"philosophy" at work hehehe i may have poorly chosen the words but it shows in the way you structured your sentences. point is, you keep on downplaying it. but again as you point it out, it's MERELY and REMOTELY CIRCUMSTANTIAL AT BEST. your words.
Ok if you say so bro. Back to topic na lang.
anything that pertains to religion or any discussion about it is a polarazing exchage of opinions. but still here's my take on it. i just dont believe the idea that we talk about the church as something as economics. kung ang isang nagsusuri o pumupuna sa isang simbahan ay hindi nito kasapi o walang anumang relihiyon, maaring ito ay may basehan pero hindi nagangahulugan na siya ay tama. at kung ikaw naman ay kasapi, mababaw ang iyong paniniwala sa dyos. alam natin na ang pangunahing serbisyo ng simbahan ay pagtulong sa mga kasapi nito sa pinansyal at spiritwal na pamamaraan. but the church are governed by people who are exposed to worldy sins too and they are just human to succumb to pressures in life. our faith are not based on the people the governed our church because if it is, ang tingin mo dito ay parang isang organisasyon lamang na ang iyong pagsangayon o pagsapi ay dineditermina ng mga namumuno dito. faith should transend the institution per se. the divinity of the lord that we believe in is beyond question, we may be indifferent with the way our church leader manage its flocks, but at the end of the day, we follow. if you dont, you just get out! and also i dont like the idea that mentioning the "catholic chuch" producing corrupt politicians. unang una, ang simbahan ay hindi isang paaralan na may entrance exam para mapili mo ang mga papasok dito. it is open to everyone, preaches to everyone help those who ask for it. kasalanan ba ng simbahan kung hindi nila maalis ang sungay ng mga politiko?
