I Celebrate Atheism, not Catholicism

Millions of Filipinos celebrate December 25 as the birth of a Jewish Lord, the
Son of God, known as Jesus Christ - born in a foreign land, some 2,000 years ago -
the so-called "Savior of the Filipinos.".

For my part, as an atheist, 365 days of the year - I celebrate daily the pleasures
in life - intellectual growth and philosophical development; the love of learning, happy, expansive, generous, glad when others are happy, not glad when others are not happy.

I celebrate the pursuit of the truth as the unexamined life, indeed, is not worth living. In brief, I celebrate daily the good life - one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. Poch Suzara
