"DAVAO CITY — In spite of solid restriction from the
Catholic Church, hypothetical President-choose Rodrigo Duterte on Sunday said
he would push for Family Planning, saying the Church’s beliefs were no longer
relevant.
"It will benefit us. Mas maraming magawa 'yan, walang
kasamaan 'yan (It will fulfill numerous things, it won't do any damage). Ako
naman, I said, I am a Christian however I am a realist and we need to take care
of overpopulation," Duterte told journalists.
He said he may irritate the religious sector with his
announcements yet he said their "essential convictions don't take care of
the issue of our nation any longer."
"I take the inverse perspective; I resist the conclusion or
the conviction of the Congregation," he said.
He said the sacred texts in the Book of scriptures reffered to
by his faultfinders were no more applicable to society.
"The thoughts there (were) written 2000 years back and it
doesn't relate or discover significance to our general public," he
said.
"I don't give much significance to the otherworldly; walang
maitutulong iyan, sa totoo lang (It won't help, to let you know reality). What
you ought to stress over is the way you endure here on this planet. You don't
stress over anguish after you make the way out," he included.
Prior, Duterte said that he puts stock in God yet not inexorably
in religion.
"The best thing is just to plan and appeal to God when you
are separated from everyone else and in a peaceful room," he said.
"I have this profound and tolerating confidence in God. Be
that as it may, this doesn't imply that you need to have a religion or tail
some individual," he included.
