Endless RH debate

READER'S VIEWS - Jean Michaut, Cebu City - The Philippine Star

Endlessly it is a back and forth bickering, arguing concerning the RH Bill without bringing any valid formula and solution to this very serious problem. 

What is the most surprising is the absence of valid discussions, dialogues and seminars covering all aspects of the sexuality which is basic in this case to fully understand the meaning and importance of RH Bill.

The Church criticizes the State and vice-versa, but who is coming with a complete study on the problem in question?  As far as the Church is concerned it is difficult to comprehend, understand the mutism about all documents officially published over the years by the Holy See.

Why keeping mute on all those valuables Encyclical and Pontifical Letters and Councils some dated back to 1880? Directly or indirectly related to the problem of RH Bill, there are about 16 documents published by the Vatican. Why not use them for a better understanding?

We want to review things to reach a transformation, but how can we get transformation without a formation which can be acquired only if education has been received.

We always come back to the undeniable trilogy which is “ EDUCATION-FORMATION—TRANSFORMATION”

EDUCATION is the key to change. FORMATION is the key to TRANSFORMATION. AWARENESS brings MOTIVATION; MOTIVATION leads to ACTION; ACTION needs to be accompanied by a committed LOVE and SPIRITUALITY.

Unless we stop moving in circle, bickering and arguing, we will be at the same point that we were when the RH Bill was put on the table and it will go on and on unless every one directly involved, i..e Church and State to educate Parents, Children and Youth in a properly and open manner.
