The Existence of Evil in the Philippines

There is no explanation for evil. It must be looked upon as a necessary part of the order of the universe. To ignore it is childish, to bewail it senseless. . . W. Somerset Maugham. . . My dear Somerset Maugham, I entirely agree with you; except that in the Philippines - the only Catholic country in Asia - it is highest form of stupidity, if not the lowest form of insanity if we Filipinos only continue to believe and to have faith in the existence of evil as the necessary part of the order of the universe that makes us famous as the Sick Man on this earth gifted with a Free Will by God in heaven. . .
