History
Ang Tamang Daan began a regular programming on NET 25 on 2001 which was meant only to contradict Eliseo Soriano's teachings in his program Ang Dating Daan. However, somewhere in 2006, they decided to air the program just like the other INC programs, mainly to preach the words of the Bible, and not to involve and contradict other beliefs. The format has been adopted to another INC program, Ang Mga Nagsialis sa Samahang Ang Dating Daan, in 2006, featuring former ADD-turned INC members.
The name of the program is probably meant to be a pun of the name of Ang Dating Daan, which is Tagalog for "The Old Path", with the INC claiming their program, Ang Tamang Daan is "The Right Path".
Relations between the two groups have been perennially strained, and both organizations use their respective television programs as well as other media to present "evidence" which they believe shows contradictions in each others' teachings.
Most of the hosts of the program are the current ministers of the Iglesia ni Cristo such as Rommel Topacio, and Ronilo delos Reyes. They even air some testimonials of former members of MCGI such as Daniel Veridiano, Crispy Perez, Alfie Angeles, Richer Guinto, and some others.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“I believe my ardour for invention springs from his loins. I can’t say that the brassiere will ever take as great a place in history as the steamboat, but I did invent it.”
—Caresse Crosby (1892–1970)
“The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“There is nothing truer than myth: history, in its attempt to “realize” myth, distorts it, stops halfway; when history claims to have “succeeded” this is nothing but humbug and mystification. Everything we dream is “realizable.” Reality does not have to be: it is simply what it is.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
