5. •Economic activity and material
progress must be placed at the
service of man and society (art
326, CSC)
•Faith in Jesus Christ makes it
possible to have a correct
understanding of social
development (art.327, CSC)
•Goods, even when legitimately
owned, always have a universal
destination: any type of I proper
accumulation is immoral, because
it openly contradicts the universal
destination assigned to all goods
by the Creator (art. 328, CSC).
6. Compendium of the Social
Doctrine of the Church has this to
say (art 324):
•When sought or accepted with a
religious attitude, poverty opens one to
recognizing and accepting the order of
creation
•In this perspective, the “rich man”
is the one who places his trust in
his possessions rather than in God,
he is the man who makes himself
strong by the works of his own
hands and trusts only in his own
strength.
7. •Every human being on earth has a
responsibility to look upon his/her
neighbor (without exception) as
‘another self’.
•This duty of making oneself a
neighbor to others and actively
serving them becomes even more
urgent when it involves the
disadvantaged.
•Jesus said :“As you did it to one of
the least of these my brethren you
did it to me (Article 1931 of The
Catechism of the Catholic Church).
8. 2. The issue of Apathy
One of the most worrying trends in
the Philippines over the past decade is
widespread apathy.
Pope John Paul II said that the greatest
Sin of this world is apathy.
9. Biblical Implication: The Parable of Jesus (Luke 16:19-31)
“There was a rich man who was
dressed in purple and fine linen
and lived in luxury every day.
At his gate was laid a beggar named
Lazarus, covered with sores and
longing to eat what
is left over from the rich man’s
table. Even the dogs came and
licked his sores.
10.
“The time came when the beggar
died and the angels carried him to
Abraham’s side. The rich man also
died and was buried.
In Hades, where he was in torment,
he looked up and saw Abraham far
away, with Lazarus by his side.
So he called to him, ‘Father
Abraham,have pity on me and send
Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger
in water and cool my tongue,
because I am in agony in this fire.’
11. “But Abraham replied, ‘Son, remember that in
your lifetime you received your good things,
while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is
comforted here and you are in agony.
“He answered, ‘Then I beg you, father,
sendrs.Lazarus to my family, for I have five
brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will
not also come to this place of
Torment’.
He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to
Moses and the Prophets, they will not be
convinced even if someone rises from the
dead.’”
15. When man disobeys God and refuses to submit to his rule, nature
rebels against him and no longer recognizes him as its 'master',
for he has tarnished the divine image in himself.
The claim to ownership and use of created things remains still
valid, but after sin its exercise becomes difficult and full of
suffering (cf. Gen 3: 17-19).
16. 3. Degradation of Environment
•The relationship of man with the
world is a constitutive part of
his/her humanity (art 452, CSC)
•Creation is always an object of praise
in Israel’s prayer: Oh Lord How
Manifold are Your Works! In Wisdom
have You Made them All” (Psalm
104:24)
18. •We have inherited from past
generations the beauty of our
environment.
•we have benefited from the work
of our contemporaries in taking
care of our environment.
•Therefore we have the obligation
to take care of the environment for
those who will come after us.
•This is a responsibility that present
generation have towards those of
the future.
19. Care for the environment
represents a challenge for all
of humanity. It is a matter of a
common and universal duty,
that of respecting common
good (466, CSC)
Responsibility for the
environment, the common
heritage of mankind, extends not
only to present needs but also to
those of the future (467, CSC)

A total of P1.2 billion in stimulus funds, the
disbursement of which is under the discretion of
President Aquino, were given most of the
senators between 2012 and 2013, Budget
Secretary Florencio Abad confirmed yesterday
and most were given in October 2012 five
months after the conviction of former Supreme
Court Chief Justice Renato Corona in the Senate
impeachment that led to his ouster.
Sen. Jinggoy Estrada in a privilege speech last
Sept. 25 bared that P50 million was given to
each of the 20 senators who voted to convict
Corona, including himself, and what Estrada
termed as “incentives” were distributed to the
senators through a confidential letter signed by
then chairman of the Senate finance committee
now Senate President Franklin Drilon, a chief
ally of President Aquino.

23. CBCP’s Response on Pork Barrel
•In an unprecedented move, the Catholic
bishops took a collective position against
the Presidential Development Assistance
Fund (PDAF) and unleashed criticisms
against it.
•In a pastoral statement, the Catholic
Bishops’ Conference of the
Philippines (CBCP) said the present
pork barrel practice in government “is
fertile ground for graft and
corruption.”
24. “Promoting the politics of
patronage, it is contrary to the
principles of stewardship,
transparency and
accountability. It is immoral to
continue this practice,”
25. What are these manifested political patronage in our present
government:
1. Pressures to Congressmen to impeach Corona from the
Executive branch of our government:
•The defense panel presented a maverick congressman, Rep.
Tobias Tiangco of Navotas, as its first witness last Monday
when the Senate impeachment court resumed hearings that
gave Chief Justice Renato Corona his day in court.
26. •Tiangco, who didn’t sign the impeachment complaint that 188
other congressmen dispatched with indecent haste to the Senate
last Dec. 12 for trial, testified on the extraordinary pressures
brought to bear on him by his colleagues to join them in the
bandwagon effort to unseat Corona from his lofty position in the
Supreme Court.

27. •THE Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines (CBCP)
encouraged the 64 lawmakers, who did not vote last week during second
reading approval of the controversial reproductive health (RH) bill, to
help in blocking its passage into law.
•In a pastoral letter intended to be read on the first of the nine dawn
masses nationwide, the influential bishops' group "pleaded" to the 64
absent members of the House of Representatives to resist the "worldly
pressures" of voting for it and instead use their conscience
2. On RH bill
28. •"We plead with the 64 congressmen,
who have not voted, to be enlightened
and stand up for the truth. As St. John the
Baptist directed the people to justice, we
call on you also to seek justice for the
Filipino people," said the letter penned
by CBCP vice president Archbishop
Socrates Villegas on behalf of CBCP
President Archbishop Jose Palma, who is
out of the country.

•After 4 weeks of perpetual quorum problems in the House of
Representatives, President Benigno Aquino III has decided to
step in.
•Through a text message sent by Speaker Feliciano Belmonte Jr
to members of the House, President Aquino on Thursday,
November 29, invited House members for a luncheon in
Malacañang on Monday, December 3, in an apparent effort to
break the impasse on the divisive Reproductive Health (RH)
Bill.

33. •Authority must be guided by the moral
law. All of its dignity derives from its being
exercised within the context of the moral
order, “which in turn has God for its first
source and final end” (art. 396, CSC)
•Authority must recognize, respect and
promote essential human and moral
values. These are innate and “flow from
the very truth of the human being and
express and safeguard the dignity of the
person; values which no individual, no
majority and no State can ever create,
modify or destroy” (art 397,CSC)
