The debate over the proposed Reproductive Health Bill is raging in Congress. The most vocal opposition to the RH bill comes from the Catholic Church. It has been using the pulpit and has rallied church organizations to block the passage of the bill. On the other side is the Aquino government, which is pushing for the RH bill because of pressure from international agencies such as the IMF-WB, the UN, the US among others, to institute population control measures.
