An Open Letter from Pro-Life Philippines
The events of the past few months have left no shadow of doubt that there is indeed something critically wrong with the leadership of this country. Our nation has been devastated by two terrible natural disasters weeks apart. While we have no clear numbers on the number of deaths, the destruction caused by both the earthquake in Bohol and especially Typhoon Yolanda has been total. We were saddened by your apparent refusal to use government funds to rebuild the churches in Bohol; after all, these are…

The rally, which ensued in a peaceful and patriotic…
