God’s Chosen People

That the Filipino today is also among the chosen People of God says little about the Filipino. In fact, it says a great deal more about God and the ways of his sick partner – the devil gifted with a more efficient free will than yours or mine. To be God’s Chosen means to be subjected to persecution as well as degradation. Consider the Jews then popular as the Chosen People of God: they have been driven from their natural home by the Roman capture of Jerusalem ( 70 a.d. ), scattered, persecuted, and decimated by Christianity and Islam – which have been born of their scriptures; barred by the feudal system from owning land; shut up in congested ghettos; mobbed by people and robbed by kings; outcast and excommunicated, insulted, and injured; and in modern times in Germany, they were isolated, mutilated, decapitated , asphyxiated, cremated, and granulated. These are some of the horrors Chosen people of God must experience in this world. I said it before, I say it again: - so long as we continue to have faith in divinity, so long as we continue to be frightened of deviltry, so long as we continue saving our stupid souls with prayer and theology, so long as we continue degrading the evolution of our intelligent minds, so long as we continue degrading the power of science and technology, we Filipinos, in the centuries to come, shall surely be even more famous as the Sicken People of a Sick God in Asia...
