But that influence is waning, and perhaps nowhere is that more visible in the end of a decade-long battle to enact legislation providing for free contraceptives to the country's residents. Global Health Thu, 21 Feb 2013 22:54:26 -0600 The Catholic Church has no bussiness PREVENTING anyone,Especilly PHILIPINO Young Population from practicing CONTRACEPTION. SO many "SINGLE " moms, in philipines its pathetic and disgusting; what the Church Needs to do is INSTRUCT all its people since they are going to **** anyway, to at the very least USE condoms or some kind of PROTECTION, its more INMORAL and of no HUMAN VALUE to keep making babies which are not taken care of properlly because of economics or ignorance on the part of the Participants. Lets not even forget all the Priests who have acted as what they really are JUST SIMPLE WEAK MEAT- HEADS hiding behind the veil of Christianity, ... its not the RELIGION which is bad JUST the IDIOTS running it and WORST the folks who think the CHURCH has any divine direction at all .. PLEASE ? All those horny priests thru the ages, LETS GET REAL: USING CONTRACEPTION MAKES SENSE NOT USING CONTRACEPTION IS INMORAL AND INJUST .. Let the Church worry how to stay afloat and allow its People to be smart .. NOTHING wrong with FUCKING but please use CONTRACEPTION .. Thanx http://Yahoo.com Global Health Wed, 06 Mar 2013 11:37:30 -0600 The Philippines will forever be a third world country, when it's people constantly have to go abroad to feed its population. Catholic religion has not helped. It only prolong the Spanish rule after the centuries of making the populace into indolent souls to keep them subject to the authority of the church.
