Disturbing the Peace (In Ayala Alabang)

My name is Jay Ignacio, an atheist who used to be a recording artist with Sony Music back in 1996. I am a founding member of the Silly People’s Improv Theatre (SPIT). I worked for Cheche Lazaro’s Probe Productions, Inc. back in 1997; taught Recording Technology and Sound Design at College of Saint Benilde; worked as Executive Chef for Chef Cuisine Catering Company, in charge of their Italian menus. Now I am venturing in to documentary film making, and my first project is called “The Bladed Hand: A Documentary On The Global Impact Of The Filipino Martial Arts”.

I am in the final editing stage of this docu which I plan to premiere in Manila by July this year, but I was sidetracked by recent events in my neighborhood. I spent 8 years in Southridge, from Grade 4 to 4th Year High School and am no big fan of Opus Dei and the Catholic Church.

I’d like to share with you two videos I made pertaining to the now infamous Ordinance #1-2011 that our Baranggay Most Holy have decided to come up with, and I hope the rest of the country does not follow in the footsteps of these oh-so-saintly Council Members who have violated the law in the name of Religion.

Enjoy!

  1. you may agree to the the barangay ordinance No. 1, but in ONE CONDITION…ALL CHILDREN BORN AFTER THE BARANGAY ORDINANCE #1 SHOULD BE THE WARD OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH UP TO AT LEAST 22 YEARS, AND THIS INCLUDES FOOD, SHELTER, CLOTHING, MEDICINES, WELLNESS HEALTH PROGRAMS, EDUCATION UP TO COLLEGE LEVEL AND ANY HOSPITALIZATION….simple lang di ba?

  2. Pimentel's ramblings are almost too painful to hear. Same old tired misconceptions that contraceptives encourage promiscuous sex. So if you eliminate contraceptives you eliminate promiscuous sex? No, you just end up with promiscuous sex leading to unplanned pregnancies.

    It's like banning the sale of fire extinguishers thinking that it will lessen the incidence of fires because it will make people more "careful".

  3. why cant they see what the country needs the most? why do they linger on ideas from the past and turn their backs on what is really happening? are they blind or just being paid really well?
