Ngunit hindi ako naniniwalang responsibilidad ng estado na magpamahagi ng contraceptives sa mga mamamayan nito. Alam ko ay ang responsibilidad ng estadong paglingkuran at protektahan ang sambayanan at mapalaya ang mamamayan nito sa kahirapan sa pamamagitan ng mga polisiya sa pagbibigay ng sapat na batayang serbisyong panlpunan, sapat na trabaho, mataas na batayan ng pamumuhay […]

Very interesting and enlightening post by BongV at AntiPinoy: Population Size/Density/Growth Rate, Ease of Doing Business or Why the RH Bill is a Scam What this all adds up to is that poverty is not caused by population size, population density, or population growth rate for that matter.

Re: http://opinion.inquirer.net/inquireropinion/columns/view/20110502-334122/A-war-of-religions The above article caused me to issue a major groan. I think Jesuit priest and constitutionalist Fr. Joaquin Bernas went overboard this time by wrongly framing the RH Bill debate as a war of religions. We prolife and anti-RH Bill advocates are against […]
