                    [Summary] => 

I have just finished reading a book about Pope Benedict XVI. I prefer not to mention the title or the author.

 Last Wednesday, March 17, ABS-CBN’s Atom Araullo reported that a mayor in Bustos, Bulacan was attempting to run for a fourth term, despite the three-term limit on all elected officials.

However, this is not meant to articulate an exclusively Christian behavior, since there's no such thing, given our complex human condition.

I'm sure many of us will have our ideas and opinions on how this Christian behavior should be, all of them with their valid points. My hope, in fact, is that everyone starts to express his views in this matter in public.

And with an open mind, most people can take the opinions of others. But sometimes there are opinions that are too appalling they go against the sensibilities of most people.

The Bible is full of such warnings. Now, sadly, we seem oblivious to these warnings. I get the impression many feel these warnings have become obsolete or irrelevant.
