Insight

This article has been provided and composed as a reflection of a lost government and discussion relatives to the lessons provided as your worldview, ideology, and religion that challenges the environmental problems in the competitive landscape.

An Argument

The author would say that “Religion” is one of the worst institutions ever have had in this world against biblical teaching. In the case of the “Roman Catholic” with Jesus Christ, the religion which had been created and established a long time ago, it is indeed, because of business and conquering the world according to their principles and greediness.

When Spain came and colonized the Philippines, they used “Religion” to sabotage, wash-out and to enslave the Filipino people for centuries of their ideology in the country. However, with their colonization in the entire islands, the infrastructure, and the building-built environment had been progressed into a European environment, which the author may say, the environmental ecosystem which had been established before can be seen today and still noticeably throughout the Philippines and patronized by the Filipino considering one of the heritages in the country.

On the other hand, they used religion in politics governing the people for their self-interest, which until now is happening in the country, Philippines. It is sad to say that whenever the belief comes into politics, the infrastructure keeps changing because of their ideology, which obviously against the teaching of the ‘Bible”. The concrete example is the “EDSA Revolution,” which lead the sabotage to corruption. The author was in the Catholic School at that time, however, because we are the student, the Priests, and Nuns encouraged us to attend for the rally to discharge the Marcos administration, which they are sayings that they are corrupt and imperialist.

With the intervention of religion and their influences in the politics in the Philippines, so many questions have been raised from Aquino to Aquino administration, they are always saying about democracy but in contrast, resulting to graft and corruptions for 30-years which suffered the whole country and affecting the environmental ecosystem into chaos.

Religion creates more pretentions and shelters of the graft and corrupt politicians where the Priests and Nuns are covering them with their sins they did as a “Holy.”

Going back to Cory Aquino to Noynoy Aquino administrations, what happened to the forest environmental ecosystem? What happened to the Philippine Economy? What happened to the Philippine infrastructure? What happened to the Filipino people? And why we are here in Qatar? Did they give the people needs? And it is a big “NO,” right? And until now because of the Priests and Nuns in the Philippines keep covering the graft & corrupt politicians for their self-interest as the profiled hypocrites, which can be seen and observed too from the biased media, injustice and unfairness.

As far as the environmental aspects are concerned, religion is the root cause of all pretention that have been idolized by humanity, whereas, for them, they are holy and perfect. Unfortunately, they are creating fake news and unholy in reality. But it is a matter of convincing other peoples for their beliefs and ways of thinking for self-interest. And thus, religion speaks only for their good and not knowing what is happening in the environment on the ground within the competitive landscape.

The author quoted that, “Religion is among the dominant forces in society that sustain the status quo. It does this through the transmission of values to the next generation, maintenance of ideologies, preservation of traditions, and protection of the prevailing social order.”…but be fair because in the real scenario are getting worse as self-explanatory where the truth had been set aside as Rizal did for the country.

Look what happens to the New People’s Army (NPA) and other rebel’s ideologies are it helping us and are we getting benefits from them, the author may say, a big “NO” again, conversely, they are terrorists who destroyed the Forest Ecosystem and the environmental aspect in the upland resources. These are all in question that nobody can answer because of their self-interest, graft and corruption practices that are truly affecting the government economy and these our environment nowadays, which is, AMAZING!

Conclusion

The religion itself had made its policy for their vision, self-interest and not for the common good that contributes miserable life to those who believe in return, without knowing the needs of individuals and sovereignty as a whole.

Delivering homily is a passionate one that always criticizing the government, pretending they are holy without even any initiatives from the priests/bishops/clergy in helping the people living in the squatter’s areas, the isolated peoples and the protection of the people who are making bad habits for them to become a drug addict and thus, problem in the society.

The question is, where are those religions that supposed to be helping them to become holy in guiding them a better crowd when the people are becoming poorer and devastating the environment into cruelty. They are all lies but to fatten their pockets from people’s money.

If they have wisdom, go out and help the community. Homily doesn’t work the environment at all but hates. The author may say, just do good, and this kind of attitude will reflect for a result, a better environment!
