caught between Religion and World

Ive attended my usual sunday mass today. But before the mass ends, the priest opened a video regarding the catholics no to abortion advocacy campaign. Im also against to abortion. Remember that regardless of religion or sect you belong, we are taught that LIFE is a gift so let us all treasure it. But I think the church must deeply study the dimensions of this problem. They must have give concrete solution to the that said maor problem. Abortion is immoral. Killing a child inside mother’s womb is a big crime to the eyes of the world and to the eyes of God. But, does using condom and contraceptives a crime too ? I think not. Condom helps prevent other sexually transmitted diseases including AIDS-HIV. And it helps in over population problem in our country. The population of the Philippines is 99,900,177 as of July 2010 (http://www.mahalo.com/population-of-philippines) and it is still bloosoming. Guess what, the spaces isnt enough for those millions of tons of future kids that are going to be born soon. What are they going to eat in our bald forest and flooded rice mills ? What kind of quality education are they going to receive ? What kind of world would you wnat them to play ? With all honesty, im caught between my religion and my believe. I believe that the church have more than enough reasons, but I also do.




But as young citizen, all I have to do is to open my eyes to what I can see and didnt see. To have an ear to the noise and silence of the world’s prejudice, and to be vigilant. I cant weigh whats on my mind now. I cant.
