List of Pro-RH Bill Candidates Released by Demo cratic Socialist Wo men of the Philippines

Salamat Br James sa information na ito. Kailangan nating malaman ang mga prinsipyo ng ating mga kandidato lalo na sa isyu ng Reproductive Health Bill. Maganda nga at nakapagbigay ng mga materyal si Br Carlos upang maunawaan natin ang mga nilalaman ng ginagawag batas na ito. 

Kung 'di nila maproprotektahan ang mga buhay sa sinapupunan ng mga ina, ang lugar na sana ay pinakaligtas para sa mga bata, ano pa kaya ang kanilang magiging pananaw sa ibang estado ng buhay ng tao? 

Ang pinaglalaban ng simbahan, ang paggalang ng buhay ng tao mula sa paglilihi ng ina, ay 'di limitado sa usapang pang-relihiyon http://bit.ly/cbWdD6. Ang pinaglalaban ng Iglesiya ay ang universal na katotohanan na dapat na kilalanin ng bawat tao na kayang maunawaan at marating kahit ng natural na kakayanan ng ating kaisipan. Kaya ang pagsabi na ang isyu na ito ay 'di maipipilit sa ibang taong may ibang pananalig ay pagpapakita lamang ay pagpapakita ng mahinang paggamit ng kaisipan at kawalang pagmamahal sa mga maliliit at walang kalaban-laban


-- my heart rejoices in the Lord!

· Recent pronouncements on RH are vague.
