In All of Nature

In all of nature and its beauty, only one stands out naturally ugly and obscene - RELIGION. Sacred beliefs have yet to inspire men away from cutting each other's throat for the glory of the supernatural; specially as religious men cannot agree as to what will happen to them after their throats have been cut.

The Bible Commands

The holy bible commands that women bear children in pain and in sorrow. It simply means that mothers have no free will to ease the pain and suffering of child bearing as that is totally against the dictates of God's expressed divine will. Poch Suzara

Letter To Newsweek

Letter to Newsweek May 11/2004 Dear Sirs: Haven't you editors learned from the Philippines? As the only Christian country in Asia, we Filipinos love only two things: corruption and God. And due to corruption, we all love God up there by hating one another down here. Why are you proud to report that Christians are swelling in numbers in China today. Shame on you. And if your report were true, shame on China for now embracing beliefs and values that have kept Third World countries poor and backward. Somebody ought to tell the newly converted Chinese Christians in China today that in the modern world today saving human minds and hearts is far more useful for the future of the human race than saving souls useless as a divine disgrace. Poch Suzara

Thanks To Science

Thanks to science, we have more knowledge of our world today than our grandfathers knew yesterday. Now isn't it rather silly when we have to believe in the sacred words uttered long ago by silly men who knew even much less? And to think that such inspired authors knew no more than their own ancestors did. Poch Suzara

How Can We Grow

How can we grow as a people when we are taught to believe that there is a better life to live in other foreign countries? How can we mature as a nation when we are also taught to believe that there is a better life to come in the next world? In the meantime, we are also taught that true freedom comes not from choosing our way, but yielding only to God's way. No wonder corruption, in this God-forsaken country, corruption is the not the worst, but the best part - of our culture. Poch Suzara

Religious Crackpots

Religious crackpots took advantage of the child in you to learn and to believe in childish nonsense. Today the same religious crackpots continue to pray for you not to grow up. In this way, they continue to take advantage of the child in you. It always works; especially since they never cease to tell you to have faith since you have no other choice but to believe in your own free will. Poch Suzara

Not One Filipino

Not one Filipino has ever become filthy rich for believing that God is bad; yet millions of Filipinos are filthy poor for believing that God that is good. Poch Suzara

As An Atheist

As an atheist, I am most proud to have robbed death of its terror. I may be afraid of dying; but I am not afraid of death. What is even more important, however, is that as soon as I abandoned love and respect for a divine grace, I eventually found grace in my heart to have more compassion to the plight of the human race. Poch Suzara

Free Will Nonsense

Most of us believe that we have free will; yet we have forgotten those school days, when we were not free at all to question our teachers who frightened us to believe that, whether we like or not, we had no other free choice but to believe in free will. For my part, I say, good will makes more sense than free will. After all, no one had the opportunity to freely choose not to be born at all; especially to be born in this mad world! Poch Suzara Twitter# facebook# Google#

I Refuse To Believe

I refuse to believe in the power of prayer. According to the bible, Jesus too often prayed. But as a God himself, how come he could not answer his own prayer? Otherwise, if he could answer his own prayer, how come crucified on the cross, he cried out: "My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?" Poch Suzara

The Scientific Way

If you wish to prove that the scientific way of thinking is worthless, all you have to do is to prove with evidence that "evidence" is just as worthless; especially in the search of the truth which is precisely what science is all about - the search of the truth. If you can find the truth, more, much more than a Nobel Prize awaits you. Poch Suzara

Blind Faith

All of us children in school we were taught to cherish blind faith. Today as grown-ups we are even blind enough not to see that, for the most part, our schools, colleges, and universities are commercial enterprises, and educational institutions. Indeed, if we were a people educated with a vision of the here and the now, and educated with the power of reason, we would be not only be one of the richest people, but also one of the most advanced countries in Asia today. Poch Suzara

Bertrand Russell

Bertrand Russell wrote: "One of the painful things about our time is that those who feel certain are stupid and those with any imagination and understanding are filled with doubt and indecision." For my part, I am most proud that I am always full of doubt. Bertrand Russell may not have taught me how to become a professional philosopher; but he taught me how to be no longer a vacillating creature by having confidence in my own precious mind before believing the mind of others. Poch Suzara

Science Honesty

Faith-healers, astrologers, phrenologists, palmists, fortune tellers, magicians, crystal-gazers, ghosts, angels, devils are the playmates of the psuedoscientists. On the other hand, the true playmates of the scientists are reality, nature, observation, experimentation, and being honest as scientists cannot afford to be dishonest in the scientific community. Poch Suzara

We Are What We Are

We are what we are as a people partly because of Vatican trash. We are what we are as a nation partly because of Hollywood garbage. For my part, I envy the progress of human decency of other Asian countries not influenced by false values under the tradition of sacred, if not glamorous, lies. Poch Suzara

Thanks To My Free Wll

Thanks to my free will I am free to believe that there is no God. But thanks even more free will, I believe it necessary to tell grown-ups that there is no God; just as much as I also believe that it is also necessary to tell children that there is no Santa Claus. Poch Suzara

Eternity Existed

Eternity existed before we were born. Eternity will continue to exist after we are all dead and gone. Sadly, however, eternity does not seem to care whether we had lived briefly or had died eventually. And to think that we all begin to die as soon as we are born. The idea therefore is to live decent and wholesome lives not by wasting it preparing for the next life, as there isn't any. Poch Suzara

One Hundred Billion People

Approximately ONE BILLION people leave this world every 25 years or every generation. This means that more than 100 BILLION people have already lived and died on this earth since biblical times. Now if God could inspire authors to write the bible, wouldn't it be wonderful if the same God could inspire as well the theologians of today to give us a report as to just exactly how many people have been saved and made it to heaven? And how many people are already damned in hell? This report could be certified by Jesus who, according to biblical account, ascended bodily to heaven and there with him is his mother Mary, and his father Joseph including the saints. For my part, until I get such a report, I shall continue to be a happy and a proud atheist till the day I die. After I am dead, and I meet with God in the next world, I hope I get a chance to ask God: as a God with power and authority what exactly have you done to answer the daily prayers said by millions upon millions of Filipinos to save them away from poverty, especially spiritual poverty as a people; and, to straighten out the religious mess that's been keeping Philippines messy and backward economically as the only Catholic country in Asia since the 16th century? - Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

No Labor Leaders

There are no labor leaders in the Philippines. There are, however, labor dealers who are in business for themselves at the expense of labor. Poch Suzara

In The Afterlife

If the afterlife, if any, I do not care to be with God in heaven or to be with Satan in hell. I would rather spend eternity with the likes of Bertrand Russell, Will Durant, Carl Sagan, Richard Dawkins, Robert G.Ingersoll, Tom Paine, Jose Rizal, and with my sweetheart, my lover, my sexual partner: - a dear and a trustworthy friend, my editor, my associate, a fellow-atheist, a rarity indeed, as she is that kind of woman to me that I thought existed only in dreams. Poch Suzara

Beliefs Cannot Promote

Beliefs cannot promote themselves. Beliefs need schools, colleges, and universities at best; at worst, however, it needs the army, navy, and the air force to promote such nonsense. As for the values of unbeliefs by way of doubt that promotes a rational way of living, all that is required are three simple skills: - critical thinking, evidential reasoning, and questioning authority. Poch Suzara

Three Certain Things

Aside from death and taxes that are certain, there is one more thing that's certain: you are your mother's child. Fathers are sometimes hard to determine even by mothers. Poch Suzara

The Priesthood Industry

The number one enemy of liberty has always been the priesthood industry. The priests have never accepted the power of free thought. Their teachings are still based on faith without which there is no such thing as the priesthood industry. Poch Suzara

It Does Not Matter

It does not matter to me if God does not believe in me. What's more important to me is that I do not care to believe in God. It is a heavy burden to believe in non-human beings that do not exist. Besides, if there is a God, why is he always out there instead of being down here with us everywhere? Poch Suzara

The Most Belittled Character

The most belittled character mentioned in the holy bible is Joseph. He was told by an angel of God that his wife Mary is still a virgin. Can you blame Joseph was being so dumbstruck? The day he found out about his wife's virginal condition, he refused to talk to any one. Not even to the bible inspired authors. Poch Suzara

Democracy versus Theocracy

Everything is a lesser evil in the Philippines; especially its democracy. It has as yet to put up with a greater evil: theocracy. Poch Suzara

Philippine Population

The population of the Philippines is composed of demons in the minority; fallen angels in the majority; and the rest are the misbegotten children of God. We got to be proud of something. After all, we were once the only and now the biggest Christian country in Asia. Poch Suzara

God is Good

God is good; sadly, however, not that good. God was good when He inspired the authors to write the holy bible; unfortunately, He was not that good when He forgot to inspire as well the best part of any book: - the readers. Poch Suzara

Kill The Evil Called Religion

Yes, we can kill the evil called religion with the power of thought. Unfortunately, religion has already made sure, with the crippling weapon of the threats of eternal punishment, that our power to think stays crippled for the rest of our lives. Poch Suzara

For God So Loved the World

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have life everlasting." God may have loved the world; but at the rate God allowed the world to beat up, scourge, spit, shove, push, hurt and nail his son Jesus crying and bleeding and dying on the cross, God obviously never loved the poor fellow. In the meantime, top management then in heaven were all like a bunch of silly theologians here on this earth. They thought it was such a great idea to crucify not the devil, or crucify the Talking Serpent, but put instead the son of God Jesus crucified on the cross to die for the sins of the world.

I said it before, I say it again: to hell with this biblical baloney. Poch Suzara

I Was Once A Devout Catholic

Indeed, I was once a devout Catholic. If there were a God, however, that I will meet after I am dead, the first thing I will do is to ask God to forgive me for having wasted some 18 precious years of my life as a heartless Christian in general and a mindless Catholic in particular. Poch Suzara

There is No God

Only a fool says there is no God. For my part, I would rather be a fool than believe that we can pray daily to God to "give us this day our daily bread" and then see men, women and children starving to death even as they love, worship, and adore such a God. Poch Suzara

The Power of Prayer

i am told that prayer works. Look at Mary, the Mother of God, who asked the world to pray for the conversion of Russia. It worked. Communism has collapsed in Russia. Well, how come the prayers of Catholic Russians themselves did not work when they prayed for the prevention of communism to spread throughout Russia to begin with? Poch Suzara

If Prayer Works

If prayer works, how come we still need hospitals? How come we still need the medical profession? How come we still need to improve the existence of medical science and technology? Indeed, if prayer works, how come health has not yet been made contagious by the power of God as the result of the power of prayer? Poch Suzara

If Stupidity Causes Trouble

If intelligence causes trouble, what is needed is not less, but more intelligence. It is same thing with freedom: If freedom causes trouble, what is needed is not less, but more freedom. It is not the case, however, with stupidity for, if stupidity causes trouble, what is needed is not more, but precisely no more stupidity. Poch Suzara

Vision

When there is no vision, people perish. When there is vision, people flourish. As the only Christian country in Asia since the 15th century, where is the vision for the here to love our fellow-citizens, and where is the vision for the now to love our country? Poch Suzara

If There is No God

If there is no God everything is permissible? In fact, since there is always available from God at any time the forgiveness of sins and crimes everything is permissible that makes for our sick and insane society. Poch Suzara

We Arrive At The Truth

We arrive at the truth not by easy praying but by hard thinking. Most people, however, do not like to think. They already know and enjoy the truth. It's called the Revealed Truth. The problem, however, with the Revealed Truth is that it has not yet been revealed to the Filipinos; it has only been revealed by God to His chosen people - the Jews. Poch Suzara

Education in the Philippines

What is education all about in the Philippines - the only Christian country in Asia? Six years in grade school. Four years in high school. Another four to six years in college. It is all about learning how to pray, and how love, worship, and adore a Jewish God who will provide as He provided us with a son Jesus born in a manger and died on a stick in Israel some two thousand years ago. And to think that Israel today is not a Christian country. It continues to be a Jewish State. Poch Suzara

Crucified Dead On The Cross

After he had been crucified dead on the cross, Jesus managed to resurrect himself back to life to be the Savior of the world. Sadly however, Jesus forgot to resurrect the dead level of intelligence of the dummies who had him crucified dead on the cross over nothing and for the sake of accomplishing nothing. Thus, as the Savior of the world Jesus was a failure! He miserably failed to save the world. Even the faithful believers on these pages are in desperate need of a Savior today! Poch Suzara

Curiosity Killed The Cat

Curiosity killed the cat. At least before the cat died, it was curious. What's shameful are those higher forms of animals, and with college diploma at that. I know many of them have already died and not one that I know of was ever curious. Poch Suzara

Success in Life

It is quite easy to be a success in life, specially if your ambition were only to do with licking the rear of others. It is much harder, however, to be a failure in life. Specially if your ambition were more to do with licking the fear in others. Poch Suzara

Atheistic Responsibility

There are those of us who have learned to love and enjoy not only the maturity, but especially the responsibility of atheism. For Christ's sake, why should we go back to the childish gullibility behind the irresponsibility that continues to grace the immaturity of theism always at variance with humanism? Poch Suzara

My Precious Mind

I have already gifted half of my soul to God in hell and the other half I have also gifted it to the devil in heaven. I hope those two supernatural morons are already satisfied with my generosity. Both should now stop fighting each other over winning my silly soul. Meanwhile, never will I ever again surrender to divinity or to deviltry the most priceless treasures I possess in this world: My most precious mind. Poch Suzara

The Love of Money

The bible says: "The love of money is the root of all evil." Sadly, Jesus Christ never addressed this issue. Thus, both in the Christian and non-Christian world today, the love of money keeps everybody not only in an evil mess due to the lack of it, but those who have tons of money, they only continue to be selfish, greedy, stupid, and insane.
In the meantime, in the Philippines. the only Christian country in Asia, if you steal small, you go to jail. Steal big, however, and you automatically qualify to be a candidate for Congress. Poch Suzara

The Free Mind

Rree will is great; fortunately, the good will is greater; but more fortunately, however, is the free mind. It is the greatest. There is absolutely nothing quite like it in all of nature. Poch Suzara

The Difference

It is easy to tell the difference between a moron and an idiot. An idiot can easily be frightened with ideas. A moron, however, from the cradle to the grave, has always been afraid of his own thought even if he has been thoughtless for most of his life. Poch Suzara

According To The Bible

According to the bible: "The dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward." Eccls 9:5. Sadly, however, among my classmates in De la Salle Colege, inspite the fact that they are not yet dead, they still love to know not anything and they expect to be rewarded for it happily in the next life in heaven. Poch Suzara

If Jesus Christ Had Only

If Jesus Christ had only sacrificed himself to make amends not for the sins of man, but precisely for the sins of God; indeed, to have asked the human race to forgive divine disgrace, Christianity today need not have to believe that God made man in His own image and likeness. Poch Suzara

My atheist brother-in-law

My atheist brother-in-law was dying of cancer. A distant relative called me on the phone to inquire if he already turned back and now believes in God? I said: "No, I hope not. God's already killing him and you expect the poor fellow to love, worship, and adore his killer?" Poch Suzara

Medical Science

I am more physically encouraged by medical science than I am spiritually inspired by medical religion. In medical religion, I get no help for an erection. In medical science, after an erection, it even sees to it that I enjoy a resurrection. Poch Suzara

The Key to Economic Growth

The key to economic growth is knowledge. Knowledge not based upon the unknowable like in religion; but knowledge precisely based upon the observable and therefore knowable like in science. Poch Suzara

In La Salle Grade School

When we were kids in La Salle grade school, we were taught to believe that during the Lenten Season it is a sin to eat meat on Good Fridays. However, for the sake of earning eternal happiness in the next life, it was a virtue for many of us to think like cows and live like pigs during the rest of the year. Poch Suzara

In This Country

In this country we all enjoy the freedom to have faith. We do not, however, enjoy also the freedom to have a conscience. Nobody has a conscience in this faith-soaked country. Is there hope for the Philippines? Yes, there is hope; but we must first discard the Vatican trash and Hollywood garbage out of our sick culture. Poch Suzara

I Respect People

I respect people for what they think as individuals. I find it despicable, however, to respect a group of people indoctrinated in school during childhood days to gullibly believe in a lot of sacred lies. Poch Suzara

Local Newspaper Publishers

Local newspaper publishers and columnists have not given up suggesting to readers that the Philippines can be a great nation again. This is fine and dandy if, in fact, the Philippines was once, in the past, a great nation. The Philippines is still a land of missed opportunties, if not the land of lesser evils. Its democracy is still under a theocracy. The government is mostly composed of cheap officials always ready the sell to the foreigners what's left of the Pearl of the Orient. Poch Suzara

The Thing About The Atheists

The thing about the atheists is that they are far more conversant with bible contents than most Christians are. For my part, if I did not discover the lies, inconsistencies, contradictions, absurdities, obscenities, and cruelties written in the bible, I never would have lost my faith in God. And that would have been my life's greatest tragedy - not to have ended up as a happy and devout atheist that I
am today and tomorrow and for eternity to come. Poch Suzara

According to DENR

According to the Department of Energy and Natural Resources, the Marikina river, San Juan river, Navotas-Malabon, and Tullahan river have all already died. Fortunately, we Filipinos do not care for dead rivers. What's more important to us are the dead ideas behind our dead values and dead beliefs that's keeping our culture dead? Poch Suzara

College Professors

College professors in the Philippines are among the first to admit that the scientific way is just one of the ways of thinking. That there are others, such as the religious way. Science, however, has already junked the claims of religion, and religion in retaliation has not yet done the same with the findings of science. In fact today, religion is in a very poor situation desperately trying to save its face. It is seeking an accommodation with science. Well, can science and religion reconcile? Yes! They can! But religion must first reconcile with other religions. Science knows that such a merger is not possible as religions, since for the love of God up there, are too busy hating and fighting each other down here. Poch Suzara

How Sad of God

How sad of God in the Garden of Eden. He had more on the side of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil than he was on the side with the education for Adam and Eve. Both deprived of childhood years without loving parents to guide them. Is it possible that God ignored the opportunity to give our first parents a healthy kind of upbringing in order to give the devil a head start in the business of evil for the future of the human race? Poch Suzara

Poverty Kills

As a matter of plain truth we are all poor as we all suffer from poverty of the worst kind: the poverty of the human mind and heart. Thanks to our sick system of education that taught us to believe that life after death with God in heaven up there is much better than life after birth in our country down here. In the meantime, Poverty kills. Specially children - horribly. One of the simplest, most effective way to help lift a population out of poverty is to give women total and educated freedom to control their own reproductive fertility. Indeed, when fertility indicates that a child is likely to be the result of sex and that child will be born under a life of suffering and little joy, the choice is clear: allow the child to remain in nothingness. No child should be forced to live in a sick world of pain and suffering and early death to please the greedy stupid morons behind the priesthood industry. In the meantime, overpopulation is forcing an incredible rise in malnutrition, illiteracy, political mediocrity, and social insanity. Poch Suzara

The Bible Says

The bible says: "Dust art thou and unto dust thou shalt return." Well, if God made man in his own image and likeness, then God must be made of dust too. And to think that we have not ceased praying daily to a dusty God to save our dusty little souls to end up in dusty kingdom of heaven. Poch Suzara

The Power of Prayer

We Filipinos are, indeed, the Sick Man of Asia. For centuries, we enjoyed the colonial mentality. Today, in the world of modern science and technology, we are enjoying even more the loser's mentality. Thanks to the power of prayer and theology, in the race to achieve the higher standard of living and thinking, our Asian neighbors are way ahead of the Philippines - the only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century Poch Suzara

Children of God

If we were all children of God, then Jesus was not the Son, but the Grandson of God, as Mary, his mother, was the daughter of God. Jesus had the power to perform miracles. He made the blind see, the deft hear, the lame walk. He multiplied loaves of bread to feed the multitude. He could walk on water, change water into wine; cured leprosy, and even raised the dead back to life. Curiously enough, not a single one of those grateful individuals appeared in court to testify that Jesus was a miracle healer; not a trouble-maker. Even his own apostles abandoned Jesus. They all disappeared out of sight. Nevertheless, crucified on the cross, Jesus cried out: "My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?" Jesus could have been more honest with himself if He had instead cried out: "My God, as your only grandson on this earth, this crucifixion business is a little bit absurd. How can I die to save the world today if I will be able to resurrect myself back to life tomorrow?" Jesus was indeed a failure. His mission to destroy the devil did not materialize. The devil is still alive and quite a success living in the only Christian country in Asia. The devil continues to inspire the Philippine government to solve problems of the nation with prayers. Indeed, the devil must be so proud of his achievements; especially since it is turning out more obvious that God is not omni-present, but only always omni-absent and always holding the hands of Jesus not to get lost again. Poch Suzara

The Day The Philippines

The day the Philippines became the only Christian country in Asia, it ceased to be a part of Asia and we Filipinos ceased to be Asian. Indeed, we Filipinos loved and still do love to be identified only as devout and faithful Christians. We have been educated to ignore our Asian roots.Poch Suzara

Degraded Women

According to the bible, degraded women are best left degraded. Indeed, the bible authors blamed Eve as the primary source of all evils, responsible for the Fall of Man through Eve's Original Sin. As if there never was the Original Creator. The story of Eve is the corner stone of Christianity. Without the Doctrine of the Fall, the whole Christian superstructure collapses together with the devil. And how wonderful of God to have given the devil a major role to play in the Christian scheme for eternal salvation. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Neither the Church Nor Government

Neither the church nor the government would lift a finger to assist women with unwanted pregnancy; yet, both the church and the government would not ceased dominating the reproductive system of millions of women in this poverty-stricken, spiritually poor, and morally bankrupt only Christian country in Asia. Poch Suzara

As a Little Boy

As a little boy then, each time my parents or grandparents brought me inside a cathedral, fear overwhelmed me. As I got to be older and I fell in love with the search of the truth, I found out why: A Cathedral is a monument to human stupidity
as erected by the everlasting inspiration of deviltry. Poch Suzara

Scientific Knowledge

Scientific knowledge cannot be denied. It can only be proved; or, as the case may be - disproved. However the case may be, scientific knowledge is always subject to improvement. The theologians, foolishly, denied that the earth rotates around the sun; denied that it is billions of years old; and denied that man evolved from other apes. Hell, the theologians even deny that science could cure diseases such as tuberculosis, measles, or even appendicitis. Poch Suzara

Anti-nature of Religion

The ideas of religion are anti-life, anti-human, anti-peace, anti-female, and anti-pleasure. Such religious ideas must be analyzed, dissected, challenged, and discarded in the public intellectual arena. Then once defeated, dead and buried, and no more of a burden,it should give mankind a chance to grow up and mature and stop hating and killing each other specially often in God's name. Poch Suzara

The Poor Filipino

The Filipino is poor as a people and bankrupt as a nation. This is caused by religion and superstition on the one hand; and the lack of science and the scientific way of thinking on the other. In this God-forsaken country, we Filipinos believe that ignorance is bliss. This we believe because we cannot help but be proud of our spiritual poverty, moral bankruptcy, and the way we enjoy social insanity in our country. Poch Suzara

I do not feel Guilty

I do not feel guilty nor do I fear punishment of eternal damnatio for not believing in God. Like everyone else, I too was born an atheist; and whether we like it or not, we shall all die oneday as an atheist. It is impossible to believe in the existence of anything after we, ourselves, have no more existence. Poch Suzara

The Primary Aim

The primary aim of most schools, colleges, and universities in the Philippines is to assist students grow up physically; but not to grow intellectually. In this way, there will be no one to upset the system of corruption going on economically, politically, and morally in this God-forsaken, faith-soaked country. Poch Suzara

The Sciences

the sciences have taken over total control in the advancement of human knowledge. The poor theologians of God, lost and confused as ever, are left behind holdng on to a bag filled with nothing but worthless intuition, if not the absurdities of superstition. Poch Suzara

Our Stupid Politicians

Instead of being anti-poverty by way of anti-stupidity, our stupid politicians would rather pretend at being pro-poor in order to get elected or re-elected into government office. Instead of nourishing the joys of liberty, our stupid politicians would rather enjoy the liberty to promote stupidity and poverty. Poch Suzara

Atheism and Humanism

The atheist giving atheism a bad name by ignoring his sense of passion and compassion, his sense of humanity, is not a genuine atheist at all. After all, atheism and humanism amount to one and the same realism as created by heroism behind ameliorism. Poch Suzara

I have More Respect

I have more love and respect for the irreligious animals than I have love and respect for the religious man. Irreligious animals do not hate not kill each other over some silly faith. The Jews and the Christians and the Muslims have not ceased hating and killing each other in God's name and for his glory. Poch Suzara

Our leaders in government are no leaders. They are more like fugitives always running far away from reason. And what is the point of reason if it were not true and useful. Poch Suzara

The Chosen People of God

The Jews are the Chosen people of God. The Americans are the Brazen people of God. The Eskimos are the Frozen people of God. The Arabs are the Broken people of God.

What Does it Matter

Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour the Lord is coming. Matt. 24:42. Well, after 2,000 years or 730,000 days or 17,520,000 hours of waiting, not to mention the billions upon billions of people who have already lived and died on this earth, what does it matter now if the Lord does not arrive at all?

Feed Your Doubt

Instead of feeding your faith by starving your doubt, what is more beneficial is to starve your faith by feeding your doubt. Doubt, not faith, generates the power of reason behind the power of knowledge. Poch Suzara

Distinctive Human Quality

The most distinctive of human quality is the need to find out, the need to know, and the need to understand. It is exactly what science and the scientific way of thinking are all about. Poch Suzara

According to Science

According to science, there exist about 20 billion different kinds of bacteria, germs, and viruses inside my body eating up my vital organs for their breakfast, lunch, and dinner. These little creatures will eventually kill me oneday. In the meantime, for me to believe that my body is a temple of God is pure hokum, if not adulterated bunkum. Poch Suzara

Catholic Doctrne

According to a Catholic doctrine Free Will is God's greatest gift to man; and yet, in Catholic schools, the first thing that's destroyed is free will.This is by way of obedience to authority; amen to hierarchy; and submit always to divinity via Catholic theology. As matter of fact, the greatest gift of nature to man is not his free will, but his free mind. At any rate, instead of free will, let's have, instead, for one another - the good will. Poch Suzara

We Honor God

We honor God our father when we live like his son! This is pure hokum! Who wants to live like a Jew if one were born a Filipino in the Philippines? Moreover, whatever happened to honoring our own father and grandfathers and great-grandfathers. We are more related to them by blood than we are related to a Son of God. Poch Suzara

Evil of religion

An evil can never be isolated because evils are all closely related to each other. Take the evil of religion. It could never have existed without the evil of fear that gave birth to the evil of ignorance which in turn gave birth to the evil named Satan who gave birth to the evils of hate and war among the Jewish, Christian, and the Muslim religion. Poch Suzara

Jesus Died On The Cross

Jesus died on the cross to save mankind from sin. It does not matter who killed him. What's important is that the Jews in cahoots with the Romans did play their role in getting him crucified on the cross. Otherwise, Jesus would not have accomplished his mission to destroy the devil. I say, the Jews and the Romans should be given postumously an academy award for their excellent performance. Of course this award will only make sense as soon as Jesus finally saves the world. It is still in a mess. Thanks to the existence of the devil whom Jesus utterly failed to destroy. Poch Suzara

Bertrand Russell

In his long career Bertrand Russell touched little which he has not upset. For example, as a mathematician, he turned mathematics upside down. As a logician, he turned logic inside out. As a philosopher, he frankly admitted that he had not found the truth though he devoted seventy years of his life in search of it. For my part, I have learned to love and respect Bertrand Russell because, among other things, he was also a sceptic, rationalist, defender of scientific rationalism, and he certainly inspired in me to hate war and the H-Bomb. Russell once admitted that: "No one is perfect, and we should never be bothered by the fact that we are not perfect." Hell, I didn't know it then; but that's exactly what I tried to impart to my teachers then in school at De La Salle college. And to prove I was wrong, they all agreed to have me expelled out high-school. Poch Suzara

History and Philosophy

History is written not by the losers, but by the winners in war or conquest. It proves that winners can be liars too. There are perhaps exceptions. For example, the historians of philosophy. They have no motive to withhold the truth since in philosophy no philosopher has yet to discover the truth. Poch Suzara

Jesus Could Violate

Jesus could violate natural laws. However, since he was so engrossed with his power to perform miracles, he totally forgot to perform the one and only miracle that could have made Christrianity the one and only religion in the world today. Jesus could have made not diseases, but only health contagious. Poch Suzara

Three Things

Three things - contemplation with joy, reverence, and a sense of decency seem essential to constitute any of the higher forms of admiration. I should know since I have the greatest admiration for Bertrand Russell. Poch Suzara

In the Modern World

In the modern world of science and the scientific way of thinking, anything recognizable as Christianity has become extinct except in the Philippines - the biggest Christian country in Asia. Poch Suzara

Contrary

Contrary to the basic assumptions of our times, it is not material circumstances that shape our lives, but human consciousness. Since we hardly have any, thanks to our obsolete system of education, and except for our great accomplishment in corruption as a way of life, we continue to live empty, if not broken lives accomplishing nothing as a people or even going anywhere as a nation.

In My Search For the Truth

In my search for the truth, I discovered this truth from Bertrand Russell: "Almost all the progress in the world from ancient times is attributable to science and the scientific temper; almost all the major ills are attributable to religion." I entirely agree. Poch Suzara

What is so Saintly

What is so saintly about turning the other cheek, if one knows that each time he does so, he is piling up greater heavenly rewards, while the one who strikes is earning his rewards in hell? In the meantime, there were those frowning and those smiling among the dead whom Jesus raised back to life. Those frowning back to life were already enjoying eternal salvation in heaven, and those smiling back to life were already those suffering eternal damnation in hell. As the song goes: "what's going on?" Poch Suzara

There is only one Teacher

There is only one teacher that I have learned to love and respect: Bertrand Russell. He never said to me: "Do this, because if you do not, I will give you failing grades." The exact words my Catholic teachers often said to me when I was a little boy acquiring a so-called "education" at La Salle grade school and high school. Poch Suzara

Selective Reading

Selective reading of sacred verses from the holy bible is often a sign not only of a rotten religion, but a reflection of intellectual and moral bankruptcy. In this connection, each time you see a bible in any home, you can be sure it is never read as a whole book. Poch Suzara
