Walang sakay na taumbayan

Wala na talagang konsyensya!

Kung isisingit ko ang article ni MLQ na assasination with a smile….

matapos pakinabangan ang pinaka trapo na si JDV ito ay nabura na sa eksena at display na lang ngayon sa Kongreso
at unti unti nang pinapakuluan itong si JDV di nya ito mamalayan at matatakasan hanggang huli na ang lahat…

talagang wala ng pakialam kungh sinong masasagasaan at wala rin silang pakialam kung sinung itatapon nila na nakasakay na na pasahero ng tren!

Washington State (not Washington DC) has a lot of experience with initiatives. Here’s a link about Tim Eyman, an individual who got a reputation, both good and bad, in the initiatives game.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Eyman

If you are able to open the link and read the article, notice that in at least two cases, his initiatives won but were later declared unconstitutional by the Washington State Supreme Court for having more than one subject matter.

Of course, the initiative process in the Philippines is different. I just can’t help comparing because it is very obvious that the so-called “People’s Initiative” for cha-cha is very broad in its scope. It would never pass in Washington State on substance, but more so, because it would be shown for what it is–not a true people’s initiative but a government sponsored mutilation of the existing constitution. But then again, ibahin natin ang Pilipinas.

Re: “Kailangan raw tumabi ang mga politiko at kung hindi, masagasaan sila.”

Umaandar pa ba ang mga tren ng PNR?

E di bale nang masagasaan si Gloria politica. Ok lang iyon.

Tutal papalitan ng ng bago ang mga tren na iyan.

Iyan ang malaking tanong ngayon?? Sang-ayon ako kay luzviminda: Saan nga kinuha ng “Sigaw ng Bayan” ang kanilang pondo? Bakit nakakapagbigay sila ng bigas at pera? Excuse me po, pero pera yata ng bayan ang ginagamit nyo? Bibitayin kayo ng taongbayan sa inyong ginagawang pagwawaldas. Kung hindi iyan proyekto ng gobyerno (ni gloria) lalong malaking problema ang haharapin nila. Ang tingin ko kina gloria, jooe de v. fidel, mike D., bunyeta, ermita at gonzalez ay mga demonyo na. Wala na silang pakiramdam, wala ng kahihiyan, wala na rin takot sa Diyos. Lahat ng nasa isip nila ay pansarili lamang. Itong mga generals na naghuhuthot ke gloria ay makakapal na rin ang mukha. Iniisip ko lang, ano bang nararamdaman ng mga pamilya nila. Are they proud of their parents, their spouses? Kanino nila ipagmamalaki ang kanilang mga magulang? Wala namang Pilipino ang maniniwala sa kanila? lalo namang hindi nila pwedeng ipagmalaki sa mga foreign countries, so kanino? Ang pwede lang humanga kina gloria at lahat ng kanyang mga alipores ay si satanas na talaga namang nagsasaya ngayon!!! Nabili na ni satanas ang kanilang mga kaluluwa! paalala ko lang kina gloria, wala pong airconditioner sa dagat-dagatang apoy. kayanin nyo kaya ang init duon? Araw-gabi kayong nakababad sa apoy?? Isa pa hong paalala, donya sinungaling, mandaraya at magnanakaw, magdala po ikaw ng manzanas sa inyong pagpanaw, para magamit ng iyong esposo, ilagay mo sa bibig niya habang niluluto kayo ng apoy.!!!

Mahirap na sagupain ang tren na iyan. Bukod sa mga TRAPO na sakay, kasama rin diyan ang mga milyones na nawala mula sa CALAMITY FUND, DEPT. OF PUBLIC HIGHWAYS, FERTILIZER FUND, Marcos money from Swiss banks, atbp. Talagang tuso yang si Gloria. Huwag naman sanang mahulog sa bangin and tren. Kailangang harapin ni gloria ang kanyang pananagutan sa taong bayan.

Thank you for your note Jinx, however I’m not after the goings on before and after the mass. I was just taken aback by Ducky Paredes’ statement in his column proclaiming Gloria to be a devout catholic and her adherence to most of the ten commandments. Also, he seems to show displeasure with the presence of muslims and a protestant in a catholic mass. What’s wrong with that? Isn’t it admirable to see a multi-faith group honoring a new cardinal? Parang lumalabas tuloy na salvation is exclusive to a particular religion.

Batong……

Yeah you’re correct, that is why we have the inter-faith diologue already, what’s wrong, if there’s muslim, buddhist, protestants and other religious belief. The only funny thing is how can gloria be a devout catholic if she’s A LIAR, A CHEATER AND A THIEF???????????????? answer that ducky

jinx

Ang tren ni gloria na tumatakbong mabilis ay walang tamang direksyon. Malaon at madali ay magpapasuray-suray iyon, babangga at lahat ng sakay ng tren ay mababagok ang ulo, dudugo hanggang sa panawan sila ng buhay. Bakit kasi kailangan nilang magmadali, wala naman humahabol? O sila ang may hinahabol? Pero ano kaya iyon? Bakit kaya si gloria ay praning na praning na?? Iyang P I na ginagawa nina gloria ay illegal, hindi sigaw ng bayan, kundi singaw ng baho ng malacanang. Itong si Abalos, noong kaingayan ng hello garci tapes hindi man lang gumawa ng action para maconfirm kung talagang ang mga pirma sa ERs noong 2004 election ay genuine. Pero ngayon kandarapa siya sa pag-confirm (Kuno) ng pirma . Paalala lang po, uulitin ko : ang mga miyembro ng Iglesia ni Cristo ay hindi pinayagang pumirma duon, kaya dapat walang mahalong names ng INC sa mga pirmadong documents. Paging Ka Erdie, paki-check lang po at baka nagagamit na ang iyong relihiyon ng isang magnanakaw, mandaraya at sinungaling na babae.

KAYA NAMAN HINDI NAKIPAGHOLDINGHANDS SI GLORIA…
Kasi mataimtim itong nananalangin sa kanyang mga KASALANAN…

Actually after reading Ducky’s column, I wrote to him and pointed what I consider an error albeit a minor one:

Here’s what Ducky wrote back today: De : “Horacio Paredes”

Good pont. FVR is definitely not an Anglican; not even a Methodist.

Ang People’s Initiative ni Glorya (PIG) ay ginawa lamang para ma-iba ang isyu. Para may ibang mapag-diskitahan ang mga kalaban ni Glorya. Inililigaw lang nila ang mga tao sa totoong isyu.
Mrs. Arroyo, wala ng naniniwala sa inyo, bumaba na kayo kagaya ni Thaksin ng Thailand. Alam ng tao na lahat na batas na ginagawa niyo ay puro peke dahil peke kayong Presidente. Huwag kayong mag-alala may papalit sa inyo, hindi para sa inyo ang Pilipinas. Lumayas na kayo!!!!!!
Cong. Escudero bakit mo pinagre-resign ang mga taga COMELEC? Dapat ang magre-resign ay yong mga OPISYALES NA NAGPAMODMOD NG PERA SA MGA YAN PARA LANG SILA MANALO. ALAM NG TAONGBAYAN NA HINDI LANG NAMAN SI GLORYA PATI MGA TAGA OPOSISYON. Nagpapamodmod kasi alam nila mas malaki ang balik di ba??? Huwag na kayong magku-kunwarian pa lahat kayo pare-pareho. Puro Milyonaryo/Bilyonaryo naman kayo, ang pagsi-silbi ba talaga sa taongbayan ang hangarin niyo o IBA???? Nagtatanong lang po ako…..KAKAINIS NA KASI!!!!!

Malawakang protesta, boycott at civil disobedience ay walang pansin kay Gloria Macapal. Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra decided to step down for the sake of country’s unity. May delicadeza itong bilyonaryong PM Thaksin. Si kapit-tuko Gloria ay walang konsyensiya-delicadeza.

Ms Anna d brux, I believe Ducky got lost in the meaning of the word catholic. You see in the Philippines the word catholic refers only to the Roman Catholic church while in the Creed of the Apostles that came out of the Edict of Milan, the word catholic means universal. Universal as in “universal body of believers” to which Protestants profess to belong.

But during the Protestant Reformation that swept through Europe and led by Martin Luther, they were considered DESTABILIZERS and were burned at the stakes because they were criticizing the doctrines and dared to make a stand in direct contrast to that of the Roman Catholic Church.

FVR is a protestant and he is one of those GMA considers as destabilizers of her government. It should be an honor for him that Gloria did not hold his hands during the mass, however underserved the honor was. But right now he is CLUELESS.

I am a protestant and we recite the Apostles’ Creed that says in part: “ I believe in the holy catholic church…..” in our regular worship services. This means that we belong to the universal body of Christ. WE belong to the Original Apostolic Church but not to the Roman Catholic Churh.

However, Ducky is right in one thing, FVR had it coming when he attended that mass where he does not belong. But you see, FVR has long been disowned, without his knowledge, by a lot of Protestants and Born Again Christians.

pag si Gloria naging Santa, talagang iba na ang mundong gagalawan. sa birthday niya ngayon DAW, ang only wish ko is for her to have longer life, para naman pag tanggal na siya sa pwesto di medyo matagal din siyang mag suffer. di gaya ng nangyari kay milosevic….

Pano makokonsiyensya ang pandak sa Malakanyang sampu ng kaniyang mga alagad ng impiyerno? Kita nyo naman, namamanas ang mukha at balot na balot ang pangit niyang mukha ng makeup. Only in the Philippines na bistado na, kapit tuko pa rin. Gloria Arrovo, I know you want to prove to the country that you are a strong person being a female leader. Pero wala sa lugar. Hindi tapang ng loob ang pinapakita mo kundi TAPANG NG SIKMURA. Nakakasuka ka na.

Decoding secret world of Opus Dei
Friday, 16 September 2005

 
 
The successful novel The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown has raised public interest in the controversial Catholic lay group Opus Dei, depicting it as a sect focused on wealth and power.
 
As part of the BBC’s Who Runs Your World? series, the BBC’s Max Seitz travelled to Spain – the country where Opus Dei was founded and seems to be most influential.
 
Opus Dei – which in Latin means “Work of God” – has been accused of manipulating its followers, but denies all such claims.
 
People on the streets of the Spanish capital, Madrid, told me that they believe Opus Dei is a secret society which has infiltrated politics and businesses.
 
“Opus Dei has a lot of power in Spain, and it’s also influential in other countries,” one person told me.
 
“There are lots of things we still don’t know about them – they just let us know what they want,” said another.
 
Opus Dei is a powerful organisation which uses its schools and universities to grow more influential.”
 
 
Opus Dei saint
 
But what’s the truth behind this perception? Is Opus Dei as powerful as people think?
 
This Catholic group claims around 85,000 members around the world, one third of them in Spain. Members are encouraged to promote the evangelising mission through their professional work.
 
In other words, they aim to be very successful in their jobs while at the same time being charitable to other people and trying to attract more followers.
 
In 2002, thousands of pilgrims from around the world travelled to the Vatican when Pope John Paul II canonised the founder of Opus Dei, Josemaria Escriva de Balaguer, in a “fast track” process only 27 years after his death.
 
He also granted Opus Dei the status of “personal prelature” – which has given the group some independence within the Catholic Church. That is why some say that Opus Dei grew more influential in the Vatican during the papacy of John Paul II.
 
But Opus Dei’s spokesman Jack Valero denies it: “The number of people from Opus Dei working in the Vatican is very reduced: five or maybe six people, including the spokesman Joaquin Navarro-Valls. The influence of Opus Dei in the Holy See has been exaggerated.”
 
But critics say there are more clergymen with links to Opus Dei, and that they have created a “Church within the Church”, something that the Catholic group denies.
 
Opus Dei has also had prominent representatives among governments and companies, although they usually do not publicly recognise their membership.
 
The Spanish sociologist Alberto Moncada – himself a former Opus Dei member – explains that the link between Opus Dei and power could be traced back to the 50’s, when two representatives of the group were appointed ministers during General Franco’s regime.
 
“Franco’s regime was a period of political and economic success for Opus Dei, but at the same time has given the group a bad name,” he said.
 
“People still remember this old time. However, things have changed. Although some members of Opus Dei are active in politics and businesses nowadays, they don’t act together like a mafia. That’s not true.”
 
The UK education secretary, Ruth Kelly, has recently confirmed reports that she is a member of Opus Dei.
 
 

Control
 
In Latin America, Colombian President Alvaro Uribe is also said to be a member – something he has not confirmed.
 
Opus Dei’s spokesman Jack Valero says religion is something that should be kept private.
 
Opus Dei membership is a private matter,” he said. “We don’t publicise our members list. Some high-profile politicians say publicly that they belong to Opus Dei, yes, but that’s not relevant to their job as government officials or congressmen. What’s really important is how they do their job.”
 
It is difficult to pin down just how much money Opus Dei has. The group is decentralised into scores of foundations around the world, and it does not publicise its general accounts. Members have to donate a significant part of their income.
 
But maybe the most overlooked aspect of Opus Dei’s power is that it is said to wield over its followers. Accusations have been made of brainwashing and manipulation in centres where celibate members live, the so-called “numeraries”.
 
“Life is schizophrenic in Opus Dei centres,” says former numerary Carmen Charo.
 
“Each member has lots of spiritual tasks to fulfil, like praying, going to mass every day, training other followers, and his or her development as a free person isn’t really considered – one is always under the orders of the spiritual leaders, and also under their strict control. The same happens with your money.”
 
Members of Opus Dei respond to these criticisms by saying that they are normal people working in the midst of the world just like anyone else, and that they are free and can leave whenever they want.
 
“It’s a vocation,” says Jose Maria Villalon. “You can freely choose your way of life and I have chosen to find God in my work as a member of Opus Dei.
 
“Someone within the group could have made some mistake, even myself. That’s normal in any organisation run by human beings. However I completely deny that people are manipulated or brainwashed.”
 
So are Opus Dei members saints or sinners? Many in Spain say the answer lies somewhere in between.
