The vast majority of Pinoys are, indeed,a hard working people. That is, of course, if hard working means exactly the same thing as hard praying. Indeed, we Pinoys attach more reliability to praying than we appreciate the miracles of hard thinking while hard working.
After all, in our schools, colleges, and universities - we were taught to believe and to never lose faith with the Word of God written in the holy bible such as: "Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you; for everyone that asketh, receiveth' and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened."
Sadly, however, as the only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century, the vast majority of poor Pinoys are still waiting and waiting for the results of their hard prayers said daily, nightly, weekly, monthly, and yearly!
In the meantime, we consume without producing. We are spending without earning. We are praying without working. What a waste of precious time as a people. What a waste of precious energy as a nation. We poor Pinoys are still stuck with our silly prayers behind a silly theology; when we should already be growing as a people with science and developing as a nation with technology. Poch Suzara
