Tikboy has an intelligent, studious and diligent friend. Matapos ang law school, ang kaibigan ni Tikboy ay nagrosaryo, nanalangin, nagpenitensiya at nag-fasting para lang makapasa sa bar. Matapos ang exam, bagsak ang kaibigan ni Tikboy. Di kasi ito nag-review.
While we agree at the calls for prayers, masses and vigils, we also agree that these, alone, cannot solve the country's ills. Even Gloria Arroyo and her cohorts pray, sponsor masses and even do vigils. If both parties do the same, sino na ngayon ang paniniwalaan ng Diyos, if ever there, indeed, is a God? Ang mapera ba? Ang malakas manalangin? Which brings us to the point na ang nakikinabang lang sa lahat ng ito ay ang Simbahan. Imagine holding masses for both parties -- the pro-Arroyos and the antis. Di ba doble-dobleng koleksiyon yun?
While we agree with the statement of Archbishop Angel Lagdameo that Arroyo is worse than a frying pan, allowing her to stay in power if the accusations being thrown at her is true, is accepting plain in simple that worse frying pan. O mas malala pa nga because in a way, the inaction to correct the mistakes is practically condoning the same. If the Church accepts what is wrong and tries to live with it, asan na ngayon ang moral authority nila over their flock?
Sa ngayon, nag-aantay pa rin ang mga tao sa senyas ng simbahan. Kung kelan yun darating, manalangin muna tayo. Malay natin, meron ngang milagro.
Pero di ba may kasabihan na "Nasa Diyos ang awa, nasa tao ang gawa?"
