What is Really Wrong With Us Filipinos

Ever since Catholicism arrived in the Philippines during the 16th century up to this already 21st century, we Filipinos are still grateful even if we remain God-forsaken as a people; and we remain still faithful even if we are poor and backward as a nation. We still believe and have much faith, and indeed, also still have high hopes that what will ONLY help us grow as a decent people and what will ONLY generate our development as a decent nation is NOT with the growth and development of Filipino intelligence via the power of science and technology, but ONLY with the power of the Son of God Jesus and His bible and childish theology - the SAVIOR of the Filipinos in the Philippines. As if the life and times of Jesus on this earth were based on factual historical reality! Indeed, Jesus was no more real as a historical character than is Superman, Spider Man, Batman and Robin, the Lone Ranger and Tonto - all existing only Comic books for children... Our nation cannot be radically reformed except by the radical reform of our traditional beliefs and obsolete values. This, in a neat summary, is what is really wrong with us poor spiritually, bankrupt morally, corrupted politically, sapped economically, and degraded historically - Filipinos. Specially, as millions of us Filipinos are the indoctrinated products of schools, colleges, and universities own and operated by the Catholic church in particular and by Christianity in general!!!! I said it before, I say it again: Never could we ever grow as a healthy people; or, develop ourselves into a wealthy nation if we continue to believe that ATHEISM is a form of neurotic behavior or mental illness. Indeed, if we continue to label ATHEISM as a psychological problem while at the same time totally ignore the real fundamental questions of truth and falsehood!!! Millions of college-educated Filipinos, like the college-educated saps on these pages, attempt to defeat ATHEISM by subordinating the truth to childish emotionalism. Obviously, as Filipinos, we accomplish nothing. We reveal nothing; except our shameless CONTEMPT for man's great ability to think! As if great works needed for growth as a people; and, great works needed for development as a nation can ever be accomplished in this world by being THOUGHTLESS on the one hand; and by being MINDLESS on the other hand!

Poch, since you have not provided any evidence at all to support your claim that Jesus was not a historical figure, I'm curious how you came to believe such a thing. After all, even secular historians will admit that such a person existed and confirmed the accounts of the gospel writers. So I must ask, do you have a good, logical reason to dismiss the consensus of biblical scholars, or is it simply an uneducated opinion?

Ken, as soon as Jesus returns to earth as he promised to return some 2,000 years ago, I will supply you with all kinds of evidences that Jesus was in fact the only begotten Son of a Supernatural Jerk! Cheers! Poch
