Tañada v. Tuvera, GR 63915, Dec. 29, 1986
   
    The Supreme Court cannot rule upon the wisdom of a law or to repeal or modify it if it finds it impractical. That is not its function. That function belongs to the legislature. The task of the Supreme Court is merely to interpret and apply the law as conceived and approved by the political departments of the government in accordance with prescribed procedure.
   (Nota Bene: Executive Order 200, dated June 18,
1987,  modifying Article 2 of the Civil Code, now provides for the publication of laws either  in the Official Gazette  or in a newspaper of general circulation in the Philippines as a requirement for effectivity.)
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. - John 3:16-18
