    I am not against RH bill, and I am not pro abortion, it’s just I want to teach people lesson on giving birth among children whom they can’t support and will be like others begging on the streets and in the end be one of the government dependents. But I am not allowing manipulations or tricks just to fool us around, just to crash moral issues and other objections. I still believe in the moral values our late Pres. Cory imbued to our present president today and will do what is good for our country with due respect and transparency to all Filipino…

    Reproductive rights are one of the most divisive issues in our country today. Emotional appeals made by Conservatives lead many to believe abortions are being used as contraceptive by promiscuous young women who refuse to deal with the consequences of their actions. Pro- life arguments fail to acknowledge that abortions are a fundamental right afforded to women. Without the right to access safe contraceptives as well as safe and healthy abortions women no longer have a right to plan their futures.…

    In reality, the issue is just not about abortion. Personally, I am a supporter of the controversial RH bill because I believe that it would be advantageous to our nation in the long run; however, I am against abortion. Ironic isn’t it?

    Think not your country can give for you, hence think of what you can do toyour country, this is the famous quotation of John F. Kennedy which has something to do with the controversial R.H. Bill.Are we aware of this RH Bill that is about to become a law? What are its provisions that can help and harm us? Could this be the solution of economic problem in a family? There are many premonitions about RH Bill, one of these is the in human perspective of the church and also to some of the conservative groups; however there are also some that is positive to RH Bill which would agree that this bill must be a law. These pro of the RH bill are the people that would like to debate in order for the pursuance of the bill. But the question is, what is the concept of RH bill? Are the thoughts and time consuming effort of the congressmen would be worthy enough in the pursuance of RH Bill to become a law? And so before I will go deeper with my standing about RH Bill, I would like to emphasize that RH Bill has the same perspective with House bill #4244 an act providing for a comprehensive policy on responsible parenthood, reproductive health and population and development and Senate Bill # 2378 an act providing for a national policy on reproductive health and population and development.…

    Reproductive Health Bill: Killing Lives, Killing Minds. These will be the effects of the Bill in the lives of the people. Upon reading the content of the Bill, we have decided that we are anti-RH Bill. The Bill is not the answer of the outraging primary problems of our country. This Bill will only be dehumanizing the Philippine society in a way that it helps lose the sense of responsibility of each individual to others and even to his/herself. It has flaws that can lead to violations of human rights and freedom of conscience. It can bring a lot of bad changes to the lives of the people especially how they will live in this altered society. When this Bill will be implemented, contraceptives will be legalized and be given free to the citizens in this nation. Every student with their young age will be taught sex education as early as Grade Five. Finally, other methods of artificial contraception’s will be introduced to the public regardless of educational attainment and be legalized that can cause high percentage of sexually transmitted cases and other diseases. These contraception’s will not decrease the cases of STD and other diseases, instead, it will continuously rise. Do you think these are good implications of the aims of the Reproductive Health Bill?…

    Why Hate Rh Bill?

    • 846 Words
    • 4 Pages

    The Catholic Church has been talking about this and why this bill should not be passed. They are arguing that this promotes the artificial way of family planning without realizing that it is the right of the people to choose whether to do it or to practice the natural way. They keep on insisting that the usage of condoms can invoke people to have more sex and practice pre-marital sex, whereas the sex education takes place. Sex education is not a direct instruction on how to do sex, but it is information on what sex are, pros and cons of engaging into it or other matters alike. They also said that the availability of contraceptives may trigger the women to abort a child. But this is not the RH Bill is all about. We are against abortion but we are fighting for a choice, for a health care, for a better future. This is a basic need, especially for the women for they are the ones who get pregnant.…

    Reproductive Health Bill

    • 643 Words
    • 3 Pages

    The Reproductive Health Bill, popularly known as the RH Bill, is a Philippine bill promoting information on and access to both natural and modern family planning methods. The first time the Reproductive Health Bill was proposed was in 1998. During the present 15th Congress, the RH Bills filed are those authored by six members of the House of Representatives, and Senator Miriam Defensor-Santiago of the Senate. On January 31, 2011, these bills were consolidated into a single RH Bill which was then unanimously approved for plenary debate by the House Committee on Population and Family Relations. One of the main concerns of the bill is that the population of the Philippines makes it “the 12th most populous nation in the world today”, that the Filipino women’s fertility rate is “at the upper bracket of 206 countries.” It states that studies and surveys show “that the Filipinos are responsive to having smaller-sized families through free choice of family planning methods.” It also refers to studies which “show that rapid population growth exacerbates poverty while poverty spawns rapid population growth.” And so it aims for improved quality of life through a “consistent and coherent national population policy.”…
