We beg to differ.
Maybe it is true — that Carlos Celdran is a bad influence on the Filipino. After all, hasn’t one of the biggest issues with us Filipinos always been about our lack of ability to think things through properly and act consistently upon said thinking within some sort of rules-based framework — such as the Law?…

Philippine President Benigno Simeon “BS†Aquino has weighed in on the “Damaso†dilemma and has showed his inconsistency yet again. He “urged the Church to follow the Pope’s example and forgive†tourist guide and part-time activist, Carlos Celdran.

It hasn’t happened for the last several days since news broke of the conviction of shock activist Carlos Celdran for the crime of peforming acts “notoriously offensive to the feelings of the faithful”.

Droll, unintelligent, petty, and pathetic – these words describe the “debate” that has surrounded the discussion of the Reproductive Health Bill (RH Bill), the passing through both houses of Congress and its eventual signing into law as RA 10354. The whole point of the exercise was to implement some sort of semblance of population control….
