i happen to have found this article talking about a plan to control the population of Davao through family planning and proper education. Lo and behold the church had something to say about it and i find it quite offensive. It disregards the country's problem and puts personal belief over the people's actual need and crisis. here's the article and try to read the comments of the archbishop.
Duterte slams “God’s antiquated policy” on population
DAVAO CITY — Davao city Mayor Rodrigo Duterte defended the revised Local Development Plan for Children (LDPC) against questions raised by the Catholic Church on its reproductive health and safe pregnancy program.
“God’s policy is antiquated and it cannot help the people who are reeling from poverty,” Duterte said during his weekly television program “Gikan sa Masa para sa Masa.” “We should study the situation of our country,” Duterte said. “There are families who have ten or twelve children but their parents cannot feed them because they don’t have jobs.”
The LDPC contains the city’s four-year platform of actions in response to the needs and rights of the city’s children. It seeks to address the deficits in the implementation of children’s survival, protection, development and participation rights as part of the city’s comprehensive development plan and the Philippine long term development plan for children.
But the Catholic Church believes that the LDPC offends the Catholic faith and the religious sentiments of the people because of its provision that promotes full access to affordable services and accurate information on safe pregnancies among the long-term goals for the survival rights of the child.
“The plan mocks parental authority, belittles the value of family, denigrates the virtue of chastity and makes available all contraceptives to children from 0-18 years old and promotes premarital sex and promiscuity,” Davao Archbishop Fernando Capalla said in a pastoral statement entitled ‘An appeal to the Davao city mayor and to the City Council.’
He said the LDPC is “dangerous” and “detrimental” to the moral and “spiritual welfare” of the people.
In the same statement, Capalla said that if government officials approve and implement the LDPC with “open defiance and ridicule of the Church’s moral teachings, they will be unworthy to receive the Sacraments.”
Capalla said overpopulation is not the real cause of poverty but greed, unjust laws, unjust structures, unfair labor practices and unjust distribution of land and social services.
“I don’t want to quarrel with the bishop, the priests or the nuns,” Duterte said.
The mayor said he is against abortion because it contravenes his Christian values and the Philippine laws. He also said that no mayor is crazy enough to distribute condoms to minors.
But he said that there is no need for the local government and the Catholic Church to have a dialogue because there is a separation between Church and State. He said that his government is not only for the Catholics but also for the Muslims and people from other religious beliefs.
Councilor Angela Librado-Trinidad earlier said that the plan does not encourage abortion. May Fe Templa, Librado’s consultant, said the plan does not encourage sex and promiscuity but only teaches children awareness on reproductive system.
“Capalla is misinforming the public on LDPC,” said Honey Mae Suazo, executive secretary of Kabiba, an alliance of children’s concerns. “Did he really read the strategic plan for children?” she asked.
Suazo said the LDPC is a doable action plan that only aims to protect and strengthen families and children.
The revised LDPC supports the efforts of parents, child care and development workers, non government organizations and communities to the nurture and care for children, from infancy, the earliest stages of childhood until adolescence through a four-year program that will focus on the survival, protection, participation and development rights of children.
Librado-Trinidad said the family and the barangay (village) are part of the implementing arm of the revised LDPC, hence, there is nothing to fear in its implementation, she said. City Hall will come up with the implementing rules for the LDPC. City Hall will come up with the implementing rules for the LDPC. (Marilou M. Aguirre/davaotoday.com)

Welcome Jon Alfred Pabillaran, here is your handwriting analysis.
Jon Alfred has difficulty making decisions. His mind changes constantly. He lives in an emotional tug of war. Jon Alfred could be described like a thermometer. Today warm and friendly, yet tomorrow he may be distant and cold, not wanting to be close to anyone.
Some research indicates that people with a severe variety in the slant of their handwriting have an inability to tolerate sugar and are suffering the side-effects of too much sugar in their diet. If moods swings are a reoccurring issue, investigate the diet.
If Jon Alfred encounters a situation he cannot handle he frequently pulls into himself. He feels his emotions are secure if he is withdrawn. When he has solved the problem he can be very outgoing and again need other people's companionship. Some see Jon Alfred as very moody, but it it would be more accurate to say he has two complete personalities that he chooses depending on the circumstance. This type of person is often hard to understand because no one knows what personality he is exhibiting today. He may not be bothered by something one minute, then the next minute become upset at the same thing. It is very difficult to pin down Jon Alfred's emotional expressiveness.
Uncanny
People that write their letters in an average height and average size are moderate in their ability to interact socially. According to the data input, Jon Alfred doesn't write too large or too small, indicating a balanced ability to be social and interact with others.
Jon Alfred will demand respect and will expect others to treat him with honor and dignity. Jon Alfred believes in his ideas and will expect other people to also respect them. He has a lot of pride.
Kinda True
Jon Alfred will be candid and direct when expressing his opinion. He will tell them what he thinks if they ask for it, whether they like it or not. So, if they don't really want his opinion, don't ask for it!
Sometimes but i try not to be as opinionated as some people. (cough* kyla* cough*) hahaha
Jon Alfred can be defiant. He sometimes has the attitude that if someone doesn't like it the way he is doing it, then they can just "go to hell!" This trait may reveal itself in a rebellious nature that is always ready to resist forces which he thinks are infringing upon his freedom of action.
In reference to Jon Alfred's mental abilities, he has a very investigating and creating mind. He investigates projects rapidly because he is curious about many things. He gets involved in many projects that seem good at the beginning, but he soon must slow down and look at all the angles. He probably gets too many things going at once. When Jon Alfred slows down, then he becomes more creative than before. Since it takes time to be creative, he must slow down to do it. He then decides what projects he has time to finish. Thus he finishes at a slower pace than when he started the project.
He has the best of two kinds of minds. One is the quick investigating mind. The other is the creative mind. His mind thinks quick and rapidly in the investigative mode. He can learn quicker, investigate more, and think faster. Jon Alfred can then switch into his low gear. When he is in the slower mode, he can be creative, remember longer and stack facts in a logical manner. He is more logical this way and can climb mental mountains with a much better grip.
Jon Alfred is a practical person whose goals are planned, practical, and down to earth. This is typical of people with normal healthy self-esteem. He needs to visualize the end of a project before he starts. he finds joy in anticipation and planning. Notice that I said he plans everything he is going to do, that doesn't necessarily mean things go as planned. Jon Alfred basically feels good about himself. He has a positive self-esteem which contributes to his success. He feels he has the ability to achieve anything he sets his mind to. However, he sets his goals using practicality-- not too "out of reach". He has enough self-confidence to leave a bad situation, yet, he will not take great risks, as they relate to his goals. A good esteem is one key to a happy life. Although there is room for improvement in the confidence catagery, his self-perception is better than average.
One way Jon Alfred punishes himself is self directed sarcasm. He is a very sarcastic person. Often this sarcasm and "sharp tongued" behavior is directed at himself.
This is perfect!!!
Jon Alfred has a temper. He uses this as a defense mechanism when he doesn't understand how to handle a situation. Temper is a hostile trait used to protect the ego. Temper can be a negative personality trait in the eyes of those around him.
I never had a temper!!!
Jon Alfred has a healthy imagination and displays a fair amount of trust. He lets new people into his circle of friends. He uses his imagination to understand new ideas, things, and people.
Jon Alfred exaggerates about everything that has a physical nature. Although he may not intend to deceive or mislead, he blows things way out of proportion because that is the way he views them. He will be a good story teller. This exaggeration relates to all areas of his material world. Jon Alfred allows many people into his life because he is accepting and trusting. He is sometimes called gullible by his friends. That only really means that he trusts too many people. Jon Alfred has a vivid imagination.
Jon Alfred has a very unusual lower zone y loop. If the data input is correct, Jon Alfred's y or g is large and opens up to the left side of the page. This is not a common trait, but the implications are very interesting. As you begin to study handwriting analysis, you will learn any loop indicates imagination. This lower loop indicates the amount of imagination Jon Alfred has regarding sex and physical things. So, his lower zone stroke is large, so his sexual imagination is large and open. Furthermore, because the loop is incomplete and extends to the left, this indicates a particular fascination with certain aspects of sexuality that have not been fulfilled, yet. In a nutshell, Jon Alfred is open to some very new ideas sexually and is willing to try anything once.
I find this hilarious!!!
For a graphologist, the spacing on the page reflects the writer's attitude toward their own world and relationship to things in his or her own space. If the inputted data was correct Jon Alfred has left some white space on the left side of the paper. Jon Alfred fills up the rest of the page in a normal fashion moving the entire writing rightward as he moves down the page. If this is true, then Jon Alfred has a healthy relationship to the past and is ready to move on. The right side of the page represents the future and Jon Alfred is ready and willing to get started living now and planning for the future. Jon Alfred is leaving the past behind and moving on to what he perceives as an exciting and enticing future.
ready to move on?? maybe.. nyaha
