing what they want to do because it will ultimately break the code of being in a democratic country.
Another thing is that, the church argue so much about this being a pro-abortion bill. But people should not just take a stand like that. Are they even aware that using condoms will prevent the sperm from meeting the egg? Because this is the case. They say that life starts once the sperm had met the egg however, with condoms this is prevented so that question is just thrown back to them. Sometimes, the church can just be very unreasonable regardless, they are still a good community however, I feel like now that I’m more on the pro-side of this issue the Church should acknowledge that NOT EVERYBODY IS A CATHOLIC!

STRAIGHT TO THE POINT by: Mark Lian, fellow blogger.
For Mark Lian, a fellow blogger about the Reproductive Health Bill he presented reasons and facts about going straight to the point of the RH Bill. He’s idea’s are the following:
Let us go straight away to what, for me, is the most significant means presented by the bill to attain its end, significant from the point of view of understanding the presuppositions of the bill especially with regards to human dignity and human actions. What is this means or, let say for our present context, “provisions”? We are presented an option to choose between the natural method of birth control and the “modern” or artificial method, and these methods are to be made available by the State. (Liam, 2011)
Three things can be observed here: (1) the options are presented as if they exist on the same line of value, that both options advance economics and health; (2) the options are presented as if they are a matter of individual personal choice only, that a woman can procure ligation even without the consent of the husband; (3) the options are presented as if the sexual act is simply a pleasurable act, that discipline is not absolutely necessary in it (since one may use contraceptives and thereby may not exercise continence) to make it a truly human act. (Liam, 2011)
On the same line of value-- it seems to me that RHBP is trying to tell us that the artificial method is as effective a means as the natural method in advancing economic prosperity to this country and good health to its citizens. Three essential points should be made here: first, while it is true that both methods have effects to economics and health, economics and health are not the only areas of human life that can be affected by these methods unless we are prepared to say that human beings are reducible to being only material bodies with more complex desires than the brutes; what I mean here is that the bill stands on a materialist conception of man. Second point, if indeed man is more than an economic living being, meaning that there exists in him ‘spirituality’ that defines the humanness of his humanity, this humanness of his humanity must be the source and end of his activities, including sexual activities. Third point, if our activities do not have this humanness of our humanity as their source and end, then these activities-- in the final analysis-- destroy themselves along with their effects, their supposed to be ‘good’ effects. (Liam, 2011)
On Individual Personal Choice—We are being told that a method of birth control can be procured without spousal consent. Again, we are seeing here the same materialist interpretation of human relations, especially that of marriage. If ‘having children’ is a mutual and joint decision of the couple, why is ‘not having them’ an individual separate choice? This way of thinking is understandable from the point of view of the one who separates the conjugal act itself from its natural fecundity, who separates the conjugal act from human love, and human love from the person. What is missing here is the understanding that the profoundest, the deepest, and the highest dimension, the only dimension worthy of the person as a person is that of love, which is the giving of one’s self as a free gift to another self, a gift that calls for mutual self-giving as well as mutual acceptance. (Liam, 2011)
On Discipline is not Absolutely Necessary—The one who separates procreation from the conjugal act, the conjugal act from human love, and human love from the exigency of personhood, is also the one who cannot understand the need for discipline in human love. Discipline, however, is necessary for self-control or self-mastery, without which one cannot hold himself and give himself to another person, one cannot love. Moreover, we cannot imagine a peaceful and orderly State with citizens who are unable to control themselves—a certain amount of virtue is necessary for a true society of persons. (Liam, 2011)
The spirit of the bill, in my opinion, can be stated briefly this way: that man is only a material being who lives only for himself in the context of his uncontrollable passions. (Liam, 2011)

WHAT DOES OUR PRESIDENT SAY ABOUT RH BILL?
It was initially presented on the news that President Noynoy Aquino was very fickle minded about his stand on the controversial issue of the Reproductive Health Bill which he likes to call the “Responsible Parenthood”. This was very much evident when the term “sa pula sa puti” was broadcasted by the media that came from his previous interviews about his stand on the bill.
During the Presidential Youth Forum that was honorably held in our school, De La Salle University the President had to give an answer, his final answer on whether he is genuinely for the reproductive health bill or against it. He uttered that he values that the people in our country would know important information on different kinds of family planning methods-Regardless, if it is the modern or the natural way. This in the sense that people of a democratic country would still be able to choose or utilize their free will. That statement he let go off made him become a pro on the Reproductive Health Bill, however he mentioned that there are still some areas in the bill that needs revisions which makes it a little confusing whether he is for it or against it. He further says that,
“There are provisions that I cannot support. I was mistakenly labeled as co-author of the bill. Actually I am listed as interpellator, and I am waiting for my opportunity. But having said that, I still think that this is a problem that we cannot bury our heads in the sand. Kailangan natin tugunan. Habang hindi inaasikaso ang problema, tuloy lalaki ang problema at tuloy ang pasakit sa taongbayan.”
In my understanding, PNoy as a catholic believer is torn a part. However, as a president of this country there are certain things that he ought to do for the best interest of the people that is why despite the big possibility that he might get excommunicated in his church, he still believes that the intentions of the reproductive health bill is a good solution and law for our country.
“Responsible parenthood basically says each parent should be reminded, ‘May dinala kayong anak sa mundong ito. Meron kayong obligasyon na sila’y paaralin, pakainin, patirahin ng maayos, damitan, at iba pa.’ Ano ang solusyon diyan? Meron po tayong educational campaign na ipapatupad.”
With these things that he said about the Reproductive Health Bill, he certainly was able to give an affirmative effect to the people listening to him in and outside the area. The people who are for the bill were very much encouraged however, he still felt distressed by the Catholic Church. He ends his speech by saying:
“I don’t care if the Catholic Church will abandon me because of my support for the RH Bill. I cannot allow a church-run state. The church teaches me that I will follow my conscience. My conscience tells me that we have an overpopulation problem. I have to address it; we need to control the population. We must ensure ful availability of contraceptives.”

RH BILL PROMOTES ORDER, it is a solution not pro ABORTION!
According to my sister, Violy Alipio RH BILL PROMOTES ORDER and therefore shall be passed on as a law.
Morally wrong because of the views of bishops, priests, and question? not everybody is catholic. Then how do we do about it? What about the non-Catholics? Therefore, the Catholics who are for it excommunicate them but they don't want this because they will lose their people in the church. Before the sperm goes to the egg it wont be fertilized. but the thing is the question of IF enters the picture. The RH bill brings order, and it will also control the number of babies here in the Philippines. problem enters with how many children babies poor people have, malnourish kids, lack of education, street children will be less.
If they are a lot how they would be given good nutrition, education and good welfare? we have so many problems without any solution but the RH bill is a solution! or a good effect on the lifestyle of the people in the coming generations. we're not overpopulated we just have a lot of poor kids coming from a poor family. if you are rich, like Henry sy 15 kids. Question will they be given good eduation? then he she is not a problem. poor people/families are the problem. then if rh bill is the way for them. rich family don't need governemnt to help them however, poor families do but then the government cannot help them. kailangan mga anak mo naalagaan mo according to the bible. issue of moral: who takes care of your kids? you don't take care of them? give them medicine? wait food on the streets? isn't that morally incorrect when you give birth to kids and then just let other people take care of them?? and the bible said "supilin" lumaki ng matino, respectable mutiply and supilin ito. grow up responsible but is this what we see with poor families who have many kids? YOU ARE ALREADY COMMITTING A MORAL SIN! sin is not by the numbers, irresponsible parents are. bring this back to them. moral issue where does it start? is when they started to have kids? or when they started to plan their families??
Its not just giving out contraceptives, lumaki kids you don't know how to explain sex, rh bill states that parents can explain sex but if they can't institution enters the picture. they will explain this to them. if teachers not enough to explain this to kids then go first. It also promotes, kids to be responsible. tamad na ayaw mag withdaw, its for them. don't deprive them of this kind of discipline affect us because if they grow in number we're the ones who will get affected too. CHAIN REACTION, if they are a lot we're the ones being affected. inate in ourselves that we ought to help, but we know that these kids have parents that should take care of them! and where is the problem coming form? government or parents? why do the parents leave their children alone. government should not be to blam because they parents allow them to do this. The government gets ipit in the picture. It's always the parents first before anyone else.
The government enters the picture because this is a PROBLEM now when they see that there are so many parents being irresponsible. illiteracy, malnutrition, inadequate moral intelligence, shows that being irresponsible parents are okay all these towards the children growing. ABUSE of children, 5 years old takes care of her 2-year-old sibling. can't play because mom works (naglalaba). Child abuses in the family, kids hold fire to cook rice, not safe for them. No child safety!
Morally wrong because of the views of bishops, priests, and question? not everybody is catholic. Then how do we do about it? What about the non-Catholics? Therefore, the Catholics who are for it excommunicate them but they don't want this because they will lose their people in the church.

YOU ARE ALREADY COMMITTING A MORAL SIN! sin is not by the numbers, irresponsible parents are. bring this back to them. moral issue where does it start? is when they started to have kids? or when they started to plan their families??
Its not just giving out contraceptives, lumaki kids you don't know how to explain sex, rh bill states that parents can explain sex but if they can't institution enters the picture. they will explain this to them. if teachers not enough to explain this to kids then go first. It also promotes, kids to be responsible. tamad na ayaw mag withdaw, its for them. don't deprive them of this kind of discipline affect us because if they grow in number we're the ones who will get affected too. CHAIN REACTION, if they are a lot we're the ones being affected. inate in ourselves that we ought to help, but we know that these kids have parents that should take care of them! and where is the problem coming form? government or parents? why do the parents leave their children alone. government should not be to blam because they parents allow them to do this. The government gets ipit in the picture. It's always the parents first before anyone else.
The government enters the picture because this is a PROBLEM now when they see that there are so many parents being irresponsible. illiteracy, malnutrition, inadequate moral intelligence, shows that being irresponsible parents are okay all these towards the children growing. ABUSE of children, 5 years old takes care of her 2-year-old sibling. can't play because mom works (naglalaba). Child abuses in the family, kids hold fire to cook rice, not safe for them. No child safety!
