Hi CAF,
I know this is a rather tall order for you, guys, but we need your prayers. Currently, our government is discerning the passage of RH Bill No. 5043 aka Reproductive Health Bill. This bill aims to guarantee universal access to birth control and maternal care as form of population control and exacerbates poverty.
The bill has divided our country. The Catholic Church deems the bill against God’s laws. As of late, the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) said they would rather be jailed for civil disobedience than to turn a blind eye if it is signed into law.

*The CBCP objections
Here is the Catholic Bishops Conference pastoral letter’s list of the prelates’ basic objections to the RH bill:
1. We object to the non-consideration of moral principles, the bedrock of law, in legislative discussions of bills that are intended for the good of individuals and for the common good.
2. We are against the anti-life, anti-natal and contraceptive mentality that is reflected in media and in some proposed legislative bills.
3. We object strongly to efforts at railroading the passage of the RH bill.
4. We denounce the over-all trajectory of the RH bill towards population control.
5. We denounce the use of public funds for contraceptives and sterilization.
6. We condemn compulsory sex education that would effectively let parents abdicate their primary role of educating their own children, especially in an area of life—sexuality—which is a sacred gift of God.
