ABS-CBN Pulls Out ‘No Race No Religion’ Papal Shirts from Online Shop

Television network ABS-CBN has pulled out one of the papal merchandise that they are selling in anticipation of the visit of Pope Francis in January next year.

The move came after Archbishop Socrates Villegas, president of the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines, on Monday warned the public against buying shirts and merchandise bearing messages supposed to have been made by the pope.

“It is definitely misleading and erroneous,” Villegas said in a statement posted in CBCP News.

In a report from ABS-CBN, Bong Osorio, spokesman of the company, said the shirts bearing “No Race, No Religion” words were not meant to deceive the public regarding Pope Francis’ message of openness.

“ABS-CBN assures the public that there was no intent to deceive or mislead the public through the commemorative shirt that carry statements inspired by Pope Francis’ message of love, openness, and humility,” Osorio said.

“We apologize if a particular statement shirt offended anyone. We are pulling out the item from our online shop and all retail partner stores,” Osorio added.

    I do believe na hindi naman sinasadya ng abs cbn na maoffend ang karamihan sa kanilang statement shirts, it's just that mali lang talaga at wala sa tema ang mga nakalagay at maling sitwasyon.

    that "no race or religion" does not apply to the pope. it is like saying the pope is not catholic.

    Ang problema kasi kahit na magandang selebrasyon o delubyo ay balak pagka-perahan ng ABS. Kung Pasko, ayan may Thank You gift box. Kung may delubyo, ayun kung anik-anik din ibenenta para kuno sa mga biktima ni Yolanda. Ang mga hindi marunong kumanta binibigyan ng album. Ang mga pelikula kahit basura ang storya, todo PR para kumita sa takilya. Naman pati ba naman pagdating ng Santo Papa huhuthutan?

    Archbishop Socrates Villegas, ganyan ba tingin mo sa Pilipino, king ano anong salita na nga napauso jejemon atbp. simpleng "No Race, No religion" tingin mo hindi makukuha ang mensahe na walang diversity lahat pare pareho sa mata ng Diyos. Ayaw mo rin ng "Ganito ako, Ganyan ka, Who Am I to Judge", kase na judge mo na agad na hindi makakaintindi ang mga Pilipino.

    Parang ung tabang shirt daw na fund raising project for yolanda victims. Ang laki ng kinita nila sa fund raising nun pero nkarating ba sa mga victims? Ang laman lang ng pinamigay nilang relief goods ay isang kilong bigas, isang instant noodles at sardinas. Unlike sa ibang foundation na kalahating sako ang binigay na bigas. Kaya sa mga fantard jan, halatang madali lang kau utuin ng istasyon nyo. Todo todo ang pagkakurap, hay naku.

You are not judge by your religion or your God. You are judge based on your faith and how you live by your faith through actions. #justsaying
