On liberal opportunism and the “purity” smear
On liberal opportunism and the “purity” smear
Accusing leftists and activists of demanding a "useless politics of purity" is a classic liberal defense mechanism designed to shift the burden of moral failure onto the critic.

Two days apart this week, two important commemorations took place. One evoked a resounding plea for long-delayed justice; the other, for the resumption of peace negotiations to attain just and lasting peace. In each case, concerned groups and advocates urged President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to act positively.

Balik-Tanaw | Of treasures and salvation: How costly is to aspire for God’s kingdom?
In the midst of the onslaught of Typhoon Egay (Doksuri) that hit tremendously the northern provinces of the Philippines, I saw this FB post from a high school batchmate. As I continue to browse the social media, she posted another another one, lamenting and telling to God to hug her as she feels weak. Apparently, the 3 cows she owned have been missing as the typhoon begun to strike our home province Abra. My friend is currently in Hong Kong, serving as a domestic worker for the past several years.
Balik-Tanaw | Sixteenth Sunday in ordinary time
Growing up in the land, hearing stories of animals, trees, spirit beings, and people from my grandmother have been a huge part of my childhood. Though they may be somewhat far from my reality at that time, they for sure spoke of a reality at a certain period that has been passed down through generations. I could still remember my grandmother’s silky, long, silver hair that smelled like coconut oil, her sagging skin that provided me such comfort, and her voice that is filled with wisdom accumulated through the years.
Balik-Tanaw | The regenerative word of God
Second Isaiah created a synthesis: uniting into one, Israelites beliefs in creation, in the Divine government of history, and Divine will to save. Yahweh is creator. Even the greatest powers are insignificant before him. We know how Israel was conquered by world powers, then transferred from its own soil to another. Within this reality, Second Isaiah’s concept of God evolved.

Kung sinusubaybayan mo ang balita, alam mong humihingi ang Light Rail Transit Authority (LRTA) sa gobyerno ng humigit-kumulang P430 milyon. Dahil sa napakalaking halaga nito, alam ko na ang nasa isip mo: “Kaninong bulsa na naman kaya ang tataba dahil dito?”
Para sa estudyante ng UP CMC
Sa gitna ng namuong galit sa maraming tao (malamang kasama ka rito), may dalawang bagay na baka nakaligtaan: (1) Nangyari ang GC hindi kamakailan lang kundi ilang taon na ang nakalipas; at (2) Bago ikinalat ang GC sa social media, matingkad ang usapin ng hazing hindi sa UP kundi sa Philippine Military Academy (PMA). Kaya may dalawang pundamental na tanong sa puntong ito: (1) Kung ang GC ay nangyari noon pa, posible kayang nagbago na ang dating hindi katanggap-tanggap na perspektiba ng mga sangkot sa isyu? (2) Sa kasalukuyan, sino ang makikinabang kung ang pampublikong atensyon sa isyu ng hazing ay mapupunta hindi sa PMA kundi sa UP?
Pesteng trapiko
Sang-ayon ako sa suhestyong hayaan ang mga opisyal ng gobyerno, lalo na ang mga miyembro ng Gabinete, na gumamit ng pampublikong transportasyon sa pagpasok sa trabaho. Mainam na maranasan nila ang makipagsiksikan, makipagbalyahan at makipagtulakan para lang makasakay. At kung sakaling may pila sa terminal, sana nama’y maarawan o maulanan din sila sa paghihintay sa susunod na traysikel o dyip.
