If God is Dead

“If God is dead then everything is permissible” is not an argument against a dead God, but an argument against a living God! Why does God allow the sinner to enjoy his sins and then enjoy even more not only the forgiveness of sin by God, but also enjoy the offer of paradise in the hereafter? Poch Suzara

The Bible

We are a nation of bible believers. Not bible readers. It is not parts of the bible we reject, but parts of the bible we accept – that makes us the Sick Man of Asia.

The bible tells us to have faith. But faith means having the free will to choose to avoid knowing what is true.

The bible tells us to love our neighbors and to love our enemies. Well, our neighbors and our enemies are one and same people we work with; vote for; trade and do business with; and indeed, neighbors and enemies together are with us during mass on Sundays! Poch Suzara

God's Children

Why should God tell parents how to raise their children when he had drowned His own? Oh yes, the existence of God might still be a mystery. One thing, however, is no longer a mystery: in this world, God loves the dead more than He gives a hoot about the living. Poch Suzara

Born-Again Atheist

Each and every single one of us, without exception, are born atheist. No child ever comes out of mother’s womb singing “Glory be to God,” or praying the rosary? A Born-Again Christian is a childish myth! More truth to tell, however, is that after that dreadful theism has been shoved into our innocent minds, we can only be born-again atheist! Poch Suzara

Our Historical Trouble

Our historical trouble is that we have not prayed hard enough? We have not prayed daily enough, weekly enough, monthly enough, yearly enough, and centuries enough? We need to pray more? Let us be more active and consistent with our prayers? In fact, our parents, grandparents, great grandparents did not pray as much they should have prayed?

If we could only devote more time, more energy, more resources, more ways and more means, and indeed devote more faith in the power of prayer, then and only then will God provide. In the meantime, we Filipinos continue to be famous as the Sick Man of Asia. Poch Suzara

Our System of Education

In our schools, colleges, and universities are teachers and professors who have proven themselves incapable of deeper learning.

Indeed, under our system of education, the search of the truth is a considered something of a sacred confusion, or a holy delusion. Not a matter of, or for, - social, political, or economic reconstruction. Poch Suzara

Our Sick Society

We do not struggle with sin and grime. We struggle with suffering and crime. Our Fall have nothing to do with Original sin. Our spiritual poverty as a people and moral bankruptcy as a nation have only to do with Christianity – a religion founded on lies, deception, and mendacity. Look how Catholic schools, colleges and universities continue to be in the business of frightening Catholic students to believe that love of God is far more beneficial than love of country or love of fellow-citizens.Poch Suzara

Silly and Childish

If we hope to remedy the ills of our sick society the first thing we must do is to discard the habit of silly prayers. Then and only then can we begin to grow as a people and develop as a nation.Otherwise, praying for the Second Coming of the Lord to straighten out the mess of our sick society has always been a sick biblical joke.Poch Suzara

Quezonian Prophecy

I prefer a government run like hell by Filipinos, to a government run like heaven by Americans” declared President Manuel Quezon decades ago. As if it made any difference to the millions of the losers and the failures living under sub-human conditions in this God-forsaken country! Poch Suzara

Why Bother as We are Sick Man

All the social improvements, economic progress, political developments, and religious miracles; not to mention the lies and deception and delusions and other historical confusions happening daily to Filipinos in the Philippines are considered blessings from God from heaven. It only proves one thing: - we are, indeed, the Sick Man of Asia!

But then again, why should we Filipinos bother to grow as a people and to mature as
a nation since we have been educated to believe that God will provide for us; if not Jesus, the son of God, will soon return to remedy the ills of our sick society. Poch Suzara

God's Love

If God does not love the Jews, His chosen people, why should God love the Filipinos, His Christian people? The difference between a Christian and a Jew is that the former is a lunatic, the latter idiotic. But then again what can be expected of a creator who, at the same time, has always been both diabolic and angelic? Ah, let’s not ignore the Muslim – bombastic, drastic, and fanatic! Poch Suzara

Our World

Our world will be destroyed not by science but by religion. Even the wild animals whom no one can accuse of being Muslims or Christians or Jews will be destroyed. Such is the power of madness - the gift from the gods. As to why the gods are mad at our world - your opinon is just as stupid as everyone elses. Poch Suzara

Only in the Philippines

I want to be a doctor when I grow up so I can be a nurse. I want to be a librarian when I grow up. I don’t have to read books. I Just need to put them in shelves or pull them out of shelves and get wages for my intellectual work.” Poch Suzara

Prayer Works

Prayer works. But only for Catholics. Ask Erap. He prayed to God for pardon. Our Catholic president GMA with God's approval pardoned ex-president Erap for his crimes against the Republic of the Philippines.Too bad Adam and Eve were not Catholics. Nobody told them about the power of prayer. The original Sin need not have given birth to Catholicism. Poch Suzara

Free Will

Free will - God’s greatest gift to man. But if you have the free will to be a Christian or a Jew or a Muslim¸ then there is either something wrong with God or something wrong with free will. For my part, I’d rather have good will and wish the Christian and the Jews and the Muslim to stop hating and stop killing each other so we can all helped establish peace on earth and goodwill to all men. To count on God for the creation of world peace and sanity has always proved foolish. Poch Suzara

The Customer

The customer is always right. Not, however, according to God with Adam and Eve. They were not only wrong, but humiliated also, stripped off their dignity and self-respect as God’s first customers. Poch Suzara

My Kind of Prayer

“God give us all we need so that we can give those in need.” Deut. 15:7-11.
Here is my kind of prayer: “God, never mind giving to me. Just give to them. After all, yours is the power, the kingdom, and the glory. Lord, I have nothing and nothing is more than enough for me! Poch Suzara

Cycle of Life

A man gives love in order to get sex. A woman gives sex in order to get love. In either case, the result is a child born and raised and taught to believe not in the biological union between a male sperm and a female egg, but only to believe what the religious morons have been teaching for centuries - that God made man in his own image and likeness. Poch Suzara

Right or Wrong

Perhaps, no one is right or wrong. Each is simply on a different level of consciousness. Unfortunately, most people have not been educated enough to expand or to increase their level of consciousness. They have only been indoctrinated to carry on in life by being thoughtless, if not mindless. Poch Suzara

Fear

As fear become rampant people turn to God. Unfortunately, there is an increasing sense even among the religious morons themselves that the word GOD now rings with a hollow emptiness. At any rate, it is good to know that most Christians are beginning to wake up to the fact that Christianity came into being first and foremost as a death-conquering religion. Sadly, however, achieved with sacred lies and other biblical promises. Such that death is not the end of life, but the beginning of a new chapter in life.

Now modern physicists have scientifically dissolved into nothing the materiality of matter. A body, in our case the human body is, in the ultimate analysis, nothing but a system of bundled energy – a thing that can never be created or destroyed. Poch Suzara

Most Men

Most men love to play the game of cards, balls, clubs, rackets, boards, suits, sticks, wheels, rods, bows and arrows and guns.

With me, the mental freak that I am, rightly or wrongly, I only love to play with ideas. Ideas, no doubt, have tremendously encouraged me to examine my own life as I found it worth living.

The love of playing with ideas seemed more glorious, incomparably, than the lust of the ways of the flesh and the dross of the world. For my part, I hardly wanted millions. I only wanted answers to my questions! “Seek ye first the good things of the mind,” Bacon admonishes us, “and the rest will either be supplied or its loss will not be felt.” For me, mental health is the best kind of wealth. Poch Suzara

It is Understandable

It is understandable why Jesus never lived in a happy home and never enjoyed love and affection from either of his parents during his upbringing. After all, his father never married his mother.

Jesus said, and I could hardly blame him: “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.” Poch Suzara

What's Evil about our Government

What’s evil about our government? The high officials! They seek nothing except wealth, power, and glory for themselves. When they do, however, achieve “success in life,” they only continue to be selfish, greedy, stupid, insecure and socially insane.

What our country needs now is not only love and the greater knowledge about the nature of love, in all its complexity, especially what it really means to love a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Poch Suzara

More On Death

Here’s Bertrand Russell – my intellectual father. Russell wrote about his own death. He inspired in me fearlessly, if not with equanimity, to face my own death one day: “I believe when I die I shall rot, and nothing of my ego will survive. I am not young, and I love life. But I should scorn to shiver with terror at the thought of annihilation. Happiness is nonetheless true happiness because it must come to an end, nor thought and love lose their value because they are not everlasting.” Poch Suzara

Death

I do not know what’s the fuss about death. That it is sudden, extended, lengthened, elongated, stretched, or otherwise surprising. But the day we are born is the day we begin dying. In terms of a thousand years, human life is but a day long. In terms of a hundred thousand years, human life is but an hour long. In terms of a million years long, human life is but a minute long. In terms of a hundred million years, human life is split second, flash in the pan, wink of an eye - long. Will Durant, one of my most admired thinker in the intellectual community, wrote about it with courage and dignity: “And yet, what if it is for life’s sake that we must die? In truth, we are not individuals; and it is because we think ourselves such that death seems unforgivable. We are temporary organs of the race, cells in the body of life; we die and drop away that life may remain young and strong. If we were to live forever, growth would be stifled and youth would find no room on the earth. Death, like style, is the removal of rubbish, the excision of the superfluous.” Poch Suzara

Change Our Society

We may not be able to change our society. We can, however, change the society of a child by preventing its existence. Not by abortion, but simply by prevention. Especially if such a child were going to be born unloved, unwanted, and unneeded by parents who neither have the gumption nor the comprehension to realize that to bring forth children into this world is not a matter of divinity. It is more about replenishing the earth with humans with rights to human dignity. Poch Suzara

College-Educated Women

It is incredible how college-educated women of this country are much more at home with the Communion of saints and sinners than they are conversant with the Communion of thinkers and philosophers. And yet, they feel no need of more lecture or exposure to new knowledge - the rare opportunity to interact with it freely as a matter for intellectual growth and maturity? Poch Suzara

Poverty

You may own the titles to kingdoms of the world. But unless you discover the simple pleasures of learning and the simple joys of understanding through the habit of critical reading and thinking you will only continue to be the mediocre victim of poverty, especially the worse kind: the poverty of the mind. Poch Suzara

Life and Death

How can we know of death if we do not know of life? Now, for the sake of argument, let us assume there is life after death. Where in the universe could such a life be found? Consider our cosmic insignificance: Our entire world is only one planet circling one star in a galaxy that contains about 400 billions planets and stars and is itself only one of the several hundred billion galaxies. After death, how exactly or by what means of locomotion do we travel to any of those worlds to start enjoying eternal salvation; or, for that matter, to be start suffering with eternal damnation?

In the meantime, the bible admits: “The living know that they shall die, but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.” Poch Suzara

Conversation With God

God: “I created man and woman with free will and next to the promise of immortal life, free will is my greatest gift to you.” . . . Poch: “Oh God, that’s wonderful. But why did you create Satan also gifted with a free will? Satan even possessed the power to transform himself into a Talking Serpent – more subtil than any beast of the field in your biblical paradise!” Poch Suzara

Impossible With Men

Things impossible with men are possible with God. – Luke 18:27. So, how come it was never impossible with men to have created a God in their own image and likeness? In fact, I never found it impossible to have created for myself not a God, but a Goddess. Poch Suzara

UST and HARVARD

Harvard University already produced more than 48 Nobel Laureates. These are men whose reputation for commitment to humane values and to the pursuit of the truth may be challenged. Nevertheless, Nobel Prize Winners have made authentic contribution to science and to human civilization.
Nobel prizes won by the faculty members of University of San Thomas? None yet. To think UST is older than Harvard by some 50 years. UST, however, has already produced thousands of priests and nuns who, during these past centuries are still preaching to Filipinos to love not this world, neither the things that are in this world! Poch Suzara

Christ's Love

Christ’s love creates unity out of diversity. Phil Star 9/29/2007.
I ask: where is Christ’s love for the unity among Filipinos and for the unity of the Philippine government? To think that no other Asian people, except the Filipinos have always rendered deep faith in Christ since Christianity conquered the Philippines some 500 years ago! Poch Suzara

More On Religious Morons

Religious morons would never, understandably, attempt to think for themselves on life’s greatest question on God and religion. They would rather let other religiously superior morons figure out the theological mess for them. Poch Suzara

William Mckinley 1843-1901

On his decision as President of the United States of America to claim the Philippine Islands for the United States in 1899, Mckinley said:

“There was nothing left for us to do but to take them all, and educate the Filipinos, and uplift and civilize and Christianize them, and by God’s grace do the very best we could for them, as our fellowmen for whom Christ also died.”

Mckinley must have been a religious moron who seriously read and clearly understood bible messages. In Luke 19:27. Christ said: “But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them for me.” That’s exactly what the Americans did to Filipinos in the Philippines in Christ’s name.

Poor Mckinley, he did not know that the Filipinos were already enjoying the failure of values and beliefs under the success of Christianity in the Philippines since the 16th century. Poch Suzara

If Jesus Were a Jew

f Jesus were a Jew born in Nazareth, why didn’t the Jews know of him? Search all the ancient Jewish literature. It yields no evidence of any historical Jesus. In fact, if a man could perform fantastic miracles like raising himself back to life from death – it will be recorded in world history. No such historical record exists. Poch Suzara

Why Are There Atheists

There are atheists because there are so many religions each hating and killing the other down here in God’s name and for his glory up there. I am an atheist because I cannot believe in a God who is cold-blooded in perfection and so engrossed in self-admiration and so proud of human wars and annihilation. Poch Suzara

Hazing and Praying

Hazing is senseless, brutal and barbaric. There is no place for it in a decent and a sane society.
So how come praying which is just as selfish, greedy, stupid, and insane always has a place in our sick society? Indeed, if prayer works, if someone out there listens to our prayers, how come we only need to utter more prayers? And if that were not enough, to utter even more prayers! Poch Suzara

Think Tank

A so-called “Think Tank” is proposing to add a 5th year to high school, because it claims that the 10 years of primary and high school education are not enough to prepare students for college.
What a bunch of morons. Instead of eliminating stupid subjects such as religion that have no bearing at all with reality and instead teach more science and the scientific way of thinking - students can succeed with less number of years in acquiring genuine education to play a serious part to get this country really growing, maturing, and developing. Poch Suzara

What's Wrong with the Philippines

We are a nation of boys and girls, not of intellectually matured men and mentally strong women. We are a nation devoid of human dignity and self-respect... Millions of Pinoys are proud to identify themselves as college educated Christians. None are proud to say that they are college-educated Rizalian. What’s wrong with the Philippines? To find out, you need not travel far. Just visit any school, college, or university near your place! They are not educational but commercial - enterprises. They are places where students learn first and foremost to have more faith in Jesus – the Savior of the world... Indeed, they are places where millions of young Filipinos learn to have faith not in the power of knowledge, but in the power of prayer. Jose Rizal courageously wrote about this horror, and yet only a handful of Filipinos are fully aware of the Rizalian message. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

College-Educated Economists

The college-educated economists employed in our government have yet to publicly acknowledge a simple economic truth: Economic growth can only be a reality if there were no reckless population growth. Indeed, more mouths to feed eats up and swallows the economic pie faster than it can be made to grow bigger and longer and wider. Poch Suzara

Who is a Moron

Any college educated Christian who keeps active and alive the lies, myths, misconceptions and distortions wrapped around Jose Rizal's life, works, and writings is a moron; especially if he does it for the glory of Jesus in the Philippines. I should know. I was one hell of a moron during my school days at De La Salle University.

Of course, there are morons by degrees. The highest are those who believe that RP-Rizal forum was established to help Rizal admirers learn more about Rizal’s life, works, and writings and why he was executed as a great thinker but that he retracted, carried a rosary in his hand, wore a scapular around his neck, kissed the Jesus crucifix and died as a repentant Catholic. In the meantime, the books written by Rizal remain as banned books in all Catholic schools, colleges, and universities in the Philippines. Poch Suzara

Deadly Proverbs

Trust Jehovah with all your heart and do not lean upon own understanding. Proverbs 3:5. Discipline your children, and … they will give delight to your heart. Proverbs 29:17. How, for Jehovah’s sake, will we ever be able to understand the values of inner discipline if we do not lean upon the beauty of our own heart to shape the beauty of the heart and mind of our own children? Especially to learn how not to be a disgrace, but only to be a grace to the human race? Poch Suzara

Newspaper Headline

Campaign to save hungry children stepped up. But unless there’s also a the bigger campaign to step up making birth control and family planning a stark reality, there will be a never-ending supply of hungry children living under subhuman conditions in the Philippines.
In 1947 our population was at 18 million. Sixty years later, today in 2007 our population is at 88 million. I ask those newspaper columnists who are still insisting that there is no population growth problem in the Philippines: how have we enjoyed growth, maturity, and development as a nation? It seems clear enough our economic pie, instead of getting bigger, has only been getting smaller. Again, I ask: If God so loved the world, how has He loved the Philippines considering his only Son Jesus is more loved, worshipped, and adored here than anywhere else in the whole of Asia today? Poch Suzara

Bible Readers

Bible readers have yet to figure out why God gifted the Talking Serpent with a free will. Just exactly like those he gifted to Adam and Eve in paradise. Due to free will our first parents ended up punished by God. The Talking Serpent though cursed by God nevertheless ended up scot-free with his free will. The crawling animal, however, is still alive today in the shape of a supernatural moron. Popularly known as the devil! Quite at home and happy existing in the Philippines and deeply involved in its system of education. Poch Suzara

Atheists have No Need to Be in Foxholes

That there are no atheists in foxholes is not an argument against the atheists. It is an argument in favor of foxholes. We atheists do not kill other atheists for not believing in God. We atheists therefore have no need to dig foxholes. Poch Suzara

Foreign Investment

Any one can see that there far more security guards posted everywhere in our sick society than there are policemen posted anywhere. Indeed, security guards are posted to guard banks, money changer outlets, schools, universities, restaurants, coffee shops, shopping malls, jewelry stores, pawnshops, churches, cathedrals, residential villages, hotels, motels, government buildings, office buildings, residential condominiums, beach resorts, movie theaters, sports complex, newspaper headquarters, airports, harbors and piers, even the palace of the Archbishop of Manila as well protected by security guards.
Now which foreign investor would be interested to risk investing capital in this God-fearing, faith-soaked, corrupt-ridden, crime infested, and only Catholic country in Asia? Of course the foreign criminals would be happy to come here to be among his peers. Poch Suzara

My Aim in Life

The true division of humanity is between those few who think and those many who believe. My aim is to increase the number of those who think, and decrease the number of those who believe. Indeed, to always be on the side of human liberty that enhances universal felicity.
I'd rather see a world populated with intelligent men without religion, than see a world populated with religious men without intelligence. Indeed, religion has had thousands of years of opportunities to change and improve our world. It is time for human intelligence to take over. Poch Suzara

Pray to Mary

To pray to Jesus as God, or to pray to God as Jesus seems to me a mockery against human decency. Isn’t it more than enough that we already pray daily to Mary, the Mother of God, to pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death, amen? Poch Suzara

It is Religiculous

It is religiculous to believe that God can create immortal human souls, but cannot create immortal human bodies. But then again, what is there to save about the silly soul since it is already immortal and therefore deathless?
There is an explanation for everything. If there were things, however, that cannot be explained, then such things are not worth believing. Poch Suzara

The Cry Baby

“Even when I walk through a dark valley, I feel no harm. For you are at my side, your rod and staff give me courage…” Psalm 23:3. These could only be the childish cries of a cry baby. One who has been taught to believe that superstitions and myths are facts, so that as a faithful believer, the clergy of his religion has full control over his life’s purpose. The control comes under the guise of “god” developed out of fear, continues to exist in fear, and ruled by fear. This fear is god itself: fear of the unknown, fear of death, fear of the mystery, fear of reality, fear of not being wanted or needed, indeed, fear of being different. In the meantime, the power of the clergy comes from nowhere except from human ignorance. Poch Suzara

On Jose Rizal

This piece is dedicated to our teachers and professors in charge to carry out Republic 1425, better known as the Rizal Law. It prescribes the teachings of Rizal’s life, works, and writings in our schools, colleges, and universities. May the youth of our land learn more to understand and appreciate this rare and great Filipino who highly valued science, the scientific way of thinking, and technology. He was executed due to, if not because of, - the power of prayer and theology. RP-Rizal Forum The main purpose of this forum has been to invite Rizal admirers to discuss the hero’s life, works, and writings. However, to learn from him not as a great man of historical creativity, intellectual activity, and especially science and philosophy; but to learn, only and sadly, something like whether Rizal was Chinese, Filipino, or Spaniard; or that if he had sired Hitler; or that Rizal was more of a catholic than he was a man of ideas, reason and logic. Indeed, to help spread more lies, myths, and childish misconceptions, if not outright distortions wrapped around him by the religious morons – the enemies of Rizal. The same evil today still pretty much in authority over the lives of millions of Filipinos. The same evil in this country promoting nothing but more of the same old biblical gimcrackery, if not ancient sacerdotal mediocrity. Rizal wrote: “We have noticed that the countries which believe most in miracles are the laziest, just as spoiled children are the most ill-mannered. Whether they believe in miracles to palliate their laziness or they are lazy because they believe in miracles, we cannot say; but the fact is the Filipinos were much less lazy before the word miracle was introduced into their language.” Today, however, thanks to the priorities of this Rp-Rizal forum – we still have nothing going for us as a nation except to wait for a miracle – especially the miracle as promised in the “New Testament.” Or, the miracle as promised by our stupid politicians - the one better known as “foreign investment.” In the meantime, other Asian countries, have be growing and maturing and developing: they have been substantiating what Rizal had been saying more than a century ago: invest time and energy in education and enlightenment via science, the scientific way of thinking, and technology. Thus far, Rizal is characterized not as an innovative thinker, scientific doubter, truth seeker, or a man of vision – a great man who tried to put intelligent beauty into this country where stupid religion has only been generating economic perversity, political stupidity and, social insanity. On this forum Rizal continues to be represented not as a thinker of great impact, or as a writer on the side of common human decency; but only as a hero killed by his enemies but that Rizal’s enemies must remain our true and faithful friends. After all, Rizal’s enemies introduce to us the concept of faith in Jesus – the Savior of the world. Hell, we Filipinos do not suffer from a social cancer. We are the victims of a religious cancer. Our blind faith sees to it that we never see it. We are proud to be college educated Christians. Who amongst us can, instead, proudly say that we are college educated Filipinos? We, the freethinkers, humanists, and heretics of this forum have had no recourse but to keep reviving, resuscitating, nay, exhuming Rizal out the cemetery to present him as one of us – alive and kicking - men of active intelligence gifted with lively analysis to assume on our shoulders what Rizal can no longer do: to continue with courage his hard struggles against the cancer called religion. The same religious disease today that’s keeping the Filipino spiritually twisted as a people and morally distorted as a nation. Look how in this 21st century, Filipinos continue to kill fellow-Filipinos. Why not? Our schools, colleges, and universities continue to teach that love of country is not that lasting; or, love of fellow-citizens is not that lasting. But that there is a better world to come after death with Jesus in heaven that will be far more everlasting. What a crock of sacred lies to keep us Filipinos aimless as a people and rudderless as a nation! Forget the Knights of Rizal. They too continue to keep the true Rizal neither graspable nor reachable to everyone. They have proven themselves more at home with the writings of Moses than they should be promoting the writings of Rizal. The aim of Rizal’s Noli and Fili was to awaken our minds and hearts as Filipinos. That we belong to our own country to love and that we must promote its welfare. The Rizal Knights, however, have not even been bothered by the historical fact that Rizal has been used, abused, and misused not just to keep the Filipino confused mentally, but also to keep the Filipino inspired to enjoy social mediocrity, political stupidity, economic perversity. We have yet to hear from individual knights of Rizal throwing their bible out the window. They are no different from those religious morons who had planned, quite surreptitiously, to get Rizal facing a firing squad. Indeed, to get Rizal dead and out of the way in order to protect the lucrative business of selling Jesus – the son of a Virgin Mary, Mother of God whom millions of Filipinos pray daily to pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death, amen!

Where or What is God

Let us assume for the sake of argument that somewhere in one of the millions of galaxies out there God exists. The real question, however, is where is the proof that God is male or female or an it? What is the proof that God is the God of the Jews or the Christians or the Muslims?
A belief is utterly worthless unless it accords with the evidence. Faith won't do because like piety, faith is just another sacred word we often use to justify our lazy mentality. Poch Suzara

Who are the Religious Morons

They are the children who have been threatened with hellfire to believe everything that’s written in the bible is the revealed truth. But the real tragedy about these misguided boys
and girls is that they grow up to be men and women who are either too twisted mentally or too distorted spiritually to seriously read or judiciously study bible messages for themselves. They just take the vicious verses and murderous chapters written in the bible for granted. Poch Suzara

It is Incredible

It is incredible how millions of people in this 21st century are willing to hate and kill each other because of disagreements over ancient literature more popularly called the Christian Bible, the Muslim Koran, and the Jewish Torah.

As an atheist, I look forward with much gusto to seeing organized religions eventually dying as victims of its own moronic immaturity, idiotic insanity, and
endless stupidity. Poch Suzara

Egg Cell

In 1724 the egg cell was discovered by science, and people began to acknowledge that woman was the co-creator of every life, contributing half of the genetic code of every child. Suddenly virgin birth episodes became biological nonsense. The church, however, especially in the Philippines, still refuses to face this scientific truth. The church, via its schools, colleges, and universities continues to teach on the dogma of the virgin birth of the Virgin Mother of God who gave birth to Jesus as a virgin child. Poch Suzara

As a Little Boy

I still remember as a little boy how I hated to go to church and how hated to go to school. They were places where one receives stupid answers, but we were never encouraged to raise intelligent questions. Indeed, churches and schools, just like colleges and universities are institutions established for one purpose only – to be in the mind control lucrative business.
Take a good look at the millions of college educated men and women of this country. They
are more at home as stupid believers, but hardly have the time nor the energy to learn to become intelligent thinkers. Poch Suzara

Great Scientific Discoveries

“Great scientific discoveries,” wrote E.O. Wilson, “are like sunrises. First they touch just the tips of a few peaks and steeples; then they illuminate the world.” I entirely agree. I must say, however, that if a few scientific discoveries have fallen into the hands of corrupt politicians in cahoots with corrupt businessmen, what the world nevertheless would need is not less, but more scientific discoveries. Indeed, thanks to the power of science, we are starting to shift our confidence from the power of divinity to the power of human technology. Poch Suzara

Woman

“The great question… which I have not been able to answer, despite my thirty years of research into the feminine soul, is what does a woman want?” Wrote Sigmund Freud.

Perhaps, he was just being facetious?

Fatherhood is impossible without motherhood – the carrier of male babies who grow up to be a men never knowing what to do or how to understand and appreciate with women.
For my part, I love and respect my mother – a woman. Without her wanting me, I never would have been born in this world. And until we all recognize the fact that women should always be the ones on top of men - we will never be able to fix the problems and troubles of our chauvinistic, if not psychotic male world. Poch Suzara

The Politics of Destruction

The only way we can destroy the politics of destruction is to destroy first the religion of destruction. After all, stupid politics is just one of the many stupid products of stupid religion.
Look at the Philippines, destructive politics in cahoots with destructive religion keep the Flipino enjoying self-deception as the foundation of its traditional way of life. Poch Suzara

Western Civilization

“The Western civilization is directing everyone toward materiality; while money, gluttony and carnal desire are made the greatest aspiration.” Ayatollah Khomeini

I agree; but what is even more evil about Western civilization is that it is the product of Judaism that gave birth to Christianity as Christianity gave birth to Islam. Meanwhile, the history of Western civilization is not about the hate and war of good against evil. It has been, and still is about the hate and war among three great evil religions of the world against each other. And for God's sake and glory in heaven too. Poch Suzara

The Bible and Multiplication Table

We only have to read and understand but once the Multiplication Table and use it creatively for the good life – one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. The Holy Bible has been read daily for centuries throughout the Western world. No one seems to understand it. In fact, our world has gotten more infested with troubles and problems due to bible disagreements. It is filled with hate and violence and bigotry as inspired by a biblical divinity in order to promote nothing except the fearful existence of deviltry. Poch Suzara

Power

The power of divinity and the power of deviltry - both come from only one source – the power of theocracy as inspired by the power of human stupidity. It is perpetually being generated by the power of infinity. Poch Suzara

Precious Mind

I said it before, I say it again: Health is the best kind of wealth. The most priceless treasure any one can possess in this world is a precious mind. Especially the kind of mind that moves on wheels scientifically, and not the kind that’s stuck on hinges ecclesiastically. In the long run, nothing else matters, nothing else counts. Unless of course just before you die and leave this world, your are able to convert your dollars into traveler’s checks and take it with you. Hello Vatican Bank! Poch Suzara

Senator Ninoy Aquino

Senator Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino, a devout Christian, days before he was assassinated, said: “The Filipino is worth dying for.” In order, however, to keep up with up with our religious beliefs and Christian values in the Philippines we, the Filipino, - had killed him.

Today, after twenty four years since Ninoy’s death, the Filipino goes on killing fellow-Filipinos; especially killing love and respect for each other, and killing love of country. All for the sake of proving how devoted we all are as faithful Christians in this only Christian country in Asia. Poch Suzara

Faith

Faith is mostly based on fear and ignorance. When the religious morons admit that they love it since their faith is being tested and strengthened by my arguments against faith, I clearly see why we are such a sick and a corrupt people struggling to exist against each other in our faith-soaked, God-forsaken - sick society. Poch Suzara

Science

Science is never dogmatic. It is always tentative. There is nothing definite as everything in science is subject to change or emendation. That is why it works. When I say, however, that science inspired me to conclude that God does not exists, I admit I am not being scientific. I am rather, and proudly so, only being quite emphatic. Poch Suzara

Agnostic and an Atheist

An agnostic is a thinking youth. An atheist is a thinking man. The evolution from ecclesiasticism to agnosticism is a simple fact. The evolution towards atheism is a greater fact. Poch Suzara

Religious Morons

In this 21st century only the religious morons believe that Jesus Christ existed some two thousand years ago. That a Supreme Being from somewhere in one of the billions of galaxies out there, managed, somehow, to impregnate a Virgin Mary to be his mother on this earth down here. It is all based upon a biblical hogwash faithfully believed by religious morons everywhere. Poch Suzara

MOSES - God's Favorite Author and Favorite General in God's Army

How did Moses know what verse and chapter to write to compose genesis since he was not present with pencil and paper to witness at first hand not only God’s creation, but also to translate God’s dialogue with himself? What about Adam and Eve? What language did they utilize to talk to each other and to talk to God? Moses was inspired by God to write genesis? Why then would God inspire Moses to write that He made light on the first day, but on the fourth day He made the sun to light up the day and made the moon to light up the night. What kind of astronomical nonsense is this from God for Moses to report? Again, Moses says that Adam live to 930 years. The was no calendar yet existing during that time. How did Moses figured the seconds in a minute, the minutes in an hour, the hours in a day, the days in a week, the weeks in a month, the months to comprise one year? God never told Moses that the earth is round and that it orbits around the sun! That it is also foolish to try and stop it from moving. Moses also wrote that Joshua commanded the sun to stop! It is really too bad that Adam and Eve never thought of killing and cooking the talking snake for dinner and have God over for dinner as their special guest. Moses would have made more sense writing biblical history developing as revealed by God to him. In the meantime, take a good look at Moses, God's favorite author and also God's favorite general in God's army: "They attacked Midian as the Lord had commanded Moses, and they killed all the men. All five of the Midianite kings—Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba—died in the battle. They also killed Balaam son of Beor with the sword. Then the Israelite army captured the Midianite women and children and seized their cattle and flocks and all their wealth as plunder. They burned all the towns and villages where the Midianites had lived. After they had gathered the plunder and captives, both people and animals, they brought them all to Moses and Eleazar the priest, and to the whole community of Israel, which was camped on the plains of Moab beside the Jordan River, across from Jericho. Moses, Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the community went to meet them outside the camp. But Moses was furious with all the generals and captains who had returned from the battle. “Why have you let all the women live?” he demanded. “These are the very ones who followed Balaam’s advice and caused the people of Israel to rebel against the Lord at Mount Peor. They are the ones who caused the plague to strike the Lord’s people. So kill all the boys and all the women who have had intercourse with a man. Only the young girls who are virgins may live; you may keep them for yourselves." Numbers 31:7-18 Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Mother Teresa

It’s great to know that for a great many years, Mother Teresa enjoyed brave moments of lucidity: She courageously doubted the existence of God.

If one were actively involved in personally assisting the poor, the sick, and the downtrodden that is really suppose to be God’s duty and responsibility, why should one not doubt the existence of God who can remedy such horrors more efficiently, if not easily with his super power as the creator of the universe?

God did not want Mother Teresa to be a robot? But are not those poor, sick and downtrodden people much better off as robots than they are miserable pieces of suffering humanity?

So Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example that you should follow his steps. 1 Peter 2:21. What have we here – a God, the Father, a God, the Son, and a God of the Holy Spirit with nothing else better to do except suffer? For what?

But then again, what kind of supernatural monsters are these Gods if they too suffer like the rest of us natural beings suffer? Poch Suzara

Reason, Not Belief

I am told by religious morons that reason, not belief, leads to correct behavior because reason comes from God, who is the light. Well, if light comes from God, what need have we for reason to guide any of us away from harmful, if not dark beliefs? Poch Suzara

God sees our Tiny World

God sees our tiny world of hate and violence, pain, suffering, illnesses, diseases, poverty, and misery. If God, however, can still afford to feel happy and contented with his creation, I can only say that such an all-loving and merciful God has got to be something of a supernatural monster, if not some divine Jerk! Now we are told God does not want to meddle by transforming this earth into a paradise because God does not want us humans to be like robots. What stupid nonsense is this argument based upon? Any intelligent child can see how we humans, if we do not have to waste time and energy solving our silly emotional problems or dealing with our stupid religious troubles, we can devote instead our time and energy traveling around the galaxies inspecting, discovering, appreciating the beauty of God’s entire creation, and not just what he had created on this tiny planet called earth. To think that the earth is so tiny in that a million earths can easily fit inside the sun. In the meantime, traveling is like reading: it is utterly useless if one cannot change; indeed, if one refuses to make the greatest discovery of all - finding one's SELF in this world. Leonardo Da Vinci wrote briefly: "One of the greatest discoveries a man makes, one of the great surprises, is to find he can do what he was afraid he could not do." As with me, in my simplicity, even during my younger years, I discovered that I should never be afraid of the power of thought. After all, for the sake of self-respect and dignity, lively intelligent thinking is always more preciious than deadly stupid believing. Poch Suzara

Who

Who determines for you to faithfully believe parts of the bible that is supposed to be written literally, or parts written metaphorically? After that biblical illusion has been determined for you, which part of your sacred delusion further determines your holy confusion? Poch Suzara

Revelation

Revelation should be something of a direct communication. Once revelation goes through a language translation, it ceases to be a first-hand communication. In fact, it becomes a second-hand information due to sacred distortion unworthy of installation for serious consideration. That God revealed himself to religious morons thousands of years ago in some foreign land has got to be some kind of biblical jactitation, and nothing to do with revelation. Poch Suzara

Lies, Distortion and Mutilation

Here is a book used in our schools. The title is Rizal’s Life, Works and Writings: their impact on our national identity. Authored by Gapino, Gonzalez, and Pineda.
Look at these religious Filipino authors mentioning on page 135 Rizal’s great interest in science and its usefulness was expressed by him in an article: “It is our duty to follow the dreary but peaceful paths of science which lead to progress and thence to the union desired by Jesus Christ and prayed for on the night of his sorrows.” (Rizal prose, page 21)

Rizal never wrote the second part of that sentence. From his Spanish writings to English, his translators maliciously distorted and if not religiously mutilated Rizal’s scientific attitude. They tried to make Rizal appear like he is some kind of a scientific dummy. This is an example of how Rizal’s written Spanish works have been mistranslated, specially by his biographer Guerrero who was more faithful and loyal to Catholic authority than he was faithful and loyal to the subject of his biography – Rizal, the courageous man of science and philosophy.

Prayerful Morons

Prayerful morons prayed for rain as the nation's water supply is getting shorter. God, being so kind and generous, answered the prayers with a typhoon that brought vast devastation drowning a few among the prayerful to death by heavy rain. Then even our Archbishop asked that we pray to God for no more rain. More rains came, however, with more devastation, especially in our farms, streets and highways. In the meantime, college educated men and women of this faith-soaked country have yet to wonder why the Philippines continue to remain as a Third World country in this already 21st century. Poch Suzara

Belief or Disbelief in God

"There is a significant difference between having no belief in a God and believing there is no God…" Michael Shermer
There is, however, a greater significance in believing that even if God exists, he is not worth believing. After all, such a God eventually puts all of us to death. He needs us dead permanently more than he wants us alive temporarily?
Happily, we atheists would rather find life beautiful and delightful to live it. It is the mark of the atheistic spirit. Atheism is all about that imperative need to think and to live. It is the exact opposite with theism – it is only about the imperative need to believe and to die. Poch Suzara

Big Bang

Let's assume that God created the big bang. Why would he start the creation of the universe in total chaos that retains neither his memory nor his personality as the God of original creativity? Indeed, why should God be the nothing instead of the something that exist? Where is God to be found? Why is he so ever busy always hiding away faceless as a nothing afraid to face mankind and its sufferings always of painful something? Poch Suzara

So God Exists, So What

If God does not exist, then everything is permitted?” On the contrary, since it is widely believed, especially by the sinners and the criminals that a God exist, therefore everything is permitted. Even Voltaire wrote: “If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him.” After all, who else but a God can forgive the stupid sins of the sinners against divinity; and, who else but a God can forgive the stupid crimes of the criminals against humanity? Indeed, some kind of a divinity is always needed to forgive even social insanity especially as spread by political, if not by religious stupidity. In the meantime, what does Big Foot, the Abominable Snowman, Loch Ness Monster, God, Jesus, Mary, Joseph and Satan have in common? All of these creatures were invented by the frightened faithfools to occupy the world of fantasy. Poch Suzara

Hitler's Holocaust

Hitler’s Holocaust - the killing of more than 6 million Jews in Europe during WW2 was quite a Sunday picnic compared to the American Holocaust. Since the landing of Columbus in 1492, more than 18 million native Indians have been killed in their continent. Their land, gold, silver, oil, and other valuable natural resources worth in the trillion of dollars were stolen away from these kind and generous people. And to think that many religious morons believed then that the most horrible part of this historical butchery was that those native Indians all died without accepting Jesus. Poch Suzara

Rizal and Paine and the Bible

Here are the words of the English-born American revolutionary Thomas Paine in his Age of Reason. I have no doubt Rizal while in Europe must have read this book with much gusto: “Whenever we read the obscene stories, the voluptuous debaucheries, the cruel and torturous executions, the unrelenting vindictiveness with which more than half the bible is filled, it would be more consistent that we called it the word of a demon than the word of God. It is a history of wickedness, that has served to corrupt and brutalize mankind; and, for my part, I sincerely detest it, as I detest everything that is cruel.” Poch Suzara

Filipinos

Filipinos are disunited, not united as a people. When we Filipinos go to live and work in other countries, we continue to be disunited, not united. That’s how fragmented we are in hatred as a people. Thanks to the teachings of Christianity since the 16th century in the Philippines everywhere that we must only love divinity up there by hating one another down here. Poch Suzara

Sick World

Only a sick person could believe in a God who does not cease to create sick children to populate our sick world. Obviously God does not exist; otherwise, if he does exist, he would, indeed, be a supernatural monster highly impressed with the multitude composed of religioul morons who worship him. Poch Suzara

Truth

It does not really matter if we disagree. It does not even matter if either of us respect the other. What is essential, however, is the truth, especially the search for it. Now in the search of the truth what is first needed is that most priceless treasure any man can own on this earth – a precious mind. Otherwise, being utterly mindless will only insure that one will only remain for the rest of one's life utterly thoughtless. Poch Suzara

Faith and Doubt

I have no respect for faith as it a product of indoctrination. I have, however, a great respect for doubt. It is what gets you an education.
Faith is all about the hatred of knowledge and wisdom. Education is all about the love of the truth, especially the search for it – the noblest of man's professions. Poch Suzara

Wars Caused By Religion

People’s range of thinking seems so short, if not trivial and banal or puny. When they are told that the history of war in this world has been mostly due to religion, they deny it by mentioning that there were quite a few wars that happened which religion played no part. It had never, however, occur to these religious morons that religion has nevertheless done nothing to ameliorate the conditions that led to local or global wars.

Look back half a century and witness the role played by the Catholic Church in aiding Nazi Germany. For example the German church opened its genealogical records to the Third Reich so that a person’s Jewish ancestry could be traced. Not a single German Catholic, including Adolf Hitler, was excommunicated for committing crimes against humanity. And Hitler often claimed he was serving God. In MEIN KAMPF HE SAYS, “Hence today I believe that I am acting in accordance of the will of the Almighty Creator: by defending myself against the Jews, I am fighting for the work of the Lord.” Poch Suzara

Prayers

During the 17th, 18th, 19th and 20th century, millions upon millions of Filipinos prayed daily to Mary, Mother of God, to pray for us sinners. Today, in this 21st century more prayers are needed. More sinners are born each and every day and night. Approximately 1.7 million sinners born yearly adding to our already population problems in the Philippines at present
In the meantime college-educated Filipinos have yet to wonder why in the race among Asian nations seeking a higher standard of living, we Filipinos are left far behind too sick even to participate in the race to seek a higher standard of thinking?
Philippine foremost historian Teodoro A. Agoncillo summarized it quite truthfully. He wrote: “Self-deception is the worst tragedy of the Filipinos as a people.” Poch Suzara

Religious Wars

As an atheist I have no need to take sides to any of the insane religious wars going on and escalating in our world today among the Christians and Muslims and Jews - hating and killing each other for the sake of a dogma, pigma, or a hogma.
I would rather be on the side of a local sanity as I am rooting for the happiness of humanity via global tranquility. I do not believe in the existence of the God of the Christians, or in the existence of Allah – the God of the Muslims, or in the existence of Yahweh – the God of the Jews. It is incredible how supernatural beings could be standing behind these great religions of the world existing to promote dreadful disgrace, instead of enhancing beautiful grace for the whole human race.

No More Jose Rizals

Filipinos have set up for Jose Rizal - monuments, statues, museums, shrines, universities, province, bridges, streets, towns, theatres, including a Forum on the internet in his name. There are even religious morons who call themselves “Knights of Rizal.”
I have yet, however, to meet one rare Filipino who has been profoundly clear and consistently courageous in carrying out what Jose Rizal could no longer do. After Rizal was arrested, incarcerated, and then executed in 1896 – who amongst us Filipinos have carried out to a higher, deeper, and wider levels his struggles against human stupidity, especially as inspired by organized religion promoting nothing but a sick and a corrupt society? Indeed, only sick men and women could believe in a sick divinity - one who does not cease creating sick children to populate a sick society! Rizal exalted the values of science and technology; not useless prayer or mindless theology. Too bad I am not a Filipino scientist like Jose Rizal was, neither am I a college educated Filipino from great universities in Europe. If I were, I would gladly have carried on the works of Jose Rizal’s ambition to remedy the evils of Christianity that’s keeping the Filipino sick, rotten, and corrupt in this eternally faith-soaked country. Poch Suzara

Jose Rizal Asked

“Where are the youth who will consecrate their golden hours, their dreams, and their enthusiasm to the welfare of their native land? Where are the youth who will generously pour out blood to wash away so much shame, so much crime, so much abomination? Pure and spotless must the victim be! Where are you youth, who will embody in yourselves the vigor of life that has left our veins, the purity of ideas that has been contaminated in our brains, the fire of enthusiasm that has been quenched in our hearts? We await you, O Youth! Come, for we await you!”

Ever since the death of Rizal by public execution in 1896, the history of the Filipino people has been the daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly struggle to deny the power of the human mind with knowledge, and to reject the beauty of the human heart with wisdom. Indeed, to be not happy, sane, and culturally constructive; but only to be unhappy, insane, and traditionally destructive.

Thanks to the faith-soaked teachers and professors in our schools, colleges, and universities – millions of Filipinos have yet to be taught how to substantiate the words of Jose Rizal: “I would like the Filipinos to be brilliant, enlightened, intelligent, and progressive.”

Sadly, even the Knights of Rizal have been busy promoting social and political insanity in this God-forsaken country. Especially for the sake of preserving in this faith-soaked 21st century – the beliefs and values of Christianity.

In this world, when one person suffers from a delusion, it is called insanity. When millions of people suffer from a delusion, in the Philippines, it is called Christianity. Poch Suzara

Rizal and Jesus

Jesus said: “Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.” Matt. 18:1-4.

Jose Rizal said: I place as a condition the education of the people so that by means of instruction and industry, our country may have a personality of her own and be worthy of her liberties.”

If we Filipinos have only been exposed to the teachings of a terrestrial Jose Rizal, and not exposed to the teachings of an extra-terrestrial Jesus Christ – in our schools, colleges, and universities – Philippine historian Teodoro A. Agoncillo need not have concluded: “Self-deception is the worse tragedy of the Filipinos as a people.” Poch Suzara

Rizal dead and Incurious

It is ludicrous how one can be so jaculiferous as to inquire who exactly were those mindless women who had Rizal executed. When his own Knights continue to keep Rizal dead and incurious, if not lugubrious with their top priorities in this 21st century Philippines? Here below is a typical ALERT messages I regularly receive from the Knights of Rizal.

Death

To a Christian, the whole idea behind Christian values and beliefs is to live a life of fear - the fear of the unknown, fear of God, fear of the devil, and the fear of death.
We atheists live a life of courage. We are not afraid of death. Why should we? Before we were born, we were already dead for billions of years. If we must die, however, we must die sober and not drunk with religious lies. Poch Suzara

Courage

It takes courage to stand up to what you believe. But it takes far more courage to stand up to what you do not believe. Jose Rizal was a man of such great courage. He was executed for standing up to what he did not believe: He never believed in the values of superstition especially when installed at the foundation of Philippine education. Poch Suzara

Archbishop Fulton Sheen

Archbishop Sheen once wrote: “ Modern man . . . has long believed that right and wrong were only differences in point of view, but now when evil works itself out in practice he is paralyzed to do anything against it.”
For my part as an atheist, I thought the Wrath of God should be more creatively directed against the evils from Satan, not against man, ancient or modern. Poch Suzara

Insanity

When one person suffers from a delusion, it is called insanity. When millions of people suffer from the same sick delusion, like in the Philippines, it is called Christianity. Poch Suzara

Hopefully

Me too, before I die, I hope to write “I go where faith does not kill. After all, in the next world, how can people already dead still kill each other over faith?” And to think that if an almighty God exists, is he really that almighty because he is able to reign over billions upon billions of people already dead in his kingdom of heaven? Poch Suzara

What's Wrong With Religion

What is wrong with religion? For one thing, it teaches you to be satisfied with answers to questions you have not even asked. In fact, religion teaches you to abandon your own questions. Just stick to the answers, especially as supplied in the holy bible – a book written by foreigners – the inspired authors of God.
In the meantime, ignorance is forever busy and needs feeding. The holy bible has all the nutritional diet for ignorance to enjoy fear and for fear to enjoy ignornace as a way of life everlasting. Poch Suzara

Faith that Kills

I do not know about you Rizalists, but each time I read Rizal’s “I go where faith can never kill,” in his Last Farewell, I understand it as alarmingly obvious that Rizal was warning everyone to face the fact that faith kills in this world he is leaving behind. As we are amongst those left behind in this world of murderous faith, why should we carry on embracing more harmful faith that has become even more murderous? Indeed, faith kills, especially precious minds and hearts of children in school. They grow up, if at all, as the victims of faith rather than the masters of reason. Obviously, instead of faith, we need more reason to remedy the ills of our sick society soaked with nothing but faith in human stupidity. For my part, as a high school expelled student, I said it before and I will continue to say it again: Faith is wrong; belief bereft of reason and devoid of question is evil. The faithful love deadly mental paralysis as they hate lively critical analysis. Thus, faith is never wanting to know what is true. In fact, it is worse. Faith makes one believe that life after death is better than life after birth. In the meantime, I am told by religious morons that religion is good because it comforts the dying. But I ask: shouldn’t religion be better if it prevents killing? After all, religion should brighten people to live and not frighten people to death! Truth to tell - everybody wants to go to heaven alive; nobody wants to arrive at the kingdom of God already dead! Poch Suzara
