Resolved: The Reproductive Health Bills should be passed into law in the Philippines.

I see that my opponent has waived his opening arguments, so I'll just move on and go with it.Arguments as to why this bill should be passed:The Reproductive Health Bills will be abbreviated as 'RH Bill', and will be recognized as said in section 1 of the bill: SEC. 1. Title: This Act shall be known as the “The Responsible Parenthood, Reproductive Health and Population and Development Act of 2011.” [1]*1 Sexual/Reproductive Health Care Programs: Promotes positive sex education and other health services (Free. Medical or Legal). [1]Conclusion: The bill provides accurate sex education to youths, as said in Sec. 16 of the Bill: Mandatory Age-Appropriate Reproductive Health and Sexuality Education. Since most youths enter relationships (or marriage) without any knowledge or benefit of the orderly reccomendation of schools or social institutes, and because of human nature, and the promiscuity of teenagers, and their knowledge on sex, it affects their decisions as a result. Lots of young people could lose their future, health or probably their lives if this bill isn't passed. The section of the bill also states that sex educations for youths of the right age will be taught by adequately trained teachers in formal and non-formal educational system. The local governement agencies in the Philippines will formulate the Sex Education curriculum, which will be taught in both public and private schools. The bill also states 12 subjects that will be included in Sex Education, like valuing information, responsible parenthood/relationships, AIDS awareness and other diseases, population and development, rights of children/women, etc. Sec. 23 of the bill also provides Sexual and Reproductive Health Programs for Persons With Disabilities which gives them information on their rights and their health, teaching them using the methods on how to teach PWDs.Sec. 24 of the bill states that we have a right to Reproductive Health Care Information, and that "The government shall guarantee the right of any person to provide or receive non-fraudulent information about the availability of reproductive health care services, including family planning, and prenatal care." Once it is passed, local government agencies will construct a campaign all over the country to make the Filipino people aware of their rights, giving them knowledge and promoting reproductive health rights (like family planning, etc.), also giving them free legal advice on this topic, like on Sec. 22, which gives Pro Bono Services for Indigent Women, legal and medical services, etc. *2 Protects/Saves the health of the people (esp. women). Conclusion: As I said, the bill promotes health care. Women are affected and are victimized more when being pregnant, complications arise during pregnancy, which are serious enough to hospitalize or kill women [2]. According to WHO, Women die every minute, at least 1 woman dies from complications, and for every female who dies during pregnancy, around 20 more suffer, this is a result of complications when giving birth [3]. This Bill saves women from being raped then possibly getting HIV/AIDS or some other disease or falsed pregnancy. This Bill saves lives. From cancer and HIV/AIDS. All these are part of RH education and care. *3 Protects/Saves babies Conclusion: When women are saved from pregnancy complications, the rate of infant deaths will diminish. the bill saves babies who die during childbirth, saves babies from premature childbirth, it saves them from poverty, from being tortured and being raised by unfit parents who endager their welfare. *4 By popular votes of the majority of the Filipino people. Conclusion: The Filipinos have spoken, according to a recent survey, 82% of the Filipino people say family planning method is a personal choice and 73% want information on legal methods available from government. They believe that no one should interfere with their right to choose, that the RH Bill is an imprortant bill which needs to be passed [4] (Please refer to that link for more info on that matter). *5 Freedom of Choice: A fundamental right. Conclusion: The bill promotes this right and responds to the majority who want smaller families. Most couples nowadays in the Philippines want smaller families but end up with families larger than what they desire. It promotes family empowerment, family planning and responsible parenthood. It can develop and solve the population issue in the Philippines. Thewill promote equity in health through the health institutions as I said in *1. Removing them of this right is abuse of democracy. Some arguments against RH Bill that I will refute: "Contraceptives (particularly condoms) are bad." How are they bad? Condoms is arguably one the best inventions of man to date. It helps us from HIV/AIDs and cancer. "Sex Education will corrupt the minds of our children." We live in the age where youths are in touch with technology, just leave them alone bored and they'll search for pornography and other stuffs which are more corrupt than this. Sex education, as I said it, helps the youngsters by giving them accurate knowledge on Reproductive health/hygiene. "Once this bill is passed, people will engage in premarital sex." As if this never happened before in our country. Premarital sex happens everywhere, as you read this, probably a million people are having premarital sex right now. "The RH Bill is wrong because it is immoral, it is against God." Sure, 90% of the nation might be Catholic, but that whopping 10% includes other religions, and almost 3% of that 10% have no religion [5]. The Philippines is a secular country, and according to the 1986 PH constitution (Article II, Section 6), secularism should be inviolable [6]. It is not immoral, as I said in my previous arguments. It helps people. "It's abortion." Contraception is NOT Abortion. Abortion is technically defined as the termination of pregnancy [7], whereas contraception are techniques and methods used to prevent human fertilization [8]. There's the difference. I leave my opponent to refute some of these arguments.
