Isabela Rep. Rodolfo Albano III in 2014 filed House Bill No. 04477 (Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Act), which aims to legalize the use of marijuana for medical purposes.

In 2015, the head of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) said the Church supports the use of prohibited drugs and narcotics, such as marijuana, for the terminally ill.

Doctors, on the other hand, are opposing the bill, adding that experts have yet to confirm the efficacy of medical marijuana.

Possession of at least 10 grams of marijuana resin or marijuana resin oil, or at least 500 grams of marijuana is punishable with life imprisonment and a fine ranging from P500,000 to P10 million, as stipulated in the Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.

Duterte Called The Catholic Church The Most Hypocritical Institution!

There was a controversy before the elections where the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) released a pastoral letter saying that people should not elect him as the president. 

But now that Duterte won the elections with 6.2 million lead over the Liberal Party standard bearer Mar Roxas, he described his win as a 'public referendum'. 

"They campaigned against me, everybody was saying 'Do not vote for Duterte.' Fine. I said, let this election be a referendum between me and the Catholic Church... Sabi ko, this will be a referendum kung sinong tama sa atin. Look, were you able to stop me? Iilan lang kayong mga obispo diyan,"he said. 

On May 1, the CBCP reminded the people to never elect a man who is 'morally reprehensible' and the one who goes against the right of other and the teachings of the Church. 

This is because of the issue of him womanizing as well as for the public death squad. 

"I will lecture until June 29 the sins of the Catholic Church, and whether or not you are still relevant. Alam mo, the most hypocritical institution is the Catholic Church," this is the strong message of Duterte.

CONTROVERSIAL: A Mother Posted a Naked Photo Online! Shocking Reason!

The love that a mother can give is priceless and unconditional. Sometimes, sons and daughters tend to forget about their moms, but her love for her children remains the same. There are also moments wherein mothers are misinterpreted and misunderstood, but it doesn't change the fact that they live by their role until death.

An example of a big misunderstanding with a mom's love is Heather Whitten's Facebook post. She actually posted a photo of her husband and son, both naked while they were in the shower. Apparently, this photo earned several negative comments from netizens. Online users shared how disgusting the photo is without them knowing the real reason why it was posted. Facebook then deleted the post, but Heather posted it again with a very heartbreaking caption.

Here is the controversial photo with its caption:

We have different ways to see the beauty of several things, but sometimes, the most unacceptable way can show us the real meaning of life. There are moments wherein we learn a valuable lesson from a crazy experience and an unpleasant journey. Self expression is the same. A painting has several meanings and interpretations. So, it's better to be careful every time we relay our points of view. :)
