NP Rank:
Liecaster steals name of Truthcaster, slanders, and gets shut up
A man who stole the name of Preacher Eliseo Soriano goes online in NowPublic.com to humiliate the owner of that name but gets a warning for closure for possible slander.
Identified as Conrad J. Obligacion in Topix.net, this guy sporting the name, "Truthcaster" ironically has Eliseo Soriano as his object of destruction. Evangelist Soriano has been for years sporting the name, “Truthcaster” in his Bible Expositions online. From his many years of broadcasting truth, he is known as Truthcaster in many quarters.
The unidentified reporter with clear connections with the Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) posted a story on January 21, 2009 titled “Behind Phillip Garcia’s libelous ramblings” in Nowpublic.com. Garcia earlier wrote in another news site, in Newsvine.com an article titled, “Behind the Iglesia ni Cristo’s King Maker Role: A Chain of Crimes and Mythical Numbers”.
The INC is publicly known for filing case after case against the preacher, using for witnesses people that Soriano had excommunicated from the Ang Dating Daan (ADD) group. The latest was that they had Soriano on the Interpol’s wanted list for “Sex Crimes.” Soriano had earlier excommunicated a gay from his congregation who was found out from investigations that he had raped some 14 of his subordinates. In retaliation, Daniel Veridiano, alias “Puto” filed a rape case against the preacher. This was when he had to leave Soriano’s group where he could no longer be accepted for flagrant disobedience to church doctrines.
The rape case filed by Puto against the preacher was dismissed by the regional court of Pampanga but for unknown reasons, it had been re-filed by Raul Gonzalez, the Secretary of Justice, himself who had no connections with the case. The INC is very influential with the Philippine government arising from its bloc voting practice. As a result, the INC endorsement is heavily sought for by politicians, local and national.
Soriano is widely known for exposing false prophets. When he has to discuss biblical truth, he is inevitably led to discuss the false teachings of so-called churches. One of those he had been criticizing wildly is the Iglesia ni Cristo who claims Christ is a human being aside from other claims, and collects tithes after tithes. As a result, many INC members have left their fold.
The reporter said, “After reading the piece I begin to understand that this Phillip Garcia does not have any idea whatsoever what libel is.” Garcia, however, was able to present as many sources as he could.
The unidentified INC supporter had posted Soriano’s picture and had captioned it “Interpol Wanted Poster” although it was Garcia he was supposed to deal with. He also posted Phillip Garcia’s picture.
NowPublic.com’s moderator, Amyjudd, however flagged the story and had required the unidentified reporter to improve his story. She said, "the site does not allow posts that slander someone personally" and that "we feel that the post indeed does just that." “Whatever your purpose is with this post, this may not be the way to go about it,” the moderator said.
On February 4, 2009, the moderator closed the thread saying that the poster failed to come up to expectations: “I am closing this comment thread due to the author’s lack of action to deal with the wrench on [his] post.”
Relative to this kind of work, in 2008, Rizalino L. Arrabis, another member of the Iglesia ni Cristo had been posting a hundred-and-one personal attacks against Soriano. They had been deleted, however, by Rob Walker, another moderator in NowPublic.com who had issued him a warning. Walker noticed Arrabis' penchant for starting his comments by twisting everyone's name, and then would follow up with some verbal venom.
Arrabis had been posting his attacks in relation to two posts looking for Eraño Manalo who was not responding to Soriano's challenge to a debate to defend his teachings. The story can be found in INC shouts: "Where is Sir Erano Manalo? and INC still shouts: "Where is Sir Erano Manalo?. Both of these can be found in NowPublic.com.

Anyone spreading disinformation does not deserve to be in news sites.
Honesty is a given for anyone professing to be a communicator. That is a principle that should never be broken.
If one begins communicating by stealing one's name, the rest of what he says cannot be trusted.

I think these photos and video shouldn't be removed. This information enhances the post.

Manolo Favis is an honest, hardworking radio host in the Philippines who had invited Eliseo Soriano to the Genius Family segment of his radio program in DZBB.
Soriano was among many preachers in that program. Little by little, the preachers backed off because the public were asking questions only from Preacher Soriano and almost nothing from the other preachers. Soriano was able to answer the many queries from the public regarding salvation and related matters. This idea led to his popular program, Itanong mo kay Soriano, Biblia ang Sasagot (Ask Soriano, the bible will answer).
So, Liecaster, do not desecrate the name of Manolo Favis by using his name.

This same Liecaster who's pretending to be Truthcaster was the one trying to make a deal with me in his comment to my story here in Nowpublic.com, titled "New Year is When One Begins to Know the Truth."
He said, and I quote:
"I'll make you a deal. Tell Soriano to remove all the nasty things you and other Soriano supporters wrote and posted about other religions and I'll stop writing about Soriano. Do we have a deal? If not, I'll just keep writing."
This Liecaster is desperate. If you're in your right senses, why would you make a deal with someone whom you believe is twisting the truth? If you've got nothing to hide, why steal somebody else's name? You dare teach me of what libel means and then directly attack my person? Who would listen to someone like you who pretends to know legal terms and then use it against the definition it presents?
You really better shut up, Liecaster. And thanks, kotawinters, for this article.
at 20:18 on February 9th, 2009
I doubt that the type of Rizalino L. Arrabis and this Liecaster will stop on their ways of fabricating lies about other people. They will not stop.
There's no peace among the wicked.
I'm just glad and thankful for these fair moderators.
Unlike in the Philippines, INC Ministers keep on maligning Bro Eli Soriano on television without any reprimand from MTRCB. I guess INC followers can't manipulate the moderators of these public web sites.

This is the real truthcaster - the one who has labored in preaching the truth for many years.
Hehe! You don't simply call yourself an achiever by stealing one's hard-earned accomplishment.

Hi guys,
I added the wanted poster and video of Bro Eli's nasty habit to your articles. Enjoy.
Peace? I have peace. It's Brod Eli, the fugitive who's doesn't have peace. I hope he enjoys my articles.

Continue with your wickedness.
That is God's justice.

I can't even type your name as truthcaster when in fact all of your stuff and posted article are not true. You are truly a deceitfulcaster. Why did you transform yourself as a "truthcaster" as your user name?
You said "I added the wanted poster and video of Bro Eli's nasty habit to your articles." If this is nasty video or photo, why are you enjoying to post this stuff? I think you are enjoying immorality!
But your point is contratry to the reality, Bro. Eli Soriano is really a good man, and he insisted to do charitable works..

I just deleted a video placed side by side the photo I placed for the evangelist. It was NEGATIVE in the sense that it depicted Bro. Eli.spitting.
Who posted it? No other than the liar sporting the name, "Truthcaster."
What the bible said is true. In the last days, many shall continue to be purified; yet many shall continue to be wicked.
ATTENTION MODERATOR: Why was that fellow with the username, "Truthcaster" in this site able to meddle with my write-up?
at 05:20 on February 11th, 2009
what's this all about? you can dish it but can't take it? what about the negative "news" you posted? now think about all the pain you caused and learn.
at 00:22 on February 11th, 2009
Could it be that this truthcaster pretender also a moderator here in nowpublic.com? Also, kotawinters, please ensure that your access has not been compromised. Change your login credentials right away.
at 06:00 on February 11th, 2009
ATTENTION MODERATORS: Why is this member named "truthcaster" allowed to insert his videos in my write-up?
I keep on deleting and he keeps returning it.
He is an impostor and he is not the real Truthcaster.
What kind of member is this that he has no honesty and the decency to remain upright?
at 08:45 on February 11th, 2009
I did not make the Interpol Wanted poster I'm just letting people know that Soriano is a wanted fugitive and anyone who knows where he is should tell the local police so he can be brought to justice.
And stop removing these valuable pieces of information.
at 19:05 on April 13th, 2009
shame on you.. who don't know the real reason of the those accusations to BRO ELI SORIANO ,you also like some of your pastors who love to tell a lie to other person but not even bother to check yourself.....
at 06:17 on February 11th, 2009
TO THE MODERATORS:
We have observed this post being vandalized by "Liecaster" who pretends to be "Truthcaster." His actions are unethical and his intention is clear. He has no right to disfigure someone else's article. Please take action.
at 20:37 on February 11th, 2009
truthcaster, I mean liecaster,
The battle between us should be through arguments - not your VANDALIZING my story by inserting your own photos and videos. Time after time.
Not even a second goes and you insist on your own photos.
I delete and you post! I delete and you post! The story is mine - not yours.
I can now see what kind of religion you come from.
I pity those who are with you. It is for this reason that Pastor Soriano is working hard: to save them from your deception.

at 22:13 on June 27th, 2009
Conrado J. Obligacion is the real identity of liecaster.
Don't try to muddle the issue.
Of course, we know, he is a true Iglesia ni Cristo member - especially from his trademark, "Hate Soriano" in all his discourses.
at 23:03 on June 27th, 2009
Ernesto,
Can you give us more information about this liar?
Immediately after you said Conrad J. Obligacion is actually Cidric Amalon of the Iglesia ni Cristo, he went into an frenzy.
What did this liar do?
He posted VIEW MY PROFILE to confirm there is really a Conrad J. Obligacion with his picture, heaven knows, if that is true.
You posted June 3, 2009.
He posted June 4, 2009.
Hahaha.
at 23:10 on June 27th, 2009
Liescaster, Cidric Amalon aka Conrado J. Obligacion,
Gayness is not a disease and it should not be something to be ashamed of.
So why are you blackmailing a gay to stop talking about your filth in the Iglesia ni Cristo?
If Er is a gay, so what?
If you are a straight, so what?
Are you on a moral high ground to damn a gay just because he is exposing the filth in your so-called "church?" At least, he is talking about truth.
It is the same thing you are doing to Bro. Soriano. You want to malign him so that he will stop talking about the filth in your so-called church.
