It only shows
majority of the people and the Catholic Church is still not in conformity of
having leftist groups protesting inside churches while a Mass is ongoing.
Ranhilio Callangan
Aquino, dean of San Beda Graduate School of Law and also a priest, said in a
post that “these people should be arrested".
"The Mass and
the Church are not the place for partisan, ideological posturing. People gather
to pray, and to gain respite from the divisiveness outside, and these people
slither into churches, seize the opportunity of a congregation of people and
hijack religious services for their purposes," the Dean said.

Netizens were also
not in approval of the incident, saying that churches are not the right place
for a protest.
"Those carrying
the placards are wrong, obviously they have an intention when they flashed
their propaganda materials inside the church. They were the ones who did not
respect the Church, and maybe the police could no longer wait until the end of
the mass so they acted. The protest was an obstruction of the Mass),"
Lucky Siri said in a post in Filipino.
“No, sa labas dapat.
Proper place to voice out your hinaing..outside the church kung may placards. Kung
kailangan nila si Lord, lumuhod sila at ipagpray nila need nila (It should
be done outside the church, its the proper place to voice out their sentiments,
especially if they have placards. If they need God, get on their knees and
pray)," Tes Santiago, said.
Oresliv Lariza,
meantime, said the move of police personnel to confront them was right.
“I think they should
be doing that outside the church. If they were warned and still they did it, I
guess the police are right. If they follow the rules, it will not arrive at
that)," she said in Filipino.
Fr. Fitz Azul, said
protests are "not okay while mass is ongoing".
"Actually,
during masses or any religious service, I don't want groups or people going
around distributing protest flyers or anything. I don’t want any
distractions. Kahit nga cellphone pinalalagay sa silent mode (even
cellphones are being put on silent mode)," he said.
