God's Existence Here, There, and Everywhere

It is easy to prove that God is existing here, existing there, and existing everywhere. All we have to do is to pray to God to come down from somewhere out there in the cosmos and introduce Himself to us on this earth. Unfortunately, God is too busy not existing here, not existing there, and not existing everywhere out there in the cosmos. Poch Suzara

Listen to Carl Sagan

Have you ever heard of an atheist hating and killing other atheists because they do not believe in the existence of God? Listen to this famous atheist-scientists: “Every one of us is, in the cosmic perspective, precious. If a human disagrees with you, let him live. In a hundred billion galaxies, you will not find another.” Carl Sagan. . . Now Listen to the Son of God Jesus, the Savior of Filipinos in the Philippines: "But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither and slay them for me." Luke 19:27... And if we do not slay the enemies of Jesus, then we must only obey what Jesus preached: "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 Notice in this God-forsaken country of ours, even our top government officials would readily stand up and speak up first in order to protect and defend Christianity in our country; but would hardly fight to achieve common human decency for millions of Filipinos to live under a decent society?

The Greatest Enemy of the Filipinos in the Philippines

The greatest enemy of the Filipinos in the Philippines is not poverty, but the main cause of poverty - Christianity. Indeed, we Filipinos have never been educated to be the enlightened masters of religion in our own country. On the contrary, we have always been taught to be the frightened victims of superstition keeping us distorted spiritually as a people; and, twisted morally as a nation. Indeed, there is poverty of the deadliest kind - the poverty of the mind and heart. We Filipinos are the only people in the whole of Asia who are proud of having no standard of living with self-respect, dignity, and common human decency; but proud only of the standard of dying especially under poverty for the greater glory of Christianity in our sick and poor country historically...

Atheism According to Astronomer Carl Sagan

“Atheism is more than just the knowledge that gods do not exist, and that religion is either a mistake or a fraud. Atheism is an attitude, a frame of mind that looks at the world objectively, fearlessly, always trying to understand all things as a part of nature.” Carl Sagan. . . And there is nothing dreadful, nothing despicable, or even deplorable about nature that is a part of us. After all, we are all, ourselves, part of nature. Poch Suzara

Our Doctors and Nurses are just as Sick as everyone else in our Sick Society

I am often asked: What would our doctors and nurses be doing inside hospitals and health clinics if they did not acquire college education? Indeed, what a silly question. I ask a more intelligent question: How come the doctors and the nurses working inside hospitals and clinics with their college education to back them up never stand up TO speak up loud and clear against those silly statues of Jesus and Mary and the saints displayed inside corridors and hallways and rooms of hospitals and health clinic? Are they all trying to say that if medical healing fails, faith healing will succeed? Are all of our doctors and nurses really that sick? As sick as their sick patients? Jesus failed to finish his job in saving the world; in fact, more than 2,000 years ago, he promised to return to finish the job. Mary as a teen-ager got pregnant by a holy spirit. The saints of God have all been nothing but a disgrace to the human race.

The Evils of Family Planning and Birth Control Measures in the Philippines

The more babies there are born in our poor and backward country, the development is better for the Catholic church, especially for its daily business more known as "baptism." Also, sooner or later, such babies will soon be children enrolling as students in schools, colleges, universities, and seminaries own and operated by the Catholic church in the Philippines. Thus, family planning and birth control measures specially for our women is a sin. It is immoral. They would considerably reduce the profitable business of Catholic education in this only Catholic country in Asia since the 16th century. At present, in this already 21st century, we produced in our poor and backward country 3 babies every minute or 180 babies every hour or 4,320 babies every day or 129,600 babies every month or 1.5 million babies every year. And to think that these poor babies are fathered by many jobless, if not homeless, - Filipinos, if not also fathered by many rich tourists. After all, IT'S MORE FUN IN THE PHILIPPINES. And to think that many of these babies have no birth certificate. Their mothers are not married. They are mostly single mothers. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The United Atheists of America

One of the many attacks on our country from the Religious Right is the claim that our country is a Christian Nation...not just that the majority of people are Christians, but that the country itself was founded by Christians, for Christians. However, a little research into American history will show that this statement is a lie. Those people who spread this lie are known as Christian Revisionists. They are attempting to rewrite history, in much the same way as holocaust deniers are. The men responsible for building the foundation of the United States were men of The Enlightenment, not men of Christianity. They were Deists who did not believe the bible was true. They were Freethinkers who relied on their reason, not their faith. If the U.S. was founded on the Christian religion, the Constitution would clearly say so--but it does not. Nowhere does the Constitution say: "The United States is a Christian Nation", or anything even close to that. In fact, the words "Jesus Christ, Christianity, Bible, Creator, Divine, and God" are never mentioned in the Constitution-- not even once. Nowhere in the Constitution is religion mentioned, except in exclusionary terms. When the Founders wrote the nation's Constitution, they specified that "no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States." (Article 6, section 3) This provision was radical in its day-- giving equal citizenship to believers and non-believers alike. They wanted to ensure that no religion could make the claim of being the official, national religion, such as England had. The Declaration of Independence gives us important insight into the opinions of the Founding Fathers. Thomas Jefferson wrote that the power of the government is derived from the governed. Up until that time, it was claimed that kings ruled nations by the authority of God. The Declaration was a radical departure from the idea that the power to rule over other people comes from god. It was a letter from the Colonies to the English King, stating their intentions to separate themselves. The Declaration is not a governing document. It mentions "Nature's God" and "Divine Providence"-- but as you will soon see, that's the language of Deism, not Christianity. As an atheist, I said it before, I say it again: America's Founding Fathers were atheists. It is time to reclaim America away from its hijackers - Christianity. It is time to rename the United States of America into what she always intended to be sooner or later - THE UNITED ATHEISTS OF AMERICA. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The Insanity Behind the Teachings of Christianity

"I am saying nothing against the charity of Christians; nothing against any kind of charity or goodness, But I say the Christians, in my judgment have done more harm than good. They may talk of the asylums they have built, but they have not built enough to hold the people who have been driven insane by their teachings." Robert G. Ingersoll Oh My dear Robert G. Ingersoll, in the Philippines, down through the centuries, the Catholic church has built not only enough churches and cathedrals, but also built more schools, colleges, universities, and indeed, seminaries to hold millions of Filipinos to learn how to be aimless as a sick people; and to learn how to be rudderless as a sick nation.

Facing Death with Self-respect and Dignity

Everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die. Joe Louis ... Oh my dear Joe Louis, wanting to go to heaven is just as silly and just as stupid at the same time. Silly, because the day we are born is the day we also begin to live in a dying body; and stupid, because even the bible says there is no such thing as life after death: "The dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward for the memory of them is forgotten." Eccl. 9:5... For my part, as an atheist, I say it again: the good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. It is, in this way, that we atheists, when it is time to face death, we die sober, and not drunk with illusions, confusions, or delusions. Poch Suzara

Pain and Suffering Make Men Develop Character

I was told by my teachers in school that evil is really good because in the end of its all we are placed in this world of pain, sin, and suffering to develop our character. If this were true, I asked: how come millions of children are born dead? How come they were not allowed to develop character? But my teachers would still insists evil is good as it is a blessing in disguise - that pain make men strong and faithful to Jesus - makes them have character - while pleasures of thought and the joys in life degrades man. Well, if this were true, it follows that those damned souls in hell should grow into greatness; while those silly souls in heaven should be ashamed of themselves lacking in character unhappily shrinking into souls miserably devoid of character.

“If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. Remember the words I spoke to you: ‘No servant is greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the One who sent me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin. He who hates me hates my Father as well. If I had not done among them what no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin.

Without God Life is Devoid of Meaning. No Kidding!

The Existence of Nothing is Better than the Existence of Something

The existence of nothing has never harmed anybody. Why then would a good God create something only to harm everybody? Look at the way God created all of us.

In fact, if all of us came out of mother’s womb happy, smiling, clean and healthy, well-fed, and already believing in the existence of the Supreme Being - no need for the atheists to make a fuss about the horrible existence of something.

Wow! Who is God? Where Did God come from? Where is God Going?

What are the different names of God and what do they mean? Answer: Each of the many names of God describes a different aspect of His many-faceted character. Here are some of the better-known names of God in the Bible: EL, ELOAH: God "mighty, strong, prominent" (Genesis 7:1; Isaiah 9:6) – etymologically, El appears to mean “power,” as in “I have the power to harm you” (Genesis 31:29). El is associated with other qualities, such as integrity (Numbers 23:19), jealousy (Deuteronomy 5:9), and compassion (Nehemiah 9:31), but the root idea of might remains. ELOHIM: God “Creator, Mighty and Strong” (Genesis 17:7; Jeremiah 31:33) – the plural form of Eloah, which accommodates the doctrine of the Trinity. From the Bible’s first sentence, the superlative nature of God’s power is evident as God (Elohim) speaks the world into existence (Genesis 1:1). EL SHADDAI: “God Almighty,” “The Mighty One of Jacob” (Genesis 49:24; Psalm 132:2,5) – speaks to God’s ultimate power over all. ADONAI: “Lord” (Genesis 15:2; Judges 6:15) – used in place of YHWH, which was thought by the Jews to be too sacred to be uttered by sinful men. In the Old Testament, YHWH is more often used in God’s dealings with His people, while Adonai is used more when He deals with the Gentiles. YHWH / YAHWEH / JEHOVAH: “LORD” (Deuteronomy 6:4; Daniel 9:14) – strictly speaking, the only proper name for God. Translated in English Bibles “LORD” (all capitals) to distinguish it from Adonai, “Lord.” The revelation of the name is first given to Moses “I Am who I Am” (Exodus 3:14). This name specifies an immediacy, a presence. Yahweh is present, accessible, near to those who call on Him for deliverance (Psalm 107:13), forgiveness (Psalm 25:11) and guidance (Psalm 31:3). YAHWEH-JIREH: "The Lord Will Provide" (Genesis 22:14) – the name memorialized by Abraham when God provided the ram to be sacrificed in place of Isaac. YAHWEH-RAPHA: "The Lord Who Heals" (Exodus 15:26) – “I am Jehovah who heals you” both in body and soul. In body, by preserving from and curing diseases, and in soul, by pardoning iniquities. YAHWEH-NISSI: "The Lord Our Banner" (Exodus 17:15), where banner is understood to be a rallying place. This name commemorates the desert victory over the Amalekites in Exodus 17. YAHWEH-M'KADDESH: "The Lord Who Sanctifies, Makes Holy" (Leviticus 20:8; Ezekiel 37:28) – God makes it clear that He alone, not the law, can cleanse His people and make them holy. YAHWEH-SHALOM: "The Lord Our Peace" (Judges 6:24) – the name given by Gideon to the altar he built after the Angel of the Lord assured him he would not die as he thought he would after seeing Him. YAHWEH-ELOHIM: "LORD God" (Genesis 2:4; Psalm 59:5) – a combination of God’s unique name YHWH and the generic “Lord,” signifying that He is the Lord of Lords. YAHWEH-TSIDKENU: "The Lord Our Righteousness” (Jeremiah 33:16) – As with YHWH-M’Kaddesh, it is God alone who provides righteousness to man, ultimately in the person of His Son, Jesus Christ, who became sin for us “that we might become the Righteousness of God in Him” (2 Corinthians 5:21). YAHWEH-ROHI: "The Lord Our Shepherd" (Psalm 23:1) – After David pondered his relationship as a shepherd to his sheep, he realized that was exactly the relationship God had with him, and so he declares, “Yahweh-Rohi is my Shepherd. I shall not want” (Psalm 23:1). YAHWEH-SHAMMAH: "The Lord Is There” (Ezekiel 48:35) – the name ascribed to Jerusalem and the Temple there, indicating that the once-departed glory of the Lord (Ezekiel 8—11) had returned (Ezekiel 44:1-4). YAHWEH-SABAOTH: "The Lord of Hosts" (Isaiah 1:24; Psalm 46:7) – Hosts means “hordes,” both of angels and of men. He is Lord of the host of heaven and of the inhabitants of the earth, of Jews and Gentiles, of rich and poor, master and slave. The name is expressive of the majesty, power, and authority of God and shows that He is able to accomplish what He determines to do. EL ELYON: “Most High" (Deuteronomy 26:19) – derived from the Hebrew root for “go up” or “ascend,” so the implication is of that which is the very highest. El Elyon denotes exaltation and speaks of absolute right to lordship. EL ROI: "God of Seeing" (Genesis 16:13) – the name ascribed to God by Hagar, alone and desperate in the wilderness after being driven out by Sarah (Genesis 16:1-14). When Hagar met the Angel of the Lord, she realized she had seen God Himself in a theophany. She also realized that El Roi saw her in her distress and testified that He is a God who lives and sees all. EL-OLAM: "Everlasting God" (Psalm 90:1-3) – God’s nature is without beginning or end, free from all constraints of time, and He contains within Himself the very cause of time itself. “From everlasting to everlasting, You are God.” EL-GIBHOR: “Mighty God” (Isaiah 9:6) – the name describing the Messiah, Christ Jesus, in this prophetic portion of Isaiah. As a powerful and mighty warrior, the Messiah, the Mighty God, will accomplish the destruction of God’s enemies and rule with a rod of iron (Revelation 19:15). WOWOWEE! Everybody knows God's name is this or that; but nobody, however, knows who or what God is or where God came from; or, where God is going! We only know that God is merciful and full of love and compassion for as long as he is always omniabsent, never omnipresent! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Holy Water Polluted in the Philippines

The only water that is holy taught in our schools, colleges, and universities is the holy water found inside the font of churches and cathedrals. There is therefore nothing sinful about throwing garbage and trash into our rivers and lakes and and bays. Such waters are not holy. They can be polluted at no harm to the environment or harm to our immortal souls. After all, God in the bible says: "Love not the world, neither the things in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him." 1 John 2:15 In the meantime, Researchers at the Institute of Hygiene and Applied Immunology at the Medical University of Vienna tested water from 21 springs in Austria and 18 fonts in Vienna and found samples contained up to 62 million bacteria per milliliter of water, none of it safe to drink. Tests indicated 86 percent of the holy water, commonly used in baptism ceremonies and to wet congregants' lips, and other religious ceremony such as blessing of the dead - was infected with common bacteria found in fecal matter such as E. coli, enterococci and Campylobacter, which can lead to diarrhea, cramping, abdominal pain, and fever. Nitrates, commonly found in fertilizer from farms, were also identified in the water. If ingested, water containing nitrates over the maximum contaminant level could cause serious illness, especially in infants younger than 6 months, which could lead to death if untreated, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Cory Aquino, January 26, 1933 - August 1, 2009 Oh My Dear Cory Aquino: We are repeatedly told that poverty in the Philippines has nothing to do with the population explosion. It has mostly to do with unequal distribution of wealth due to, if not the result of – corruption here, there, and everywhere in our sick society. As a matter of fact, in this country, we all suffer from poverty of the worst kind – the poverty of the mind and heart. Otherwise, if we were blessed with healthy minds, and healthy hearts - we would not find ourselves: Too poor to solve the problem of our overcrowded barrios, towns, and cities. Too poor to solve the problem of our overcrowded hospitals and health clinics and cemeteries. Too poor to solve the problem of our overcrowded schools, colleges, and universities. Too poor to solve the problem of our overcrowded airports, piers, and harbors. Too poor to solve the problem of our overcrowded buses, jeeps, trains, planes, and ships. Too poor to solve the problem of our overcrowded roads, streets, and highways. Too poor to solve the problem of our overcrowded slum and squatter areas. Yes, indeed, we are a corrupt people under a corrupt government blessed by an equally corrupt church. But what could be more corrupt than men and women irresponsible and insensible enough to bring forth unwanted children into our sick and corrupt society? Meanwhile, ask any of the nation’s children who or what or where their parents are – they do not know. Most of these children do know, however, that their parents are busy working in the baby factory. Indeed, millions upon millions of our men have far more job openings for unskilled work in the baby factory than job openings for skilled work in the business of nation building. The fact is, due to population explosion, the Philippine economic pie is getting smaller and smaller. What is getting bigger and bigger, however, is only that “Pie in the Sky, by and by.” Sadly, not the living, but only the dead, if at all, can partake of this non-existing pie. Is it such a complicated mathematical equation to figure out that it is more practical to raise,feed, cloth, house, and educate children as they are planned products of planned copulation rather than babies to exist as reckless products of reckless fecundation? We are a people still mired in Third World mentality because millions of our mothers and fathers still believe that God will provide. As a matter of fact, even our high government officials have high hopes for the Philippines but not from science education, but only from divine intervention. In there hope for the Philippines? Yes there is if we can only learn to be more constructive intellectually, more creative culturally, and more productive scientifically - by being less destructive sexually.
