1. The Philippines violates the preamble of the constitution: "We, the sovereign Filipino
people, imploring the aid of Almighty God, in order to build a just and humane
society, and establish a Government that shall embody our ideals and aspirations,
promote the common good, conserve and develop our patrimony, and secure to
ourselves and our posterity, the blessings of independence and democracy under the
rule of law and a regime of truth, justice, freedom, love, equality, and peace, do ordain
and promulgate this Constitution."
it violates the principle of equality by putting the religion of Islam above other religions.
2. (Article II, Section 6): The separation of Church and State shall be inviolable.
1. The government of the Philippines must never violate the "separation of church and
state".
3. (Article III, Section 5): No law shall be made respecting an establishment of religion, or
prohibiting the free exercise thereof. The free exercise and enjoyment of religious
profession and worship, without discrimination or preference, shall forever be
allowed. No religious test shall be required for the exercise of civil or political rights.
0. "No law shall be made respecting an establishment of religion": This means that
laws must never be created to favor, uphold, honor, or respect any religion.
The Philippines violated this section by creating Republic Act No.
6734 ARMM (Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao). This region is reserved
specifically for Muslims(Moros) the followers of the religion of Islam. The
republic act 6734 "RESPECTS" the religion of Islam.
1. "or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.": We have the freedom of religion. the
government must respect that.
4. Article 6, section 29 (2): states "No public money or property shall be appropriated,
applied, paid, or employed, directly or indirectly, for the use, benefit, or support of
any sect, church, denomination, sectarian institution, or system of religion.."
0. No law must be created that would finance a religion or financially benefit only the
specific followers of certain religions. i.e. Must not financially benefit Christians,
Muslims or any followers of any religion.
The government of the Philippines created Republic Act No.9997, the NCMF. A
commission with a yearly governmental budget of over 500 million pesos to
serve only Muslims. Public money and property has been and is appropriated
for the Muslims(Moros), the followers of the religion of Islam.
The Philippine government violates all 4 points. The Philippine government financially supports the
religion of Islam via the NCMF, the ARMMand now the Bangsamoro.
The teaching of religious classes in public schools is permitted with the written consent of the parent
so long as provided there is no cost to the government. Religious organizations register with the
Securities and Exchange Commission to apply for tax exemption. Registered religions and non-profit
organizations are tax exempt but only with the concurrence of a majority of all the Members of the
Congress.
Note: The developer of this site (Frank Maletsky), is appealing to all of academia, political
leaders, and other religious leaders to say something about this. Whether you are for this
violation or against it. Say something. Why does the Philippines favor one religion (ISLAM)
over the rest?
n 1987 the constitution of The Philippines created the Separation of Church and State
1. In 1987 Executive Order No. 122-A, created the Office of Muslim Affairs (OMA). This office
served only the Muslim people and not the non-muslims. This office answered only to the
President of the Philippines.
2. In August 1, 1989 just two years later, The Philippines through Republic Act No. 6734
otherwise known as the Organic Act created the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao or
ARMM. Non-Muslims are not allowed to participate in the ARMM government. Then referred
to Mindanao as Muslim Mindanao
3. In 2010 the "National Commission on Muslim Filipinos" replaced the "Office of Muslim
Affairs". This office still falls under the same umbrella and that is, it reports only to the
President of the Philippines.
Non-Muslims can't participate in this commission. Non-Muslims can't benefit from this
commission and this commission will not serve non-muslims. This commission is funded
by the government and answers only to the President of the Philippines.
Every year the Philippine government provides a budget (billions of pesos) for both the ARMM
and the NCMF. Both of these entities are Muslim Entities. Both religious entities under the
religion of Islam (Muslim).
So what does this do to Article 2 section 6 which states: The separation of Church and State
shall be inviolable.?
Inequality in how The Philippine government looks at Religion
The Philippines claims separation of church and state. Meaning not one centavo will go to the
support of any religion from the tax payers money or no law will be created respecting an
establishment of religion. Yet the Philippines administration and legislature turns around and
violates the constitution for the sake of ISLAM.
1. There is the NCMF (National Commision on Muslim Filipinos) financed by the government.
The Muslims belong to the religion of Islam.
The government has no existing program to support Iglesia ni Cristo, Aglipayans,
Seventh day Adventists, Catholics or any other religion because the government says
that it is against the constitution and that it violates the "separation of church and state".
But it is OK to financially support the Muslims.
The government has the National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP) for the
support of all the indigenous people of the Philippines. Doesn't it bother the government
officials that a religion is getting more money than the indigenous people?
National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP) has P35.46 million as of 2016.
The National Commission on Muslim Filipinos has P469.67 million in 2016.
2. Polygamy in the Philippines was illegal for all citizens. But on February 4, 1977, The
Philippines created Presidential Decree 1083 to legalize POLYGAMY for Muslims only.
There you have it. Polygamy is illegal for non-muslims but legal for Muslims.
he 1987 Constitution of the Philippines declares: The separation of
Church and State shall be inviolable. (Article II, Section 6), and, No law
shall be made respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting
the free exercise thereof.
