Manny Pacquiao: If my parents used a condom, I wouldn't be here now
- I firmly refute Honorable Manny Pacquiao’s statement. This utterance only shows how much importance this honorable lawmaker has for himself. Also, I believe that this is at a certain point insensitive and a dim-wit statement. Such claim only proves that he isn’t aware of the sufferings of those people especially children who are agonizing over the miseries of their lives being victims of irresponsible parenting, unjust society, etc. Do you think Congressman Manny; you would have the same stand if only you didn’t have any luck to be rich and famous? The issue is not about you, it’s about a number of lives totally different from yours.
"Bilang ama, ayoko po na turuan ang aking mga anak ng kalaswaan”
- Honorable Congressman Pacquiao, do you really understand what you say? What’s lewd about the RH Bill? I am afraid you don’t walk your talk. I will not apologize but I think you don’t have the credibility to even speak on this matter because I am sure you yourself is a condom user… This maybe is a personal question but when was the last time you used condom? What about the issues about your womanizing spree? Be a good example and I believe people will follow you.
Pacquiao also maintained that eradicating poverty, not passing the RH Bill, is the solution to poverty in the Philippines.
- Honorable Congressman, what workable interventions would you suggest so that poverty in our country can be eradicated ? I am not hopeless but eradication of poverty is a wishful thinking. I would agree with you Honorable Congressman if you used the word "alleviate" poverty at least.
"Sa aking paniniwala, labag po ito sa kautusan ng Panginoon”
- I believe that at some points the bill is quite in contradictory with the teaching of the Bible which says “go to the world and multiply.” However, I suggest that you study the issue more intently so you’d understand where the PRO-RH BILL are coming from. Why do you think it is against the teachings of God? Can you please justify your claim?
