ano meron dun?

Hmm... Well, let us set first the assumptions of our argument. Firstly, let us assume that we shall look on this on a purely religious stand

If that were the case, then the only sin he would h have committed was to have sex before marriage

But, considering the legal standards of his country, he wouldn't even be allowed to get married

nandidiri parin ako dun hanggang ngaun

ahh the 13 yr old dad ok

Our religion in itself does not state an age limit in the sacrament of holy matrimony; only the law states that

Perhaps... if the law would have allowed him to, he would have married the wife, then had the child, making what he did perfectly moral

speaking of religion, he might not have sinned because of innocence

- that's a might...

A big "mig

kadiri parin..

A big *might* indeed. But due to his current factors, we could not truly say whether what he did was moral or immoral

It is indeed moral for him to accept his obligation as a father. I guess that consolidates his standpoint on his idea of reproduction

i really don't believe that they don't know a thing before they did the thing

ofcourse we cant... who are we to judge him. we can only speculate

But I believe that since he is indeed willing to take responsibility as the child's father, then that gives him all the right to have a chil

mistform: me too... I blame sex-education and the british society for this, but not entirely

jpmaglutac: he certainly made the right choice of not aborting the child... that's another problem

The fact that you "blame" someone means that there was some sort of injustice committed. I ask you, what injustice was there?

altho, when asked how he could support the child financially, he answered, "what's financially?"

One cannot blame another for ignorance Although, of course it would not be practical to do what he did, I see nothing immoral in it

jpmaglutac: not injustice but the society, their gov in particular, made a wrong move on destroying their innocence

I also think it wasn't immoral, at least I want to believe it isn't

EXACTLY! If he wants to have a child, then he should have the freedom to have a child

i agree but i hope he can live up to his wants by being a responsible parent...

I hope so too

how can he bring up the baby? did he really think of that when he committed the act?

Perhaps he did, perhaps he didn't. Perhaps he thought he wanted a baby, but didn't think of how hard it would be to have one

thats also posible

i hope the phil will never be like britain now

what we can do perhaps is to pray for him...
