It takes “-Man” to make Spider-Man a superhero. Without Peter Parker, he’s just a spider.

Pasensiya na; tao lang ako.” 
   
Am’baba naman ng tingin mo sa Tao.  Para siyang batong walang isip at pagpapasya, parang hayop na hindi makapangingibaw sa mga udyok.  
When a philandering husband defends himself, "Tutuka at tutuka ang manok kapag may palay kang inialok."  He must be corrected , "Ulul!  Manok ka ba?!!"


Man is not a mere animal; he’s a “rational” one (Darwin).  He’s not a mere body; he’s an “embodied spirit” (Aquinas).  He’s not just an existence; he’s also self-aware (de Chardin).  He’s not only being; he is “being-in-the-world” (Heidegger).


So please stop using “Pasensiya na; tao lang ako.”  That’ll be a serious demolition of what Man truly is and what Man is capable of.  The more appropriate mantra is “Ibahin mo ako; tao ako!”.

Man has great power.  And thus his being irresponsible is inexcusable.


Ibahin mo ako; tao ako!
