presidents / albb / skyeeline:
WHAT COULD BE THE EFFECT OF RH BILL IN CASE IT WILL BE APPROVED?
I remember this RH BILL was a topic which was discussed to us two years ago and here it rises again. That time, I don’t fully understand what does this RH BILL means. According to an online copy, RH BILL is AN ACT PROVIDING FOR A NATIONAL POLICY ON REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH, RESPONSIBLE PARENTHOOD AND POPULATION DEVELOPMENT, AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES. Today, at our morality class it was again, opened.
What will happen if RH BILL will be signed by our President? Here are the possible effects from this act, if legalized.
- DIVORCE - According to Wikipedia, Divorce (or the dissolution of marriage) is the final termination of a marital union, cancelling the legal duties and responsibilities of marriage and dissolving the bonds of matrimony between the parties. If this will be legalized, many families will be broken. Possibly, many children will be abandoned, left or worse, aborted.
- EUTHANASIA - Also known as Mercy Killing. The old population of our country will be killed when they lose utility to the society. They wont be killed once but they’ll be killed slowly like placing chemicals on their food until they become weak and eventually die. Who are you to say that a man’s life stops there when he loses utility to the society? Are you God to say that?
- ABORTION - So if this mercy killing will be legalized, for sure abortion will be also one of it’s effect. If you don’t like the child, you are free to chose if you’ll keep the child or simply abort it.
- TWO-CHILD POLICY - Simply, this bill is trying to break down our populace. The Philippines has a strong population and I strongly believe to the quote “Ang kabataan ay ang pag-asa ng bayan”. Haven’t you noticed what do other countries import from us? Not rice, crops, nor gems but MANPOWER. Our country is very rich with human resources and if time comes that there will be a larger population of seniors than children, possibly, the economy can go down and fluctuate.
- HOMOSEXUALITY - According to the bible God hasn’t allowed to same sexes to join together though in our country, homosexuality is starting to be accepted but still, they should be what they are at first and be contented with what they have.
- SAME-SEX MARRIAGE - If a priest refuses to marry a homosexual couples the couple will have a power to demand the priest to court and file a case. Again, according to the bible only a man and a woman are legible to marriage.
Yes, we know that every individual has their own rights and they can freely do what they’ll want to do but in this case, as a Catholic country, it’s just fair for the church to contradict the plans of our government because here, we’re talking about the morale of an individual.
I was also reminded on what has the late Pope John Paul II had said: “There will come a time that there will be an anti-christ president”. I’m scared on what could possibly happen to my generation and to my children’s generation if this bill is legalized. I don’t like to lose my morals and the moral of the people around me.
If we care, we should think.
Wait, what?
Are you serious?
Are you a troll?
Is this real life.
P.S. I’m totally for the RH bill. I am too tired and frustrated to make a proper reply, but I basically disagree with everything listed here.
Seriously! Did they really think people would get on their side or even consider their side with such arguments? The one about homosexuality is crazy. I am a Catholic though I don’t really practice my faith and I don’t really concern myself with it (this is a different argument altogether) but I do believe in a power higher than all of us (which doesn’t really refer to God or Allah or whoever).
But this is all I know: God wants us to be happy and I see that there is no happiness living in a country filled with children who can’t even go to school, eat three times a day, devoid of the necessities of life because their parents cannot afford it. Church, we are not living in the medieval times anymore. What pisses me off here is how close-minded the church has been regarding this issue. They are making it look like as if their stand is the be all and end all to this.
^WHAT SHE SAID. THAT’S EXACTLY MY POINT.
