[Title] => Church: Pope’s absence slashes turnout for meet
[Summary] => Terrorists did not keep them away, the Pope’s non-appearance did.
The drop in the number of delegates to the coming fourth World Meeting of Families was caused by the fact that Pope John Paul II will not be at the international gathering in Manila, Manila Auxiliary Bishop Socrates Villegas said yesterday.
In an interview at Villa San Miguel during the EDSA II anniversary, Villegas said the information cited in letters received by the Archdiocese of Manila was that the Pope was not coming to Manila for the international meeting of families.

[Summary] => Acknowledging the civil society as the "cornerstone of a strong Republic," President Arroyo specifically appealed yesterday to her EDSA II allies to forgive and forget for the sake of unifying the country.

[Title] => ‘Cults a challenge to Catholic Church’
[Summary] => The more cults there are in the country, the more challenges there are for the Catholic Church.
This was the statement made by a bishop of the Archdiocese of Manila during the weekend when asked about the problems brought about by the spread of cultist organizations in the country.
"I always look at problems as opportunities. So I would look at the data as a challenge even more for the Catholic Church, to go on more aggressively in evangelization," said Manila Auxiliary Bishop Socrates Villegas in an interview at the Arzobispado de Manila in Intramuros.
