Pacquiao To Knock Out Divorce If He Wins 2022 Presidencial Race

PACQUIAO TO KNOCK OUT DIVORCE – Fighting Senator Manny Pacquiao has always been a person with strong beliefs. And, much like many Filipinos, Pacquiao believes in the sanctity of marriage.

As such, he said that if he wins in the 2022 elections, he won’t ever allow marriage. Similar to his previous statements, Pacquiao based this decision on the bible.

Sabi nga sa Bible what has God joined together, let man not separate. Sacred kasi ‘yang pag-aasawa. Kaya nga may counseling muna bago ka mag-asawa dahil papasok kayo sa isang lifetime commitment is sacred.

But, he said that he won’t stop lawmakers from trying to push for a divorce bill. However, Pacquiao emphasized that he would never support its passage.

Currently, the Philippines, along with the Vatican, are the only countries in the world where divorce isn’t legal. Still, advocates such as Risa Hontiveros had long pushed for the bill to get passed.

Among the many factors for this is the rampant abuse cases in marriages. Meanwhile, most conservatives would argue that issues such as that could be fixed through counseling.

Previously, Senator Hontiveros responded to netizens who called her out for pushing the divorce bill. The netizens said that she wants the divorce to be legal so that she could get one.

She responded by saying that she also passed a shark conservation bill and that it doesn’t mean that she wants to be a shark.

Being a conservative country, the Philippines has deep-rooted beliefs anchored to the bible. However, are these values causing more harm than good? Because of this question, people have long debated that laws shouldn’t be based on belief systems.
