The leadership of the Church in the Philippines has historically exercised a powerful influence
on politics and social life. The country is at least 80% Catholic and there is a deeply ingrained
cultural deference for clergy and religious. Previous attempts in the last 14 years to pass a
reproductive health law have failed because of the opposition of Catholic bishops. Thus the
recent passage of the ‘Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Act of 2012’ (R.A.
10354) was viewed by some Filipinos as a stunning failure for the Church and a sign of its
diminished influence on Philippine society.
This article proposes that the Church’s engagement in the reproductive health bill (RH Bill)
debate and the manner of its discourse undermined its own campaign to block the law.1 The first
part of the article gives a historical overview of the Church’s opposition to government family

third part will examine factors that shaped the Church’s attitude and responses to the RH Bill.
The fourth part will examine the effects of the debate on the Church’s unity, moral authority,
and role in Philippine society. The fifth part will draw lessons for the Church and will explore
paths that the Church community can take in response to the challenges arising from the law’s
implementation.
