G.R. No. 223395 December 04, 2018
FACTS:
ISSUE:
Did the printing of the INC centennial commemorative stamps of the PPC undermine the
inviolability of the separation of the church and the State?
RULING:
No, the Court upholds its finding that the printing and issuance of INC commemorative stamp
did not violate Section 29 (2), Article VI of the 1987 Constitution. The printing and issuance of
the assailed commemorative stamps were not inspired by any sectarian denomination. The
stamps were neither for the benefit of INC, nor money derived from their sale inured to its
benefit. The stamps delivered to INC were not free of charge and whatever income derived
from the sale to INC and of the excess to the postal clients were not given to INC, but went to
the coffers of PhilPost.
