God said: “Let there be light” and there was light. Unfortunately, God never meant it to be light for the purpose of illuminating the minds of men and brightening the hearts of women.
Imagine God instead declaring “let there be love, beauty, knowledge, and the joy of life, so that the human race can bring forth more light into this world of darkness.”
If this were the case, no Filipino need be blind Christians today still stuck living in fear, misery, and in poverty for God’s glory in heaven. Indeed, in this already 21st century, we Filipinos are still stuck with religious lies and biblical deceptions rather than already enjoying at large decent results of a decent
education that promotes a decent nation.
We still totally reject what our own Jose Rizal said: "I would like the Filipino people to become worthy, noble, and honorable." Indeed, what we have been taught to accept in our schools, colleges, and universities is to be sinners, not saints.
As the Sick Man of Asia, indeed, as devout Christians, we Filipinos would rather continue to accept and obey faithfully what Jesus Christ, two thousand years ago, said: "If any man come to me and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple." Luke 14:26 Poch Suzara
