MANILA -- Cebu Archbishop Ricardo Cardinal Vidal said politicians should not be allowed to participate in any interfaith rally as the solemnity of the occasion is being lost.
"For me, if it's purely interfaith rally and no politicians, that is good, but if it will be political, just like what happened in the February 29 rally, where they were given the chance to speak what kind of interfaith (rally) is that it's inter-politics already," he said.
