On CBCP Statement on Gambling

According to Oscar V. Cruz, D.D.
CBCP declares: no to gambling!

No to gambling in all its illegal clandestine forms. No as well to gambling in all its legal open casinos.
I don't know if it is true to their heart, na ayaw nila sa gambling. Isipin mo ha?!? Sasabihin na ayaw sa gambling, but they are receiving funds from gambling. Hindi ba't yan ang ibinunyag ng isang legal councel ng Simbahan?

At di ko rin makalimutan ang isang pahayag noon ni Cardinal Sin, noong panahon pa ng kainitan ng empeachment trial against Erap, "...Kahit sa demonyo pa yan galing tatanggapin ng Simbahan." Ang tinutukoy dito ni Cardinal ay ang mga funds na galing sa sugal.

Minsan talaga hindi natin maiintindihan ang Simbahan. Parang ano, bawal daw ang pumatay ng tao, pero noong panahon ng tigurian ng mga historian as Dark Ages, ang Simbahan mismo ang nagpapatay sa atas ng Inquisition ng Santo Papa sa Roma. Ganyan lang naman yan e. Kunwari ayaw o bawal, diba?

At first, I felt bad learning that my faith was being talked about by this minister and I considered it an attack to my faith. But it did not hinder me to continue to listen the preaching. I just breathed deeply and opened my mind to the attack and tried to understand wh
