They are at it again. Its like watching a
pingpong battle.
The Catholic Bishops Conference of the
Philippines just wont let it go most especially for this particular
administration.

A few days after the president accused one bishop
pocketing church money for his personal use, the chief executive is now being
slammed by another member ot the clergy.
This time Duterte is being accused of creating controversies
to turn the people’s attention away from the perceived inefficiencies of his administration.
“It’s obvious that he
delights in creating controversy to deviate people’s attention from his
government’s inefficiency,” Father Jerome Secillano, the current executive
secretary of the CBCP’s public affairs committee, said in a facebook post.
Father Secillano, was reacting on the previous outbursts of the President urging people to build chapels in their houses instead of going to church.

“I’m not sure if the
President’s urgings can be considered ‘pastoral necessity’ … but his ignorance
of the Church’s workings tells us Catholics that we should neither believe this
guy, nor even take him seriously,” Father Secillano said.
The church, he said,
houses the Eucharist, which is “Christ in the form of host (bread), which is
reserved in the tabernacle.” It cannot be placed in houses, as the “danger for
its desecration may occur,” he said.
