Lately, Rio's bedtime reading has been "Mangga Messiah", a gift she received from Tito Ram last year. It is the New Testament in amazingly cool Japanese anime.
On Tuesday she got to the story of the healing of the demon-possessed man from Gadarene and saw something that really upset her.
"Eeeee! Mama! Bakit lalaki si Satanas dito sa drowing?!?! Mali ito!"
[What do you mean, anak...]
Lalaki kasi siya dito, e di ba babae si Satanas?
[Anudaw? Aaaa...bat mo naman nasabing babae siya?]
E di ba nga siya ang PINAKAMAGANDA sa lahat ng angels? E di babae siya!
[May powent ka, anak. Hmmm...e ganyan talaga madalas idrowing ng mga tao ang devil, palaging lalaki...Pero sa pagkakaalam ko hindi siya babae o lalaki kasi hindi naman siya tao...]
Ah...e kung nagkatawang tao Siya? Lalake ba siya o babae?
[Hindi ko din po alam e, kasi wala pa akong nabalitaang nagkatawang tao siya.]
Aha! Siguro nga lalaki siya kung sakali, kasi si Jesus lalaki nung nagkatawang tao.
[pwede ba mag call-a-friend?]

Hi, Jing!
I found you! Iwas looking over my guests this morning and saw your url. I was hoping it would be you and it is! Say hello to Rio. Satanas has no gender although it has been portrayed as a man in literature and the arts. In "The Passion" it was a woman! It takes a little girl to make us wonder... and think and ponder... love, ate grace
Ate Grace, you are so right!Niweys, great to "connect" with you again! Hope to see you in one of your book launches! (Post the dates on your blogsite?). Blessings po :)
