NAGA CITY—Bishop Gilbert Garcera of the Diocese of Daet, the capital of Camarines Norte, believes overpopulation has been advantageous to the Philippines and to the world because it has increased the number of overseas workers and migrants who could send remittances back home while taking care of ageing people abroad and spreading the Christian faith.

Contrary to the aims of the reproductive health (RH) bill, Garcera said the huge Philippine population could be part of “God’s plan for Filipinos to be caregivers to ageing nations whose populations had become stagnant.”

He also said many Filipino women would make “good wives” for foreigners in countries that have low population growth...."

Mas maraming mayaman ang nagiging-atheist dahil wala na sila karaniwang kailangan hilingin sa Diyos, kaya sa mga bansang mayaman maraming atheist.

Kabaligtaran naman sa mahihirap na bansa, sa kawalang pag-asa ng mahihirap sa Diyos na lang sila nakakahingi ng tulong.

Kung totoong maka-Diyos ang isang simbahan uubusin nito ang kanyang material na yaman para itulong sa mga may mahigpit na pangangailangan. Pero sa ibat-ibang sekta alin sa kanila ang gumagawa nito? Karamihan sa kanila ay nagpapayaman, mga priest/minister nila maginhawa, iba'y marangya, ang pamumuhay habang maraming paslit sa kalye ang umaasa na lang sa solvent para hindi maramdaman ang gutom.
