Prayer Before Meal Time in Catholic Homes in the Philippines

Listen to this childish prayer before meal said by millions in Catholic homes in the Philippines: "Bless us, Oh Lord, and these thy gifts which we are about to receive from thy bounty, through Christ, Our Lord. Amen."

And to think that Millions of Filipinos are still praying and hoping for the 2nd Coming of Christ to save them away from poverty and insanity. No, there is no thanks for the cook who cooked the food. No thanks for the maid who washed and prepared the dishes set on the table. No thanks for the fishermen who caught the fish, the shrimps, and crabs cooked on the table. No thanks for the farmers who planted the rice and raised the chickens, pigs, and cows, and vegetables set on the table. No thanks for those who marketed the food in the market and those who sold such food items in the market. As a matter of cruelty and stupidity in these Catholic homes, the millions of employees more referred to as maids, cooks, laundry woman, drivers, gardeners, etc are not even enrolled with the Social Security system for their benefits during old age, retirement years! Indeed, why should this be a worry of the Catholic employers of domestic employees since we are all told to believe that God will provide for them! If not in this world; in the next world after death! Do you people see now just how sick we are as the Sick Man of Asia!... Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#
