More Church Arguments to Comment on…
1. How can population development be achieved if the RH bill is passed.
a. According to the church if the Reproductive health bill is passed, the number of Filipinos being born will drastically reduce the population.
i. My understanding would be, yes there will be a change in the number of Filipinos being born but the number wouldn’t affect that much because the Reproductive health Bill will not stop people from producing children but it will only lessen the amount of children being born because of family planning which the couple will be able to choose if they would want to do so or not. So, it’s a matter of choice if the couple wants to have kids or not. It’s not the bill saying to couples to stop making babies because the population in the Philippines is too much. What the bill is saying that the people need to be educated about their health. It’s not that couples should stop making children it’s always a choice if they would be able to bring up their children. Health, Education and Other factors will be taught to the couple. Should they bring up or not, because having children is not as easy as taking care of animals. It should be planned and the couples must be so prepared for it. Having a child is not as enjoying as making the child.
b. The population will be composed of sick people
i. Like my last blog post, the reproductive health bill will not harm people because there have been studies on the family planning process that people will receive if they choose to educate themselves. It has been proven that there are more people who are dying because of other instances compared to using these prescribed contraceptives. The ratio given by the UN is 1 out of 1000 and I guess it wouldn’t be as harmful as what the church is saying. If there are medical proofs then I believe that the use of contraception is safe and that the rh bill has no plans of harming the people in the country.
c. The future generation or the pag-asa ng bayan will be killed.
i. Again, by allowing Rh bill to happen, when couples are educated, the number of children being brought in the Philippines does not stop. It lessens. We cannot assume that the next Einstein would be brought up in the Philippines but since his father used a condom, he wasn’t able to bring him up anymore. WE CAN’T SAY THAT. What the church is doing is that they always assume things. The RH Bill will not kill people. The Contraceptives are not Genocides. Being educated is a choice by the couple and the use of contraception is also a choice. The couple has a choice on whether he wants to have 8 kids, 20 kids, or what number he might think of, the RH bill is just to educate the couple and provide options to make the child’s life a safer one, if they choose to have one.
