It was NEVER about the INC religion or its doctrine or the ordinary members, kong tutuusin ang dami-daming religions iba-ibang pananaw (RC, UCCP, sabadista, Phil Independent church, Mormon, Jehova, dating daan, protestant etc) but people had no complaint against these groups. If one of their members commits a crime, their church will not rally along Edsa and cry "separation of state & church".
These groups dont interfere with standard gov't activities such as crimminal investigation etc. Their church leaders wouldnt commit dirty tricks such as illegal detention, death threats, "tiwalag"- excommunication, character assasination or use of private army to hide the truth from coming out in the open.
My ate is in the INC, my respect for her does not wane. Same goes for people I know who is an INC member..
