Amid the divisiveness caused by politicking, a return to God is the only way for the Philippines to move forward and attain peace, Sen. Robinhood "Robin" C. Padilla stressed.

In his speech at the Ambassadors for Peace dinner banquet in Quezon City, Padilla said many Filipinos today, particularly the youth, are divided because they are misled by politics.

"So the only solution for this country is we go back to God. He is the only way. And morality is the only way... The youth right now in the Philippines, they are misled. They love politics so much they don't understand the history. But if only the youth of this country will go back to the Bible or Quran or book of Hebrews or Buddhists, maybe we will have peace," he said.

"My brothers and sisters who are my fellow ambassadors of peace, I'm with you in this fight. This is a fight between good and evil... We have to motivate our youth to be morally independent," he added.

Padilla lamented that while the Philippines is rich in natural resources, politics has kept Filipinos in poverty.

He added that aside from politics, the youth are being influenced by movies that shock even him as a "bad boy of Philippine movies." He noted this means morality in the country is really going down.

"We are I think we are the most religious in Southeast Asia. But we began to forget about religion and we all became experts in politics. The social media everybody is a genius, everybody has a comment," he said.

"It's not about being Christian, or a Muslim, or a Buddhist or a Hindu. It's just believing in God. We have to go back to God. If we will put our faith in men, it's not gonna happen, I'm telling you," he added.
