Marcos Burial Exhumation: Solicitor General Calida Knows Christianity More Than Priests And Nuns?

By: Elena Grace Flores
Digging up the remains of Ferdinand Marcos would be “unchristian,” said Solicitor General Jose Calida. He insists that the interment of the deposed strongman at Libingan ng mga Bayani did not violate the Supreme Court ruling on the sensitive issue. Calida, led government lawyers in defending President Duterte’s order authorizing the military funeral stressed that there was no legal impediment to stop the Marcoses from burying their patriarch at Libingan.

Cannot Reverse the Decision Made

The Supreme Court will not allow exhumation which is unChristian, says Calida. Digging out Marcos remains will be against Christianity. Marcos also should not be isolated. If they insist on digging him out, they should also do so to the rest of the soldiers and presidents buried there to be fair.

Executive Action not a Political Question

Duterte’s participation in the Marcos burial is clearly an executive action that the president is entitled to and should not be challenged with a political question because it will be a rebellion to do so.

Bongbong Marcos is likely the Target

It is very clear that the Marcos burial is again used to discredit Bongbong Marcos to assume the Vice Presidency then the Presidency later on – but by the looks of what’s happening now, it seems that there’s no stopping Bongbong Marcos. Circumstances just favor him strongly – making his transition to office as clear as the running water in the rivers during the Marcos era.

Resistance Noted but they are short with Numbers

It has been observed that rallies and protests are happening one after the other – but it seems like they are the same people changing clothes. They are definitely not great in number. Perhaps, they are waiting for the Marcos Camp’s response?
