Halloween...it's a pagan ritual or celebration that is strangely un-Filipino. Mora'g wa man tay halloween kaniadto until Hollywood propagated horror films.

Nothing bad or wrong with Halloween being different from our culture. Let's just respect it for what it is.

don't attack the group, go after the individuals.
here in the US, the catholic church does not collect fees for service kay naa man kwarta ang simbahan diri kay mas datu man ang faithfuls diri compared to 3rd world countries like philippines, mexico, brazil, colombia, puerto rico, cuba, etc.
if dili pa corrupt ang government in these countries, siguro mas arang2x pagka-butang ang mga citizens thereby mas daghan individuals maka donate ug funds sa simbahan and MAYBE di na kinahanglan mo collect ang simbahan ug fees for service.
moreover, naa man free service para sa mga poor. like mass baptism, weddings, confirmation and free burial services for the poor. diri sa states pobre man or datu, mass baptism kasagaran. ang pinoy ra man gyud gusto ug "sosyal" private nga mga service, nga pwede ra man unta dunganon tanan.
IMO, okay ra man mo charge fees for service. otherwise, unsaon pagka buhi sa simbahan?
unlike other christian denomination, the catholic church does not impose or even force their followers to do tithes. that's the reason why they ask fees for service which for me is just reasonable.
we should look at the situation objectively and dili nato tirahon ang religion.
AFAIK, there is also corruption in terms of money or s3x in other christian denomination. di na lang ko mo-mention coz it will be an unhealthy discussion.Last edited by LytSlpr; 11-02-2009 at 09:42 AM.
