Anti Divorce Bill
'm not in favor that Divorce will be legalized in the Philippines. I believe its illegal and against the law of God. Philippines is a Christian culture country and we are the largest Christian Culture of all Asia. I don't like Divorce at all and it has many disadvantages, of course Divorce ends your marriage that invest nothing at end, Divorce cost money and hurts children and also it changes personal relationships.

Many people just don't know the real importance of marriage even before planning of the wedding.
Many of us are very religious and follow strict rules. We Filipinos believe that marriage is sacred in the eyes of God. Divorce is not the solution to the problems of many couple having their difficulties, they should put in their mind that they should save the relationship. They both promise in front of God that they will be as one in dealing life through ups and downs. We should see the other side of the situation and not be selfish. Children is the number one reason to keep the family together and bravely face all the problems. We should stand as the last standing country that did not legalized divorce and fight our dignity as a Filipino and as a person. Love of the family is the Filipino cultural identity. Family is very important and we should not give the evil an opportunity to destroy our gift of life which is our family. I Hope that many people realized the true essence of having a Family. I Will end up this with my deep and brief thought that In time of test, Family is the

The fact that there is so many types of marriage that are present in almost every corner and every culture of our planet, points to the idea that it must be good for something.

    The words “I do”, some of the most significant words to known to a human being, believing in an everlasting love. The tradition that goes into seeing such a beautiful face on such a day makes people think how much relief they can have. All the months of planning and fixing everything to make it perfect finally came. Most people do not realize how much time or adjustments must be made in order to fit their criteria of a “perfect” wedding. Due to financial situations the traditional Mexican wedding cake cannot be afforded or the specific henna of a Morocco wedding. Women, now, pan their weddings and realize that not all traditions can be used in their weddings mainly due to financial purposes. From the cake, dj, ceremony, flowers, reception, music, and many other items used for a traditional wedding, in any culture, can be taken back or left as a last resort if they cannot afford it or they choose not to include that particular time in their wedding and with modern society and changes, keeping tradition is a very difficult thing for people to have. Same sex marriages, being some very abstract to our society, even try to follow as many wedding traditions as they can. In general, many countries have their own ideas and traditions on how their weddings should be and how modern society adjusts to their personal biddings.…

    What’s the first thing that pops into your head when you think “marriage”? Do you smell a home cooked meal waiting on the table, after a long-hard day at work? Do you picture a beautiful home with a white picket fence? Maybe you think about a gorgeous white dress, that was altered to fit you just right. Or maybe it’s not white at all because your favorite color is black, and you refuse to be cliché on what’s supposed to be the most important day of your life. Maybe you see half of everything you own being taken out from under you if this whole “marriage thing” goes south, and that’s just not a chance you’re willing to take. Maybe the thought of being committed to one person for the rest of your life frightens you, and all of a sudden that beautiful woman standing next you is looking more like a prison warden, rather than your future wife. Whatever your views or opinions on marriage may be one things for certain; no one ever walked down the aisle, said their vows, and pledged before God and everyone most precious to them expecting to fail.…

Marriage is the legal and binding union between a man and woman. Yet when couples marry, they vow to stay by their partner 's side ‘till death do us part. ' Currently that vow seems to have little or no value in today 's society. The current statistics for survival of marriage are quite grim. The divorce rate in the United States is somewhere between 50 percent and a startling 67 percent. (KSL News) One contributing factor the growing epidemic of divorce is the parting of different family members or the breakup of the family unit, as well as effect it may have upon the children or the other spouse.…

    Over the years people’s opinions of divorce have changed rapidly. The divorce rate has increased since 1940. Many argue the divorce rate has increased because of the change in society or the rising expectations of marriage. Whereas others disagree and argue that it is because of the changes in law that divorce rates have increased. Divorce has become more socially accepted and there is less social disapproval and condemnation of divorces. Divorce is when married couples can be legally separated which makes them unmarried; Britain has increased in divorce rates by over 100%.…

    But first, did you know the difference of culture and tradition? What is culture? What is tradition? In India, praying at 5 o’clock in the morning and sang the hymns of the day at that time is their culture, it’s like “Angelus” praying at 6 o’clock in the morning or 12 o’clock in the afternoon in the Catholics in the Philippine tradition; ash and smeared on forehead in Indian culture is like “Ash Wednesday” tradition in the Philippines; if you committed innumerable offenses like eating beef and other offenses, you may lost your right in both religion (Hinduism) and caste have similarities in Iglesia ni Cristo who are not allowed to eat “Dinuguan” and Muslims who are not allowed to eat meats (tradition in the Philippines); has hospitality to the visitors is also the same in Philippine culture; has a “betrothal ceremony” has a similarity in courting before the agreement to be married, in the Philippine culture; in Indian culture, the oldest woman in the house became the head of the family while in the Philippine culture, the father is the head of the family; in Indian culture, the bride must learn all the household chores, etc. is same of the culture of the Philippines but if you’re rich and can afford servants or maids, the servants/maid will do the chores for you; And in India there was a prejudice not only against inter-caste marriages but against inter-community too but the Philippines doesn’t have that type of culture, and I’m proud to say that, that we have a democratic country and we can…

Our families provide us with a sense of security, stability, and belongingness. “Hindi siya iba sa atin.” Christ is our “kapatid”, and because of this, we deem ourselves worthy to call God “Ama Namin” and our Lady as “Mahal na Ina”.…
