On the RH bill

[keedowshkee]

Last I read, here's what the RH Bill pushes for:

(1) Provisions for healthcare, especially for women who are giving birth,
(2) Mandated access to family planning supplies, covered by Philhealth for the poor,
(3) Encouragement of family planning as a means to combat poverty

sad part is...the people who are actually against this (and obviously have the power to stop this bill from passing) are the ones who need it least. while the ones who needs this bill passed most has no voice and not much avenue to express their support. sobrang out of touch yung anti-RH people sa reality xP tapos wala naman silang ma-offer na alternative solution.

add to that the influence the anti-rh people have over other people. the media seems to report that majority of people are pro-rh now, so there might be hope...

off-topic: isa ka sa iilan na lang na nagco-comment pa dito. XD

they have been reporting the fact that majority of the country supports the RH bill (last news I read says by a landslide...like 90% or something) for years and yet the Church (and anti-RH people) still thinks otherwise...talk about out of touch sa reality xP and I bet the Church will argue na it doesn't necessarily mean na tama ang majority xP na the Church is right because God says so. puh-lease. as i always say, why should I listen to celibates/pedophiles/people having kids out of wedlock and all these priests' and other people's views about sex? for all i know they know next to nothing about it and/or they have a twisted, unrealistic view about it. i could go on and on about how oblivious the Church and its supporters are about what our country really needs and what is right for our people...kaya lang masyado nang mahaba comment ko lol
