RE: Policies That Were Implemented in the Philippines Started During American Occupation
Hello, @rei. It would probably help you to read a person's comment more carefully before responding. I advocate self-government under the over-arching principles of God's word…

RE: HELP PLEASE READ! - Asking for help from STEEMIT NETWORK
It doesn't change the fact that taxation is theft. It's good that your needs were met, but that doesn't justify the means by which they were met. Help is honorable when it's provided voluntarily.

RE: HELP PLEASE READ! - Asking for help from STEEMIT NETWORK
Anyway, both programs need to be abolished along with that which funds them. Taxation is theft and government isn't a worthy savior. :-)

RE: Learn Tagalog - Lesson 1 (Basic Greetings)
@immarojas, good point. I think I've heard it used a couple of times, though...or maybe I was dreaming. Anyway, I should probably do a separate post on Filipino English. For…

RE: Learn Tagalog - Lesson 1 (Basic Greetings)
Thanks. Interestingly, "Filipino" (Tagalog) is a second language to many people in the Philippines. Down in Cebu, for example, people speak Cebuano in everyday life. Up north…

RE: Atheism Talk: The Problem of Evil
The argument itself necessarily presupposes a Christian worldview. Please refer to the late Greg Bahnsen.

RE: Help Us Move Away From Dog Killers!
Hey. We talked already, but I'm commenting for other readers, and I'm adding a couple of things to what I said earlier. (1) Republic Act 8485 (mentioned above) prohibits dog…

RE: Help Us Move Away From Dog Killers!
Over here, you can be shot or jailed for a long time for smoking some weed, but this? Pffff...People get away with this sort of thing all the time.

RE: A Cuban-American's Move to the Philippines (Part 1)
Thanks! It'll be up soon. I originally had it published in a short e-book format on Kindle, but I unpublished the e-book and gave @awesomenyl a thumbs up for posting it on here.…

Thanks for the upvote, Marly. I'm @awesomenyl's hubby--the writer of this piece. My grandfather was born in the Canary Islands and he went to Cuba from there. Regards! :-)

RE: Poverty and SHABU or cystal meth...
As mentioned before, plenty of people rape, murder, and steal while drunk on alcohol (without being on other drugs). We hold those people accountable for their crimes of…

Supposedly, he's considering the legalization of cannabis for medical reasons, but I don't think that's good enough. Actually, the concept of legalization misses the point…

RE: Alcohol and heart failure...to heart transplant.
Have you had sake? I think it kind of tastes like sake, except that it's not hot (sake can be hot/warm). It has a distinct flavor, but it reminds me of sake more than anything else.

RE: Alcohol and heart failure...to heart transplant.
I never knew about it until I came to the Philippines. My wife's mom likes it, so I usually tell her, "Nanay, inom tayo." Haha. We don't drink a lot, though. BTW, a liter is…

RE: Alcohol and heart failure...to heart transplant.
It tastes a little bit like sake, but it's made from coconut. Yes, it's strong. It's good to have just a bit, with lots of water afterward.

RE: New drug rehabilitation centre in the Philippines...a new DAWN.
I take comfort in the fact that many Filipinos I know denounce Duterte - for example, my buddies over at Filipino Libertarians (FB). They aren't the only ones. :-)
