Pro Rh Bill
I am in favor of the Reproductive Health Bill/RH Bill, not because I don’t believe in God or I disobey His rules but let’s open our eyes on our countries status. As of now our country is growing and continues to grow. We are in number 65 out of 144 economies in the world. But, as you can see, we are still behind when regards to economic growth. I don’t believe those who say that over population is not a problem. Because, I do believe that overpopulation is a big, big problem. The Philippines is having a large population. And this large population is admittedly one of the main causes of our poverty since the government had difficulty in addressing the needs of its people. The population of the Philippines makes it “the 12th most populous nation in the world today”. RH Bill assures the availability and access to a full range of methods, techniques, supplies and services that contribute to reproductive and sexual health and well-being. With these, our number will become manageable and eventually, our country will be in progress. RH bill doesn’t promote abortion but it rather prevents abortion. The RH bill protects the life of the both the mother and the baby in her womb. Supporting the bill is more PRO-LIFE. Life begins at fertilization. Therefore, if there’s no fertilization, there’s no life. The use of artificial contraception is not taking away life because life has not yet started. I am PRO RH Bill simply because it disturbs me to see people in my age carrying babies. And what’s more disturbing is their situation. They don’t have the capacity to support these babies. I am also PRO RH Bill because it could prevent maternal deaths. RH Bill also provides quality life for a family. And there would also be a population management. The RH Bill promotes awareness and education, which are the initial steps in creating a well-founded society. One of the key components of this bill is the advocacy of family-planning for couples. This way, they can decide on the proper

    I am not against RH bill, and I am not pro abortion, it’s just I want to teach people lesson on giving birth among children whom they can’t support and will be like others begging on the streets and in the end be one of the government dependents. But I am not allowing manipulations or tricks just to fool us around, just to crash moral issues and other objections. I still believe in the moral values our late Pres. Cory imbued to our present president today and will do what is good for our country with due respect and transparency to all Filipino…

    Right to Abortion

    • 726 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Today, abortion and the right of legalization of abortion, is one of the few controversial subjects among all whether they are involved directly or indirectly, whether they are for it or against it. Many people feel aborting an unwanted child or killing an unwanted child should be against the law. Many people don’t know what abortion is, who can receive abortions, and why people would even choose to get them. Personally, I agree with abortion, since I think every last person is entitled to his or her own opinions, beliefs, thoughts, and rights. Further, legalization of abortion benefits reduces injury and death caused by unsafe illegal abortion, reduces motherhood punishment for having a sexual intercourse, and gives women more opportunities continue working on goals of education and career.…

    Population control comes in many forms: cancer, famine, A.I.D.S, genocide, war and natural disasters, but never has one been so celebrated and socially accepted before abortion. Abortion has been practiced for hundreds of years and medical technology has advanced accordingly; providing a safer and much more sanitary procedure for the women receiving the operation, but the result remains the same for the defenseless child. Abortion continues to be one of the most debated and country dividing topics this nation has seen. In the recent past, there has been steady movement towards the governmental restrictions of abortion. The Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003 was one of the greatest victories in congress related to this topic. The ban restricts a certain form of abortion (partial-birth abortion) past 24 weeks from conception (United States Congress). Even though this is a positive step in the right and moral direction, the act needs to be revised. It needs to have the allotted time reduced from 24 weeks to 20 weeks based upon new medical research that fetuses can “feel pain” prior to 24 weeks. Abortion will never become completely illegal (that is just harsh reality), but the restrictions that govern abortions can be fine tuned to incorporate a smaller and more humane window for abortions.…

    Against Abortion

    • 1326 Words
    • 6 Pages

    I am strongly against abortion and feel that no one has the right to take away another's life. I do, however, feel that if the mother's life is in danger that all of the precautionary steps should be taken to prevent having to use abortion, but if that is the only way to save the mother's life, then an abortion should be performed. I do not believe in the selfish reasons of taking another's life especially due to the lack of judgment on the parents' actions. Abortion is a totally unacceptable, cruel and unethical practice and should be considered illegal except under some special cases and medical circumstances that indicate a danger to the mother. Our judicial system must consider the ethical and moral aspects of abortion as an intrinsic part of the problem when approaching this social issue. The recent banning and Adoption can be a good thing but only if the mother can stand to give up her body to a parasite for 0 months then decide to give it up and some women simply cannot do that, it's is something that they can’t bear to take that.…

    Abortion is a very controversial subject. Many are pro, many are against it. There are various arguments supporting both sides. Some people consider abortion as dangerous act and on social ground it is also regarded as sinful, immoral and irresponsible deed which can easily threaten our society. That is why it is considered as something, mankind should put a ban on. “On the other hand, a pregnancy may prevent women from keeping their jobs, from feeding their families, and from serving others in ways they consider necessary and appropriate” (Social Issues). Pregnancy and childbirth may determine a woman’s future, her education and life as a whole. In this sense the right to an abortion allows a woman to make her own choice, to have control over her body and sometimes it turns out to be the right thing to do.…

    Rh Bill Opinion

    Many thought that the bill would never pass, because the country has been divided in its stand; the church, particularly the Roman Catholics are too strong and are very emphatic in their opposition about the said issue. However, pro RH bill supporters have expressed and fought for their thoughts and have found an ally in President Noynoy Aquino, who took office as President of the Philippine Republic in 2010. The Reproductive Health Bill will have its wide implications for improving the health and lives of women throughout the country. After researching about this bill, I have learned about the many advantages that will help the Filipinos especially the youth in uplifting their social and moral values. Contrary to what other people believed, I also support the pro RH Bill because from my point of view, it provides many advantages. I would like to raise my opinion on the following issues which I have researched extensively regarding the RH Bill:…

    The latest version of the RH Bill2 does not refer to any specific problem related to demography. It does not mention at all the typical justification of population-control-to-eradicate-poverty. This version3 refers to reproductive health per se. The Philippines, according to this Bill, needs a law on reproductive health. By implication, it says that the Philippines does not have any law that addresses the reproductive health needs, an implication that is incorrect since there are already laws that address many of the provisions of the Bill.4…

It is still on the big debate and deliberation, but the people concerned are still fighting for the RB bill to became proven law by the senate & house of representative.

There will be better life for every child born, because their parents could provide them good food, shelter & education. Proper family planning would also lessen the number of street children. There will be responsible parenthood.…

    When is the real date or time that RH bill is introduced to our country? According to the Senate Policy Brief titled "Promoting Reproductive Health", the history of reproductive health in the Philippines dates back to 1967 when leaders of 12 countries including the Philippines' Ferdinand Marcos signed the Declaration on Population. The Philippines agreed that the population problem should be considered as the principal element for long-term economic development. Thus, the Population Commission was created to push for a lower family size norm and provide information and services to lower fertility rates.…

    The main purpose of Reproductive Health Bill or RH Bill is to provide family planning especially to the poor families and safe contraceptives to the people. It also helps prevent overpopulation which causes famine and poverty in our country Philippines. Furthermore, it helps prevent the abortion in the society. The government is in favor of the bill while the Roman Catholic Church is not, because they said that the bill is a hindrance to the life given by the Almighty God and they are against this bill, because it prevents the production of life which is against the law of God and according to them, they only prevent life which God has given us.…
