		<description>Headline from Guardian Iloilo: Garin backs condom advocacy.
With due respect to Congressman Janet Garin, as a Medical Doctor like me, we are healers and teachers by profession. We heal the sick and also teach health guided by our moral and ethical values. And to deviate from our medical oath and push your political agenda for personal gain is wrong. By legislating use of condom to promote safe sex and let the government pay for it is just morally and ethically wrong. It’s like giving your kid money to buy booze and tell him it’s ok to drive; you’re promoting bad behaviour and advocating licence to kill. You’re not teaching your kid to be responsible person. By the same token, if your  approach to control the population growth is by giving free condom in the guise of safe sex, then you succeeded by killing them early from STDs. May be you’re right for wrong reason. You’re RH Bill is not all bad, but it needs reform to serve the interest interest of the Christian majority.
As far as I understand it, and since we are only talking about sex within the context of marriage where it is allowed, and STD disease is not an issue among faithful partners, it can only be used for medical purposes. It cannot be used to prevent conception unless the end result is a danger to the health of the female. Risking your own spouse health because of your own pleasure is plain and simple selfishness and stupidity.</description>

		<description>Here are some of the potential consequences of the passage into law of the Reproductive Health (RH) Bill (HB O5043) which have dawned upon me; to wit:

1.0	 BIG BUSINESS, BIGGER MONEY. If RH Bill passes into law, condom suppliers may earn from the Philippine government (which will be mandated to distribute free condoms to 4.9 million youth aged 15-27), PhP 2.548 billion every year. (Or 4.9 million youth times 1 sex act per week times 52 weeks per year times condom usage of 1 piece per sex act times supplier’s price of P10 per piece of condom.) The assumption of a youth engaging in sex at the average of once a week, I am afraid, is in order and conservative. It will be unthinkable for a young student to obey the reminder of his RH teacher or older relatives that abstinence is the most effective birth control method when that young student is aware, the government is duty-bound to provide him or her with free condom for his or her sexual cravings anytime, anywhere. Condom supply is therefore a big business if RH Bill passes into law. Nevertheless, what is bigger money is when government canvassers, signatories of purchase orders, receivers of condom deliveries, as well as check payment signatories and releasers may connive with condom suppliers to price the condom at P 100 per piece instead of P 10. The over price of P 90 per piece of condom will be distributed among the involved government officials. Therefore, due to the passage of the RH Bill, there is an opportunity for a PhP 25.48 billion condom scam to happen.

2.0	BOARS AND GILTS. These 4.9 million youth who are recipients of the government’s free supply of condoms may naturally crave for sex like animals (considering the additional enticement from the immodest mass media and the internet pornography). The young male may act like boar while the young female behaves like gilt that is in heat. This promiscuity or multiple sexual relationships, is probably just a take off point. The Law of Diminishing Extra Satisfaction (as adopted from the psychological and economic law of diminishing marginal utility) that governs pure human and animal endeavors including sexual relations will be fully operational. In other words, if sex will be a preoccupation of the Filipino youth, then the satisfaction that a young male derives having sex with female partner/s, will decrease or wane eventually. He then ventures to partner sexually with his fellow male/s to seek new level of satisfaction. He may push further by engaging in bisexual activities. But most likely he will end up as a pure homosexual. A young female may also follow the same path as she craves for sex and sexual satisfactions. She may graduate as a pure lesbian. But this scenario will not be glaring overnight. It will take a generation – ten years span. This may then translate to the need of a new advocacy – to support the passing into law of the bill on same-sex marriages and divorce in the country.

3.0	POPULATION REDUCTION. The ultimate aim of RH Bill, I understand, is achieving economic prosperity (particularly for the poor) however through population reduction approach. In case the RH Bill is passed, its success will be measured therefore by, among others, whether its respective population reduction target (PRT) is attained. And the critical factor in attaining PRT is the effective distribution and use of condom of the 4.9 million Filipino youth in particular. Effective means here, making a condom available for free, on demand of the youth, either male or female, anywhere, anytime. As mentioned above, this will cost the Philippine government, PhP 2.548 billion every year. If  the government will have limited or doesn’t have that amount of taxpayers’ money (for condom purchase and distribution) then the full attainment of the PRT will be jeopardized. Thus RH Law may prove to be ineffective to reduce population in the country. If this is the case, other population reduction measures or Bills will be therefore sought. So there will be a future need to support for the passage into law of Pro-abortion Bills as well as of Pro-euthanasia Bills.

So then, to all the RH Bill advocates, if your support for the passage into law of RH Bill (which may lead to additional opportunity for corruptions in the Philippine government, to transformation of the Filipino youth as homosexuals and lesbians, to eventual murder of unborn babies and to future mercy-killing of senior citizens, etc.) makes your Mama proud of you, then go full speed ahead of your RH Bill advocacy. Otherwise, please resign as a RH Bill supporter and lobby harder for our legislators to vote against RH Bill.</description>

		<description>if we just follow the natural procreation cycle, we wouldnt have to deal with this. the bad thing about this is that it somewhat promotes marriage outside sex, and that is a mortal sin. second, abortion is being allowed there. third, children will be taught &quot;sex education&quot;which was also introduced in the U.S., and now look at the children there with 9-year old pregnancies. that is the reason why people who support this bill are not anymore allowed to take the communion. if we overpopulate, God will take care of it by some natural way. anyway, if people only keep themselves busy, thay wouldnt have time for having too much children.</description>
