President Aquino and bride Marian Rivera

Quezon City, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles) – Philippine President NoyNoy Aquino, considered the most high-ranking eligible bachelor in his country, looked dashing in a black tuxedo at his wedding at the Immaculate Concepcion Cathedral in Quezon City on Tuesday.

It was not only a star-studded wedding but also a pompous ceremony officiated by eight bishops and seven priests.

The bride, actress Marian Rivera, was all smiles as she marched towards Aquino who was patiently waiting at the altar. Rivera wore an elaborate designer wedding gown and tiara reminiscent of many royal weddings. The Michael Cinco dress cost Two Million Pesos.

Of course, presidential sister Kris Aquino was in the house, wearing a bright yellow strapless gown. She was seated in the front pew, along with son Bimby, a famous child actor.

Even members of the presidential security detail all looked handsome in their barong tagalog, the traditional formal wear for Filipino men.

The groom couldn’t be more happy that the president stood as best man. The groom, Dingdong Dantes, also an actor, is a very good friend of Aquino.

POPE FRANCIS WILL VISIT ARROYO, JAILED SENATORS, NAPOLES DURING PHILIPPINES VISIT

The Vatican, Italy (The Adobo Chronicles) – Mathew 25:36 : ‘I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

This biblical verse will be the overarching theme of the coming visit to the Philippines by Pope Francis.

Today, The Vatican announced a revised schedule of the papal visit to this Catholic country of 100 Million people.

The pontiff will spend an extra day in Tacloban and other cities devastated by last year’s typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda). He will be distributing clothes to typhoon survivors. Top Italian clothing designers like Gucci, Fendi, Diesel, and Dolce & Gabbana have donated crates of their top-of-the-line clothing designs for this purpose.

Instead of meeting with government officials in Manila, the pope will visit former President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo and Senator Juan Ponce Enrile who are both under hospital arrest for corruption charges. He will also spend time with Senators Jinggoy Estrada and Bong Revilla as well as businesswoman Janet Lim-Napoles — all of whom are in prison in connection with the pork barrel scam.

The revised papal schedule was finalized despite objections from President NoyNoy Aquino and the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines.

Indeed, when he visits the Philippines in January, Pope Francis will clothe the naked, take care of the sick and visit those in prison, just like it says in the bible.

PAT ROBERTSON: GAYS WILL BE EXTINCT BECAUSE THEY CAN’T REPRODUCE

San Francisco, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – Televangelist Pat Robertson’s recent comment about gays didn’t sit well with a San Francisco coalition of heterosexual parents.

In his comment on the TV Show, ‘The 700 Club,’ the 84-year-old former Southern Baptist minister said that “homosexuals will die out because they can’t reproduce.”

The Hetero Coalition (THC) issued a statement today saying that Robertson is out of touch with reality, pointing out that “it’s the heterosexuals that are giving birth to gays.”

“Is he saying that we, reproductive heterosexuals, will only produce heterosexual offspring,” a THC spokesperson who has identical twins that are both gay, asked. “And how about heterosexual couples who choose not to have children — will they also become extinct?”

THC asked Robertson to apologize on national TV for making that absurd statement.
