Duterte Asks Where God Is


Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is asking where God is amid the crimes and killings in the country and in the world.

Speaking before the MalacaƱang Press Corps Monday at the palace, Duterte said: “My God, where are you? I believe in God but it is my perpetual question to Him: where were you when we needed you?”

Duterte made this statement after he reiterated his stand on the reimposition of death penalty, as he pointed out that it didn’t worked out because the government didn’t imposed it for two reasons.

“Hindi tumalab yung death penalty noon kasi hindi in-impose. One, because of the Catholic church. Second, the bleeding hearts, because only God can kill. Ang problema niyan, I ask you, what if there is no God?” he said.

He asked where God is if a child gets raped. “So where is now God when a one year old baby, 18-months-old baby is taken from the mother's arms brought under a jeep and raped and killed. So where is God?” he said.

Furthermore, he mentioned that women and children were killed due to the bombings in Syria.

He added that women were also raped and killed there if they refused to have sex with members of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS).

He said: “In Syria, women, women and children, and women who do not want to have sex with the ISIS, they're burned. So where is God?”

“It's not enough to say that at the end of the world, he will judge the living and the dead. What would be the purpose of all of that if the heartaches, sorrows and agony have already been inflicted in this world,” Duterte added.

Earlier, Duterte also cursed Pope Francis during the latter’s visit in Manila in January last year.

He slammed the pope for causing heavy traffic, though, he already asked for an apology for the incident.
