Stable , secured income is worth more than all the talks in the world.

To be a millionaire, one must show prudence, vigilance (in knowing where to invest and not), fiscal conservatism (do not spend gregariously..when not needed).

If I were based in the Philippines, Virgil, I would invest in real-estate. Buy homes, apartments, and cater to the student population.

Tagbilaran, just from my observation this summer, has become a large educational hub. Providing homes for students would be an excellent way to generate renewable income. To maintain and preserve the income, i would also invest in security guards.

Network your company. Display cards, and signs about your safe, affordable, housing units for students.

Another one would be the creation of a security guard firm. Considering the rising theft situations in Bohol, it would be opportune for someone with capital (liquid asset) to start a security firm considering the growing businesses in Bohol and the stagnation of the Bohol Police.

When I went to the Police station in bohol to report a theft, i found out that there are less than 100 police officers in the entire city of Tagbilaran. A city with a population of almost 100,000 people has less than 100 police units to patrol all sectors.

This makes a security guard firm most attractive and lucrative.

Expect more businesses to rise as the economy and foreigner displacement continues in earnest.

The key to this is getting to know political members, so as to safeguard your company and meet key foreign firms.

another good idea on how to be a millionaires but the thread is how old are you when you earn your first million..ahehe..

That is a very good idea indeed . But the point is how old somebody earn his or her first million is the main thing. Bisan after thAt he go bankrupt.The next million is another story. ahehe..

I find it interesting how a man is considered 'milyonaryo' if he owns a car/ suv/ truck in the Philippines.

In America, a man is considered a millionaire when he has at least $1,000,000 + in his bank account.

It doesn't matter as long as your assets total to a million like a house,cars,realty etc.. As long as you own it not your family..

MANILA, Philippinesâ€"The number of Filipino nurses aspiring to practice their profession in the United States continued to drop year-on-year in the third quarter, the Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP) said over the weekend.

In a news release, TUCP secretary-general and former senator Ernesto Herrera said only 2,227 Filipino nurses took the US NCLEX for the first time from July to September, down 38 percent or 1,355 fewer compared to the 3,582 in the same three-month period in 2009.

TUCP now expects some 5,000 fewer Filipino nurses taking the NCLEX the whole of this year, according to Herrera, former chairman of the Senate committee on labor, employment and human resources development.

Thus far, a total of 7,780 Filipino nurses took the NCLEX for the first time from January to September, down 35 percent or 4,074 less versus the 11,854 in the same nine-month period last year.

The NCLEX is the licensure exam administered by the US National Council of State Boards of Nursing Inc. The number of Filipino nurses taking the test for the first time is a reliable indicator as to how many of them are trying to enter the profession in the US, Herrera said.

A total of 15,382 Filipino nurses took the NCLEX for the first time in the whole of 2009, down 5,364 or 26 percent from 20,746 in 2008. All told, since 2005, some 90,000 Filipino nurses have taken the NCLEX for the first time, that is, excluding repeaters.

Despite the decline in the number of Filipinos nurses seeking US employment, Herrera said the Philippines remains America's largest supplier of new foreign nurses, after India, South Korea, Canada, and Nigeria.

Outside the US, the Philippines is also the United Kingdom's third biggest supplier of new foreign nurses, after India and Australia.

Herrera said many Filipino nurses have temporarily sought employment in local industries, mainly services, while waiting for more gainful work in foreign labor markets.

"We now have thousands of registered nurses engaged in services that have nothing to do with their profession, working as contact center staff, baristas, cashiers, even lotto terminal operators," Herrera said.

The Philippine Nurses Association (PNA) earlier estimated at 200,000 the jobless nurses in the country. "A total of 37,679 new practitioners passed the local licensure exam in July. They are now competing for jobs with some 160,000 unemployed nurses," PNA said.

TUCP supports the continued deployment of Filipino nurses to lucrative overseas labor markets. "We obviously have a large surplus of nurses," Herrera said.

"We would prefer that government encourage the deployment of nurses, and discourage the placement of domestic helpers overseas," Herrera said.

"Filipino nurses abroad are generally less vulnerable to employer abuse. Their skills protect them. Their skills are not easy to replace, so employers are careful not to mistreat and drive them away," he said.

"As to domestic helpers, they are extremely susceptible to abuse because they live with their employers, and their skills are easy to replace," Herrera said.

"In Hong Kong for instance, for every Filipino domestic helper, there could be dozens of Indonesians, Thais, and even local Chinese replacements waiting in line. This is also true in the Middle East. Potential substitutes from Sri Lanka and Indonesia abound," he added.

Forget Damaso,remember Sister Christine


Forget Damaso, remember Sister Christine
By Benjamin Pimentel
INQUIRER.net First Posted 10:58:00 10/10/2010 Filed Under: Religion & Belief, Churches (organisations), Health, Women, Human Rights, Americas - Canada



CALIFORNIA, United Statesâ€"She was the nun the Catholic church threatened to excommunicate.

Too bad Sister Christine Tan is no longer around to join the latest fight against the Catholic hierarchy. She would have been a valuable ally in P-Noy’s bold decision to push a key social policy, even if it meant taking on the Catholic powers-that-be.

For she herself once faced the risk of being subjected to perhaps the most painful punishment a nun or priest could imagine. The reason: She dared oppose the brutal regime of Ferdinand Marcos.

“Once during martial law, when we major superiors dared oppose the dictatorship, I was summoned to Rome,” Sister Christine recalled in an essay she wrote before her death in 2003. “I remember the 14 doors that I passed through, only to be told by a cardinal that if I did not cooperate with our regime, I would be excommunicated.”

She was unfazed by the threat.

“I sighed," she wrote, "not because of the senseless threat, but because of the thousands of pesos spent on fare, when this could easily have been done with a single stamp."

Now that's one gutsy religious leader worthy of respect.

As I noted in my last column, the recent Catholic hierarchy tantrum over birth control would make any Filipino lose faith in the church.

But Sister Christine’s story highlights an important point: The Catholic church is not monolithic.

There are, in fact, two churches. Sister Christine represented, as one Facebook friend put it, “the living progressive church.”

And she had more than her share of battles with the other church. The institution that is so adamantly opposed to contraceptives, believes women should stay home and be subservient to their husbands, hates gays and lesbians, tells poor people to bear suffering, and tells everyone to not challenge authority with whom it is alignedâ€"even if it’s a greedy bully like Marcos.

“As to the institutional church, that monolithic fort of mitered men, how I suffered from their arrogance,” Sister Christine wrote.

“How healthy it was to be misunderstood, especially by those who mattered,” she also said. “How faith-filled it was to be the enemy of the dictator, the target of rightists. How liberating it was not to be swept by the tide.”

A powerful insight from someone who spent most of her life swimming against the tide.

Remembering people like Sister Christine is partly why I had mixed thoughts about Carlos Celdran's famous Damaso protest.

The creative disruption of a Catholic ceremony certainly gave the Catholic establishment a much-needed joltâ€"but it was also the equivalent of a shotgun blast. It may have alienated too many people--including some members of the clergy who are probably shaking their heads in private over their superiors’ Medieval cluelessness, priests and nuns who may also be inspired by Sister Christine’s life of commitment to social justice.

For hers was an amazing story of commitment and spiritual enlightenment.

It’s about a woman from a relatively affluent family who decided to become a nun, but later found the cloistered life limiting. She then discovered her calling: to be a warrior for the poor with whom she lived and struggled against the forces of injustice and greed in Philippine society.

Her battles covered a broad range of issues, from human rights and workers rights, to Philippine democracy and sovereignty.

And she never stopped fighting.

When I interviewed her in 1996 in her home in Leveriza, the urban poor community in Manila, Sister Christine was critical of how, despite the fall of the dictator, there was still so much inequality in the country under Corazon Aquino and Fidel Ramos.

“There are more Marcoses todayâ€"before, there was only one,” she told me. “That's what's wrecking our countryâ€"the politicians. There is a new elite far richer than 10 years ago and far more powerful.”

As the showdown with the Catholic hierarchy continues, it’s important to remember that, yes, Padre Damaso is still out there. (I bet there are even a few Padre Salvis around, preying not just on the meek Maria Claras, but also on the helpless Crispins and Basilios.)

But there are also other church figures that could inspire and move us.

And they’re not fictional characters from a classic novel. They’re real people whose remarkable life stories are an important part of the Filipino epic.

In her essay, Sister Christine also said, “As for adulation, positions, praises poured on meâ€"they are just bubbles that disappear with a sneeze.”

It’s the one thing she says in that beautiful essay that I truly hope proves to be wrong.

For these days, we should recall and celebrate all that adulation and praise for a nun who personified the compassionate and socially relevant church that every Filipino would be proud to embrace.

CALIFORNIA, United Statesâ€"In January of this year, I wrote the following material which was published and included as a part of my regular column by three newspapers. It was a response to a letter sent by a reader. Since then, I have had so many requests to have the material reprinted. Here it is.

Dear Attorney, I am a 72-year-old retired accountant who did well in the US. A widower, I married my attractive 25-year-old wife three years ago. We come from the same barrio in Nueva Vizcaya. I brought her to the US and she certainly has a much better life now. I gave her parents a generous sum of money when we married and send them money now and then. I was very happy until I discovered her affair with a co-worker. I discovered the sizzling exchanges of romantic text messages in her cell phone. I confronted her and she tearfully confessed, asking for forgiveness. She says this young man had been very aggressive and she tried to resist but eventually gave in. She has been seeing him for three weeks now. I want to hurt this guy. I feel devastated and hurt by the betrayal. I want my wife deported. Can you please help me on this?â€"Ben

Dear Manong Ben, Here’s my take on your situation: I understand your anguish, confusion, and anger. You cannot eat, sleep, or concentrate. Conjured scenarios of your young wife in wild passionate sensual engagement swirl in your brain with tortuous repetition. Your initial reaction reeks of revenge: Deport her. Condemn her back to barrio poverty and boredom. Get a hit-man to bury this bum alive. Rip his head off. Chop off his thing.

You would not be human if you had no such reactions.

Cool it and look at reality and the big picture. Most likely she married you not so much for your Piolo Pascual looks but because of your tender waysâ€"legal tender that is. You made yourself attractive by going green. You showered her parents with green bucks. Your fat wallet and your blue US passport made you super pogi. You gave her an offer she could not refuse: escape from the barrio, a green card, nice clothes, nice cars, great food, a nice house and spending money. That’s fine. Hey, you do what you gotta do to achieve your goal. You made other old guys’ fantasies a reality. That shows guts. But Manong, marrying an attractive woman 47 years youngerâ€"I am sure you are awareâ€"has its risks. You assumed that risk.

Most likely she never intended to cheat on you. Extramarital affairs are often unintended. But shift happens. Her attention shifted to another guy. Kalibidohan, kakulangan, and kalungkutan are to blame, operating singularly or in combination.

It’s a friendly planet except when an old guy’s young attractive wife meets a young aggressive stallion. I am sure she initially resisted the stud’s advances but because of kalibidohan, that is, tyrannical biological and hormonal imperatives, resistance eventually converted to welcomed acceptance. Kakulangan is simply unsatisfied kalibidohan, which may have been a factor. Kalungkutan, loneliness, may have also played a part.

What then? Anger, hate, resentment, thoughts of revenge? These won’t help. These destructive negatives increase your blood pressure, eat you up, and drown you in constant misery and depression. They can even drive you to insanity.

What then should you do? Here’s my advice: For your psychological-emotional survival and because it is the right and good thing to do, unconditionally forgive her and cease demonizing her.

Deeply understand that she is only human like all of us. Once you forgive her and forget her indiscretions, your peace will come back to you. The tightness in your chest, the headaches, sleepless nights, thoughts of revengeâ€"all will vanish like sidewalk ice melted by the hot sun. You can then proceed with your life. Forgiving heals your hurt and makes you feel good about yourself. This is good science.

Forget about deporting her. Revenge and bitterness won’t do much good. And, since you had a genuine good faith marriage, a good lawyer can prevent her from being deported. I know I can.

If she leaves you or if you leave her, genuinely wish her well. You gave her a chance for a better life. Be happy about that. You made a big difference in one person’s lifeâ€"maybe several persons, if you include her family. In exchange, you had her for three good years, enjoyed her company, made love to her. She made you feel young again. She may even have been a good cook.

Do your crying, sincerely forgive, forget, and move on. Don’t let your dark side dominate.

If you cannot really live without her, then tell her so. Love her not only as a wife but as a human being. Affirm your love despite her extramarital liaisons. Risk being a fool. It’s all right. Love begets love, especially true, honest-to-goodness love. Who knows, she might get tired of her young lothario and appreciate you more and truly love you.

If this does not work, nothing prevents you from divorcing her, returning to your barrio and marrying another woman. Maybe Manong, a little older this time? Good luck. Take care.â€"Ted]  By Ted Laguatan, Esq.

Gwapo ngano ang mga TBN officials man ma deport pag sure oy nga ang mga officials nag issue man ug resibo sa nadawat nila nga mga money... But ang wala mosulod unya ginangkon nga money sa anchorman natural dili na gyud na maresibuhan... Mao na akong gi tubag si DABIANA dire kay nasakpan nako nga nag recruit ug donors sa TBN kay PRO siya nga wala makigsabot sa mga BOD ug wala pud niya hisguti nga isyuhan sila ug resibo... nga TBN man ang iyang gigamit... Sama nimo nga mitubag sad nga mihatag mo ug monthly dues sa Ireland thru Gerry Pabe... Mao na nga issue kay giangkon man nga money sa iyang anak mao wala i report sa TBN Volunteers Club, Inc.... Mao mo intervene ka kay sayop ninyo mi hatag mo kwarta nga declare mo monthly dues nga wala moabot sa Organization ang money...Daghan diri sad nangutana kung nalista ba ang ilang annual dues sa club sa among books kay mihatag na sila thru DYRD...

The union of flight stewards and attendants of Philippine Airlines (PAL), the country’s largest airline, on Monday criticized Cebu Pacific Air (CEB) for having lady flight attendants dance while giving out pre-flight safety instructions, branding the gimmick as “sexist and gender-insensitive".

In a statement, the Flight Attendants and Stewards Association of the Philippines (FASAP) said it is “deeply perturbed" by the video spreading on the Internet of flight attendants dancing to catchy songs while doing the pre-flight seatbelt and life vest demonstration.

“While it may look like a harmless publicity stunt to attract passengers at first glance, in the long run the stereotyping of flight attendants as entertainers will surely have a negative and sexist impact in the minds of the public, at the expense of the unwitting female-dancer-flight attendants," said FASAP, the union claiming it has some 1,600 members.

The group said the video, showing the lady attendants dancing to Lady Gaga’s “Just Dance" and Katy Perry’s “California Gurls", has been eliciting sexist comments on YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter.

As of Monday, or just four days after it was uploaded on YouTube, the video has breached five million views with some 10,000 comments some of which made references to the “beautiful ladies" and asked why the they did not “strip" at the end of the clip. The practice is discriminatory and unacceptable, according to FASAP, saying airlines in other countries have scrapped similar gimmicks in the past decades.

“This gender insensitive packaging is a throwback to the unenlightened past during the 50s and 60s when “stewardesses" were made to wear hot pants and mini-skirts to appeal to the dominantly male business travelers," the group said in the statement.

“Flight attendants are safety professionals and to require them to dance in front of passengers is demeaning and undignified… Flight attendants are not entertainers, they are safety professionals," FASAP added.

FASAP is thus urging Cebu Pacific to reconsider its recent gimmick “for the sake of gender sensitivity and professionalism".

The group earlier filed cases against PAL, alleging gender discrimination for its “absurd" grooming standards, forced retirement policy for 40-year-old attendants, and refusal to employ “older" women and pregnant flight attendants. - GMANews.tv

na inggit lang ni sila maghimo sab sila ug ilang gimmick nga ang mga stewardess nakasoot ug mugbo nga palda kanang makita nang iting pareho sa mga babaye sa HOOTERS didto sa America..Unya inig demo nila pasumangil ug na hulog ang salvavida dayun tuwad kay a puniton...Bullseye..modaghan gyud ilang pasahero nga mga laki hehehe...

One priest does not represent all the priests in The Holy Roman Catholic Church.
Sorry, the minority does not represent the majority.

We are sympathetic for any cases of abuses in some parishes, and we pray for God's Grace to go to those who are hurt.
But I will stress that just because some sheep go astray, this does not constitute or represent the flock that walk solemnly in Christ.

AMEN!

PROBE SHOWS 30 ABUSIVE PRIEST SHUFFLED AROUND GLOBE,ALSO TO PHILIPPINES

RIO DE JANEIROâ€"There he was, five decades later, the priest who had raped Joe Callander in Massachusetts. The photo in the Roman Catholic newsletter showed him with a smile across his wrinkled face, near-naked Amazon Indian children in his arms and at his feet.

The Rev. Mario Pezzotti was working with children and supervising other priests in Brazil.

It’s not an isolated example.

A priest who admitted to abuse in Los Angeles went to the Philippines, where US Church officials mailed him checks and advised him not to reveal their source.

In an investigation spanning 21 countries across six continents, The Associated Press found 30 cases of priests accused of abuse who were transferred or moved abroad. Some escaped police investigations.

A priest in Canada was convicted of sexual abuse and then moved to France, where he was convicted of abuse again in 2005. Another priest was moved back and forth between Ireland and England, despite being diagnosed as a pederast, a man who commits sodomy with boys.

The pattern

“The pattern is if a priest gets into trouble and it’s close to becoming a scandal or if the law might get involved, they send them to the missions abroad,” said Richard Sipe, a former Benedictine monk and critic of what he says is a practice of international transfers of accused and admitted priest child abusers. “Anything to avoid a scandal.”

Church officials say that in some cases, the priests themselves moved to another country and the new parish might not have been aware of past allegations.

In other cases, officials said they did not believe the allegations, or that the priest had served his time and reformed.

Missionary in Bohol

Joseph Skelton was a 26-year-old student at St. John Provincial Seminary in Detroit, Michigan, in 1988 when he was convicted of sexual misconduct with a 15-year-old boy. He was given three years’ probation and dismissed from his seminary.

READ â€" Archdiocese Didn’t Publicize Priest’s Abuse Cases, Group Says

Two decades later, he lives in the Philippines, where he was ordained a priest and now serves as parochial vicar of the St. Vincent Ferrer parish in the remote town of Calape, in Bohol, according to the diocese directory. He is also a popular gospel singer in the heavily Catholic country.

Reached on his cell phone, Skelton declined comment.

He finished his seminary studies in Manila and was ordained in 2001 in the diocese of Tagbilaran. The bishop who ordained Skelton said he wouldn’t have made him a priest if he had known about the criminal conviction.

“I ordained him because, while there was some talk about his effeminate ways, there was no case against him,” Bishop Leopoldo S. Tumulak said.

Tumulak, who has since stepped down, said it would be up to his successor to reopen the case.

If he has changed…

“The priest is trying to live well,” Tumulak said. “If he has really changed, the heart of the Church is compassionateâ€"although in America, Europe, they have different ways of looking at it. Not the Church, but the government, the people. In the Philippines, it’s a little bit different.”

The archdiocese of Detroit, after learning Skelton had been ordained, sent a letter about his conviction to the Tagbilaran diocese in 2003. Tumulak said he doesn’t remember if he received the letter, and in any case it would have been too late.

Current Bishop Leonardo Medroso said he would investigate. But he added: “The case has been judged already. He was convicted and that means to say he has served already the conviction. So what obstacle can there be if he has already served his punishment or penalty?”

Cured in the jungle

Joe Callander says he was 14 when he was raped three times and abused on other occasions in 1959 at the now-closed Xaverian Missionary Faith High School in Holliston, Massachusetts. The Xaverians settled the case for $175,000 in 1993. At least two other accusations of sexual abuse were leveled against the Rev. Mario Pezzotti in the Boston area.

In the meantime, from 1970 to 2003, Pezzotti was in Brazil, where he worked with the Kayapo Indians. In a note of apology to Callander in 1993, Pezzotti said he had cured himself in the jungle.

“Upon arrival in Brazil, confiding in God’s mercy, I owned up to the problem,” Pezzotti wrote. “With divine help, I overcame it.”

Reached by telephone, Pezzotti, now 75, said only: “I don’t see why I have to talk about it. Everything was resolved and I don’t feel like talking.”

Barred in US

Fr. Vijay Vhaskr Godugunuru was forced to return to India and then was transferred to Italy after pleading no contest to assaulting a 15-year-old girl while visiting friends in Florida. He now ministers to a parish in Tuscany, where he hears confessions, celebrates Mass and works with children.

The bishops supervising him said they were aware of the case but believed he was innocent.

“The evidence that has been given does not support the accusation,” Monsignor Rodolfo Cetoloni, the bishop of the Montepulciano diocese, told the AP.

Godugunuru, now 40, “enjoys the esteem of everybody,” he said.

Godugunuru had been charged with fondling a parishioner in her family’s van in June 2006. He denied intentionally touching her.

He faced up to five years in prison and a $5,000 fine but in exchange for his no contest plea was required to return to India, undergo counseling, not supervise minors for a year and not to return to the United States.

‘A popular game’

Clodoveo Piazza is an Italian Jesuit who ran a homeless shelter for street children and worked in Brazil for 30 years.

Last August, prosecutors said at least eight boys and young men had come forward to say either that they were abused by Piazza or that he allowed visiting foreigners to sexually abuse boys. Brazilian police are seeking his arrest.

Piazza now works in Mozambique, according to the Catholic nonprofit Organizzazione di Aiuto Fraterno, and the Church has come to his defense.

“The Italian Jesuits express their solidarity with the brother and father Piazza,” reads one note on the group’s website. It adds that “the slander against missionaries is becoming an increasingly popular game.”

Piazza said the charges were false and part of a campaign to blackmail him by “political circles” in Brazil. He said he had been acquitted of the charges twice in Brazil, and that there is no evidence against him.

Geographical cure

The Rev. Enrique Diaz Jimenez of Colombia was punished three times in three different countries.

He pleaded guilty to sexually abusing three boys while a priest in New York in the mid-1980s, and was sentenced in April 1991 to five years’ probation and four months of an “intermittent sentence.”

He resumed work as a priest in Venezuela, where he was suspended from the priesthood in 1996 for 20 years after 18 boys accused him of molesting them.

Diaz returned to Colombia in 1996 and again found work as a priest. Prosecutors say he was charged in 2001 with molesting one more boy and pleaded guilty.

Transferring abusive priests was called “the geographical cure,” according to Terry Carter, a New Zealand victim.

$32K in settlement

Carter won $32,000 in compensation from the Society of Mary, which oversees the Catholic boarding school outside Wellington where he was abused by the Rev. Allan Woodcock.

Woodcock molested 11 boys at four church facilities before being sent to Ireland. He was extradited to New Zealand in 2004, pleaded guilty to 21 sexual abuse charges and was sentenced to seven years in jail. He was paroled in 2009.

He was removed from the priesthood in 2001, a spokesperson for the group said.

U

What can you say about the Cardinal who cover up a paedophile priest for the sake of Catholic religion.. it is not a good example for honesty.. Church in Ireland urged to quit over abuse victims' silence vow

Cardinal Sean Brady

Staying put: Cardinal Sean Brady has said he acted promptly against Father Brendan Smyth

The leader of the Roman Catholic Church in Ireland is facing huge pressure to resign amid allegations he witnessed teenage abuse victims take vows of silence over a paedophile.

Cardinal Sean Brady, the Primate of All Ireland, admitted that he attended meetings in 1975 when two teenage boys signed oaths of silence while testifying in a Church inquiry against Father Brendan Smyth.

The priest was later uncovered as the most notorious child abuser in the Irish Catholic Church, carrying out more than 90 sexual assaults against 40 youngsters in a 20-year period.

Survivors’ groups say the revelations show the cardinal colluded in the cover up of Smyth’s crimes â€" which, they say, allowed the cleric to continue offending - and say he must quit immediately.

Cardinal Brady has refused to go, however, because he said he acted promptly against Smyth but did not have the authority to turn him into the Gardai.

The latest scandal to convulse the Catholic Church comes as allegations emerging in Germany have forced the Vatican to forcefully defend the record of Pope Benedict XVI over his handling of a paedophile priest in the 1980s.

The allegations against Cardinal Brady threaten to bring down the leadership of the Irish Catholic Church in Ireland just months after the devastating Murphy Report into child abuse shamed four bishops who protected the Church by covering up child abuse by priests over four decades.

The scandal resulted in the Pope summoning the Irish bishops to Rome for a meeting in which he denounced the abuse of children as a ‘heinous crime’.

Maeve Lewis, of support group One in Four, said: ‘This latest disclosure removes Cardinal Brady's credibility to provide the leadership that is so vital at this time, leaving him no option but to resign.’

Abuse campaigner Colm O'Gorman said Cardinal Brady ‘is now deeply personally  implicated in the gross failures of the Catholic Church in the management of Smyth and his rampant sexual offending against children.’

The revelations date to a time when Brady was a priest and a part-time secretary to the then Bishop of Kilmore, Francis McKiernan.

Reputation: Pope Benedict XVI is known as a prelate who is tough on clerical child abusers

He attended two meetings where the complainants gave their testimonies and signed undertakings, on oath, to respect the confidentiality of the inquiry.

Afterwards, Father Brady passed reports of the meetings to Bishop McKiernan for his ‘immediate action’.

Cardinal Brady said today that he would not be resigning because he had done nothing wrong.

‘I did act, and act effectively, in that inquiry to produce the grounds for removing Father Smyth from ministry and specifically it was underlined that he was not to hear confessions and that was very important.’

He said the responsibility for Smyth’s behaviour as a priest rested with his religious superior in Kilnacrott and not with him.

The Vatican has spent the last week, meanwhile, trying to stop Pope Benedict from being drawn into a scandal involving the alleged abuse of 170 children in Catholic institutions in his own country.

They include the Regensburg choir school that used to employ his brother, Monsignor Georg Ratzinger, who admitted ‘clipping boys around the ear’ but denies knowledge of sexual offences.

Former choirboy Thomas Mayer has claimed in Der Spiegel, however, that  Monsignor Ratzinger went much further - and would ‘throw chairs at students during choir practice’ if he was not happy with them. 

On Friday the Catholic Church in Germany confirmed that in the 1980s Archbishop  Joseph Ratzinger of Munich â€" the future Pope Benedict â€" had approved therapy for a priest suspected of abuse.

The priest was later transferred to another location, where he was later convicted of abusing minors.

German Catholic authorities have insisted that the transfer was made by Gerhard  Gruber, a minor official, without either the authority or knowledge of  Archbishop Ratzinger.

On Saturday the Pope’s spokesman, Father Federico Lombardi, denounced attempts to unfairly embroil the Pontiff in scandal.

He said: ‘It's rather clear that in the last days there have been those who have tried, with a certain aggressive persistence, in Regensburg and Munich, to look for elements to personally involve the Holy Father in the matter of abuses.

‘For any objective observer, it's clear that these efforts have failed.’

Pope Benedict has long enjoyed a reputation as a prelate who is tough on clerical child abusers, once describing such priests as the ‘filth’ of the Church.

Indeed, Isles, tho he managed to hurt his brothers and sisters during worship, not to say, desecrated the Altar of God , we can only pray that he is forgiven of his misdeeds, and that the mercies and graces of God Above continue to shower for him and his family. For out of the deep and infinite Love of God, He sees and looks past the sins and searches the hearts of all His children.

That , in the end, is the beauty and truth that the Roman Catholic Church teaches all of us.

The irony of the situation tho; it was the Roman Catholic Church who probably baptized Celdran (as he claims to be catholic), it was probably the Catholic Church that performed his marriage mass (if he is married), and it will probably be the Catholic Church to perform his requiem mass when he dies....

Peace to All!

Its not only Roman Catholic religion teaches the beauty and the truth..If you are familiar with the INQUISITION IN EUROPE then you should not be so one sided...The Lord Jesus was not born as a Catholic,he was born as a jew that's why Jews have a special place on his hearts .They are called chosen people of God..

The Inquisition was a Roman Catholic tribunal for discovery and punishment of heresy, which was marked by the severity of questioning and punishment and lack of rights afforded to the accused.

While many people associate the Inquisition with Spain and Portugal, it was actually instituted by Pope Innocent III (1198-1216) in Rome. A later pope, Pope Gregory IX established the Inquisition, in 1233, to combat the heresy of the Abilgenses, a religious sect in France. By 1255, the Inquisition was in full gear throughout Central and Western Europe; although it was never instituted in England or Scandinavia.

Initially a tribunal would open at a location and an edict of grace would be published calling upon those who are conscious of heresy to confess; after a period of grace, the tribunal officers could make accusations. Those accused of heresy were sentenced at an auto de fe, Act of Faith. Clergyman would sit at the proceedings and would deliver the punishments. Punishments included confinement to dungeons, physical abuse and torture. Those who reconciled with the church were still punished and many had their property confiscated, as well as were banished from public life. Those who never confessed were burned at the stake without strangulation; those who did confess were strangled first. During the 16th and 17th centuries, attendance at auto de fe reached as high as the attendance at bullfights.

In the beginning, the Inquisition dealt only with Christian heretics and did not interfere with the affairs of Jews. However, disputes about Maimonides’ books (which addressed the synthesis of Judaism and other cultures) provided a pretext for harassing Jews and, in 1242, the Inquisition condemned the Talmud and burned thousands of volumes. In 1288, the first mass burning of Jews on the stake took place in France.

In 1481 the Inquisition started in Spain and ultimately surpassed the medieval Inquisition, in both scope and intensity. Conversos (Secret Jews) and New Christians were targeted because of their close relations to the Jewish community, many of whom were Jews in all but their name. Fear of Jewish influence led Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand to write a petition to the Pope asking permission to start an Inquisition in Spain. In 1483 Tomas de Torquemada became the inquisitor-general for most of Spain, he set tribunals in many cities. Also heading the Inquisition in Spain were two Dominican monks, Miguel de Morillo and Juan de San Martin.

First, they arrested Conversos and notable figures in Seville; in Seville more than 700 Conversos were burned at the stake and 5,000 repented. Tribunals were also opened in Aragon, Catalonia and Valencia. An Inquisition Tribunal was set up in Ciudad Real, where 100 Conversos were condemned, and it was moved to Toledo in 1485. Between 1486-1492, 25 auto de fes were held in Toledo, 467 people were burned at the stake and others were imprisoned. The Inquisition finally made its way to Barcelona, where it was resisted at first because of the important place of Spanish Conversos in the economy and society.

More than 13,000 Conversos were put on trial during the first 12 years of the Spanish Inquisition. Hoping to eliminate ties between the Jewish community and Conversos, the Jews of Spain were expelled in 1492..

The next phase of the Inquisition began around 1531, when Pope Leo X extended the Inquisition to Portugal. Thousands of Jews came to Portugal after the 1492 expulsion. A Spanish style Inquisition was constituted and tribunals were set up in Lisbon and other cities. Among the Jews who died at the hands of the Inquisition were well-known figures of the period such as Isaac de Castro Tartas, Antonio Serrao de Castro and Antonio Jose da Silva. The Inquisition never stopped in Spain and continued until the late 18th century.

By the second half of the 18th century, the Inquisition abated, due to the spread of enlightened ideas and lack of resources. The last auto de fe in Portugal took place on October 27, 1765. Not until 1808, during the brief reign of Joseph Bonaparte, was the Inquisition abolished in Spain. An estimated 31,912 heretics were burned at the stake, 17,659 were burned in effigy and 291,450 made reconciliations in the Spanish Inquisition. In Portugal, about 40,000 cases were tried, although only 1,800 were burned, the rest made penance.

The Inquisition was not limited to Europe; it also spread to Spanish and Portugese colonies in the New World and Asia. Many Jews and Conversos fled from Portugal and Spain to the New World seeking greater security and economic opportunities. Branches of the Portugese Inquisition were set up in Goa and Brazil. Spanish tribunals and auto de fes were set up in Mexico, the Philippine Islands, Guatemala, Peru, New Granada and the Canary Islands. By the late 18th century, most of these were dissolved.

Ikaduha, I think the matter involved is more on administrative problem. Kaning lapses of not issuing receipt is internal problem ni. Siguro sa management, ara rang ka luag. Usa sa makasulbad ani ang management audit or agreed upon procedures for external auditors to look into the operation of the org and take note of the discrepancies.

Ikatulo, I dont believe that BIR will look into the not-for-profit org operations kay una wa naman na silay income tax. What will the BIR get from doing so? If I were the regional director of BIR (who are usually imposed a colletion quota aho gukdon ang dagko nga company. Hahahahaha.

para nako ang pag apil ug mga ing ana nga organization is not bad as long as kahibaw ka sa tumong ug tuyo sa imong giapilan. kahibaw ka daan unsay imong maani kung mahiapil naka sa grupo aron walay mahay in the end. no free love ang amoa kay we believe that we are brothers and sisters and it's an incest to have a relationship with your own brothers or sisters. maong kung naay masakpan, kadtong di kaagwanta adto moresulta sa medyo harsh nga punishment and will be booted out completely.

ang akong pag-apil ug mga organizations sama sa fraternity, society among others. ako jud una gitan-aw ug gisuta unsay akong maani. ug wala ko nasayop kay wala jud ko nila pasagdi sa diha pako sa school kung manginahanglan ug tabang hangtud na karon bisan lagyo na kaayo mi mga naabtan. diha pud ko nadasig apil ug mga civic works, school activities and religious events kay gi-encourage man mi sa among mga leaders. which is nadala pud na nako until now nga habit. so fulfilling and rewarding ang akong pag-apil or maingon ta nga fruitful ang outcome.

COMMISSION ON AUDIT HAS NO TASK OF MONITORING THE FINANCIAL AUDITING OF THE NON-PROFIT NON-STOCK ORGANIZATION FOR YOUR CLARIFICATION.... It is the BIR and SEC concerning receipts and disbursements of these organizations.  Hey fellowmen issuance of receipts is the biggest campaign of BIR.. Please help our government by inquiring official receipts when you give money to anyone else. Even though it might be in kind or in cash..... 

Im giving money to my mom pangpalit ug sud-an.Next time she ask money from me i will ask for a recibo is that what you mean?

Welcome to the organization you  contact the President and the Treasurer so that you will really know how true this is....Ask for receipt when paying your annual dues.... Convince others to join the club so that you will know whether this is true or not....

correct very very correct scarb... I really want that sharing of yours so that the people in the philippines how taxes are paid out outside our countries.  here sayon2x lang panikas sa mga business operators... If DYRD then is trusting Gerry Pabe handling the money without receipts and vouchers then they are practicing that maybe wihtout clear financial statements... since they are not used to isuance of receipts.  All sponsors should ask for receipts so that the amount they have paid will be reflected on the books of accounts of DYRD... but these donations I don't know... even though we trust them there should be proper documentations for auditing puroses... Mao gyud na dapat... Dili kay masuko tag naay mag audit kay hilabtanon daw............Wherever business is and wherever money is involved there should be auditing for documentaion....the persons handling money should not get angry and dictate whatsoever what the auditor will do......

My understanding on this sentence is that what you mean to say is Gerry and the Manager of DYRD is in connivance of not issuing a receipts to donors of TBN.If that is the case since you call Gerry a PROFESSIONAL BEGGAR IN LOGIC THAT ALSO GOES TO PETER the manager of DYRD.I hope you know what you are talking about.The Dejaresco is one of the most respected family in Tagbilaran.And what you are doing is a defamation of their family name.I advice you to come to your senses and let the proper authorities look into this matter or you will be in a precarious position..

I could send you the link after this
http://tubagbohol.mikeligalig.com/talk-of-the-town/nice-to-see-nice-to-hear-that-things-are-going-in-the-right-direction/ try to link that or search that topic in tubag bohol it is that issue which I printed and gave it to the secretary that made all BOD members surprised because they were made to believe that the TBN Ireland IS THE MONEY OF GERRY PABE GIVEN BY HIS DAUGHTER IN IRELAND.... The General Manager called up the anchorman but he never appeared and it made the General Manager to arrange a meeting wherein mr Gerry Pabe will be present.  But until now it is still a problem hanging around.....

So The General manager trusted Jerry after all because there was no follow up on The case. And if he is as bad as what you want people to believe he is then why is it that he is still the anchorman of TBN until now. Do you think the manager will let Jerry handle the program if he think Jerry is guilty of the accusation. It means the big boss is still trusting him to do a good job.Our law in the Philippine is simple.Anybody who is accused of crimes is considered innocent until proven guilty.So there it is.Prove it in the court of law.Not here in TB .

Well all i can say now is i have the right to remain silent ,what i say might be used against me.I am still waiting what the judges would say. Guilty or not? hehehe!

It is better to investigate rather than to tolerate because it will be done by many taking advantage of the generous people.  This is what citizens should watch  THE PROFESSIONAL  BEGGARS!!!!!!!

That is a heavy accusation without proper evidence..it could boomerang into you..I rather wait for the outcome of the investigation before saying anything like that..just play safe you know.

This is a long time investigation...takes a lot of time and effort for just a few thousand pesos..well we will wait and see what happen...

I don't think they will go to jail for that reason..

in my opinion helping TBN is a choice, and if jellybean is hanging around in Bohol doing other community work, then it is worth applauding. She is a remarkable lady, and if ever she is " attacking" and it pains you that means there is a sore, right?

I aggre with you hope Why not love one another and live in peace and harmony.

.God is everywhere. You don't have to be a Catholics to go to heaven. The Catholics religion  in Europe or even in Vatican is rocked with scandals.Phedophile priest,the use of church money for thier own pleasure. Like gambling and women. Here in Ireland the land of Saints sad to say very few people go to church on Sundays.

I will wait for the results of the investigating team. I am sure justice will prevail.

Guapo, aron dili ka kapoyan, ayaw nalang basaha

Mao bitaw,ako lang gi tan-aw.hehehe.

Dili ko pili-an ug pagka-on, ug usab dili ko pili-an ug restaurant...Ang importante para nako nga "MAGPA-UTANG" ang tag-iya

Naa pa kaha magpautang karon..Utang lipay lipay bayad likay likay..hehe.

If they really want to help those unfortunate people,getting a receipts for the money you give is not that important. It's a matter of trust to TBN.Wala may pugsanay ug mohatag ba ka o dili.

I can attest unsa ka lamian ning lugara... duol ra sa ICM. Kanang gikan ka moliko from the City Hall (to ICM), naa sa tuo sa karsada. Haskang daghanang tawo ma udto tungod sa kalami sa pagkaon... gawas sa kadaghan sa variety sa ilang pagkaon. Sige ko kuhag pagkaon diha "to go" pero adto nako banatan sa balay sa Cabawan aron maka patuyang bwahahaha!!! 

I was there two times,The food was great and the price was cheap.What i hate was the flies so many of them.

Here in Ireland we are discouraged to use plastic bags by imposing a 20 cents payment for a small plastic bag. So every time i went for grocery i bring my own reusable bag.

maayo bitaw ni nga ihunong kay makadaot sa kalikasan..

sorry we don't understand french could you translate it to English?

ha ha ha!!

Maybe it's about time we armed ourselves to protect from bad elements.

I love to watch car show like this the more unique thier shape the more interesting to me.
