Given its track record, the Church is no better a moral guardian than a wolf is a shepherd.

Comprehensive sex and STD/HIV education programs are the way to go as evidenced by Dr. Douglas Kirby’s dissertation cited above. It is part of the solution both in curbing the rise of STD cases and controlling overpopulation. ----- One may read: Promoting Reproductive Health: A Unified Strategy to Achieve the MDGs Notable in the document is that the conservatives have their misconception:

The six-year mandatory sexuality and RH education is being questioned by conservative groups, pointing out that allowing young people access to RH information and services will encourage promiscuity and that the State should not take over the role of parents in educating their children on sexuality.

This has to be supplanted by the fact that:

Cross-country evidence from the UNFPA, however, show that sex education among the youth lead to responsible behavior, higher levels of abstinence, later initiation of sexuality, higher use of contraception and fewer sexual partners.

Teka muna, ang gawa ng Pinoy sa Pilipinas hindi katulad ng gawa ng mga Ugandans sa Afrika. Aba, talagang ubod na sikat ang Pilipinas dahil kristiyanong kristiyano ang bayang magiliw.

The gift was a book that contains such mentioned wise words, and more wise words, such as,”Thou shalt not steal”, “Thou shalt not romance your neighbors wife, or girls not your wife”, and other such wise words, but NOT “Thou shall not use a condom or such abominable contrivances…” which was unfair of the bishop’s dipping in hell one of Dra. Cabral’s foot but not throwing in the cauldron of hell those thieves and womanizers high in government.

And here’s a similar one: “What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his soul.”

I was in LA last September and bought a few items at the Eagle Rock mall. Nandoon ang Jollibee, Chow King, Goldilocks, Burger King, at may tinadahan ng bombay na puro Pacquiao t-shirt ang benta. Daming pinoy paroo’t parito. At sa gitna ng pasilyo may aleng nagkakaraoke na bumabanat ng Whitney Houston. Hindi kaya ito pinoy occupation of America na? Kaya siguro narito si Joe sa Pinas. At sa dami na ng OFW, pati China, Russia, Greenland at Antartica meron na, at continue pa rin ang over production ng mga babies, dahil bawal ang kondom, kaya hindi malayong ma take over ng pinoy ang buong mundo. Aaaay, huwag naman sana. Baka sila magaya sa election natin.

Sex, per se, is either moral or immoral, ethical or unethical.

Even consensual sex does not necessarily make the act moral or ethical simply because two parties consented to the act. This applies to cases where there are both legal and moral impediments to consensual sex between two parties into the act but are bound by their marital contracts.

So it is not true what the dissenter says.

Again, even while the Church does not pay for the cost of public health services, it does not frustrate its advocating the moral norm in the affairs of men.

That said, the dissenter may have to reconsider the position he embraced.

LOOK, it’s simple really:

The Catholic Church is NOT PAYING FOR THE COST OF PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICES. nada, zilch, zero.

The church does NOT build hospitals, it does NOT contribute to vaccine research, NOR does it pay for the rearing of children. It talks, but it does not walk where it matters.

It’s the TAXPAYER funded GOVERNMENT which has the sordid task of ACTUALLY keeping its population sustainable and healthy.

This is why when the Pope himself said the same things the CBCP is saying now, the state leaders of France, Germany, and Belgium told him very publicly to shut the fk up.
