The headline (Civil disobedience still a CBCP option. Bishops say they have moral authority to call for) seems to ready the reader for a showdown between the Church and the Government as far as the RH Bill is concerned. The news include opinions from both side of the issue and seems fair. However, of course, the issue is still a non-issue when in fact everyone is not actually talking about specifics but on the broader issue of Church versus State policies.
The other news today:
Analysis. RH bill fight may damage Church - An analysis by Doronila who is known to have supported President Aquino in the campaign with his views, that is based on wrong premises: that the Bishops threatened the President with Excommunication (the church did not) and that the President is steadfast in his decisions (he did not make any decision).
