Rh Bill
Title: RH Bill: A Necessity?
Author: By Lara Jeunesse Villaruel source: http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Lara_Jeunesse_Villaruel http://ezinearticles.com/?RH-Bill:-A-Necessity?&id=5317730 Summary and Main Idea: The article is all about the Reproductive Health Bill's worthiness. It is said here that this bill will require the government to fund the devices such as pills and IUD's that will be used in controlling the population. We all know that poverty is visible to big families. The government doesn't want this to happen anymore. That's why they are pushing this but, the Catholic Bishop's Council of the Philippines is not agreeing with this. They said that through this RH Bill many human beings will be killed and there will be abortion, more adultery, female impoverishment and the like.
New ideas learned: This article taught me that if you have a bigger family there's a big probability that you may undergo poverty than having a small one. My outlook towards having a big family changed because they said before that it would be better if you're going to have many siblings because in the future they will be a great help.
Words from the text that I want to use in my own writing: I want to use the words impoverishment and deleterious in my own writing next time because it is my first time to read these words.
Ideas I agree/disagree with: I agree with the CBCP's decision in rejecting this bill because yes, it is really true that whenever you use condoms, pills and other birth control stuff you kill a human being. I don't want to be a killer. I am sure that if you are a hygienic person you can still prevent sex-related diseases.
Reactions and Comments: Actually I am a Pro but after reading this article i realized that there are other ways. This article gave me an idea that the government may use this bill for corruption because they will use our fund here. They may be not be honest in implementing this bill. One more thing, whatever angle you looked at this

    Banking on the potentials of the said bill to drastically minimize the ballooning population of the country, the Aquino administration openly admitted its all-out support for the bill’s being enacted into law. This could be done, as the bill suggests, through maintaining feedom of informed choice wherein parents, couples and women enjoy the liberty or option of choosing from a menu of modern natural and artificial family planning methods which are medically safe, legal, accessible, affordable and effective. This caused the moralist groups, headed by the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines, to react violently. They expressed apprehensions that such a bill was by nature promoting looser morals that would eventually lead to a morally-corrupt society. The inculcation of sex education in the academic curriculum is simply unorthodoxical, and as such, is morally unacceptable.…

    The RH bill would cause much higher prices of commodities and health care products in the Philippines because of the fact that businesses and hospitals would be compelled to offset the RH care expenses that they are going to pay for their workers. This bill is not good for everybody, as it would create a wave of economic regulations and controls. This might also cause the government to issue price controls and other regulatory edicts so to prevent companies and even hospitals from raising the prices of their products and services!…

    The disadvantage of the Reproductive Health Bill in the Philippines is the undue focus being given to reproductive health and population and development, when many more urgent and important health problems need to be addressed in the country, those that cause a significant number of deaths across the country such as cardiovascular diseases and infections. Financial resources allotted by foreign donors to assist the Philippine government programs could actually be better spent towards pursuing health programs targeting communicable diseases than purchasing artificial contraceptives.…

    The P3 billion allotted funding in the RH bill can be issued to build houses for the poor, feeding programs, and build new classrooms. But these said allotment for the P3 billion is it worth it? Feeding programs is great and all, but can the poor can only have a belly full in a day. But solving the issue of overpopulation can help each and every one of us. The P3 billion pesos are small in terms of the success the bill will have. And can probably save our problem in overpopulation.…

    The main purpose of Reproductive Health Bill or RH Bill is to provide family planning especially to the poor families and safe contraceptives to the people. It also helps prevent overpopulation which causes famine and poverty in our country Philippines. Furthermore, it helps prevent the abortion in the society. The government is in favor of the bill while the Roman Catholic Church is not, because they said that the bill is a hindrance to the life given by the Almighty God and they are against this bill, because it prevents the production of life which is against the law of God and according to them, they only prevent life which God has given us.…

    I am in favor of the Reproductive Health Bill/RH Bill, not because I don’t believe in God or I disobey His rules but let’s open our eyes on our countries status. As of now our country is growing and continues to grow. We are in number 65 out of 144 economies in the world. But, as you can see, we are still behind when regards to economic growth. I don’t believe those who say that over population is not a problem. Because, I do believe that overpopulation is a big, big problem. The Philippines is having a large population. And this large population is admittedly one of the main causes of our poverty since the government had difficulty in addressing the needs of its people. The population of the Philippines makes it “the 12th most populous nation in the world today”. RH Bill assures the availability and access to a full range of methods, techniques, supplies and services that contribute to reproductive and sexual health and well-being. With these, our number will become manageable and eventually, our country will be in progress. RH bill doesn’t promote abortion but it rather prevents abortion. The RH bill protects the life of the both the mother and the baby in her womb. Supporting the bill is more PRO-LIFE. Life begins at fertilization. Therefore, if there’s no fertilization, there’s no life. The use of artificial contraception is not taking away life because life has not yet started.…

    When I hear the RH Bill, What comes to my mind? I must say that I am in favor to this law in the Philippines . This law means having control of the growing population in the Philipines and this will lessen poverty due to the lesser family members. The law states that the people has choices to pick in starting a family like contraceptives, condoms, pills, IUD. This Bill will help people much especially the uneducated ones to know more information about family planning, prevention of abortion, sex education, prevention of HIV/AIDS and others. The poorest family may have the biggest family, now is the time for them to give education about controlling by approving this bill. I think this bill was aimed to the poor ones because they are the ones who cannot support their family and most of them has no education, this means more problem. This helps us to make the lives of the filipino future to be more productive. We are already in a modern world, many of the people know about sex. Even out of wed lock have sex, even friends have sex but the bill helps to control having birth and being safe. Most especially teens, they are the one mostly who are engaging in sex. By giving them proper explanation by their parents to be responsible and do what is right, do you think that their children will listen? Well, it’s up to them but parents should always be reminding their children to do what is wrong from right. Why do others are against it? Maybe because it’s also against the Roman Catholic Church and the beliefs of other groups. But people has their own right what they will do and what they want to believe and use.…

    RH Bill covers the promotion of contraceptives to prevent early pregnancy and the avoidance of sudden increase of country’s population. It was passed by the congress and still in the process of voting and approval of the senate. The Catholic Church is alarmed with this matter and strongly disagrees because it disobeys the scriptures of God. It thwarts the life of a person, specifically a baby to live.…

    Reaction : Rhbill

    • 321 Words

    As a student, a teen and a follower of the church, I do not agree in the passing of the Reproductive Health Bill in our country. It is because I think the Reproductive Health Bill indirectly decreases the morality of people. It also teaches us how to use condoms or pills for safe sexual intercourse or for family planning. Even though we all know that it does not work 100%, there are still some who use it. For me it promotes abortion because they are preventing the development of a child, indirectly killing it. This opposes one of the church teachings, one of the Ten Commandments to be exact. And also, I do not agree with the passing of the bill because the Philippines is a Catholic country and defying the church teachings means denouncing our faith. Despite these circumstances, the president still agreed to this. They think that approving the RH bill can help lessen the over population and the decreasing of resources. For me, even though this idea is practical yet it is idiotic because they are only thinking of the positive effects and ignoring the negative effects. If I were in his shoes, I will promote the natural way of family planning so that there will be no argument between the church and the government. And an evil deed cannot be solved by another evil or this may cause another major problem. And also to those who promote the RH bill, I think they should clear their heads and start thinking for the sake of not only the majority but also to those who will be affected of the negative effects of the bill. And finally, I think that approving this bill will make the contraceptives over the counter. This allows minors or even innocent people to buy this kind of stuffs. And maybe, just maybe this can be the cause of liberation of the future…
