    Jinkee Pacquiao admitted to using birth control pills in article published January

    (SPOT.ph) A few minutes after anti-Reproductive Health (RH) Bill advocate Manny Pacquiao said in a live interview yesterday that he and his wife Jinkee practice abstinence, an article published in January, in which Jinkee admitted to using contraceptive pills, resurfaced, reports GMA News Online.

    On State of the Nation yesterday, the Sarangani congressman compared practicing abstinence to boxing, saying the act requires self-discipline. After the interview, pro-RH Bill group Filipino Free Thinkers Tweeted a link to a Philippine Star story, reports GMA News Online. In the article published January 30, the boxer's wife was quoted as saying, "Hindi pa ako nagpa-tali, pero nagpi-pills ako (ngayon)." ("No ligation, but I do take birth control pills.")

    In the article, Jinkee also said she told her husband that four children are enough. However, the boxing champion said yesterday that they will have another child after Queenie, their youngest.

    According to GMA News Online, the Filipino Free Thinkers also Tweeted, "If @MannyPacquiao makes a statement that Jinkee will no longer use the pill, it will show how anti women the anti #RHBill are."

    Today, Pacquiao will discuss the RH Bill with members of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines (CBCP), reports GMA News Online. "This is his personal way of expressing support and not a celebrity endorsing the position of the Church. It is his personal initiative to be with the Church in the advocacy against RH because of his religious conviction," CBCP Secretary General Juanito Figura said in a statement.

        I agree with you. And the kids who are not well fed and educated will most likely be the future criminals of the country.

        yeah...sabi sa bible magpakarami at SUPILIN. kung hindi kayang supilin, ay bakit magpapakarami? the command to procreate is coalesce with the responsibility to discipline children.

      Pacman is funny. His statement in the live interview is entirely opposite to what his wife revealed. What exactly he needs? PUBLICITY?

      P.S. He should have talk to his wife first before having any interview para hindi sila mukhang tanga sa publiko.

        Pacquiao's credibility....GONE! That's what one gets when playing politics. We are now seeing the other side of Pacman. Using his power now and not his charisma.

      When Pacquiao came out to speak about his stand regarding the RH bill I was really stunned for I expected him to approve of it. By observing them it's really impossible that they are abstaining from sex. Pacquiao's idea of abstinence is a lie. Saying such is very much contradictory to the number of children they now have. After his remarks, I really doubted his stand. You can really tell by the looks on his face that he doesn't know what he was talking about (I hope y'all could see the replay). I believe he just got carried away by the priest's homily and it somewhat placed him in a situation where he can't turn his back anymore. Moreover, at that time Pacquiao probably did not want to frustrate the crowd most especially the priest (but such wavering stand isn't a true attitude of a leader). I also have to say that priest was intelligent for he used that part of the program to entrap Pacquiao and as a result he was really successful in doing so.

      I'm now glad that my hunches are clarified. I really suspected that Pacquiao was really going against his real stand. I would suggest that he needs to carefully study certain topics first before going public about for it will not only humiliate him but it would make the whole nation doubt his credibility even more as a lawmaker and as a leader.

      I totally agree that several priest are misled with regards to their interpretation of the Bible. They are terribly violating the rules of exegesis (correct interpretation of the Bible) in their interpretations. They love to quote Genesis 1:27-28 to those who oppose them but they are clearly in wrong to do this. They should learn to study the real context of these verses. They should not only be looking at verse itself but they need to see the Bible as a whole. No doubt that this was a command of God to Adam and Eve but this command was no longer carried over in the New Testament. It's also important that we look at God's design of marriage in the New Testament to make it even more understandable. Priests will never understand what the marriage relationship is all about, they may be officiating marriages but it doesn't not imply that they understand what it this all about for the reason that they have never experienced being married. I have more to say, I really want to delve deeper in the interpretation of such verses and I really want to tackle issues on ethics but time won't permit me. Hopefully, I'll get back at this asap.

        Agree ako sa 'yo, amigo! Hindi nga talaga siguro alam ni Pacquiao ang anuman sa RH Bill. If he really is an advocate of President P-Noy and most of us Pinoys in the fight against poverty, dapat Pro-RH Bill siya. Magkaiba ang pinakita niyang mensahe sa pagsusuot niya ng yellow gloves which signified his stand sa kahirapan at ang mensahe niya about RH Bill na komokontra pala siya. Mr. Pacquiao, RH Bill o Reproductive Health Bill ay naglalayon na mabawasan ang sobrang pagdami ng populasyon natin sa Pilipinas sa pamamagitan ng pag-educate natin sa mga Pinoy about RESPONSIBLE PARENTHOOD through various forms of contraception which are all lawful and acceptable dahil wala pa naman pang buhay na kinikitil ang mga iyan bagkus ay ito ay mga gamit lamang para maiwasang magkaroon ng anak ang marami na sa ating mga iresponsableng mga magulang- ang katunayan nito ay ang mga nagkalat na mga batang yagit sa ating mga lansangan! Nakakalungkot na isipin bilang isang Katoliko din na kagaya mo na nagpadala na lang sa mga maling paniniwala at diretsahang interpretasyon ng mga makabagong prayle natin- mga Damaso ngang matatawag. Ginawa nilang buong literal ang sinabi ng Diyos sa Biblia na "Go forth and multiply." at wala na lang. Nasaan na ang responsibilidad diyan? Ang simbahan ba ang magpapakain at mangangalaga sa bawat batang isisilang ng mga taong gustong magpakatami na lang even way beyond their means? Dumaan ka lang sa mga squatters area sa buong Kamaynilaan at mapapansin mong sila pa na mga hikahos sa buhay ang may pinakamaraming anak at ang mga bata ay pakalat-kalat lang sa lansangan. Ano ang masasabi mo diyan? Ha? You have just disappointed me, Pacman. Magbasa ka ha!

        Perhaps the reason why the catholic church especially the priests are against the RH Bill, it is because once the bill is passed and made into law, there would be a reduction on child birth. Therefore this would affect the number of babies to be baptized. Hindi na magkapera ang mga pari dahil wala nang magbabayad sa binyagan.
      • insik 1 year 0 months ago
        this is exactly what i thought when i saw the news... pacman was cornered by the priest... either displease the people during the mass with being pro-rh or just go with flow of being anti-rh...
    • Nica  •  1 year 0 months ago
      Bilang babae, hindi porke kaya ng asawang lalaki, gaya ni Pacman na pakainin ang kahit sampung anak ay okay na mag-anak ng sampu. Isipin naman ang epekto ng pag-aanak ng sampu sa kalusugan ng babae. Tingin niyo, anong magiging itsura ni Jinkee pagkatapos ng sampung anak? Baka ipagpalit siya agad ni Pacman?

        If both of the couple married at the age of 18, assuming they are sexually active throughout their married lives, they would have 22 kids, at least, when they reach 40. I can't imagine how pity their lives will be if the couple couldn't find a good job. And even if the they both can seek a good job the health of the wife would surely be very "laspag" after all the deliveries. How much worse if none of them would be able to land a job!

        @Dong, tama si Nica.. at hindi lahat ng babae ay magiging katulad ng kundisyon ng katawan ng biyenan mo. medically proven na malaki ang epekto ng panganganak sa kalusugan ng babae. at isipin mo sana ang pangkalahatan hindi ang biyenan mo lang. please do one thing..."Read More" to "Gain More"
      • DAn 1 year 0 months ago
        It's not about kung kaya ni mister , kaya ni misis, it's about paano niyo pinagpaplanuhan ng tama ang pag-anak na walang risk sa kalusugan ng nanay.. natural family planning ang isinusulong ng simbahan , dahil yan ang tama at hindi ang pills, condoms, vasectomy o IUD na popondohan ng bilyon bilyon ng gobyerno natin..
    • funnyside of me  •  1 year 0 months ago
      China boomed its economy because of its great policy " One child policy". Kasi they realized na mauubos lang ang oras ng mga magulang sa kakaalaga at pagpapalaki ng mga bata. Instead na nagtratrabaho na lang sila. Isipin mo nga naman kung may lima kang anak, papaano mo papalakihin ng maayos kung kasya lang sa pagkain sa araw araw ang kinikita mo?
    • Jay-r  •  1 year 0 months ago
      Agree! eto lang naman point ko eh: ang turo sa amin nung high school, suicide is a mortal sin and the church should not give their blessing to a deceased person if the cause of death is suicide, kasi nga pro-life sila. And their reason why they strongly disagree with the RH Bill is because its anti-life, so sige eto argument natin, kung pro-life nga talaga sila, bakit nila binasbasan ang isang maimpluwensyang heneral na ang kinamatay ay suicide? HIndi ba yon magco-contradict sa prinsipyo nilang Pro-Life sila sa usaping RH Bill?
    • kristine  •  1 year 0 months ago
      Napaka hypocrite naman ni Pacquiao! Sa totoo lang, hindi naman talaga pwedeng hindi mag-contraceptive ang mag-asawa. Eh di sana tatlong dosena na ang anak nila kung ganon.
    • kristine  •  1 year 0 months ago
      Hindi lahat ng tao kasing swerte ni Pacquiao. Sabi nya kasi kung hindi daw nagpadami ng anak ang magulang nya eh hindi raw sya magiging tao, at hindi uunlad ang pamilya nila. Ang case ni Pacquaio, one in a billion. Hindi lahat ng dose-dosena ang anak eh may isang swerte.
    • Paul  •  1 year 0 months ago
      Sana yung mga Abogado ni PACMAN e explain sa kanya kung ano ang nilalaman ng RH Bill para ma-intindihan nya. Alam naman nating lahat yung educational background nya...kaya bago sya mag comment or mag decide sa RH Bill...basahin muna at magtanong para e explain sa kanya kung anong nilalaman nito. Baka naman ang ibig nyang sabihin sa RH Bill ay Representative of the House Bill. LOL
      or Responsible Hospital Bill or RED HORSE Bill.
      LMAO
    • Jerrywhale  •  1 year 0 months ago

    • Leo  •  1 year 0 months ago
      sasagutin ko mga damaso

      korupsyon ugat ng kahirapan

      bakit may korupsyon dahil msa pinoy - dahil kulang ang sapat na kaalaman pumili ng magaling na kandidato/leader

      bakit kulang ang kaalaman - dahil hindi nabi----an ng magandang edukasyon ng magulang

      bakit hindi nabi----an o napag aral ng magulang - dahil sa dami nila iilan lng o isang lng kaya pagtapusin sa high school

      bakit nag anak kasi d naman pla kayang suportahan - dahil hindi na bi----an o kulang sa sapat na kaalaman kung paano planuhin ang pag tataguyod ng isang pamilya

      bakit kulang sa kaalaman magtaguyod ng tamang pamilya - dahil ayaw ng mga damasong padre

      bakit ayaw ng mga padre - dahil konti konti ang populasyon, konti ang magpapabinyag, mag komunyon mag-kumpisal,magpa-pagpakasal at magpapalibing at konti ang papasok sa mga pribadong eskwela ng mga pari

      The Bible in the letter of James to the Christians said, if any of you who lack wisdom, let him ask from God Who will give you liberally... (James 1:5) Now, the RH Bill, the wealthy Congressman, who is also good at heart, sides with the Catholic leadership who does not really know the Bible. Two things: The Catholic leadership does not favor contraceptives even withdrawal - Why? Their Biblical support is Genesis 38:8-10. Please read and study it carefully... Ask the Holy Spirit in humility that He will show you the truth. God sees the heart of anyone who is looking for truth. Nagalit ang Diyos sa ginawa ni Onan at siya ay pinatay... bakit? What is it in spilling the semen in the eyes of God for Onan to be killed? No, it is not in the spilling of the semen itself... it is in the motive of the heart of Onan that is not right before God. When Onan knew that the child to be born will not be his, he decided to spill the semen. He has a responsibility in their culture - it was through Judah that the promised Messiah will come. Onan stood against the plan of God. . . kailangan pang antayin ang youngest son ni Judah para makasiping ni Tamar para di maputol ang linya ni Judah. SO, kaya daw bawal ang contraceptives even withdrawal kasi nagalit ang Diyos sa ginawa ni Onan when he spilled his semen... hindi itinuro ang tama... another connection to this is in the creation. God told Adam and Eve to "go be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it." (Genesis 1:27-28) Ang utos ay hindi lamang magparami ng tao... bawat taong lalabas sa mundo ay dapat matutunan ang kasunod, fill the earth and subdue it... pangalagaan lahat na nilikha ng Diyos upang patuloy na may makain... Lack of wisdom will show that kahit wala ka nang ipakain anak ka pa rin ng anak. With Godly wisdom, magparami ka lang hanggang sa kaya mo lang pakainin at papag-aralin ang iyong mga anak. God said in Hosea 4:6, my people perish because of lack of knowledge..." of the truth of the will and plan of God. Dahil sa katuruang mali, naging mangmang ang tao sa katotohanan ng plano ng Diyos sa tao. Natakot ang mga mangmang na kung gagamit sila ng contraceptives o magwithdrawal magagalit ang Diyos. Kung itinuro ng mga pari ang ibig sabihin ng pagtitiis, pagiging tapat, pagiging matuwid sa harap ng Diyos, at iba pa. . hindi lamang ang RH bill ang nasulosyonan. Ang talagang problema natin ay ito... Hindi natin inilagay ang Diyos sa dapat niyang kala----an. We are a very religious nation. We believe in God but we did not give Him the Kingship and the Lordship that He deserves in our lives. If He is the Lord and King of your life, will you have the strength and audacity to do what you want to do? Will you not do the will of your King? Will you not desire to always find out the will of God in your life? Will you not desire to honor God in all things? We do our religious rituals pero pag labas tayo pa rin ang hari. If you are corrupt and immoral, do you honor your King? The RH bill is just a temporary solution sa poverty problem natin. The permanent solution is WE all must go to God in humility and allow Him to be Lord and King in our lives. Then and only then He will have freedom to show us what is necessary and He will now be free to pour out His blessing to us as a nation. I ask Congressman Pacquiao to study the Bible well and then stand before us as a nation and freely teach what God means in His word - that by God's Word through Cong Pacquiao we will be guided. . . not according to the Catholic Doctrine... BUT according to the pure Word of God.

      support the Rh bill , to move forward our country to poverty,remember china is One child, viet nam is two,Hong kong,Taiwan,Mayanmar, Thailand,Singapore,is Two child policy, because simple reason, more population in more poverty and crime...
    • jennygirl  •  1 year 0 months ago
      alam nyo ba kung ano ang nakakatawa sa lahat ng nan----ayari na to? the hypocrisy revolving around it... if the catholic church is really against this RH bill, diba dapat mas inuuna nila yung mga naglipanang nagbebenta ng mga pampalaglag at pampamenstruate sa MISMONG TABI ng simbahan nila sa quiapo? in short, ABORTION!!! bakit di yun ang unahin nilang ipatanggal? dekada na ang tinatagal nyang mga kalakal ng pampatay ng sanggol sa sinapupunan ng ina dyan sa may simbahan ng quiapo pero parang wala lang sa kanila! hindi ba kaipokritohan yan? samantalang the RH bill is not forcing people to use contraceptives at all... people still has the choice to whether use it or not, and for me it's far more better than abortion, wherein there is already a child inside the womb at saka mo lang ipapatanggal, now that's murder for me... i'd rather be on the side of the RH bill than to encourage murderers...

      Isa, dalawa, nakakatawa
      Tatlo, apat, tila namamayat
      Lima, anim, naging masakitin
      Pito, walo, sakit ng ulo

      We are a poor country and at least to the poor families, the above 70's family planning slogan is reflective of the current ills of the basic nucleus of our society.

      As for congressman Manny Pacquiao, let him do his talking with his fists.

      Just because he is a congressman now does not mean he is worth listening to. We all know he bought his way to congress and he does not posses the necessary tools to be an effective legislator. His twitter posts about "lolong mong panot" is just a display of how childish he is and how unprepared and unfit he is for legislative work.

      Manny Pacquiao's political views should be taken with a grain of salt.

      Were so unlucky that the media is taking him seriously and they never fail to thrust a microphone to his face for useless sound bytes, making this serious business sound comical.

      Let Manny do his talking with his fists. That is where he is good at. But for him to chart our political and economic future, heaven help us. Life is indeed a battle, but to liken life to boxing is awfully simplistic and immature.
