Protestants? Simple... the arrival of the Americans... since Spain cannot anymore dictate the choice of religion of the people...

So our religions are imposed by foreigners. If a superior foreign force were to occupy the Philippines again and demand we worship... SQUIDS for example eventually people will abandon what they believe in and start worshiping SQUIDS. Only in rare sets of people do you see them stick to there religious beliefs even if it means they will die.

St Lorenzo Ruiz is one example of someone dying for one's beliefs. Si Lapu-Lapu also killed to protect his way of life.

YUP. Though that is before (heck that was hundreds of years ago). For today, it is up to you if you want to worship SQUIDS when someone invades us. :bwahaha:

Btw, Americans didn't coerce Filipinos to Protestantism. If they did, we wouldn't be predominantly Catholic right now.

Right now you can a wide variety of choices... from the traditional Roman Catholic to the more controversial Ang Dating Daan...

Sabi na nga ba there's something evil with the teletubbies nung pinapanood ko sila para bang i want to commit a crime. :bwahaha:

Anong squids?

joke lang ba yan? hehehe Yeah kanya kanya na lang kung mag stistick ka pa sa beliefs mo pag nagkataong may baril na sa ulo mo. hehehe Pero sa palagay ko, sa panahong ngayon, that can't be possible anymore.

I was trying to figure out an animal that no one to my knowledge worships or finds offensive. If I were to use cows or elephans a lot of Hindus would be offended. If I were to use pigs or dogs a lot of Muslims will be offended.

People forcing others to convert does still happen. :)

Google for teletubbies and satan. Daming lalabas na result. :)

Horoscopes "predict" nothing but completely random natural events that occur every once in a while in our everyday lives. You know, "today is the perfect day to meet someone new, find love, make significant progress in your career", etc. et al. Or maybe other less positive stuff such as "stay away from a friend who's a [zodiac sign] for [period of time]", "be cautious about spending large amounts of money", "right now might not be the best time to travel"...

If you analyze horoscope predictions carefully, you'd find that most of them are largely random and ambiguous. You'd be surprised at how "accurately" one certain horoscope predicted a certain event (even MULTIPLE events) in a span of time. Personally, I've had a daily newspaper horoscope predict a certain "unforseen fluke event" within +/- 1 day, and "times of financial burden" within +/- 1 week. But I could apply the same "prediction" to hundreds of different events during my short (for now) 16-year life.
