Looking at Sex through the Lenses of Proverbs 5
By Ptr. Philemon Tie
(UEC-Balintawak)

As I pen these words, the sex scandal of Hayden Kho and Katrina Halili has escalated to the heights of its popularity in the Philippines; both have just been subpoenaed to appear before the court. Though this breach of moral etiquette is worth addressing and it should be addressed with, another more deadly and newsworthy issue, the AH1N1 virus, is eclipsed by the sheer scope of the sex scandal.

Every time I go home from work I always have a choice whether to drive along EDSA or take the back streets to avoid the traffic. Regardless of my choice, both lead me back to my home. Sometimes I would regret choosing choice A though and wished I took the other road and vice versa. What do I expect?! Traffic is unpredictable here in Manila. Sometimes my travel is smooth and enjoyable, other times it’s rough and trying. Sometimes I reach my destination in half the time, other times it takes twice as long.

The slender elves drew their bows to let loose a volley of arrows on the ravenous orcs quickly approaching their base camp. Nearby, a wizard ally begins his incantation to summon a spell of protection for soldiers about to engage in battle. An undead army of rotting flesh marches right behind the orc battalion. Blood is about to be shed and lives will be lost in abundance within minutes.
