Jesus as God and God as Jesus

In John, Jesus speaks frequently of his extraordinary status in life and speaks of himself in the most exalted language: I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. I AM THE BREAD OF LIFE. I AM THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE. I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE. I AND MY FATHER ARE ONE. WHOEVER HAS SEEN ME HAS SEEN MY FATHER. NO ONE CAN COME TO GOD EXCEPT THROUGH ME. BUT THOSE MINE ENEMIES WHICH WOULD NOT THAT I SHOULD REIGN OVER THEM, BRING HITHER, AND SLAY THEM BEFORE ME. And yet, crucified on the cross, in even more exalted language, Jesus cried out: “My God, My God, why has thou forsaken me?” Now how could a God possibly forsake Himself? And to think that this is the same Jesus who also pleaded: “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” Poch Suzara Google# Facebook# Twitter# Atheists#

The Silly Bible

Genesis 19:9-11 the angel struck with blindness the homosexual men to protect Lot.

Genesis 32:24-30 Jacob had a wrestling match with God and won.

Genesis 3:14 God said to the serpent: “because thou hast done this, thou are cursed.”

Matt. 25:1,2 five virgins were wise and five virgins were foolish.

Ezekiel 4:15 Ezekiel cooked his bread on cow dung. See what I mean about the silly.

Psalm 56:8 David asked God to put his tears in a bottle.

Jude 9 Michael the archangel debated with the devil.

2Kings 2:11 the prophet Elijah traveled to heaven in a whirlwind.

Acts 7:55-60 Stephen was stoned to death for preaching Jesus was the savior.

Acts 8:18,19 Simon wanted to buy the ability to do miracles like Peter and John.

Luke 10:17,18 Jesus saw Satan fall out of heaven.

Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

Luke 1:26 Angel Gabriel told Mary that she would be the mother of Jesus.

John 6:35 I myself am the bread of life. No one who comes to me shall ever be hungry. No one who believes in me shall ever thirst.

Proverbs 18:22, it says that “whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing.”

Hosea 1:2 God told Hosea to go and marry a prostitute.

Isaiah 14:13 Lucifer said, “I will exalt my throne above the stars of God.

Matt 18:21,22 Peter was told by Jesus to forgive his brother 490 times.

Cor.4:20, it says that the kingdom of God is not in word but in power.

Matt. 3:16 the spirit of God descended on Jesus in the form of a dove.

Matt. 28:19 Jesus said Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

Acts 16: 6 it was forbidden by the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia.

In Luke 8:2 Mary Magdalene had 7 demons in her.

Matt. 3:1-4 John the Baptist had an interesting diet of locust and honey.

John 8:6 Jesus wrote with his finger on the ground.

Matt. 20:30 Jesus said that even all the hairs on our head are numbered by God.

John 9:6 Jesus mixed his saliva with clay and put it on the eyes of the blind man to make him see.

John 20:4-6 Peter was the first person to enter the empty tomb of Jesus.

Judges 6:36,37 Gideon put out a fleece to test God.

2 Samuels 11: 2-17 King David arranged to have Uriah killed because he wanted Uriah’s wife.

Numbers 11: 32,33 the nation of Israel got sick and tired of eating quail for dinner.

Acts 12:5-11 Peter was the man who was released from prison by an angel.

Matt. 27:3-5 Judas Iscariot committed suicide by hanging himself.

Acts 1:18 Judas Iscariot committed suicide by falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.

Of course, not everything written in the bible is mythical hogwash. There are quite a few truths. For example:

Job 1:21,22 Job said: “Naked I came from my mother’s womb.”

Eccl. 9:5 it says: “The dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward for the memory of them is forgotten.”

In the final analysis, however the bible is a silly book that should be thrown out the window not only lightly, but thrown out forcefully. The bible is full of heavy religious garbage as parts of the Christian theological junk.

Science and Reality

I have every respect for science. It has been honest enough to admit that it knows only 1 per cent of what constitute reality. I also have every respect for philosophy. It too had been honest enough to admit that all we can ever experience are the appearances that the world presents to us, but that we all remain ignorant of the “reality” of nature.
As for religion, I have every wish it will soon die out. Religion has always been a deadly, not a lively boom, - for mankind. Poch Suzara

Jesus Here and There and Everywhere

In Hebrews 13:8, it says that Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and for all eternity. So where was Jesus to protect and to defend Adam and Eve from the lies of the stupid Talking Serpent in order to prevent them from Falling? Poch Suzara

The Greatest Warmonger

The greatest warmonger of all time was Jesus Christ. He said: “I bring not peace, but a sword.” Indeed, millions upon millions of people have been killed in his name, for his name, and killed because millions more refused to love, worship, and adore his name in war. Poch Suzara

Prayer for Prosperity

Prayer for prosperity? What a lot of religious hogwash! Golly, we pray to God, the Father; to God, the Son; and pray to all the saints; and we even pray to Mary, the mother of God to pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death, amen. Look at the results. We used to be a nation of sinners and criminals. Now thanks to our prayers, we have grown and developed. We are now a nation of experts but only in the business of saying more silly prayers. Poch Suzara

Education

We are not, by any measure, the intelligent masters of our educational institutions. Rather, we are the victims of educational enterprises. In the meantime, our so-called “educators” are again insisting that schools years from 10 years must increase to make it 12 years of total study. As if, the basis of all learning which is teaching the art of questioning everything should take more than a year to learn. Indeed, question everything. It is the power behind the foundation of all knowledge. Poch Suzara

The Perfect God

If God were that perfect why would He need miracles remedy the imperfections of his creation? More to the point: how come even with miracles God proved himself to be a lousy designer? Look at the human body: designed in such a way so as to serve as the housing facility of little creatures called germs, bacteria, and viruses that sooner or later, whether we are designed with free will or not, will eventually put each and every one of us to death? Poch Suzara

Jesus, the Christ

He was not a man of high moral character. He was never bothered with the crime of His Father who never legally married His Virgin mother, Mary. Jesus was not a legitimate son.
That Jesus Christ was the Prince of Peace has got to be the greatest lie ever told. Hitler killed 6 million Jews during World War 2. He was such a amateur compared to Jesus in the business in killing people. Millions of more people have been killed in the name of Jesus during the 5th to the 15th century otherwise known as the Dark Ages; and during the Christian colonization of the Filipinos in the 16th century. People were killed for both believing in Jesus or for refusing to believe in Jesus. Today in the 21st century the senseless carnage in God’s name is still going on. It is mostly about - the Love God up there by hating one another down here.
In the meantime, Jesus is the prophet not of the winners, but the losers. He proclaimed that the first will be the last; that in the end of it all - the weak will be the strong; and that the fools will be the wise. Poch Suzara

Love in the Holy Bible

The bible says love is the one thing that never fails. I Cor. 13:8. What a cheap lie. The love of divinity for humanity has always failed Miserably. Religiously. Indeed, historically. For my part, as a bible reader, I say the bible is a book that should be thrown out the window not only lightly, but thrown out the window forcefully. No other book has caused more misunderstanding, more disagreement, more confusion, hate, violence, and war than the silly holy bible written by inspired superstitious primitives as the authors of God. Poch Suzara

Atheists Hate Divinity

Why do the atheists hate divinity? Well, I am an atheist. What we atheists do hate is human stupidity, not divinity. Especially as it competes with infinity eternally as perpetually inspired by the teachings of Christianity.
Christianity has always capitalized on human suffering and misery. And Christianity was enormously successful in insuring its own existence through Filipino suffering and misery in the Philippines – the only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century. Poch Suzara

The American Stupidity

As an American citizen, I find it ridiculous to notice how, in this already 21st century, elections for a new President of the United States of America have yet much to do with more of the same historical crap. Like whether the American war ongoing in foreign countries like in Iraq today should already end or not? Or that a military officer riding on an aircraft, gets shot down, falls on enemy lines, gets captured and jailed, and that makes him highly qualified to be a candidate for the next president of the USA. Poch Suzara

EARTH as a Speck of Dust

I find it hard to imagine how on this planet earth – of which one million planets the size of earth can fit inside the sun - really earth as a speck of dust floating aimlessly in space will one day be transformed into the kingdom of God as promised in the bible? I also find it even harder to imagine the more than 100 BILLION people who have already lived and died on this earth and have moved to heaven, - will again be relocated back to earth to inhabit the new kingdom of God that will be established here. Hijos de tootie-frootie y patootie GISING NA! Poch Suzara

As An Atheist

I have something valuable going for me as an unbeliever of the faith: I no longer allow myself to be viewed as a sinner or a worthless human being in the sight of God. Again and again I am told that I must learn to see God’s way which is clear. Really? God’s way of which religion? Christianity? Islam? Judaism? All hating and killing each other in God’s name! No thanks! I have better things to do with my life.

The Average Person

The average person, according to the Department of Industrial Education of the University of Texas – retains 10 percent of what he reads, 20 percent of what he hears, 30 percent of what he sees, 50 percent of what he hears and sees at the same time, 70 percent of what he is able to describe in his own words, and 90 percent of what he discusses and performs of what he had read, heard, or seen.
I have yet to read, hear, and see a study of what happens to children after they are taught to believe in God and will be punished forever in hell if they refuse to believe in such a cruel monster. Poch Suzara

Free Speech

Free speech is utterly empty, if not totally worthless, unless it is product of a free mind. Poch Suzara

The Holy Bible

So you are proud of yourself to be a bible reader and a believer? You should, in fact, be ashamed of yourself. Our corrupt and rotten officials in the government are also proud that they are readers and believers of the bible. So are most of the criminals in jail.

For my part, I am grateful. The bible is the only book I have read over and over again that inspired me to become an atheist. Indeed, if I never seriously read the bible from cover to cover, I probably would still be the religious moron as I was during my younger years.

Oh yes, my dear reader. I dare you to read your bible. Seriously. Judiciously. Critically. Any of the 48 different versions of the bible sold in bookstores today. You might begin to understand how much of the hate and violence and wars in our world come from stupid messages from the stupid bible. And this is the same holy book that tells you not to hate and not to kill but amongst the bible characters themselves as inspired by God - they hated and killed each other, especially for the glory of God. Poch Suzara

Faith

Faith can move mountain. Nobody believes it. A Nuclear bomb can move mountain. Everybody believes it. For my part, I would rather have a faith that can remove the mountain of human stupidity in men’s way of thinking; especially those with college education in the Philippines. Poch Suzara

Knights of Rizal

Most of these so-called “knights” of Rizal are more CATHOLIC than they should seriously be RIZALISTIC. They do not carry around with them a book written by Rizal. Instead, they carry around with them the sick bible – the same sick book that gave the Church all kinds of inspirational power to get Rizal arrested, jailed, and executed in public. In the meantime, the bible says that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. On the contrary, the fear of the Lord is the beginning social and political insanity that got great thinkers like our Jose Rizal removed away from the world stage as one of the greatest Filipino thinker mankind has ever produced.

Jesus

How mediocre of Jesus to have cured diseases. He could have proved himself kind and intelligent had he instead made health permanently contagious instead of just temporarily curing diseases during his days. Poch Suzara

Can Religion Merge with Science

Can science and religion merge? Yes, they can; but before the merger can seriously take place, religion must first merge with other religions. The Christians, Muslims, and the Jews have not ceased cutting each other’s throats because, to begin with, they cannot agree what will happen to them after their throats are cut. It is, in this sense, with self-respect and dignity, science has no obligation whatsoever to be "compatible" with silly religion. Indeed, science could not care less about its conflicts against human stupidity or human religiosity such as those behind Christianity. Poch Suzara

The Frightened Cowards

The frightened cowards would sooner spread cowardice than promote self-respect and human dignity. They would be ready and willing to deal at any time with other frightened cowards just to make money or maintain a certain standard of living. But to admit openly that one is a courageous atheist – oh no, no way! They claim they have a wife at home and children in school or associates in business to protect.

To protect them from what? From the ills of our religiously insane society? Shame on you frightened morons! For Christ’s sake many of you are even college educated! Wow, quite a lot of you are even college professors! As for me, I am a high-school expelled atheist and I have no time to have faith in such infantile pursuits. As an atheist, I have no need for an invisible means of support. Poch Suzara

Love and Sex

A man gives love in order to get sex. A woman gives sex in order to get love. The result is usually an unwanted pregnancy. After the child is born, however, the priesthood industry takes over the mess, then threatens the child to start believing that we are all created in the image and likeness of God. Poch Suzara

Praising The Lord Endlessly

Praising the Lord seems like an endless marathon? Is the Lord really that sick and hungry for endless praise and endless veneration? What a dumb conclusion. As a matter of fact, praising the Lord endlessly can only mean more money for the priesthood industry never-endingly. Poch Suzara

Wasted Prayer

How could we Filipinos intelligently grow up as a people and intelligently develop as a nation when we are still in the childish habit of praying daily to God to give us this day our daily bread, and still praying daily to Mary, Mother of God, to pray for us stupid sinners, now and at the hour of our stupid death, amen? Poch Suzara

In This Insane World

In this world mostly populated by men who are selfish, greedy, stupid, insane, and indeed, college educated - there is always something to be grateful for; for my part, I am eternally grateful that I was duly expelled out of high school. It was only in this way that I managed to save not my silly soul, but saved instead my precious mind. Indeed, I grabbed the rare opportunity to enroll as I did enroll in the greatest of all universities – it is but a collection of books. Poch Suzara

Failure in Life

I admit I am a total failure in life. Ever since I was expelled out of high school some fifty years, I started and have not given up ever since waging a daily war against human stupidity. Well, winning a war against human stupidity is just like winning a war against infinity. It is a mission impossible.
Happily, I was kicked out of high school. I vehemently refused to be afraid of God or be afraid of God sending me to hell forever. I refused to believe such hellish nonsense. More to the point, I refused to believe my teachers who pretended to know what in fact they knew absolutely nothing about what they were teaching me to believe. Poch Suzara

No One Alive

There is no one alive today, rich or poor, married or single, fat or thin, hungry or well-fed, tall or short, black or white, believer or unbeliever - that is not without some kind of trouble in life. And to add insult to injury, we are told that God will provide for us since He loves us all. Can you believe such a God? I have a sneaky suspicion, however, that such a God is neither a Jew nor an Arab, but a good for nothing American. Poch Suzara

Incredible to Imagine

It is incredible to imagine how God was so thrilled to have inspired ignorant fishermen to write the holy bible for Him. It is even more incredible to imagine how God totally ignored the Greek geniuses - the thinkers and philosophers – the founders of western science and philosophy to have absolutely nothing to do with contributing to the bible contents. Poch Suzara

God’s Plan

God – without beginning and without end had plans for each and every one of us? That’s fine and dandy; except that God’s plans can only be successful not while we are still alive, but only after we are all dead and buried. Well, after all that investment, sorry, no one can come back from the dead to claim for a refund. Poch Suzara

Forgiving

Oh, dear Lord, you are always forgiving man and his stupidity ongoing perpetually. Why don’t you, instead, ask man to forgive your own celestial insanity also ongoing eternally? Oh Lord, we are only your copies; yours is the Original, especially – the sin! After all, we never originated anything in this world. You did! So Lord, don’t you think it is about time you shape up? Must your same old religious garbage go on forever on this speck of dust called “earth” floating aimlessly in space around a humdrum star called the "sun." Poch Suzara

Thoughtful Psychologists

Psychologists tell us that approximately 10,000 thoughts go through our minds each day. I am quite fortunate. I am able to jot down on paper one or two of my l0,000 thoughts going through my mind each day; especially those thoughts that should provoke the thought of others. Poch Suzara

Free Will

“For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself. For whether we live, we live unto the Lord: whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord’s. Romans 14:7-8
Do you bible scholars now believe that even according to the bible there is no such thing as free will? Poch Suzara

So How come

So how come 3 Billion Asians – Chinese, Indonesians, Cambodians, Vietnamese, Thais, Malaysians, Japanese, Laotians, etc, never heard of Jesus – the Savior of the world? If they did, how come Jesus never converted them into becoming a Christians? What happened to the power of God to spread the Word of God? Only the spiritually poor Filipinos living in morally backward Philippines heard the Word and got to become Christians since the 16th century.
1 Cor. 4:20 says: "for the kingdom of God is not in word but in power." The superstitious primitive who wrote those words must have been a real primitive.
Now, where in the bible, a book written by inspired Jewish authors of God, is the good word for the Filipino? Surely during biblical times, we were already existing on these “pearl of Orient” Asian country before Christianity arrived to transform it into the “Payatas of the Orient.” Poch Suzara

Findeth a Wife

The bible says: “Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing.” Prov. 18:22 Well, what happened to Mary - the wife of God – who had begotten the Son of God Jesus? Of course, God never married her! Mary was not good enough. And to think that the bible clearly states: “Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.” Eph. 5:5. And to think Jesus promised the thief crucified along side Him: "Today thou shall be with me in paradise." Or during His earlier years, Jesus was hanging around with Mary Magdalene, a prostitute, whom Jesus eventually married. Oh well, so much for more spiritual garbage written in the bible. Poch Suzara

Melchisedec - Deathless

“For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high, … without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.” Hebrews 7:7 Don’t any of you bible readers ever wonder where on earth is Melchisedec located today? How come he is always hiding away from the troubles of mankind? Just like a God who is only always omni-absent. We could learn a great deal from Melchisedec’s vast and variegated experiences in life in this world. As one lively bible character mentioned in the Old and in the New Testament, he could surely, for example, reveal to us the Revealed Truth! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Think Positive

"Think positive" is a dramatic redundancy. Just think. It is already positive enough. Poch Suzara

Truth

If you wish to be on the path toward the truth, the best you must do first is to keep away from superstition otherwise disguised as organized religion. Religion did not invent the priest. The priest invented religion. The concept of God was concocted by the priests to explain those things nobody understands. Thus, our ignorance is religion. What we know is science. Poch Suzara

God is Supot

If God created men in his own image and likeness and we are born supot, then God must be supot too. The priesthood industry got me circumcised. After which they eventually intimidated me to believe that God gifted me with a free will. What a bunch of biblical liars! To think my circumcision had nothing to do with a free choice whether I wanted the prepuce off my sex organ needlessly removed or not. My circumcision was part of the mind control business of the priesthood industry. Today they are all mad at me because they can no longer control of my life. Poch Suzara

Passion

I have this passion to be against religion. in every single chapter in the history of human stupidity there is religion always included. Consider too religion has always been at a war against other stupid religions.
The crowning achievements of the history of human stupidity thus far have been the building of a cathedral to please divinity. Indeed, a cathedral is nothing but a monument to human stupidity. Poch Suzara

The Great Flood

Among those men, women, and children who suffocated to death during the Great Flood were my own distant relatives. My own flesh and blood. And for this monstrous criminal act by God against them, I am suppose to love and worship and adore God who saved only Noah and his family onboard the Ark? I say BULLSHIT! I love my ancestors. None were guilty of the Original Sin. After all, none of my ancestors originated anything to begin with.
In the meantime, it must be another miracle: no one asked where all that water go after the Great Flood drowned all those relatives of mine? Poch Suzara

Jesus

Jesus came not to save the world, but save only a part of it – namely – the Jews, “the elect,” God’s “chosen people.” Hey you religious scholars, wake up!
That the Pinoys are now saved only because Jesus came to save the world some 2,000 years? How sick can we Pinoys get as the Sick Man of Asia? Poch Suzara

One Miracle Too Many

After Jesus raised the dead back to life, they all disappeared and no one has heard from them ever since. Jesus himself went into hiding after his own resurrection. Those 3 kids of the Fatima miracle also went into hiding after they claimed that Mary, the Mother of God, appeared to them. Can any of you religious morons explain why the miracle performers play HIDE AND SEEK game after each performance? And how come so many other kinds of miracles have to take place when only one miracle is more than enough. The one miracle, for example, of curing diseases not in retail but in wholesale by making not diseases, but health contagious! In the meantime, the great miracle at Fatima was that 70,000 people saw the sun dancing that day. The greater miracle, however, was that 700,000,000 people throughout Europe did not see the same sun dancing on that same day. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The religious Moron

He is one who is always trying to explain the unknown by referring to the unknowable. In the meantime, religion is, indeed, a force for good; unfortunately, good for nothing. I ask: what keeps the Philippines poor and backward? It must be the silly bible that teaches the Filipino to believe that to be poor and backward is really a kind of blessing from God. Poch Suzara

Silly Soul

For you to claim that I have a soul, and that it will happy or unhappy after I am dead is to pretend that I will still be able to think without my brains, to see without my eyes, to hear without my ears, to taste without my palate, to smell without my nose, and to feel without my hands and skin.
Really, if you wish to remain as a religious moron for the rest of your life, that’s your choice. But please exclude me out from your Christianity as inspired by biblical insanity. Poch Suzara

Silly and Petty

God angry at my thoughts to provoke your thoughts? WOW! It is just like the ocean angry at a drop of water; a star angry at a candle light; or the sun angry at a firefly. Is God really that silly and petty having time and energy to be angry at honest-to-goodness atheists like me? Poch Suzara

The Unholy Bible

The bible is the most unholy book in existence. It thinks for you instead of encouraging you to think for yourself – the very foundation for the attainment of self-respect and human dignity. Indeed, the bible is all about the Jews, of the Jews, by the Jews, and for the Jews. The Pinoys, however, have been taught to believe that they are also part of the Jewish troubles and problems. It is really all about a religious garbage. For my part, as a Pinoy, on my death-bed one day, I will have 3 last words to utter: Fuck the bible! Poch Suzara

Love and Thought

Love is nothing compared to the power of thought; for, without thought, there is no power of love. Poch Suzara
