MANUNGOD SA SARONG BUKAS NA SURAT
(Translation at the bottom for non-Bicolanos)
Sa lenguaheng Albay-Bikol ako minasurat sa rason na ang isyu invuelto mga Bikolnon, lalo na sarong kahimanwa, sarong taga Albay (ciudad kan Tabaco) an sarong parte.
Dai ko hunaon na sa sarong pading katoliko maghali an kunstekto kan surat. Maski na kaidto pa harayo an boot asin pag tubod ko sa mga Hesweta ta mga elitista, na sa sarong banda garo baga pati an Kagurangnan pagsadiri ninda.
Saro man akong produkto ki duwang eskwelahan na pinapamahalaan nin mga reliyoso. Pero dawa dai ko nahiling duman an ugaling ini, dai ako nag isip man lamang na mag padi sa congregasyon ninda. Kan ako kuta inaapod mag serbi, sarong saday na kumunidad nin mga misyonero an harani sa boot ko. (Salamat ta na honra an mawot ko na bako na sana ako an apudon nin Kagurangnan.)
Nabasa ko, siring man an bako lamang seguro an nagkakapirang tawo, an pag kundinar sa sarong kamawotan kun sisay an iboboto bilang Presidente ni Ms. Aya Medel., mientras na maski na ngani an Dios respitado an rugaring na boot o pinag aapod na free will saka intelehencia nin lambang tawo.
Huli sa nasabing surat, hiling ta na sarong tumbok kan mga nag kumentaryo pabor sa Padi kun ano si Miss Aya kaidto. Sabi daa dating bold star, maski na dai pa nahaloy na nabaritaan ko sa rason na ako mapili sa mga pelikula.
Kun arog kaiyan halion ta na sa listahan nin mga Santo sina San Agustin saka si Sta Ma. Magdalena. Mga Santong dating nalagalag sa buhay, maski na ngani dai nasasabi kun ano talaga si Ma. Magdalena.
Sarong dakulang Grasya hali sa Mahal na Dios asin satong ipagpasalamat na dakul pa man an solido an pundasyon nin pag tubod sa tunay na simbahan, na habo ipag ribay si Kristo sa nagkakapirang Hudas kaya yaon man giraray sa simbahang katoliko. Sabi ngani kan dati kong kaklase na seminarista, diskuntentado siya pero siya nabuhay na Katoliko kaya magagadan man na Katoliko Romano.
Dai ko pa nahiling maski na sa mga bakong Kristianong Simbahan an panindugan kan elitistang pading ini. Kun dai nya mapugulan an saiyang disgusto o dagit, nata ta sa open letter pa? May malisya para ipasupog si Aya, ta nganing matakot an iba? Siisay ngunian an isip sa diktador?
Saro daa siyang Psychologist, pero nata ta pinili niya si Aya? Dahil babayi na huna nya daing kakayahan na mag simbag? Marhay pa an mga amigo ko sa Librong pang Pandok (FACE BOOK) ta tatao mag respeto sa iba ibang paniniwala.
Sa pagtatapos, saro man na ipinagpapasalamat ko na ako hali sa bakong elite na pamilya (Ung ILITOM pwede pa), ta kun dai baka sa Ateneo man ako nag adal.

TRANSLATION
RE AN OPEN LETTER
Before everything, may I extend my warm greetings to everyone, and I also solicit the indulgence of people that may have a different opinion than mine.
I write in the Bikol Albay dialect for the reason that the issue involves Bicolanos, particularly a province mate, a fellow Albayano from the City of Tabaco.
I never expected it that the context of the letter would emanate from a Catholic priest, even if ever since my sentiments are far from the Jesuits, being more of elitists as if they own God.
I am also a product of two Catholic schools, Though I have not perceived this kind of mentality in these schools, I have not even considered joining their Community. When I was called to serve a small congregation of missionaries was close to my heart. (Thanks that my request was honored that it should not be me that will be called).
I’ve read, as well as I suppose by not a few people, how he condemns Ms. Aya Medel’s preference of presidential candidate when even God respects the free will and intellect of each one of us.
Because of the open letter, we can deduce that many comments in favor of the priest, were centered on who Ms. Aya Medel was. They say she was starred in some bawdy flicks, though it was not long ago that I learned to be choosy in movies to watch.
If that is the premise, let us petition that Sts. Agustin and Mary Magdalene, and all other Saint that once in their lifetime have trodden not the righteous path, though nobody can be certain who really Mary Magdalene was.
It’s an immense Grace from God, for which we have to be thankful for, that there are still many whose faith has solid foundations that do not want to swap Christ with Judas that they remain in the apostolic Church’s fold. As my friend who was an ex-Seminarian said, he is discontented with the clergy but he was born a Roman Catholic and will die as one.
I have never seen even from non-Christian faiths or churches this view of this Jesuit. If he can’t control his disgust or anger, why in an open letter? With malice to humiliate Ms. Aya? Who now is with a dictatorial mind?
He claims to be a Psychologist, but why did he pick Aya? Because she is a woman and incapable of reacting? Better are my FaceBook friends as they respect opposing preferences.
In closing, I have to be grateful that I was born not in an affluent family (dark skinned, yes), otherwise i could have also been in Arneo.
