Dear Honorable Senator -- we, the Filipino Freethinkers, are the people behind this. We were the ones who made the cardboard Pajeros and rode them in bishop's attire. It was we, along with fellow like-minded groups who banded with us to form a single movement, who showed our ire towards this glaring violation of Church-State separation the day of the Senate hearings.
Earlier, the Bantay Bishop movement was jumpstarted with a march to the Senate. Our main objective was to push for fairness in the Senate's treatment of the bishops, particularly in response to certain senators' assurance that these men of the cloth would be coddled like scared little children.
…my child should do whatever he damn well pleases when he grows up, no matter if his father and I blow our tops for whatever reason -- even and especially if we play the utang na loob card in a key moment of a desperation.
Ever since the whole business with the Reproductive Health Bill erupted, I've witnessed just how creative the Filipino people can become in trying to push an issue.
