    Great storytelling. I fled Vietnam by boat at the age of 14 in 1981 to come to America without my parents and was placed in a foster care system. I had to learn to be mature very quickly on my own and appreciate what America offers. I joined the Navy right after college in 1990 and retired after 30 years of service. I was a devout Catholic growing up in Vietnam and drifted away from my faith when I came to America but had a profound conversion experience 16 years ago, so I am now a born-again Catholic.

    I just read this wonderfully succinct yet richly drawn double biography. If you want to know what makes Filipinos tick beyond their love of a specific singer or any genre of music, this book is an invaluable key. Prof. Tongson is an incisive, gifted and elegant writer. I hope to hear again from her soon. Perhaps about Filipino Diaspora - a long, complicated, dynamic history and its impact in every corner of today's world.

    Do you study all the horrors, misery and death perpetrated in the name of religion? Like burning witches and "heretics" at the stake? Or the extent to which religion is forcibly and dogmatically imposed on people including the forced conversions of indigenous peoples. I'll bet that's not in your curriculum.

    Allah revealed this to me: "Islam is the fastest imploding religion in the world, as more and more Muslims are realising that Mohammad and others (breakdown given below) fabricated the Quran to persue their own personal agendas. Islam is nothing but 7th century Arabic tribalism. Muslims are much better and bigger than this oppressive ideology. I love all Muslims as people, but dislike the Supremisist Quranic Ideology they follow". 1000% support to all Ex Muslims, from 7 billion of us (includes many Muslims)...Lovers of Truth. Breakdown of Quranic inputs as reaveled to me by Allah... 10% Mohammad 30% Plagerised from Christian, Jewish and Pagan texts. 58% Added on after Mohammad. 1% by Satan ( Mohammad himself reaveled this. He later removed them). 1% Eaten by a goat (as reaveled by Muhammad's wife Ayasha...he married her when she was 6years and he was 53years). 0% by Allah. 👍
