Bible preacher Eli Soriano in a broadcast today in his bible exposition decried the effort of various religious groups to mislead the people, get money from them.   His group he says, only aims to research about the true teaching from the Bible. Because of the growth in the number of atheists now, mostly in developed countries.  There are about a billion now.   (From Daily Mail - non religious affiliation is the 3rd biggest religion with majority coming form China)  or about 16.4% of the total world's population



  • Christianity is the largest faith with 2.2 billion adherents or 31.5 per cent of the world's population
  • There are about 1.6 billion Muslims around the world - or 23 per cent of the global population

     Size and Projected Growth of Major Religious Groups

      As a true evangelist, the church of God reaches listeners and believers world wide in 6 continents through satellites for which their group spends millions of dollars.  This is something admirable for a Filipino evangelist  More countries reached by Old Path (Dating Daan)



    Some half truths lies spread by other religion

    1.  By Seventh Day Adventists and Jehova;s witness -  that Jesus Christ is St. Miguel the Archangel

    2.  By Jehovas witness -  that the name of the Lord is Jehovah.  How can that be?  There is no J in Hebrew.  Jehovah is a 14th century invention.  (by a breakaway group from the SDA)

    3.  The Holy Trinity and Purgatory concepts not found in the Bible

    from Google:

    The truth is that the Trinity isn't even mentioned in God's word, the Holy Bible. A check of any concordance will prove this fact. Not only is it not mentioned, but the doctrine is neither found in the New Testament,(6) nor the Old Testament.

    On the other hand there are numerous verses that mention about God the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit

    From Matthew 28:19

    Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

    I have often heard from my wife and children that DU30 and cohorts ay naisahan tayo, promising a better Philippines but it is turning it is not.  One of his promises is that there will be no corruption. But what do we see in the policemen whom he is siding now?  Corruption.

    What do we see sa BI na kabrod sa na lawyers sa frat?   Di daw corrupt.  My plot daw to catch the bribers? Bakit di alam ng superiors at bakit nablackmail ng militar?

    I hope we can still give the Pres the support he needs.  But the system we have the admin code, etc, the CSC code supports tenure and protection and the due process coddles corrupt people.  Dapat parang sa droga din yan.  Tokhang. Double barrel din.

    I am one of those who rabidly campaigned for Digong during the elections at my own expense and time, long before there were balimbings who joined the fray.  I have a friend educator, and we had deals together and he is now an Asec, being from CDO.

    I continued to support the Pres.  and side with him in this blog, as D5 attacked him and many others including the FM burial at LNMB.   However his statement that he sides with the police who killed Espinosa at Baybay Leyte jail, totally alienated him as a good President.  He can no longer present himself as anti corruption, as he harbors policemen who are alleged to be corrupt.  Even Gen Bato cried for discovering rogue cops around him. And now he is defending them for the kill.

    Now we are dealing with a despot who has the last word, and yesterday, he said to the effect that his power as Pres as Chief of the Country may be absolute.   A monarch and even worse than FM.  He can over rule a PNP chief (and yet we threw stones at PNoy as he and Purisima by passed the existing PNP hierarchy.

    We can only wish that God guides the President as he pursue his mandate for next 5 years.  As I see it now there are cracks, and things are going awry.  It is not about haranguing US and EU... many more are turning out to be wrong.

    12 of his supporters and relatives are in cabinet positions.  How can you end corruption.  Tayo tayo kami kami, to the victor belong the spoils.  I thought he disliked campaign donors and what do  you have Aimee Marcos who gave large amount for his candidacy.  He said he is not beholden to anybody.  Is he not beholden to the Marcos family.    Marami nang consistency, and not keeping his word weakening integrity of a true and mighty leader that he promised to us that he would be

    Image result for Digong ordered the Mayor Espinosa hit?

    After news came out Dec 2, 2016 that DU30 ordered the reinstatement of CIDG head Mervin Marcos, alleged leader of the CIDG group that did Mayor Espinosa in, Sen de Lima alleges that it is possible that the President is a drug protector?  What?  Something is moronic if not quixotic going on (the lady must have gone crazy for making that conclusion) After being accused of abetting the drug trade under watch and being alleged as using drug money for her election, she has the guts and nerve (under sane conditions) to accuse the top drug nemesis this accusation;  and after basing her premise on the allegations of the son Kerwin (whom she says she is a liar for alleging that she received millions from the former)

    DU30 could be right that the lady has gone crazy out of desperation for being hemmed in a corner.  But as she said, she is not giving up.

    On the other hand the Pres is wrong for bypassing Bato and ordering the hit.   (Baka ibunyag siya ni Marcos)  Ang gulo

    Tomorrow we commemorate the birth date of the great Plebian, perhaps the real Philippine National Hero who fought for our country using his own name, and not because the friars took away their land.

    But that reminds of the stark reality that there are constant reminders of suspension of writ of habeas corpus (after the declaration of state of lawlessness)  Martial Bonifacio (the name used in passport of Ninoy) may just be around the corner.  Digong has heads and hands full with the following:

    1.  Uncontrolled kidnapping by ASG in Mindanao despite 10,000 strong military ops;

    2.  Maute rebellion in Mindanao, even ambush of his advanced convoy;

    3.  Traffic problem (he still does not have emergency powers;   Political foes are giving him a hard time

    5.  Graft and corruption

          CSC laws, due process, Constitutional rights protecting corrupt officials.  The slow wheels of justice and govt grinds very slowly to defy efforts to clean the govt of corruption.  No the ERC officials will not resign because they have a tenure to be observed just like judges.

        Corrupt govt officials entrenched in the legislative and judicial branches.    And they have lawyers and laws behind them.

        Corrupt barangay officials and LGU officials -  their kotong ways have not abated.

        Campaign vs corruption in various depts are met with strong resistance as in DOJ, and even assassination as in Bureau of Customs

    As fmr Senator and fmr expert on martial law, Pres Duterte needs the declaration of martial law to combat crimes and solve all other challenges of the country.  I will do the same if I were the President.  An achiever can do no less.  A man of honor and respect for his word will demand nothing less to achieve his goals

    Even as the hearing is being held the defense lawyers are sifting probably through the video to find weaknesses in the affidavit and now strategizing how their clients can be defended.  The denial perhaps is a way of throwing off balance the prosecution and the heighten mass media appeal.

    As the SOJ even acknowledges, putting the accused behind bars would be a daunting and difficult task because she has the money and resources to fight the prosecution in courts, and even an expert in law herself

    From Rappler - I gave P8 million to de LIma through Dayan


    The Senate hearing on the testimony of Kevin Espinosa an alleged drug lord in Eastern Visayas just went into recess a few minutes ago, after a long arduous recitation of his affidavit and inquiry into processes of various police units like the IAS (which looked very slow and can not prosecute its own kind)

    One gets a glimpse of filial devotion, the greed and inhumanity of police officers down from PO up to Generals and double cross, and the defects in police work, and why the drug ring is spreading.

    Some important details:

    1.  The POs get P5t a week, captains up to P15 a week, Generals about P100t a month coupled with advances;  a Colonel got P3 million for the campaign of his wife, whose only duty was an augment force of 100 and whose important task is to set up check points.

    2.  The good senator who is a denial queen got some P8 million from him in various places in Manila (MoA) and in Baguio through his driver love who was also captured.  They even had photo ops in Baguio (a damning proof)  She vehemently denies this (of course her lover got it and did not remit this to her the usual defense)

    3.  Despite all these his father got killed inside a jail on the strength of a search warrant issued by the same judge and which happened in the same jail. at Baybay Leyte.

    Before he had strong admiration for some of the policeman but one can puke at the rabidity and greed of police officers and some of them were even in the hearing.

    The alleged affidavit of late Mayor Espinosa appeared to have been signed under duress because he was not given access to legal counsel.  For Albuera Chief Jovy Avenido, the prosecutor presence was enough counsel and kept insisting on this to the end much to t he chagrin of committee chair Gordon. For a police officer who is supposed to serve and protect the rights of civilians, not to understand the rights of the accused makes many cases fall apart or be lost in courts.

    The said Avenido turned out to be have shot and killed a gasoline boy in mistaken identity.  He was able to get a compromise but Gordon stated that one can not compromise the criminal portion of the offense.

    IAS seem not understand the meaning of summary hearing (an abbreviated hearing based on affidavit which is settled in 5 days or less for administrative purposes only) and could not give deadlines.

    Even as we conduct the drug war, things will get worse despite the leadership of Gen Bato, who seemed to be flabergasted with the lapses in procedure and even the integrity of men under him.  He calls Albuera Chief Avenido a disappointment. (He even brokered the meeting between Dayan and Kerwin.) He was disappointed and became emotional as to who can be trusted or not

    Of all the hearings this is the clearest, very focused and arrived at something concrete and positive.

    The long arm of the law finally caught up with fugitive Ronnie Dayan.  He was finally "captured" in San Juan La Union.   He was according to conflicting reports, (as claimed in Camp Crame) subject of a long search and evasion operation in the mountains of La Union.  However the video of ABS CBN showed otherwise that the relatives of Dayan were ahead of the police in getting to Dayan in a field in the said town.  (Was he captured/arrested or somebody - the relative of Dayan tipped off the press.  As we watch Espinosa, and the widespread involvement of policeman in drugs and inconsistency of police and police officers in their testimony and action, one casts doubt in the truth of some of police reports.   De Lima was right in her advocacy, except that now, she may have dirty hands)

    What is heartening is that an important witness in the NBP drug trade and the allegedly involvement of a top level official is finally found.   He may provide the link between the lady official and the said driver.   But at the end of the day, without the documentary evidence, it can not be established beyond the reasonable doubt that  the lady received the money from the lover. (although he admitted that they were on for 7 years.

    Will she be convicted on the basis of Dayans capture?  I doubt.  Naw

    From CNN PH - Ramos feels bad on Marcos LNMB burial
    This post was totally shocked and dumbfounded when fnr Pres Ramos denounced the Marcos family after alleged secret burial of fmr Pres Marcos at LNMB.  He lambasted them for the alleged stealthy burial and that fmr FL Imelda Marcos should apologize to the Filipino people

    Perhaps it is a way of atonement and distancing himself from the family for he is  a 2nd cousin of the President (I do not know how)  He was second in command of the chain of command of the military which implemented the orders of the late dictator. He and JEP

    On the same breadth as arguments vs Marcos burial, they too should be denied LNMB burial, even as they served at DND or the military as mandated by the Pantheon for Heroes law

    They are trying very hard to erase themselves from the atrocities of the dictatorship but they commanded the organization that  committed the PCO, the arrests, the detention, the interrogation and other alleged atrocities and human rights violation.  We can not change history, no matter how much they try to make pronouncements.

    Well, the Pres who very much politically adroit as all politicians should, believe that politics should be addition and as much as possible would like to bring all sectors of the govt, the left the right, the center to be together.  He sides with the police wooes them, he visits the military in their camps, breaks protocol and allows Misuari to speak at the Pres. podium.   He is practicing inclusiveness to the hilt.

    At the international scene:

    1.  He is trying defuse tension between China and PHL (he knows that in case of a shooting war, we cant defend ourselves let alone US defend us -  US is heavily indebted to China and very much dependent on China for its supplies

    2.  He tries to attend international conferences and try to get economic alliances to bring in more investments and export opportunities which were not available or visible  when we continued to be under the wings of US.  How much trade did we gain from China visit and conversation with Russian Pres. V Putin.

    3.  An RDO officer was gunned down, and he had with him P300,000 in cash (what a cash settlement for taxes in arrears?)

    All ready we have passed the 100 days and we do not see much change in terms of eradication of corruption.  The syndicates are still there, the old connection are still there, many govt offices are still ineffficient.   At the barangay level, high level corruption continues.  Elected and appointive govt officials lord it over and still continue their old corrupt ways.  Not much has improved in the fight vs corruption.

    As in the case, of  ERC when the Pres asked for resignation of the commissioners many did not comply and so the Pres. threatened to remove their budget.This stemmed from the suicide note of the chair of bids system Villa, who alleged in his suicide note that he was pressured to approve contracts without bidding?  Who has the greater will - the dewfenses of the corrupt ways and defenses or the fight for the right?

    In a short while, I may join the group of Bro. Ely Soriano.  He said that religious group must emphasize the salvation of its followers rather than tithing and charging fees for ceremonies.

    To be saved we should follow the commandments of God and Jesus Christ.  How would that happen in many religious groups where they do not prohibit body piercing tattoos, vices and other violation of the commandments.

    We should shun gambling, drinking of liquor cigarettes, sinful dressing entertainment.  We are known as Christina nation.  Why do religious leaders allow these to thrive?
