Philippines - Still Stuck Under Religious Garbage

Yes, it is true. The responsible and sustainable mining of our immense mineral resources — described as one of the richest on earth — can pay off all the Philippines’ foreign debt and transform it into a prosperous, mine-rich nation like Australia or Canada! The Philippines has the world’s second biggest gold reserves next only to South Africa, among the top reserves in copper, plus others like nickel, chromite, cobalt, silver, and zinc. Indeed, except perhaps diamond, name it, we have it; estimated worth at more than ONE TRILLION DOLLARS or 45 TRILLION PESOS per annual production. Not to mention the recently discovered oil and coal deposits worth more than enough to make the Philippines - the wealthiest and the healthiest country in all of Asia. Japan has no natural resources except the greatest in any country. The educated minds and hearts of its citizens due to their powerful system of education. Thousands of educated Filipinos are there working as employees in Japanese industries as generated not by prayer and theology, but by science and technology. Singapore has no natural resources except the greatest in any country: the educated minds and hearts of its citizens due to their powerful system of education. Thousands of educated Filipinos are there working as "employees" in Singaporean industries as generated also by science and technology. There is not one cocoa tree grown in Switzerland. Yet the Swiss as products of a powerful system of education produces the best chocolate in the world. Thousands of educated Filipinos are there working as "employees" in Switzerland. We are rich in Agriculture: rice, coconut, sugar, corn, bananas, pineapple, aquaculture, mangoes, not to mention GUABANO - the miracle fruit that prevents certain types of cancer. Industry: textiles and garments, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, wood products, paper and paper products, tobacco products, beverage manufacturing, food processing, machinery and equipment, transport equipment, electronics and semiconductor materials, mineral products, hydrocarbon products, fishing, business process outsourcing services Now look also at the still untapped treasures around us Filipinos - the treasures in plants, flowers, and trees with medicinal and nutritional values; The treasures in our rivers, lakes, caves, and forest; the treasures in the beaches of more than 7,000 islands; the treasures in our shores, bays, and coves. They remain untapped only because as products of schools, colleges, and universities, we are still more into prayer and theology instead of utilizing the power behind science and technology. But most of all, the most powerful and greatest of natural resources - the Filipino mind and heart. Instead of being educated, cultivated and elevated - Filipino minds and hearts are only mutilated, distorted, twisted, and degraded with prayer and theology. Specially for the glory of Jesus on earth as he is in heaven. We are still being taught to LOVE NOT THIS WORLD, NEITHER THE THINGS THAT ARE IN THE WORLD. IF ANY FILIPINO LOVE THE WORLD, THE LOVE OF GOD IS NOT IN HIM." Also, we are still being taught to TAKE NO THOUGHT FOR TOMORROW BECAUSE JESUS WILL SOON BE RETURNING TO REMEDY THE ILLS OF OUR SICK SOCIETY. Also, to worry not about this life in this world. Indeed, to believe only that what is more important is NOT life on this earth, but death in the kingdom of God where our souls are saved; otherwise, if not, we will all end up punished forever in hell. I say it again: Unless the religious garbage is thrown out of our system of education, we Filipinos, in the centuries to come, will only continue wasting our time on this earth having faith in BLIND faith in our sick religious beliefs and values that only make us famous as the Sick People of Asia! The holy bible says: "He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned." Mark 16:16 I ask it again: WE SHALL BE SAVED FROM WHAT? Isn't it time for us Filipinos do some serious constructive thinking? Isn't it time to put to a halt our destructive silly ways in stupid believing? Indeed, we are all born ignorant, not frightened. It is in our sick system of education that teach us to be frightened! We even faithfully believe that a God, in His infinite wisdom, created Filipinos in His own image and likeness!
