Manila, Philippines - Filipinos are really funny people. Some surveys even put Filipinos to be one of the happiest people in the world despite the hardship we face on our everyday lives. Natural calamities visit the Philippines regularly every year. Around 20 storms passes by the Philippine area of responsibility every year and Philippine politicians are rated as corrupt. But despite of this bad news, we can always find a heart-felt smile from the Filipino nation. Being hospitable is also well-known among the Filipinos. It is also mind-blowing to think on how Filipinos are coping up with the storms, flash floods and earthquake that the Philippines are encountering every year. I guess the answer would have to be their strong faith. Philippines is predominantly a Catholic country. Almost all Filipinos are Catholics and belong to several Christian dominations. Faith has been helping the poor Filipinos smile and hope for a better future after every catastrophe that the country have endured. Until one cult have emerged from this part of South-east Asia. Alas, the Iglesia Ni Cristo.
