From Ansel Beluso, former entertainment writer and showbiz talk-show host: Ang RH Bill ay mapanganib sa pamilya dahil pinahihina nito ang ugnayan ng magulang at anak; at pinanghihimasukan nito ang karapatan at obligasyon ng magulang bilang pangunahing guro at gabay ng mga anak sa usapin ng seksuwalidad. Ito rin ay mapanganib sa kabataan dahil ituturo […]

The inside pages of the ad announce that, “Catholics support the use of condoms to prevent HIV,” while attempting to justify this claim by misquoting Pope Benedict XVI in his 2010 book co-authored with Peter Seewald, Light of the World. The point of the ad is obvious: to pit Catholics against their bishops by calling […]

It’s unclear why so many people insist on describing themselves as “Catholic” when they apparently have no desire to actually learn and live the tenets of the Catholic religion. Yet because of their relentless insistence to muddy the waters and return civilization to the era of the sophists, a clarification of the truly Catholic position […]

Old news but needs repeating. In times of natural disasters, what’s one of the first places people flock to, if not the first? The Church. Its doors are always open, its pews ready and available, its walls safe and sheltering. Who are the Church? We are. And the fact of the matter is that when […]

Infallible Teaching on Artificial Contraceptives by Dr. Bernardo Villegas Even before the “limits to growth” hypothesis broke out in the 1970s, as an economist I had always rejected any attempt to resuscitate of the completely discredited theory that Thomas Malthus first proferred more than two centuries ago. My training at Harvard under Nobel Prize winners […]

Something diabolical is afoot: Catholics for Reproductive Health (C4RH) is using Mary and the Holy Rosary to promote something which is contrary to the teaching of the Catholic Church. I think they found a mnemonic device: RH is Roproductive Bill, so HR is Holy Rosary. HR for RH. Sounds good, right? But alas, as the […]

Interviewer Robles asks why other physicians do not have the same conviction. Dr. Octaviano explains, “I can only answer for my own conscience. But this I would like to surmise. I think as I was blinded before. My other colleagues are also blinded right now because they are forgetting their identity and they forget what […]

Every birth is a gift from God; every new life, a blessing; every birth a cause for rejoicing and praising God who creates new life only out of love. Our country’s positive birth rate and a population composed of mostly young people are the main players that fuel the economy. A fact that even the […]

NFP is not an illusion of ultimate control, which is what you have in the case of condoms or birth control pills & patches, morning-after pills, IUD’s, and by extension of these methods, abortion. It’s not a permanent closing of the body to the possibility of life, as in the case of elective sterilization. It’s […]

The use of contraception is contrary to natural law. This fact is recognized by the Catholic Church1, but in general the Church’s claim is poorly understood. Nature is manipulated every day as rivers are dammed to store water, plants and animals are bred to supply food, fibres, companionship and sport and the natural progress of […]
