Answer 3

I'm part-Filipino. Because of the Spanish influence in the Philippines, religion plays a large part in the Filipino culture. Since Roman Catholicism focuses on a one universal truth in the existence of God and the divinity of Jesus Christ, I'd have to say the it's actuality the contrary, and most Filipino's would be anti-pragmatic and more apt to act in accordance to the Bible.

I personally agree with approaching situations from a logical and practical angle rather than based on a theoretical belief structure. By all means, hold your beliefs, but don't let them hold you.
