Rh Law?
Open your Eyes to Reality
As Mother Therese said, “It is poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish.” Also Pres. P Noy said, “kung walang corrupt, walang mahirap.” Our country is blessed with natural resources that have the ability to support its people’s needs and wants, only if we be more decisive with using these natural resources of ours. I do not think that the Philippines is over-populated; the only reason why we think we are over-populated is because many of our countrymen move to the urban cities to find ways to support their needs, that is why NCR is very “crowded”. Also the reason why we are at crisis, why we are experiencing poverty is because of the abusive “authorities” we have. Ironic isn’t it? The person whose duty is to uplift our society is the complete opposite and becomes the reason for our down fall. They were blinded and overcome by wealth, power, or authority. We linger too much to the problem and we do not or forget to focus on the solution to the dilemma. We think that our crisis is over-population when the real problem is the lack of self-discipline and the ability to be decisive with our decisions and actions. What we need to focus on is how to mold our people to be more “realistic” with the choices they choose.
I stand and care for the QUALITY of life, not the QUANTITY alone. As stated in Psalm 127:3, "Truly children are a gift from the Lord; the fruit of the womb is a reward.” We should not let these gifts of God be “wasted” and not given importance. But it is evident in the goal of the RH law to defy and contradict the Bible. Supporters of the RH law insist that it is not abortion; it is a mere prevention of “unwanted pregnancy.” But I believe it is otherwise; Abortion is preventing any kind of life form to be conceived inside the women, which is, as we all know, a purpose of RH law. Also allowing the use of “condoms” can be degrading to women. Men may use women as an object for pleasure; used to be

    Poverty is a pressing issue here in the Philippines. There are so many people who live below the poverty line, and there is a huge discrepancy when it comes to wealth distribution in the Philippines. Only a few actually are the ones who are truly rich at the expense of the majority of the population. There are many reasons why this is so: Our elected officers are also the ones who own most of the land, so it creates…

    Abortion should unquestionably not be used as a primary birth control use. It should be determined based on the circumstances of the pregnancy. A woman should have the choice to have an abortion if she is raped, impregnated by a disturbed man or by incest. It would be unfair to force a rape victim to bear an unwanted baby and give up all the dreams she ever had and be reminded of that rape for the rest of her life. I also think a woman’s life should not be sacrificed or put at risk, a woman should be able to abort if there is any complications or a risk to her life and a threat to the baby’s life. It would be morally wrong to bring to this world a severely deformed, extremely handicapped, or an incompetent baby and watch him or her suffer for the rest of their lives. That would not only affect the mother’s life, but that would affect the baby’s life also. That child would never be average, never be happy and would feel sad for not being like the other children. It takes so much energy, will power, dedication, prayers and money to…

    Causes of Poverty

    Overpopulation is the situation of having large numbers of people with too few resources and too little space, which is closely associated with poverty. Overpopulation is the ‘mother-problem’. This problem is present in most of the countries where poverty is involved. Poverty rises when food resources aren’t sufficient to satisfy the daily needs of those people. Also, the governments of developing countries often provide little or no support, financially or family planning. Some developing countries tend to have high rates of population growth. Between 1999 and 2011, the world’s population increased by 1 billion, states the ‘Population Institute’.…

    Abortion Legal or Illegal

    • 613 Words
    • 3 Pages

    I believe abortion shouldn’t be legal at all because in the Bible it states in Exodus 20:13 the 6th commandment of God’s word states “Thou Shall Not Kill”. So I believe in the word and that God also Created all men equal which means defying of what God states would be a sin and will be condemned for disobeying the word of God. I also believe that there are many couples around the United States that can’t conceive a child so aborting a child who is not wanted is also a way of getting rid of responsibilities God has chosen to give that person. I also believe that women who have been raped did not want to be pregnant in remembrance of the man who raped her and conceived that child. I believe that undergoing a morning after Contraceptive would be a good alternative but, also carrying that child full term to allow a family who can’t have kids raises this child.…

    For more than years, Philippine is saddled with huge challenges on how to find a concrete strategy to cope up economic depression, mainly the main reason that analysts could see is the drastic population density that leads to various implications like poverty (the main symptoms of having overpopulation and every country’s problem that almost all cannot resolved), poor governance that results rampant corruption from public officials, colonial mentality also blocks progression (results from low market acceptance which forces the local firms to withdraw from doing business), exhaustion of natural resources made by the business sectors for production and the community as well for survival, are all resulting to vast economic regression that hinders development in the country.…

    Given this premise, with the Philippines having a high rate of population growth, why is it that it has low per capita income? According to Dr. Abola and Dr. Villegas, “Man is the ultimate resource. But in order to be truly one, he has to be employed”. With labor surplus, Philippine economic policies need to direct these resources, generate employment and employ more labor. It is in this act that high population can be used to stimulate productivity, increase income, and improve welfare.…

    The Philippines is the 12th most populated country in the world. In 1990 the Philippine population was more than 66 million, up from 48 million in 1980. This figure represents an annual growth rate of 2.5 percent, down from 2.6 percent in 1980 and from more than 3 percent in the 1960s.

    Rh Bill: Philippines

    • 614 Words
    • 3 Pages

    How do I imagine the Philippines years from now? As much as I’d want to see our nation progress and become globally competitive, I have to admit that this is one dream not likely to happen. With the Philippine’s rapidly growing population, the country will never be able to develop to its full potential if the citizens have no jobs, no homes and no food. So why is our country suffering? It is simply because Filipinos, especially in the slum areas, are uneducated and unacquainted with the methods of responsible parenthood and family planning, leading to the rapid increase in the Philippine’s population. A very popular topic in our country today that is usually debated about is the RH Bill or the Reproductive Health Bill. This said bill was supposedly passed to control the growing population of our country to lessen poverty. It aimed to legalize access to contraceptives and age-appropriate reproductive health and sex education, which are highly opposed by the Catholic Church. We all know that poverty is one of the biggest problems of the Philippines and the usual victims of this intensifying setback are those people who were not able to enjoy the benefits of education. Since they are not well informed, they are also ignorant of the consequences of their actions and so, I, personally, believe that it is time to make a change or else misery and woe will fill our land. Without the Reproductive Health Bill, I can imagine so much more distress among the Filipinos. For sure, the people in the slum areas will continue their old habits of having five, eight, eleven and even fourteen children. Most of them will not be able to provide for the daily needs of each one and hunger will definitely be another daily obstacle. Aside from food, there will be so many limitations when it comes to space and shelter. Everyone will compete for the best area to live in where there is enough clean water and of course security for the members of the family. Basic human needs will be the biggest…

    Our population has grown steadily from a few millions in 1900 to over 60 million as projected by the National Census and Statistics by 1989. But the production of our food supplies has not kept pace with the unabated increase of population. This imbalance has given birth to many intricate social problems the solution of which demand utmost resourcefulness in leadership and unflagging support in fellowship. The increase in population, unaccompanied by widespread enlightenment and a corresponding improvement in the economic position of the individual and the greater part of the society, generated pressures and created more problems never before encountered by our people. We now have a growing a middle class – one not quite sizeable but certainly growing in number, in quality and in influence. An increasing number of Filipino physicians, nurses, educators, technicians, researchers and government career men are now going abroad and receiving advanced training in foreign countries.…

    What is population explosion? It is a rapid increase in size of the population caused by such factors as a sudden decline in infant mortality or an increase in life expectancy. One factor to consider is the death rate and birth rate is not in balance. This means that rapidly growth increase was mainly caused by decreased death rate and an increase in birth rate. To the extent the number of birth rate exceeds the number of deaths. Population explosion is one of the serious problems in our times now. Over the past years, our population is dramatically increasing. Our numbers are expected to rise again in the next years. Here in the Philippines, our population today had estimated to reach 103,775,002 according to the CIA World Factbook. We landed on the number twelve spot on having the largest population in the world. This problem caused bad effects to the lives of many Filipinos, financial crisis, economy and environment that lead to severe poverty, malnutrition, unemployment, violence and crime, other large population related problems. Due to population explosion the Philippine economy is getting smaller and smaller and a hindrance to improve the way of living. How come there are countries with higher population than the Philippines have still high economic rate and rich in resources? Do the government been effective in controlling population growth?…
