Why there are many babies are born every year in Philippines?

Most Filipinos are Catholic and follow the Catholic Church's teachings against contraception, even though it goes against their best interest. There is a major lack of education about the value of birth control among the Filipino population, especially the most impoverished sections. Contraception is not readily available in the Philippines and most people can't afford it, don't consider it necessary, or both. Many people who are sexually active do not use condoms as they don't realize the many negative results that can come from unprotected sex (not just unplanned/ unwanted pregnancy). The Philippines are also very much a male-dominated society still, and even if they are taught about condoms, Filipinas are often reluctant to insist that their partners use a condom due to cultural constraints against saying "no" to a man. Filipinos in poverty often have the most babies, as they see children as their form of "insurance," who can take care of them when they are older. Unfortunately this is a short-sighted solution as these same families often can't care properly for the many children they bring into the world.

Answer

Religion can be compared to food. The true value of food is measured by the quantity of nutrients it contains. Some people live to eat and others eat to live. There are particular food items that can be prepared through various styles or recipes. Most people are attracted mainly to the taste of the food while the nutritional value is completely ignored. Religion is food for the soul. Spirituality is the nutrition for the soul, which should be found in the authentic concepts of religions. But human nature and greed has corrupted religion in a similar manner as genetics and chemicals have impacted on the production of food. A lot of the chemically engineered processes employed in the production of food, is designed to maximize profits with little or no consideration for the health hazards. The human craving for wealth and power has also influenced religion . After a lot of research into the various religious beliefs of the highly commercialized regions of the world, I have come to the rational conclusion that God was created in the image and likeness of the rulers of that particular geographic location. These rulers, through their advisors, created religions that targeted the fears of the people at the particular time. These advisors were similar to the marketing consultants and advertising specialists of today. The wealthy people found creative (psychological) ways of keep the working-class people (slaves) obedient to their whim and fancy. The working class people were threatened with eternal damnation for disobedience to the divine laws and instructions of an invisible authority called God. This God has created you in his image and likeness to obey and serve him with blind faith. This God choose special servants to be his messengers to his humble and obedient subjects. This God also commands that his loyal slaves must kill all those who do not obey his commandments.

Causes of Maternal Mortality rate in Philippines?

arguably possible side-effects from tropical diseases and a general backward countries atmosphere where it is difficult to access emergency health care- this is not in the range of a preventible hazard such as Fires in a town that has spotty fire services such as volunteer, where prevention is more or less implied as normal more than in Big cities. I cannot help think the Backwardness angle alone poses a health problem and not just with pregnancy cases.
