im not against with fr.ed panlilio,rather not to believe him…i don’t think he’s not worthy for us the philippines…
in my own perspectives, state would be the state, religion could be in the state as a society but religion could take place when the state is not worthy of having the right moral values that we needing for us to build as a nation….
religion is for us to guide as of we have to believe God, how we will get through tough challlenges as we know how to pray…..and believe in him as of we have to believe in ourselves….
state has the sovereignity to stand up the tough changes in the country
and how will religion and state will come up as one as of there are things in different but one common purpose the people…..
fr.ed panlilio better think of this…
if ever he will be the president how will he give the spiritual mode for the people if he’s busy with the common challenges of the philippines….
if ever he would be the president,does he know about the present and current common problems of the philippines…is he capable of resolving these problems with the help of the constitutional laws…
he would take longer of studying matters in the constitutional aside of having an ideas in spiritual…
i mean that he will study and then will be slowly development of the philippines….
a repetition a tireless repetition…..of the government, back to zero….

Seem the same to me. The question is what do they do once they are in office, and if a Priest can break the strong vise of corruption that is the way business is conducted in the Philippines, he is a very valuable MAN indeed. The constitution already separates church from state, but the current government is inclined not to pay much attention to the constitution. A priest with good values is far from appalling to me, and I belong to no church. Joe John,

If, in a scale of 1 to 10, he gets 9, the endorsement is in order. But if it falls below the bar, forget the priest. With Panlilio sort of revered, all the rest become 'demonized' as though the rest of the pack are all men of evil motive. These are the excesses of too much religion it became part of some stereotypical attitude. I know what empty rhetorics is when I hear one.

there is a priest who is the board president of his electricity cooperative:

so, what is the fundamental difference between this and any other elected official?

more questions: can a priest do other jobs, while leading a parish?

why can’t a priest get married?

i’m curious, and i want to talk to a filipino priest who knows cannon law…
