The President Who recently sparked outrage for calling God stupid has yet again courted new controversy by saying he will resign if anybody can prove that God exists. President Duterte who has had a thorny relationship with the church, questioned anew in a speech some of the basic beliefs of the Catholic faith, including the concept of original sin which he said taints even innocent infants and can only be removed through baptism in a church for a fee.
"Where is the logic of God there?" Duterte asked in a speech at the opening of a science and technology event in southern Davao City. The 75-year-old said if there is one single witness who could prove perhaps with a picture or a selfie that humans was able to talk and see God, he will immediately resign. He however suggests that there must be a supreme being that prevents billions of stars and celestial body from colliding in a frequency that could have long threatened the human race.
Duterte has called God names over time and got slammed for it by some of his political allies and Catholic Bishop calling him a psychopath. He lamented in that speech that Adam and Eve's sin in Christian theology resulted in all the faithful falling from divine grace. "Who is this stupid God? This son of a bitch is then really stupid." He said.
