Married to a Filipina, this matter actually hits close to home. Proud of them for still fighting.
unfortunately, the Philippines is fast becoming an "in-name-only" Catholic country, they idolize the west and American materialism, God willing they can get back the mentality of what made them a great Catholic country.

Sad but true. Especially with Malta legalizing divorce recently.

As someone of partial Filipino extraction, this is true.
We can't serve God and Mammon. For each of us, one wins out!

What we need is good Catholics to come over here and teach us how to be good Catholics.
