An Atheist in the RP-Rizal Forum

The RP-Rizal Forum members refused to believe me – an atheist – when I argued that the execution of Jose Rizal had only to do with religious morons in authority who had him faced a firing squad for writing truthful scandals about the Catholic Church. I am even told that if I have nothing new to add to the ongoing discussion on Rizal’s life, work, and writings, I should just shut up and to take my atheistic “frustrations” and “angst” elsewhere.
Well, I am also saying that the kind of enemies Rizal struggled against are still here pretty much alive today in charge of what should be taught in our schools, colleges, and universities.
In the meantime, as an atheist, I am looked upon as a monster with psychological problem. Really, a feeble, if not a laughable attempt to evade the fundamental questions of truth and falsehood. It is obviously ridiculous to try and defeat atheism by subordinating truth with emotionalism. Such childish reaction only reveals the Christian traditional contempt for man’s ability to think. Ah, but the members of this RP-Rizal Forum would rather prove themselves intellectually crippled at thinking any deeper, but would rather be argumentative with linguistic contortions, if not by algebraic ejaculation as inspired by ecclesiastical masturbation.
