CBCP warns of ‘Catholic vote’ vs RH bill advocates
RH bill advocates endorsing ‘ethnic cleansing’ – bishop
MANILA, Philippines -- An official of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) is urging the faithful to use the “Catholic vote” in choosing their rightful leaders this coming 2013 polls.
In an interview with Radio Veritas, CBCP-Episcopal Commission on Family and Life Vice Chairman and Lipa Archbishop Ramon Arguelles said it is high time that Filipinos use their religious beliefs in rejecting candidates who are not following the Church’s teachings.
He said elective officials have long been snubbing the so-called “Catholic vote,” which he believes is still a force to be reckoned with.
“Kaya kapag mayroong kandidato na hindi sumusunod sa utos ng Diyos, dapat tanggihan yung mga 'yun. At kailangan na magkaroon ngayon ng Catholic vote. Dapat ipakita natin ang pagiging tunay na Katoliko. Marami diyan ay mga pekeng Katoliko, yun ang naghahari sa atin,” Arguelles said.
He said the “ethnic cleansing” being promoted by some officials can be countered via a Catholic vote.
“Ethnic cleansing itong ginagawa nila kung bakit isinusulong ang [reproductive health] bill sa bansa. Gusto nilang ubusin tayo. Kaya ang mga Katoliko ay bumoto ayon sa utos ng Diyos,” he said.
Both the House of Representatives and the Senate are in their respective periods of amendment for the controversial RH bill. The CBCP earlier said it will endorse candidates who are pro-life.
In a separate interview with dzRB, deputy presidential spokesperson Abigail Valte said: “We are in no position to comment on the matter. Hindi nakikialam ang estado sa mga ganyan.”
Opinion: Catholic Vote for Pro-Life and Anti-RH Bill..
First and foremost, the Archbishop knows that there are fake Catholics, how's that? why? .And why they said that “Ethnic cleansing itong ginagawa nila kung bakit isinusulong ang [reproductive health] bill sa bansa. Gusto nilang ubusin tayo. Kaya ang mga Katoliko ay bumoto ayon sa utos ng Diyos,”? ubusin? that's their own point-of-view..mali bang mag-karoon ng family planning? and sa RH-Bill ba may papatayin? hala!!!!
By the way, off-topic na ako. I just wanna say that Goodluck to your Catholic voting as if kaya nyo pasunudin ang mga miyembro nyo, your members na nga nagsasabi na Democratic Nation tayo kaya wala karapatan ang simbahan na mag-turo kung sinu ang iboboto nila..one more thing, let me think the way you think about the Iglesia Ni Cristo voting, na nag-papalakas lng kami sa Gobyerno ng Sanlibutan.. for your info, we have our own government :) ..
