If the Philippines is a Catholic nation, or otherwise religious, how can it be morally bankrupt? It has a Constitution and laws. It has a broad educational system that teaches honesty and doing right things.
Yet the nation is morally bankrupt. Corrupt, incompetent, and fake in the sense that it persecutes the innocent, denies accountability for anything wrong, and trolls ‘yellow’s or ‘reds’ while considering their objections to be sedition or terror.
morally bankrupt? I’m being shallow here, so pardon po, sir admin giancarlo.
young women marrying older men? the 1st thing that hit me is the late Anna Nicole Smith, a US beauty who married a terribly old and feeble man but uber rich and close to death. when the man died, Anna inherited millions but did not get to enjoy her inheritance and died. Anna’s daughter got the bulk of the money, Anna’s son had died long before then.
now back to philippines, in the south there are child brides some not yet teenager and already married to older men. but I prefer to look the other way at mommy Dionesia, pacman’s mom. she has toy boys younger than her son, and happier with her lot she is.
