This is another list which is an indiscriminate collection of trivia (WP:INDISCRIMINATE, definitely WP:Listcruft, and fails WP:LISTN, verifiability, and WP:NOSTATS. No reliable sources discuss that Religious affiliations of presidents of the Philippines is a topic for scholarly interest. The topic is not notable, and thus should be deleted. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 16:17, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete yet another pointless “political notables by random arbitrary quality” list, and also even more pointless than usual because all but two or three(?) are unsurprisingly Catholics. Dronebogus (talk) 18:24, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. While religion does play a part in Philippine presidential politics (for example, The Politics of Religion in the Philippines notes instances of religious bloc voting for presidential candidates), that might be appropriate for an article, but not a list.

Delete Any group of people can theoretically be listed by any number of parameters. However, most of those combinations of groups and parameters constitute WP:Non-encyclopedic cross-categorizations. In order for such a list to make for a valid stand-alone article, there needs to be a good reason why that particular group should be listed by that particular parameter. Otherwise, WP:DELREASON#14 (Any other content not suitable for an encyclopedia) applies. In this case, it has not been demonstrated that there is a good reason to list this group by this parameter. I concur with Clarityfiend that if this is a topic that should be covered on Wikipedia at all, a prose article would be way better than a list. TompaDompa (talk) 17:27, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as it additionally goes against the spirit of WP:BLPCAT and WP:LISTPEOPLE ("Special care must be taken when adding living persons to lists based on religion or on sexual orientation"). Pilaz (talk) 00:51, 22 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
