Last friday's
rally of protesting was very compelling but irritating to many
commuters. It shows how this unruly people are being used by their
masters. I was lucky enough not to pass that area along EDSA Shrine. It was a lucky choice not go through hell around Ortigas
area where I would be stopped by horrendous traffic of vehicles and sea
of people. The said incident have irked a lot of commuters and even car
owners stucked that day. It will definitely bleed your gas money.
Yesterday,
during our morning round discussion over breakfast. I was able to ask
one of my friends who is an INC member. He mentioned to me that "Yes,
there should be a separation of state and there should be religious
freedom but in his opinion he mentioned that the dismissed ministers
were not detained in their complex but were given a fair trial before
removing them from their rosters of ministers after finding some
irregularities with them. The said ministers complained to the
Department of Justice about the ordeal they faced in the INC Complex in
Quezon City and have filed complaints of illegal detention and grave
threats including taunts from judges who are followers of this religious
sect. He also mentioned that why did they didn't file their cases in
the lower courts or even in the regional trial courts when they just
directed it to Department of Justice Secretary Leila de Lima herself. In
my opinion, they were very afraid of the flak they will from judges who
are INC members and were threaten with such action fearing for their
lives.
Another angle speculated by my INC member / friend that this was politically motivated by the government to stop them from voting by block voting system. Who gives a damn of block voting anyway. I'd rather not vote for this really traditional politician type of a man who really doesn't show love for this country but for his own personal agenda and his deep pockets.
I am not amused on what is happening with this religious sect. You are Filipinos and you are bound by the Philippine laws and constitution. What is important here is that the claims of the dismissed ministers should be examined and investigated rather than hitting the government or other innocent bystander with very ridiculous conclusions.
