The Philippines’ traffic problems will never be solved. Here’s why…

September 4, 2015 benign0 37 Comments

The thing with the traffic mess in Metro Manila is that it is easy to pontificate about the ideal long-term solutions — “consistent enforcement of traffic rules”, “construction of more roads”, “modernisation of public transport infrastructure”, etc. Indeed, all of those are the obvious solutions; solutions that should have been implemented a long time ago…

Filipinos Really Need To Develop A Sense Of Justice

September 3, 2015 Grimwald 33 Comments

I remember writing an article that asked whether or not the Filipino people can ever find justice for themselves and the answer, as it turns out, is far from positive. The thing is, while I understand the suffering of my people and wish I could help in some way, the biggest obstacles for justice in the…

Why the Iglesia Ni Cristo rally on EDSA was another case of Filipinos’ SQUATTER mentality prevailing

September 2, 2015September 2, 2015 benign0 82 Comments

Much has been said about the sad way Filipino politicians — particularly the top presidentiables of the moment: Mar Roxas, Grace Poe, and Jejomar Binay — clambered all over one another to suck up to the Iglesia Ni Cristo (INC). The INC staged a rally last week that fouled up Metro Manila’s main road artery…

The Hostility Of The Iglesia Ni Cristo: A Growing Problem

September 1, 2015 Grimwald 3 Comments

Okay, it seems that the protest has finally ended and the big rally in EDSA is disbanding. In due time, everything will go back to the way it was in the busy streets of Mendiola. Well, it probably won’t be okay (I mean, there are precious few places in the Philippines that can even be called okay after…

Laude Camp Demands Money And Visas: Typical ‘Pinoy Justice’

September 1, 2015 Grimwald 18 Comments

I remember writing an article about the Jeffrey Laude vs. Joseph Scott Pemberton case. I remember expounding on how little we actually understand the concept of justice and how the case is just another example of how Pinoy vindictiveness is confused for “justice”. Unfortunately, here we are, the latest news about the case says everything we…

Who wants to be happy all the time?

August 31, 2015September 1, 2015 FallenAngel 6 Comments

The movie “Inside Out”, by Pixar, is an animated film which tells the story of a young girl growing up, and along with it, the interactions of five personified emotions within her mind. The emotions are named Joy, Sadness, Disgust, Anger, and Fear. In reality, though, the average human experiences many more emotions than those…

On The INC Debacle: Get Real Philippine Democracy!

August 30, 2015 Grimwald 23 Comments

So I’ve said my piece about the INC, now it’s time to write something about the government officials who are supposed to be addressing the issue… The thing is, our politicians and media insist that our government is a modern democratic one. However, the more I look at the situation unfolding in EDSA and how…

Get Real Iglesia Ni Cristo!

August 30, 2015 Grimwald 19 Comments

Note: This is supposed to be another of my Sunday sermons but I decided to keep this secular because it would be very hypocritical of me to call out another religion while bringing up my own religious beliefs. So no, I won’t be wearing my stole, collar, chastity belt, garter belt and stockings this Sunday. Oh…
