Church should conduct voters education first

Statement of Senator Recto on Brother Mike Velardes proposal that the Church endorse candidates: Its something for the Church hierarchy to decide on. But at the very least, the Church should conduct voters education and raise citizen awareness on the need for honest election. It can also issue guidelines for the enlightenment of its flock so they can make an informed choice come election day. I believe that whatever our faith is, we should not vote for a person solely based on his religion, but to appraise a person in his totality, the reason why I am rooting for Sultan Kiram.
