Church to play passive role in opposing GMA-bishop By Aries C. Rufo, abs-cbnnews.com/Newsbreak | 12/02/20083:11 PM Excerpts: Caloocan bishop Deogracias Iniguez said the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines should not be expected to be in the forefront of any uprising since such is the primary duty of the lay people. "I don't think the CBCP will say: Let us now go to the streets and overthrow this government. I don't think the CBCP is in position to say that because that is a decision of the populace, the decision of the Filipino people," Iniguez said. Iniguez was responding to a question on the public waiting for a concrete signal from the Church before they pour into the streets. "That's the problem; they are waiting for the wrong thing." Iniguez said the public should take the cue from the pastoral statement the CBCP issued earlier where they declared that the Arroyo government is suffering from "moral bankruptcy." In that pastoral statement, Iniguez said the CBCP urged that "we should reflect together so that we can make a decision together and take proper action." http://www.abscbnnews.com/nation/12/02/08/church-play-passive-role-opposing-gma%E2%80%94bishop http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Thaiexp2.JPG
