DIVORCE … Why Not?
by: Rosie Luistro Founding President (currently in the Board of Advisers) Alliance for the Family Foundation Philippines, Inc. (ALFI) May 2015 1. Divorce in the Philippines is not legal but it looks like there are more couples getting an annulment. Isn’t this enough reason to legalize divorce? The increasing numbers may be due to a greater awareness of this procedure than before. We get to know more about annulments or separations today especially if they involve movie or society personalities. The media loves to elaborate on the details…

Remembering 12-12-12
Today, we commemorate with a sense of hope and sustained vigilance the infamy of 12-12-12, the day when congress passed in its second reading the Reproductive Health bill. Our top leaders have always allied themselves with those who harbor inimical sentiments and interests against Holy Mother Church; therefore it was never a coincidence that these men, who possess no fear of God nor shame for their wickedness, have decided that the RH bill should pass the crucial 2nd vote on the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe Herself. The victory was no means an easy one; even with the King’s…

There is No Justice in Justified Abortions
The pro-abortion lobby group WGNRR (Women’s Global Network on Reproductive Rights) has launched a signature campaign calling for Justice De Lima to revise the present criminal code in order to include provisions for ‘justified abortions.’ In their petition, justified abortions can be done under these conditions: 1. In case of incest or rape; 2. If the physical and emotional health of the mother is in danger; 3. If tests prove that the fetus will have a serious illness or deformity. It could be recalled that the WGNRR was one of the groups who pushed for the RH bill which is…
From Shame to Shameless
When Adam and Eve ate the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge, they realized that they were naked, and so they hid, making clothes out of fig leaves. When the models of Bench’s Naked Truth event burst into the catwalk last Saturday, they were almost naked, and barely clothed, save for some. The difference? They did not feel any shame. They were shameless. This is what Bench feels right now too. Shameless. Bench is laughing all the way to the bank because it used an old…
