WILL YOU MARRY A NON

WILL YOU MARRY A NON - VIRGIN?

AS I LOOK AROUND, LOOKING FOR SOMETHING TO WRITE, I READ AN ARTICLE THAT CAUGHT MY ATTENTION, IT SAYS, "WILL YOU MARRY A NON-VIRGIN?"

FROM RELIGIOUS PERSPECTIVE WHERE I CAME FROM IT IS TABOO OR FORBIDDEN TO MARRY A NON-VIRGIN THAT IS THE REASON WHY MOST MEMBERS OF DEVOUT CATHOLICS AND REFORMED CHURCHES ARE EX-COMMUNICATED IF CAUGHT HAVING AN AFFAIR WITH SOMEONE PRIOR TO MARRIAGE.

THE CULTURES OF THE CIVILIZED SOCIETY HAS BEEN PRESERVED EVEN IN THIS MODERN TIMES OF OURS. THAT VIRGINITY IS ALWAYS EQUATED WITH GOODNESS AND VIRTUE. THE ACT OF PRESERVING YOURSELF INTACT AND UN-BLEMISH FOR THE ONE YOU MARRY PROVES THAT YOU ARE A PERSON IN GOOD REPUTE AND UPBRINGING.

AS TIME WENT ON CULTURES MELT DOWN, IDEAS ARE CHANGING INTO DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS, SOME BELIEVE IT IS NO LONGER IMPORTANT.

EVERY WEEK COUNCILOR JULIENNE ALYSON RAE V. MEDALLA, A GRADUATE OF A CERTIFIED CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY, FOUNDED BY DEVOUT CATHOLIC MISSIONIORIES THE DE LA SALLE BROTHERS AND HER FATHER FORMER COUNCILOR RAMON " TOTO" MEDALLA SPONSORED A COUNTLESS FREE MASS WEDDING PROGRAM.

DURING MY TIME AS AN OFFICIATING MINISTER, WE WEDDED IF I MAY USE THIS TERM MORE OR LESS SIXTY THOUSAND (60,000) COUPLES.

FILIPINOS, WHO BOAST TO BE THE ONLY CATHOLIC NATION IN ASIA DETERIORATED AND BELIEVE THAT SEXUAL PAST OF THEIR PARTNER IS INCONSEQUENTIAL AND NOT A BIG ISSUE IN THEIR SUPPOSED MARRIAGE.

NOW. TELL ME STRAIGHT FROM MY EYES, WILL YOU MARRY A NON-VIRGIN? AND WHY? AND WHY NOT?

"SALUBONG" - SEMANA SANTA 2019

I WAS RAISED AS ROMAN CATHOLIC BY MY PARENTS. WHEN I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL, I WAS CONVERTED TO BAPTIST. THEN MY JOURNEY AS A BIBLE BELIEVER AND MY CURIOSITY TO KNOW RELIGION BECOMES STRONGER. I FOUND MYSELF STUDYING THE BIBLE IN BETHANY BAPTIST BIBLE COLLEGE IN DIAN ST. MAKATI CITY. THERE, I FINISHED MY BASIC BIBLE COURSE. THEN I PURSUE MY BACHELOR OF THEOLOGY DEGREE IN CENTRAL BIBLE COLLEGE. I ALSO TOOK SPECIAL COURSES IN PRESBYTERIAN THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY WHERE I FINISH MY SPECIAL COURSE IN THEOLOGY. I HEARD ABOUT "SALUBONG" DURING SEMANA SANTA, AND MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, SEEN THIS DURING MY CHILDHOOD BUT MY MEMORIES HAS BEEN ERASED BY SO MANY NEW INPUTS ENTERED TO MY BRAIN. FROM A REFORMED CATHOLIC VIEW AND FROM WHAT I WITNESSED THIS MORNING, LET ME TELL YOU THE STORY OF THE "SALUBONG". THE WHOLE CHRISTIANITY WAS SADDENED BY THE NEWS OVER THE DEATH OF JESUS CHRIST THROUGH CRUCIFIXION MUCH MORE MARY THE MOTHER OF JESUS BEAR THE PAIN.

WHAT HAS BEEN BROKEN IS BROKEN

"Nothing is ever truly broken". That is the philosophy behind the ancient Japanese Arts of Kintsugi, which repairs smashed pottery by using beautiful seams of gold. This practice started way, way back in the 15th Century when Japanese Military Commander Ashikaga Yoshimasa accidentally broke one of his favorite Chinese tea pot. (picture taken from BBC Arts Get Creative) Because he loves so much the tea pot, Commander Yoshimasa went to repair shop to get it fixed.But he was dismay over the result. From then on, Japanese Craftsmen come up with more pleasing method of repair. As you can see it from the illustration above and because of the treatment and application being applied no trace of evidence that it was formerly broken into pieces. I wish that this method of fixing broken teapots either made of glass or ceramic can also be applied in our relationship once it was broken into pieces.
