Crisis of truth

Moro-Moro at Cenakulo
The bishops have spoken.The palace have been quick to exploit it - not unexpectedly.A strong backing delivered on a silver platter.And the vicious cycle of corruption whirled its happy whirl again.Dear bishops, what would you do if the President doesn't follow your "urgings"? Or simply go through the motions of fighting corruption for the next two years but doesn't really mean it?How could you

Communal Action according to GMA's spin doctors and the bishops who love her
Here is a 1-page ad which appeared today on the Phil Star. It's a selection of quotable quotes from Catholic Church officials, many of them bishops, collated to create the impression of a consensus favoring a rather narrow interpretation of what "communal action" means, i.e., pray, organize, cry yourself hoarse, do anything so long as it won't lead to the President stepping down from office."We

We had a meeting of the Board of Consultors. The Redemptorist priests in the pictures are Fr. Brian Espejo, CSsR and Fr. Oliver Castor, CSsR, respectively.

Battle of the Pictures
How Malacañang operators attempted a show of strength and support for GMA.Strange how a picture, supposedly worth a thousand words, can only manage to say one thing: PANIC!How the University of Santo Tomas decided to speak up concerning NBN-ZTE.Strange how a hitherto insignificant yearbook photo, blurred by age and outdated technology, can speak so eloquently about school pride and redemption.In
DLSU, PREX & ZTE-NBN: The Church's involvement thickens
Nuns serving as bodyguards. Two rival Catholic universities joining forces to act as champions of truth and accountability. Bishops issuing pastoral letters. Civil society groups trying to wring to the last revolutionist drop of meaning the bishops' ambivalent message of "communal action". Lay Catholic groups organizing mass actions. And now, Parish Renewal Experience (PREX) national head couple

Dragging the Church into the NBN-ZTE Scandal
A side event to the NBN-ZTE investigations, the latest scandal to hit the present administration (what does the opposition call it now, the "great-grandmother of all scams"?) was a not-often seen (or heard) public tussle between two Catholic Church leaders over the media. The repartee between "Running Priest" Father Robert Reyes and Bayombong Bishop Ramon Villena was aired last 15 February over
Candle-lighting and Rally for Truth and Accountability in Legazpi City
While thousands gathered in Makati last Friday, 15 February, to stand up for the truth and call to accountability the present administration, a smaller crowd gathered at Peñaranda Park in Legazpi City for the same causes and to express local support to a fellow Albayano, whistleblower Jun Lozada himself, who hails from Ligao City. His brother, Samson Lozada, joined the event. Before the afternoon

What is Neri afraid to say and Why?
Speaking hypothetically...Here's another widely-circulated e-mail, this time from man of the hour Jun Lozada himself, who incidentally calls himself a "probinsyanong intsik" from Ligao, Albay.If this were really written by Jun Lozano and ssuming this were true, then CHED Chair Neri is faced, not only with a political but even more so, with an existential predicament - in so many levels.Of special

Communal Action
Here's a recent widely circulated email. "Communal action", great expectations pin on two words. Is it just me? Why do these two words evoke an image of a C-section being performed on a pot-bellied guy in the vain hope that a newborn might come of it?Communal Action Doy Cinco / IPDhttp://doycinco.blogspot.com/2008/02/communal-action.htmlMonday, February 11, 2008 Walang dudang muli na namang
SOS: Calling Cardinal Sin
Bishop Claver, S.J., wants us to focus our attention to what he considers the main thesis of the latest CBCP Pastoral Statement: most, if not all, of our country's social problems today have one common cause, i.e., "the subordination of the good of the many to that of the few. Which subordination, the bishops said, is our besetting sin as a people."The good bishop also dispenses one good dose of

Corruption and Communion
Fr. Albert Alejo, S.J., EHEM Anti-Corruption Movement initiator and moving spirit, came up with a Lenten reflection that aims at fighting corruption within the Church. His advocacy is anything but unimportant, for we who read the Word of God must "believe what we read; preach what we believe, and practice what we preach." Though done independently and planned well ahead, the timing of its

Live from the Bastusang Pambansa
The tragi-comedy that happened at the House of Representatives several evenings ago have been described in a variety of ways. Administration congressmen, led by the 2 sons of the President ganged up on de Venecia faster than he could say: "Back off!" However, much as Malacañang wanted a "quieter" transition, de Venecia also made sure he delivered a stinging farewell speech against the President,
Why condom ads should be regulated
Finally, a saner, more rational way to explain why condom ads should be regulated.The discussion on condoms and AIDS prevention is unfortunately being dominated by forces at the extreme ends of the liberal-conservative divide. There is a burgeoning population problem in our country, and there is no sense in denying it or saying that we are better off than most 1st world countries who now face the
The bishops, between center and periphery
yet another comment on the latest CBCP statement "Reform your lives..." this time, John Nery takes issue with the bishops' convenient manila-provinces dichotomy. while it is good policy for the Church not to easily intervene in politics, esp in light (or should we say darkness?) of recent events, still it is also bad policy to stay at the sidelines while the rest of the country suffers from the
