There’s a legal controversy in Baguio, and it involves the separation of Church and State as mandated by the Constitution.

Under Section 29 (2), Article VI of the Constitution, β€œno public money or property shall be appropriated, applied, paid, or employed, directly or indirectly, for the use, benefit, or support of any sect, church, denomination, sectarian institution, or system of religion, or of any priest, preacher, minister, or other religious teacher, or dignitary as such….”

Last month, the Baguio-Benguet Ecumenical Group (BBEG) revealed that the Baguio City government headed by Mayor Benjamin Magalong will pay P4 million in public funds for a so-called leadership and values training course being given to city government employees by the Way to Happiness Philippines Foundation Inc.

The BBEG asserts that the foundation has very close ties to the late L. Ron Hubbard, the founder of Scientology, a controversial religion established in the United States in the 1950s.

[SNIP]

The BBEG told the Baguio City Council that employing a religious organization like the Way to Happiness Philippines Foundation Inc. to do what is essentially government work violates the constitutionally mandated separation of Church and State cited above.

One foundation official claims its members are not Scientologists, and are volunteers from various faiths who use Hubbard’s book as an inspiration for a moral, value-centered lifestyle.

Mayor Magalong sided with the foundation. Although he opined that the training provided by the foundation is not anchored on religion, he did not explain the reason for his statement.

My sister is really interested in the history of the mob/mafia in NYC. I see tours offered on the subject around the city. Are they any good?

There are sites (like this or this) that offer tours around the city regarding historical NYC gangsters. They really look interesting, but I'm wondering if they are worth the money.

What is the etymology of the word Cubao, as in the commercial area in Quezon City, Philippines?

Etymologies for Philippine placenames are really tough. So far I’ve only found folk etymologies and ones claiming it’s from either the word β€œCubado” or β€œCarabao” and I’m unsure of the correctness of these.

Thank you!
