Every Right

You have every right to believe what you want to believe. You have, however, no right whatsoever, to teach children in school to believe what you believe especially religion. A subject nobody knows nothing about. Children have every right to question everything; they have no right to believe in a lot of silly religious nothing. Poch Suzara

We are all Atheists

Most religious people are shocked out of their senses when I openly tell them that I am an atheist. These religious morons do not appreciate themselves as they are all a bunch of atheists too.

Christians who do not believe in the God of the Muslims are atheists according to Islam.

Muslims who do not believe in the God of the Christians are atheists according to Christianity.

So the same goes for the followers of the other great religions of the world - they are all atheists as they do not believe in the existence of each other’s Gods.
Well, if you just think a little bit more, even God Himself was an atheist. Take a good Look at his first command: Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Obviously God did not believe in the existence of other Gods. Poch Suzara

Burning Bush

My dear reader, can you really believe that God in the Old Testament existed as a Burning Bush?

Well, for my part, as an atheist, I refuse to believe that Mary, the Virgin Mother of God in the New Testament got pregnant with Jesus as she got herself impregnated by a Burning Bush. Poch Suzara

The Bible Says

“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6

Indeed, look at us Filipinos already about 400 years old as the only Christian people in Asia. Look how we are still aimless as a people and directionless as a nation. We are still stuck with the corrupt values and corrupt beliefs trained into us during the formative years in our schools, colleges, and universities.

In the meantime, I am told that nothing last forever. I totally disagree. There are some things that last as long as eternity. In the Philippines, among us Filipinos, it is called human stupidity. Poch Suzara

Oh God, Dear God

“When God forgives, He removes our sin and restores our soul.” Phil Star, Aug, 31,2009
Oh God, my dear God, don’t you have better things to do? Are you going to be a supernatural Nerd for the rest of eternity?

About 800 million women and their children in the world today go to sleep hungry each night. The majority of them love, worship, and adore your Son Jesus. What is the matter with you God? What in hell are you waiting for? What’s all this garbage about our dirty sins and polluted souls?

In the meantime, I am told that God exists as proven by the fact that there is, out there, not nothing, but something. Indeed, all of our troubles and problems in life in this world have something to do with something, and nothing to do with nothing. Poch Suzara

BR versus JC

To the saints Bertrand Russell was such a liar and so hard to read or to admire. He wrote: “The good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. What the world needs now is not only love but also greater knowledge about the nature of love, in all its complexity.”

To the sinners, however, Jesus Christ was much more truthful and so easy to obey. Jesus said: “If any man come to me and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, yea, ad his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. Luke 14:26

Take a good look at our sick society. Look how as saints or as sinners we all love Jesus up there while we hate one another down here. And to think that Jesus never went to college. He never attended high school. Golly, Jesus never even attended grade school. Yet, we love, worship, and adore Jesus who was not even a Filipino. He was a Jew born in a foreign land that never even got to be converted into embracing with deep faith Christian values and beliefs. Poch Suzara

Donating to Philippine Charity

I have donated on the average 100,00 pesos a year to Philippine charity. I started doing so since I arrived from the USA in 1986 having lived and worked in both Southern and Northern California for some 17 years.

Thus far, I have already donated a total of almost TWO MILLION PESOS ( 2,000,000 pesos ) to Philippine charity during these past 20 years. I have on hand the official receipts as proof to show to any one who thinks that I am such a “liar.” Indeed, most people have the impression that just because I am an atheist, I have neither a sense of morality nor in my heart a sense of charity. As a matter of fact, I couldn’t care less for the existence of a divinity. I care more about the spread of common human decency existing under a sane and a healthy society. Poch Suzara

Church and State

If you can believe in the existence of the separation between State and church, you might as well believe too in the existence of the separation between fear and ignorance.

Indeed, the job of the State is to keep the people living in ignorance. The job of the Church is to keep the people living in fear.

Thus, inspired by the corrupt state in cahoots with the corrupt church – is the corrupt system of education.

Look how we come out of our schools, colleges, and universities all at home with corruption than we are prepared to work for human civilization. Poch Suzara

College educated Jose Rizal

Indeed, Jose Rizal was college educated. High school expelled students, however, did not plan to put him to death in public. On the contrary, what I am saying is - if the college educated morons in power and authority did not get him executed, Jose Rizal could have done more, much more to show the way what real college education can do to accomplish health for the Filipino as a people and accomplish wealth for the Philippines as a nation. As it is, what we have accomplished as a college educated people and as a college educated nation is not love of country, but love of divinity.
And all for the sake of promoting in the Philippines social, religious, and political insanity.

As a non-believer of the Christian faith, indeed, as an atheist, and a high school expelled student, I rest my case. Poch Suzara

Comment from Bob Bernardo: - The so-called Philippine-education graduate Rizal vehemently dropped out of it, as vehemently as did, well-you-know-whom-I-mean. He described with contempt the intellectually stunting and morally degrading education he was getting at Sto.Tomas Pontifical University in the Filibusterismo historical novel. So, at 18, as indicated by his prize-winning ode to free thought and study(for one's perfection), he resolved to drop out for continuing modern advanced studies in Europe, including liberalizing Madrid. But most of it was self-study in the free air of scientific humanist Europe.

Ideas

Most of the ideas I write on this Blog, admittedly, have already been already expressed by other thinkers both in the ancient and in the modern world. Indeed, there is no such thing as an original idea as all ideas are but an imitation from various sources. Oh well, if you copy from one author, you are a plagiarist. If, however, you copy from 2 authors, you are a scholar. But if you copy from 3 different authors you are a researcher. With me I copy from the plagiarist and I copy from the scholar and I also copy from the researcher. In fact, I copy from 100 different authors. I am known as Poch Suara famous as a " catholic high-school Expelled Student" of some 65 years ago. Poch Suzara Facebook# Twitter# Google#

The Unholy Trinity

Mediocrity, Insanity, and corruptibility pretty much comprise the unholy trinity in this only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century. In the meantime, in line with Luke 14:26 - look how we love God, the Father; love God, the Son; and love God, the Holy Spirit up there, while we all hate the Filipino father, hate the Filipino son, and indeed, hate the Filipino family down here! Poch Suzara

The Problem with God

The problem with God is that only after you are dead will God impress you with something. For as long as you live, however, to God you are a nothing but a piece of nothing. Well, the problem with being dead is that you won’t be able to realize that you are already dead! Indeed, with what brain will you think? With what eyes will you see? With what ears will you hear? With what palate will you taste? With what nose will you smell? With what heart will you feel? With what sex organ will you be replenishing religious morons for heaven or multiplying more of them for hell? Poch Suzara

Tomorrow

For as long as we are still living, there is always tomorrow. But as soon as we are dead – there will be no more tomorrows. There will only be nothing. millions of years before birth we were existing as a nothing. Millions of years after death we shall be existing again as a nothing.

In the meantime, life’s meaning is that we must eventually say good-bye to our loved-ones we shall never see ever again. Poch Suzara

Our Troubled World

For as long as we waste time and energy believing, fearing, venerating, and having faith in a troubled God, we shall never solve the problems of our troubled world. We shall only always need a Savior. But Bertrand Russell had a more creative alternative: He wrote: “The good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge." "What the world needs now is not only love, but also the greater knowledge of the nature of love, in all its complexity. “ And if I may add, the world also needs not more fear, but more courage - the courage to achieve enlightenment in order to bring more light into this world of darkness. . .

Democracy

A personality or a celebrity can never be the enduring symbol of democracy. Democracy can only be born of, then grow, mature, and develop with, - the power of new and fresh ideas.

Hope for the Filipino as a people can also come not from God’s kingdom, but only from the power of scientific knowledge and earthly wisdom.

Indeed, democracy can neither be reformed by a personality nor transformed by a celebrity. Democracy can only be freely functional with the power of the radical reform of ideals. Poch Suzara

Rat-Race for Salvation

Many of my college educated friends and associates and relatives envy me – a high school expelled student. Specially as I managed, somehow, to happily pull myself out of the rat-race for eternal salvation. I decided to drop out of the rat-race because I clearly saw, even if I win – and gain eternal salvation with God - I would still be a rat. Poch Suzara

College-educated Morons

Most of the college educated men and women, especially those from any of the 1,000 Catholic colleges and universities know virtually nothing of the real Jose Rizal. Specially Rizal as a scientific thinker and as a freedom-fighter humanist.

The one and only thing they know, however, is that hours before he was executed by inspired Catholic friars - Jose Rizal “retracted” and that he died as a penitent Catholic believing in the existence of a Catholic God. Shame on all of you college educated morons. Rizal was not even given a Catholic burial. His remains was just
put inside an old sack and like a dead dog thrown inside Paco Cemetery. Poch Suzara

Natural Evil

Natural evil may not come from God but from Satan and his fallen angels. But then the question arises: Why did God create Satan and his fallen angels gifted with free will too?

In the meantime, how useful is our free will if it is utterly useless in the fight against the rest of our human body preventing it from dying vulnerable to germs, bacteria, viruses and other malignant tumors? Poch Suzara

A Text Message

Poch Suzara

They all Loved God

These religious morons all loved God: Bishop Cyril who had Hypatia killed loved God. The Catholic authority that jailed scientist Galileo loved God. The killers who had Bruno burned alive loved God. The Spanish Inquisitors loved God. The Spanish Catholic friars who had Jose Rizal executed loved God. The Christians who burned witches loved God. Promoters of the Children’s Crusade loved God. Martin Luther loved God when he proposed driving the Jews out of Germany. Hitler who had millions of Jews killed loved God. Parents who produce unloved and unwanted children existing under subhuman conditions in the Philippines love God. All the high US government officials who supported the Marcos dictatorship in the Philippines loved God. Abraham loved God when he was willing to murder his son. Moses loved God when he ordered his soldiers to kill the older women and the male children of the Midianites, but to keep the virgin girls for themselves [Numbers 31]. In all the bloody wars between Christians and Muslims, between Protestants and Catholics, all sides love God. The poor spiritually, bankrupt morally, and politically sick Filipinos in the Philippines – the only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century all love God up there by hating one another down here. Poch Suzara

Created

The day we arrived into this world via mother’s womb, we neither believed in the existence of God nor even believed in the existence of mother, and indeed, father. Now to believe that God created man in his own image and likeness has got to be some sort of a sacred hooey-phooey, or an ecclesiastical absurdity, if not based upon a holy baloney theology.

Indeed, we are all the stupid victims, not the intelligent masters, - of organized religion. Poch Suzara

God-Fearing

All of my God-fearing Catholic friends and Catholic relatives have not ceased being worried about the salvation of my silly soul. Each time, however, they see me emulating the life of a dumbstruck moron they become so proud of me. As I fuck around with them, get drunk around with them, and eat like pigs around with them, and I appear to them as someone who is now idiotic, if not moronic, indeed, now back to being a good Catholic - they feel I am now once again getting closer to God who will diminish my silly years in a silly Purgatory before I finally make it to a silly heaven.

In the meantime, being selfish, greedy, stupid, and insane tantamount to what love of God is all about. Poch Suzara

It is Incredible

How a high-school expelled student who eventually enrolled in the greatest of all universities – ( it is but a collection of books ), could easily provoke the thoughts of college educated men and women comprising for the most part our sick society. Indeed, a sick society established by sick values and sick beliefs as products of a sick system of education. Poch Suzara

Notes on the Supernatural

Isn't it funny that God blames man for the original sin when he himself originated everything to begin with? Obviously such a God, if he does exist, is a supernatural moron at best, at worst a supernatural monster. For my part, I refuse to love, worship, and adore such a queer God! I also refuse to live in fear of the devil - who is another supernatural queer! Poch Suzara

Oh God, my dear God, what kind of a supernatural monster are you? To hell with you God. Believe me God, you will not be forgiving us. We will, instead, be forgiving you.

College Educated Fools

Most of the college educated men and women, especially those from any of the 1,000 Catholic schools, colleges, and universities established in this poor and backward country virtually know nothing of the real Jose Rizal as a scientific thinker and, indeed, as a freedom-fighter humanist.

The one and only thing they know, however, is that hours before he was executed by inspired
Catholic friars - Jose Rizal “retracted” and that he died as a penitent Catholic.

Shame on all of you college educated fools for believing such historical lies..

Poch Suzara, high school expelled student of De La Salle University.

All Scripture

All scripture is given by the inspiration of God, and is profitable for instruction in righteousness. 2 Tim 3:16

Indeed, the bible also says: “The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. James 5:16

Ah, but the same bible also admits: “There is none righteous, no, not one.” Rom 3:10

In the meantime, here is an example from Jesus declaring himself in all righteousness: “If any man come to me and hate NOT his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:26

As for me, after seriously studying the bible for some 20 years, I threw the bible out the window. Bible reading was for me the beginning of my faith in atheism. Poch Suzara

My Joys in Life

Aside from the sexual joys, there is also the intellectual joys in life – the joys of learning and understanding. Happily, I have joys in life for being a stupid animal; but even more joyfully, I also have joys in life for being an intellectual. Poch Suzara

Lonely

I could knock on any university door and say to the teachers and professors – I will think the way you want me to think. I could knock on any house door and say to people - I will live the way you want me to live. I could knock on any church door and say to the priest - I will believe the way you want me to believe and never, will I ever be lonely again.

Happily, I say: I would rather be lonely with self-respect and dignity than have faith in the collectivity of human stupidity that generates the perversity of social insanity. Poch Suzara

The Walking Dead

The religious morons of our sick society are now telling me that there is a difference between restoration of the dead back to life as told in the Old Testament; and resurrection of the Jesus dead on the cross back to life as told in the New Testament.

Well, if there were really a difference between restoration and resurrection, why would God get any one dead in the first place? Why not keep them alive in order to avoid the useless drama of either silly restoration back to life or silly resurrection back to life?

And what’s the big deal about the power of God where God uses that power only to impress the dead but not to impress those who are still living? Surely, the Filipino, among the most spiritually poor people, if not morally bankrupt as a nation in the whole of Asia today can certainly use some of that power from God.
But where is that power from God? Hell, where is God? Poch Suzara

Abortion

The US Supreme Court said abortion is a constitutional right. The church and the pro-life, especially, in the Philippines, disagree. Let the church and the pro-life therefore take care of the abandoned children existing under subhuman conditions in the streets of our major cities. If they cannot or refuse to do so, we have the constitutional right to tell them to put up or to shut up.

In the meantime, men and women should have all the right and privilege of having sex for fun and not for the result of reckless or unwanty pregnancy. In this way, what takes over is prevention of pregnancy, not the promotion of abortion.Thus the HR Bill. Poch Suzara

Easy Believing

Religion is the greatest joy life has to offer to billions of people living on this earth. They hate to think. They love only to believe and happily, religion kills the necessity of thought. Indeed, for billions of people easy believing is always more convenient than hard thinking. Poch Suzara

The Power of Prayer

A religious moron wrote: “I BELEIVE THERE WAS A TIME WHEN WE WERE A NATION OF PRAYERS..BUT NOW, LOOK AROUND YOU..WE ARE NO LONGER A NATION OF PRAYERS BUT A NATION OF READERS. AMEN. "LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED"

With my untroubled heart, I ask: whatever happened to the power of prayer behind the power of God? Poch Suzara

Human Affairs

“In human affairs, there are forces making for happiness, and forces making for misery. We do not know which will prevail, but to act wisely we must be aware of both.” Bertrand Russell

For my part, I am aware of both atheism and theism having been raised and indoctrinated as a Catholic at home and in school during my younger years.

What about you religious morons? How come you are not even aware of the traditional misery that is keeping the Filipino spiritually poor as a people and keeping the Philippines morally backward as a nation? Poch Suzara

Debate on the Existence of God

In a debate between a theologian and a philosopher on the existence of God, the philosopher asked: - where is God around located? How come God is only always omni-absent, never omni-present during the debate? In fact, if there is a God – why is he always hiding, always playing the Hide and Seek game – never revealing himself to anyone? For my part, Why should I believe, love, worship, and adore such God who is never available to reveal himself to me? Especially as I have openly and publicly declared myself as an atheist living in this only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century. Poch Suzara

Lonely

I could knock on any door and say to people that I will live the way you want me to live. I could knock on any church door and say to the priest I will believe the way you want me to believe. I could knock on any university door and say to the teachers and professors I will think the way you want me to think, and never will I ever be lonely again.

I say: Fuck that shit! I would rather be lonely at any time than live a life of fear all the time. Poch Suzara

We are not a Nation of Readers

No, we are NOT a nation of readers. We are a nation of prayers. In fact, there are college-educated men and women on these pages - who have not ceased praying for me, a high school expelled student, to stop writing - specially about Bertrand Russell. The same Bertrand Russell – who saved not my silly soul, but saved instead my precious mind. Russell wrote: “We are all born ignorant, not stupid. We are made stupid by education.” Indeed, the same Bertrand Russell who also wrote some 100 years ago - "Education must foster the development of freedom of action and thought. This is the ultimate purpose of teaching and learning. Only a free human being can be a skeptical one; conversely, only a skeptical person can ultimately achieve genuine freedom." Any one of you out there believe that such words from Bertrand Russell can one day become obsolete - you got to be well-established in the ways of what precisely is keeping the Philippines - poor spiritually, bankrupt morally, insane politically, sick socially, retarded culturally, and childish religiously - as a nation. I REST MY CASE. Poch Suzara

Women In general

Most women look so pretty, sexy, and delicious. I hope to meet more of these women and discuss facts of life with them. For example, why man gives love in order to get sex. And why woman gives sex in order to get love.

At most times, however, the result is an unwanted pregnancy in order to maintain our sick society as parts of our sick world. Indeed, the troubles of our world begin with the family derailed. To think that while the woman is stuck with the baby, the man goes on giving more love to more women everywhere while he has been taught to believe that God will provide for these women and children. Most women too have been taught to believe that, no matter what, in the end of it all - there is always Jesus who will be their Savior.

In the meantime, life is a sexually transmitted disease with a mortality rate of 100 per cent. Poch Suzara

A Man of Hate

I am told that I am a man of hate. Indeed, I am a man of hate. I hate believing. I love, however, learning, discovering, and knowing. That is why I hated school. They only taught what to believe; not how to think. Poch Suzara

Our Forsaken Country

I said it before, I say it again: what is happening to the Philippines as one of the poorest and most backward country in Asia today is not that it is God-forsaken under a divine negligence, but worst: due to corruption by education, it has been forsaken by human intelligence.

Consider our college educated men. If they are not enjoying a higher standard of living in foreign countries, they are stuck at home busy in the baby factory helping our women manufacture more babies.

Now consider our college educated women. A great many of them are earning better wages overseas. At the expense, however, of their honor, self-respect, and dignity just to keep alive back home - marital relationships already destroyed, or the family already derailed. poch suzara

Stupid Faith

I said it before, I say it again: fuck faith. Faith has NOTHING to do with what is KNOWN. Faith can only exist in the arena of the UNKNOWN or in the realm of the UNKNOWABLE or in anything that is not worth KNOWING. No doubt when I was young, innocent, gullible, selfish, stupid, and insane, and filled with fear of this and fear of that - I was then, indeed, a MAN OF FAITH. Well, a man of faith is like a drunkard who clings to a lamppost for support, not illumination. In the meantime, just as much as Christianity must destroy reason before it can introduce faith, it must also destroy happiness before it can introduce salvation. It cannot be emphasized too strongly that Christianity has a vested interest in human misery. And nothing brings more misery to the human community than having faith in the perpetual stupidity behind Christianity. Poch Suzara

19.4 Million Students

“.81 million pre-schoolers, 13.9 million elementary students, 5.56 million high school students or 19.4 million students back to school today.” Phil Star June 1, 2009.

The Department of Health ( DOH ) and the Department of Education ( DepEd ) officials are on alert amid concerns of possible outbreak of Influenza virus in campuses.

For my part, as the chairman of the high school dropout Association of the Philippines, I should be more concerned for these millions of students ending up to be among the Sick Man of Asia in the future. They too will be taught to hold in deep faith that there will be a better world to come after death, and that after education, there will be a better country to go to and enjoy a higher standard of living and thinking, and indeed, remuneration. Poch Suzara

Original Ignorance

Original Sin is not as horrible as the Original Ignorance. After all, we are all born ignorant, not sinful. We are made sinful by another of God’s creation – the devil – the silly talking Serpent - responsible for the Fall of Man during biblical times. Ah, perhaps I am wrong. But where did original stupidity come from if not from original divinity as inspired by the original deviltry? Look how, in this modern day and age, we still continue to pray to God to give us this day our daily bread, and to lead us not into temptation? And if that were not enough, we also continue praying to Mary, the Mother of God, to pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death, amen! Poch Suzara

No life after Death

So there is no life after death! So what? Listen to Bertrand Russell – the philosopher who saved not stupid souls, but cultivated instead intelligent minds:

“I believe that 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 do thought and love lose their value because they are not everlasting.”

In the meantime, nothing is more natural than to believe that death is definite, not tentative. Or that death is a transition to a better life to come. Nothing is more absurd than to believe that the dead man is still living. Indeed, to pretend that we will be happy or unhappy after death of the body, is to pretend that we will still be able to see without eyes, to hear without ears, to taste without palate, to smell without a nose, and to feel without hands and skin. To propagate without the physical means to sexually penetrate. Poch Suzara

Private Relations

“In our private relations we all get busy that we have not time to develop affections for others, as they deserve to be developed; we have not time for sympathy, the understanding for those things that make for the beauty of human relations, because we are all so busy, and when we are not busy we tired.” Bertrand Russell

And that is why most marriages, most relationships - do not last unless of course we are busy with and for each other’s sake for a better future.

In the meantime, for each and every one of us – the day we are born, is also the day we begin to live in a dying body. That is why, if we must die, let is die sober, and not drunk or busy with lies. Poch Suzara

Bertrand Russell and Happiness

Bertrand Russell wrote: "Pleasure in itself is a good, but not a very important good, and it cannot satisfactorily be made an end of life because it does not entail progressive activity. To achieve happiness it is necessary to have some end never completely realized, but always in the process of realization. Ambition, parental affection, scientific curiosity, artistic creativeness, supply such activities; a man or woman who is absorbed in one of these and is not wholly unsuccessful can achieve a measure of happiness, but a man or woman who lives for pleasurable moments is certain, ultimately, to be the prey of unendurable boredom.”

As for me – I am enjoying my life as I am indeed a happy individual. I am happy because I found a job, nay, a lifetime career – to be involved in the war against Christianity which to defeat will take as yet another a century. Poch Suzara

Good World

We know from the bible that when God created the world he saw that it was good. Unfortunately, not so good for the religious morons who have to live in this “good” world. Happily, however, they have been told to believe that there will be a better world to come after death. Unfortunately, where exactly is that world located – nobody knows. Not even the theologians – the experts on the knowledge of God, heaven, hell, and purgatory, and the existence of the devil.

In the meantime, God also stated in the same bible to “love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the father is not with him.” John 2:15

Is it any wonder that spirituality plus Christianity add up to nothing but organized insanity that makes for our sick society? Poch Suzara

Evil – the Absence of God

We are told that "Evil is simply the absence of God. Evil is a term man developed to describe the absence of God....God did not create evil. It is not like TRUTH, or LOVE, which exists as virtues or, like heat or light. Evil is simply the state where GOD IS NOT PRESENT, like cold without heat or darkness without light."

So what in hell is God doing present only in places where evil is absent? Is God afraid to face and confront evil? Indeed, while God is not present everywhere, why then does he allow the devil to be in charge of evil everywhere in this world? Can any of you religious morons explain the existence of the stupid devil under God’s management?

As an atheist, I am dead sure that there is no God existing out there. However, if I am wrong that it turns out that there is really a God existing out there, then I say such a God is not worth loving, respecting, and believing. Such a God, no doubt, is good; unfortunately, good for nothing. Poch Suzara

The Death of Nature

Michael Moore wrote: “The things we call "cars" may have been fun to drive, but they are like a million daggers into the heart of Mother Nature. To continue to build them would only lead to the ruin of our species and much of the planet.”

Well, due to the billions of people now inhabiting our planet, nature is also dying the death of a billion cuts.

Now we are told Nature is God’s creation and we humans should respect God’s work. Indeed, we should. But then again why should we when we have been indoctrinated to believe in our schools, colleges, and universities that there is a better world to come after death? God himself tells us to love not this world, neither the things that are in the world? In fact, according to the bible, if you love the world, the love of God is not with you!

Indeed, we continue to believe that this world of nature and the flesh is something low and depraved and unworthy and therefore of little concern or consequences for those who seek the eternal life with God. After all, this natural world is merely a stopover on our journey to the next world. Therefore the less attention placed on it, the more attention placed on God’s kingdom, the better? Is it any wonder I ask that this world, our world, is a world degraded by stupid religion?

That is why as atheists we think nothing matters in this world except that which affects humanity. To hell with childish divinity. Poch Suzara

If Religions were Stupid Why do Billions of People have a Religion

If religions were fundamentally stupid, why is it that billions of people believe and have faith in their religion? The answer: most people are stupid not by taste nor by choice, but by education. Look how today, in this day and age, owing to stupid education, billions of people still believe that the sun that rises in the morning and sets in the evening! This is not true. It is all but a grand illusion. Just like the existence of the biggest gang of criminals in the Philippines - our Congressmen and Senators. We all believe them to be corrupt because they are atheists. This is not true. On the contrary, all of them are faithful believers in God and in love with the Son of God Jesus - the Savior of the Filipinos in the Philippines - the great supernatural power who is able to forgive their sins and their crimes.

Animals

"The total amount of suffering in the natural world is beyond all decent contemplation. For most animals, reality is a business of struggle, suffering and sudden death." Richard Dawkins

Nevertheless, for my part, as an atheist, I have every respect for all the animals existing in the natural world. They do not make me sick having faith in God. None of them pray to God to forgive them of their sins and crimes. They are exempted. Animals do not believe in life after death with God in heaven; or believe in life after death with the devil in hell. I envy the animals. They are not pretentious. They have no faith in any of the great religions of the world. Poch Suzara

Great Religions of the World

The child’s fear and sense of helplessness have always been at the foundation of the great religions of the world. Especially Christianity. Jesus said: “Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.”

For my part, I love children. I want them, however, to grow up and live the good life – one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. I don’t want children, like a bunch of religious morons, to end up in the kingdom of heaven. In fact, I want my own children to try and leave this world one day a better place than how they found it.

What a Life

We live on a speck of dust among the galaxies of which there exist billions of them comprising the universe.

Life itself seems to be a product, if not the result of a – disease. Drug addiction is a disease. Alcoholism is a disease. Eating, copulating, walking, breathing, sleeping, and indeed, even thinking, learning, etc, is a disease.

Consider the day we are born: we begin to live in a dying body. In fact, life itself is a sexually transmitted disease with a mortality rate of 100 per cent.

Now the religious morons tell me that God made man in His own image and likeness. Well, if we were the Sick Man of Asia, isn’t it because we were created in the image and likeness of a sick God? Poch Suzara

St. Augustine - the Moronic Saint

After a lusty and intellectually inventive young manhood, Augustine withdrew from the world of sense, reality, and intellect. He advised others to do the same. He writes:

“There is another form of temptation, even more fraught with danger. This is the disease of curiosity… It is this which drives us on to try to discover the secrets of nature which are beyond our understanding, which can avail us nothing and which men should not wish to learn… In this immense forest, full of pitfalls and perils, I have drawn myself back, and pulled myself away from these thorns. In the midst of all these things which float unceasingly around me everyday, I am never surprised at any of them… I no longer dream of the stars.”

The time of Augustine’s death, 430 a.d., marks the beginning of cultural stagnation, if not social degradation, - throughout Europe. It lasted for a thousand years. In the meantime, there was, indeed, a time when every single man, woman, and child believed, loved, and venerated God in this world. Historians refer to it as the Dark Ages.

In the Philippines, however, as we Filipinos all love and worship God, specially the God of the bible, we do not live in the Age of Analysis. On the contrary, as the Sick Man of Asia, we only continue to live in an Age of Mental Paralysis. Poch Suzara

Believing Verses Thinking

Most people hate to think. They only love to believe; especially anything that is not true. It spares them the ordeal of having to think for themselves and to take responsibility for what they should discover with a sense of honor, dignity, self-respect, and intelligibility. Poch Suzara

Religious Hogwash

‘The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Psalm 23:1-2... Since the 1st century, more than a 100 BILLION people already lived and died on this earth. Today in this 21st century, the world is populated by more than 7 BILLION people. Some 800 million women and children go to bed hungry every night. Nay, they do not even sleep on a bed! For Christ’s sake they do not even have toilet facilities. For the Lord to make you lie down in green pastures and lead you to still waters, etc. has got to more of the same religious hogwash that’s keeping our world poor spiritually, bankrupt morally, insane politically, not to mention stupid globally. In the meantime, I am told by the faithful believers that sex is one of the most beautiful language in this UNIVERSE! It is because of this language that two persons become one. Wowowee! No wonder we continue to live in such a religiously fucked world. And to think that the religious morons of this world continue to insist that God created man and woman in his own image and likeness. Poch Suzara

The Republic of Rizalia

Our Jose Rizal was arrested, jailed, and put to death by Christianity – his enemy. Indeed, in the Philippines, Rizal was considered a dangerous thinker. Rizal sensibly preached the exact opposite of what Christianity preached: “Our duty is to love our country and our conscience commands that we should do everything that this duty commands.” Rizal also wrote: “I would like the Filipino people to become worthy, noble, honorable, for a people who makes itself despicable for its cowardice or vices exposes itself to abuses and vexations.” As an Asian who has the greatest love, admiration, and affection for Jose Rizal and his ideals and principles and sanity, I submit that until the Republic of the Philippines has been renamed as the Republic of Rizalia – never, shall I ever, again, be proud to call myself a Filipino. I would rather that one day, before I leave this world, I shall refer to myself as a decent citizen of the Republic of Rizalia. Our legislators should begin the process of legislating the new name of our country. I hope they will not be waiting for the Will of God. Such a will has never existed neither has a God. The traditional advice to “become as little children” has never been constructive. In fact, as it goes with another Christian precept – “take no thought for the morrow,” - it has always been destructive. Indeed, we are all born innocent, not guilty. We are made guilty by a stupid system of education. In the meantime, it is a terrible thing to waste the human brain. We usually achieve what we, in life, can conceive with the power of our brains. In the new Republic of Rizalia, we should wish to see more creative joys in life rather than the drab tragedy of widespread poverty as inspired by religious insanity. As citizens of the republic of Rizalia, we need no longer trouble our own house to inherit the wind. Nor should we continue to be the fools as the servants of other fools. Indeed, we should no longer be the poor victims of Christianity - the greatest fraud ever foisted on humanity. We can begin to become a nation of intelligent readers; not childish prayers. We need the morality of initiative, not the morality of submission. The morality of hope, not fear, of things to be done rather than to be left undone. We must stop this business of loving only a God out there by hating one another down here. Our talents and abilities should be the real products of a Rizalian system of education - valuable right here for the development of our own country, and not just employable out there overseas – a drain for our own national development, not a gain. After all, foreign countries are already enjoying Jose Rizal’s high standard of thinking, working, and living based upon the power of science – the real Savior of our world. It is time to grow and mature as a decent people. It is time we develop ourselves as a decent nation. Freedom and democracy and the end of all forms of exploitative controls are good conditions for living the good life - one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. Let us make radical changes for our country. Let us embrace not the love of death, but precisely Jose Rizal’s love of life. Otherwise, for centuries to come, we shall only continue to struggle with our Christian so-called values and beliefs as the Sick Man of Asia. Poch Suzara

My Critics

My critics tell me that I am a failure; specially as I am an atheist. That nobody listens to me as I have been rehashing my arguments for ages, like mustard seeds falling on arid soil. That I am all but a nada. That I am still sick with fear as I got expelled out of high school some 65 years ago. Oh well, I say, what can you expect from an individual who, after he was kicked out a high-school, enrolled himself as a lifetime student in the greatest of all universities - it is but a collection of great books?

We Filipinos

We Filipinos have been educated, nay, indoctrinated to be incredulous, nay to be gullible enough to believe in something, to believe in anything. In the absence, however, of that something, of that anything, we are suppose to even believe in the existence of nothing.

Thus, we are the Sick Man of Asia. We do not think as a people. We do not think as a nation. We have only been frightened to believe in something. Indeed, we believe in anything, and in fact, our tradition has always been about believing and having faith in the existence of nothing. Poch Suzara

I Ask

Have any of you ever heard of a Filipino who got to be filthy rich for believing that God is bad? So how come millions upon millions of Filipinos are filthy poor for believing that God is good? In the meantime, college educated Pinoys and Pinays comprising our sick society pray daily to God “to give us this day our daily bread, and to lead us not into temptation.” These college educated Pinoys and Pinays are products of La Salle, Ateneo, Assumption college, Miriam college, Letran, San Beda, Diliman University, University of San Thomas, Santa Theresa college, Lyceum, including the Asian Institute of Management, and of course products of the University of the Philippines. As for me, luckily, I was expelled out of high school. I was thrown out of La Salle University because I refused to believe that God is a Catholic who provides us with daily bread or that God leads us into temptation.

Women love Fucking Idiots

Most women enjoy mediocrity, and that is why most men would sooner achieve a reputation in mediocrity than display rationality. Proving one's self as a mediocre is the quickest way to penetrate what’s in between her legs oozing out with femininity. In the meantime, when you love someone, be honest and truthful. It is always healthier to tell the truth and make him cry than to tell him a lie to make him smile. Otherwise, what you would have won for the rest of your life will be a fucking idiot. Poch Suzara

Jose Rizal, HAPPY BIRTHDAY - 2009

You gave your life for our country so, on the anniversary of your birth, I will report how they are faring. Sadly there is little progress since last year. Your old enemies – those in authority who had you arrested, incarcerated, and executed – are still here. They are still in control of the minds and hearts of our people and most of our schools, colleges, and universities. They still teach our youth how to pray - how to solve real problems by reaching for fantasy solutions. It is terrible training for their emotional growth and intellectual maturity. Worse yet, our youth are still taught to believe that after birth there is a better foreign country to go to; like after death there is a better next world to go to. Yes sir, we continue to be the same victims of indoctrination, not the masters of education. We are still into the religious way of believing when we should have progressed into the scientific way of thinking. Rather than allow science and clear thinking to transform us into a nation of dignified men and self-respecting women we try to solve the problems of faith with more faith. Even more painful to admit, millions of Filipinos continue to contribute daily to keeping the Philippines poor and backward. The believers running our sick society continue to insist that there is no such thing as overpopulation problem today. They insist that our society can provide Filipinos with adequate food, housing, and schooling, even saying that there are resources for a population of 200 million. And so in the Philippines an average of 3 babies are born every minute of the day or 1.8 million yearly. When they grow up, if at all, such children are also taught in schools to refer to the bible for moral growth and spiritual development. Indeed, the same bible that teaches us to love not this world, neither the things that are in this world; and to take no thought for tomorrow for tomorrow will take care of itself. In the meantime, life in the Philippines can be characterized as the daily competition to be the criminal rather than be the victim of the criminals. The forgiveness of sin and the pardoning of crime provide the basis for our social, moral, and political values. Indeed, in our country, if one Filipino suffers from a delusion, it is called "insanity" if, however, millions of Filipinos suffer from the same delusion, it is called "Christianity." Sir, again this year, as it was during the previous years, the politicians in government 'serve' our country not by telling the bitter truth, but by telling sweet lies. The sweeter the lies, the sweeter their promotion in government office. Ours continue to be a government of the corrupt, by the corrupt, and for the corrupt. To think that the worst kind of poverty is the poverty of the mind. Such horrors come from our schools, colleges, and universities. Millions of our college educated men and women are working not for our national growth and development, but are employed in foreign countries enjoying the wealth of real education. The kind of wealth that comes from science which is all about the courage to change and to improve under a fearless, and self-correcting, enterprise. Sir, you were certainly a real hero during your century. Today, in our own century, instead of heroes in our God-fearing country we have God-fearing politicians indoctrinated to embrace blind Christian faith. They neither make use of the power of knowledge nor are interested in its diffusion. Our politicians would readily pray to a Jewish foreign divinity to remedy the traditional ills of our sick society. They do not pay any serious attention to remedy the rotten core in of our system of education - the root cause of our daily confusion as a people and yearly delusion as nation bereft of any sense of direction. Dearest sir, Happy birthday. We miss you. We respect you. We admire you. We love you! Yes sir, thanks to you, the few of us who have seen through the evils of your enemy - Christianity, - we know what it means to love our own country and what it means to always be on the side of our fellow-countrymen, not for what we are today, but for what, with the power of education, we Filipinos can become tomorrow. Yours sincerely, Poch Suzara,

Free Will

First, let me explain the nature of my free will. With free will I am able to argue on the premise that God does not exist; I am also able to argue on the premise that God does exists. In either case, however, I can reject the existence of God with regrets; or, accept the existence of God without regrets. Well, I say, if there is a God out there and He seems neither disturbed nor disappointed with the way I am living my short otherwise brief life on this earth with my free will – why should you religious morons be disturbed or disappointed in me? Indeed, free will is a not gift from God. Each and every one of us must invent, refine, and develop our own. That’s how real and free – free will should be. That’s how it has been and still is and always will be the nature of my own free will. In the meantime, as a man of self-respect and dignity. I therefore do not qualify as a candidate for the master-slave relationship that Christianity offered me. A man lacking in self-respect and dignity, however, is a man ridden with guilt. Such a man will always prefer the security of Christianity over independence and find comfort in the thought that, for the price of total submissiveness, especially via the mutilation of one’s intellect, God will love and protect him. In exchange for obedience, Christianity promises salvation after death. In order, however, to elicit obedience through this promise, Christianity must convince you that you need salvation, that there is something to be “saved” from. Christianity has nothing to offer a happy man already enjoying his intellectual freedom and human dignity. If Christianity is to gain a motivational foothold, it must declare war on earthly pleasure – the joys in life and this, historically, has been its precise course of action – especially in the Philippines, still poor and backward, – the only Christian country in Asia. In the eyes of Christianity all Filipinos are sick and sinful and helpless in the face of God, and therefore we are all potential fuel in the flames of hell. Well, just as Christianity must destroy reason before it can introduce faith, so it must destroy happiness before it can introduce salvation. Christianity and insanity are one and the same mockery against the whole of humanity. As an atheist therefore, I am against Christianity. In the here and the now as I would rather be always on the side of humanity. Poch Suzara

Education in the Philippines

Critical thought in our schools, colleges, and universities is not a value, despite the fact that the aim of education is to produce men and women who, supposedly, should learn to “think for themselves.” Education in the Philippines? There is no such thing, and if there were, education has been and still is a failure, especially as it has been under the success of Christianity in the Philippines. Indeed, what we acquire via education is not education, but indoctrination. After which we are awarded a certification. It explains why millions of our college educated men and women seek jobs, not capable of creating jobs for themselves to contribute and to enrich our own country. Thus, millions of college educated Filipinos are employed in some 168 countries around the world. Surely, they enjoy a higher standard of living and, hopefully - thinking. At the expense, however, of the family derailed. Marital vows thrashed. Relationships shattered. Promises undelivered. Plans postponed. Communications negated, If not deviated, or worst – vitiated. Indeed, to be more destructive, not instructive. For my part, as a high school expelled student of some 60 years ago, I imagine how the majority of our college educated men and women could be a gain, not a drain, - on the Philippines economy. They could, indeed, be industrious, productive, vigorous adults who could have more love of and for country and love of creative industry. In the meantime, according to latest study of “livable cities” in the world, Manila is near the bottom of the ranking of the most livable cities, landing at 108th spot. Another corrupt reflection of the sad failure of the corrupt system of education in our God-forsaken Philippines - the only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century. Poch Suzara

Books written by Bertrand Russell

In 1940 an American New York lawyer who was more of a Catholic than he was pathetic described Russell’s books in a court case as follows: "lecherous, libidinous, lustful, venerous, erotomaniac, aphrodisiac, irreverent, narrow-minded, untruthful and bereft of moral fiber." ... In the later years the New York attorney Joseph Goldstein had to eat his own words. In 1950, Bertrand Russell won the Nobel Prize for literature – in recognition for his varied and significant writings in which he champions humanitarian ideals and the freedom of thought... Bertrand Russell always insisted on the importance of philosophy, science, and mathematics to each other. He revolutionized logic and our understanding of mathematics. In fact, Bertrand Russell was one of the founders of the modern computer age... Today in this already 21st century, religious morons are using the Internet services to spread the so-called “evils of atheism.” They completely ignore the historical fact that the computer machine and the internet facilities were both invented, refined, developed, and manufactured by atheists. Poch Suzara

Atheism

Atheism rises above creeds and puts Humanity upon one plane.
There can be no 'chosen people' in the Atheist philosophy.
There are no bended knees in Atheism;
No supplications, no prayers;
No sacrificial redemptions; No 'divine' revelations;
No washing in the blood of the lamb; No crusades,
No massacres, No holy wars; No heaven, No hell,
No purgatory; No silly rewards and No vindictive punishments;
No christs, and No saviors; No devils, No ghosts and No gods.
Joseph Lewis

Well, my dear reader, have you ever heard of a Filipino family
who got to be filthy rich for believing that God is bad? And yet,
how come millions of Filipino families are filthy poor for
believing that God is good?

Nay more, have you ever heard of atheist nations declaring war on
other atheist nations for not believing in the existence God?

The Reality of Love

Each unfolding reality contains the seeds of its own destruction and the embryo of a new reality that will replace it. Sadly, this horror, as it applies to everything, also applies to the reality of love. Indeed, there is no such thing as love lasting forever. Love too eventually dies as it destroys itself.

Life, however, goes on. Indeed, life too, is just as destructive. But history shows us - there is no finality in human affairs. In life, however brief and temporary as life is, there is only wisdom and knowledge to be achieved together with the understanding that life, especially the un-examined life, - is not worth living for any one of us. Poch Suzara

Frightened Believers

They would stare at painful photos showing human beings struggling to survive under poverty and misery, indeed, existing like animals in the gutter. Then they would express sentiments that those of us who are enjoying a better standard of living should thank God for his blessings. I say this is religious stupidity, if not superstitious mockery. Isn’t time to question what is a God for with his godlike power? God already has his best of health and the greatest of wealth and all kinds of goodies up there, why could God not share them with impoverished Filipino people down here? Golly, God could have the time and the energy and the attitude to screw around with a Virgin Mary to produce a Son. Why can’t He produce goodies for, say, the poor and miserable Filipinos in the Philippines – the only Christian country in Asia since the a6th century? For my part, I thank God I am an atheist and a freedom fighter. Never, however, will I ever – love, worship, and adore such a supernatural monster. Poch Suzara

Sick Society

Ours is a sick society because the faith-soaked men and women who are running it continue to embrace their sick faith in sick values and beliefs that have nothing to do with alleviating sick humanity, but only to promote the status of a sick theology.

Indeed, no other belief has done more harm to the human community than the deadly belief that there is a God existing out there who gives a hoot for any of us down here.

In the meantime, my good friend Rolf V happily married to a Filipina summarized it at best: In the Philippines we are not only proud of our theocracy as a nation, we are even more proud of our theocrazy as a people. Poch Suzara

Beliefs and Values

Beliefs and values are not matters of instinct; they are products of education. To appreciate a thing of beauty, one must cultivate a taste for beauty. Sadly, our education has been more about having faith in the better world to come after death. In the meantime, thanks to human intelligence governments have already together established the United nations of the world. But with more intelligence, I ask: isn’t it also time for the various churches to establish the “United Religions of the world?” Poch Suzara

Purpose of Theology

The purpose of theology is to cripple the minds of boys and the hearts of girls at home and in school. And that is exactly how the subject of religion has been all about. It is nothing but a “crutch.” Otherwise more known as the “Faith in God.” The priesthood industry has certainly gained wealth, power, and glory on this earth selling “crutches” for every one to utilize and to have faith in. It is, however, to him who masters our minds not with dogma or pigma or hogma, but with the power of knowledge that we owe reverence to and much admiration for. In the meantime, a man who loves to retire in his own solitude in order to study has no dangerous passions. His greatest passion, however, is to know the truth and his greatest ambition is to share it to others. Poch Suzara

What If

What if after death, it turns out there is God standing right in front of me ready to judge my beliefs and values while I lived on this earth? What will I say then?

I will ask God to forgive me for having wasted so many precious years of my life as a boy at home and in school, I was certainly frightened to believe in a lot of religious nonsense. I knew more about Jesus Christ than I hardly knew about Jose Rizal – a Filipino thinker. I will ask God to forgive me for having been faithful as a devout Catholic. Indeed, to forgive me for having wasted my youthful years uselessly praying daily in school, and praying nightly at home. Confession every Friday. Mass and communion every Sunday. Attended novena every Wednesday. Family rosary every single night. To forgive me for having lived a life of fear and submission not only as a stupid sinner, but also as a greedy, selfish, and utterly thoughtless Christian. Oh yes dear God, please forgive me for having been not the intelligent master, but only the stupid victim of Christianity. And I hope you will find it in your heart to appreciate that my life only began to make beautiful sense, indeed, only began to have more meaning when I gradually discovered the creative path toward the beauty of atheism. Poch Suzara

Boredom

A great many of my friends and associates, especially classmates and schoolmates in La Salle would readily admit that they are bored; hardly, however, would they also admit they are suffering from boredom – one of the most destructive of horrors that’s keeping our world devoid of tranquility, if not bereft of peace, beauty, and harmony behind social sanity.

In his Conquest of Happiness, Bertrand Russell wrote: “Boredom is essentially a thwarted desire for events, not necessarily pleasant ones, but just occurrences such as will enable the victim of ennui to know one day from another. The opposite of boredom, in a word, is not pleasure, but excitement.”

Indeed, boredom generates aggression and destruction. It is so easy to tell how in a variety of ways bored individuals express their boredom: faith in God has more to do with boredom than having faith in God. Alcohol consumption is a means to help forget boredom. Smoking, golfing, fishing, outings, movies, parties, watching boxing fights, sex orgies, business meetings to agree as to when will be the next meeting, traveling, political campaigns, picking a fight with one’s spouse, or against one’s children, not to mention praying the rosary, or doing the 14 ways of the cross on one’s knees in church, etc, have more to do with getting away from boredom than actually living the good and creative life – one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. Poch Suzara

Religion and Morality

We are told that religion is necessary for men to behave morally. That without religion men will be immoral savages. That fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. That the terrors of the next world are calculated to subdue men’s evil passions.

Let’s open our eyes, however, and consider just how religious have been the religious men and women that make for our sick society. Let’s take a good look at our corrupt politicians, dishonest theologians, dumbstruck teachers, insane professors, brainless magistrates, greedy businessmen, selfish traders, imposters, pretenders, adulterers, prostitutes, cheating wives and husbands, corporate thieves, and evangelists as swindlers, etc – they all share something in common: They all love, worship, and adore God. It seems God is the only supernatural being out there who can forgive sins and pardon crimes down here. Poch Suzara

The Revealed Truth

Has the Revealed Truth been revealed? Why then do the great religions of the world hate each other because they cannot agree as to who revealed what truth to whom and when and how was it revealed? In the meantime, revelation is not revelation unless it is revelation directly to you. Otherwise, revelation to others for you to believe and have faith in is not revelation but a useless second-hand information. Poch Suzara

Abortion and Insanity

Killing the human fetus inside a womb is insane. Killing the human brain inside a classroom in school is even more insane. Killing the human heart inside foxholes in battlefields for the glory of the Christian God or for the glory for the Muslim Allah or for the glory of the Jewish Yahweh is the pure toiletry, if not the cesspool of human insanity.

For my part, I said it before, I say it again: FUCK ABORTION. Let's all practice something easier, less expensive, less destructive - PREVENTION via Family Planning and Birth control measures. Poch Suzara

Judge

"People will be judged by the way God sees them and not by the way we see them.” Phil Star, May 19, 2009. For my part, I will judge the devil for screwing around with God. I will also judge God for screwing around with the devil. No doubt, both God and the devil deserve some kind of mutual joys and happiness in their eternal life. Well, for all I care, both can screw each other on earth as they do in heaven and in hell.To think that the angels of God who really have nothing important to do – would just busy themselves watching the endless supernatural orgy in heaven or, as the case may be - the endless supernatural orgy in hell. While we humans on this earth continue to be spiritually neglected,abandoned, and screwed! Poch Suzara

Love and Serve God

“Those who love and serve God on earth will be right at home in heaven.” Phil Star May 29/2009 ... Oh God, dear God, what about you? When will you also begin to love and serve man on earth like a real Supreme Being that you are suppose to be? As the creator of heaven and earth and hell why do you need all this loving or serving? Is it to make you contented and happy and secured at home in paradise? Poch Suzara

God

God

Voltaire, the famous 18th century French atheist, said: “If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him.”

Mikhail Bakunin, the famous Russian atheist, said: “I reverse the phrase of Voltaire, and say that, if God really existed, it would be necessary to abolish him.”

For my part, as a not yet famous Filipino atheist, I say: “What does it matter whether God exists or does not exist? So, after death, and owing to our mental capacity; or, as the case may be – mental incapacity - I will be rewarded in heaven; or, as the case may be - I will be punished in hell for all the rest of eternity – so what?

What is there to be afraid of or to be happy about? After all, infinity and human stupidity are one and the same senseless and endless baloney. Poch Suzara

RP-US Visiting Forces Agreement

Ten years of the VFA has revealed to us many horrors. It has shown us how freedom and democracy, and indeed, sovereignty - are incompatible with the prolonged presence of foreign troops. It has shown us how our legal processes can be undermined by rotten diplomatic considerations, if not made corrupt by political manipulations.

Well, for my part, I say it again: the damage done by the presence of foreign troops in our country is puny compared to the damage done by the foreign religion established in this country since 400 years ago. The threats of eternal damnation on the one hand, and the second coming of a Jewish Lord on the other hand - both have made a mockery of our system of education that has neither improved our way of life as a people, nor has it developed the Philippines as a nation.

No doubt, our schools, colleges, and universities have made us good; unfortunately, good for nothing. Look how we were made to believe that there is a better world to come after death. And that if in case we learn to love this world, the love of God is not with us!


Unless we dump Christianity out of our country, we shall only continue to feel the need of foreign troops to protect our poverty as a way of life and to defend our moral bankruptcy as a nation.

In the meantime, the Philippines is greater and bigger than we all are as individual Filipinos. Therefore love of country should be our one and only religion. Especially for the sake of the here and now. And love of fellow-citizens should be at the very foundation of our moral, political, and social values. Nothing else matters. Nothing else counts. Not even a divinity out there that perpetually inspires the Filipino insanity down here. Look at our country - she continues moving; unfortunately, moving not forward, but only backward. Back to those glorious centuries called “the Dark Ages.” Poch Suzara

Jose Rizal - mankind's greatest of men

Alleviating the sufferings of the Filipino and avenging the victims of cruelties was the cornerstone of Rizal’s ambitions. Especially to rescue the Philippines from the horrors of Christianity. He considered brutal punishment not only a violation of human rights, but a social horror. This was the point he stressed to Father Francisco Sanchez, his former professor at the Ateneo Municipal de manila, when he paid the friar a visit in August 1887, a few days after his return from Europe: “Are you not afraid of the consequences of your audacity (in writing the Noli Me Tangere ), asked Father Sanchez. “Father,” Rizal replied, “you are a missionary. If you go on your mission, are you not afraid of the consequences of its fulfillment?” “Oh, that is entirely different!” replied Father Sanchez. “Not at all,” said Rizal. “Your mission is to baptize the heathen, but mine is to make men worthy.” To make Filipinos worthy was to Rizal the initial step if any change was to take place. The attempt at changing oneself would then expand to a wide range, that of changing the conditions around him, and eventually that of the Philippines. But this was possible only if love of country has been fully developed. However, arousing national sentiment and pride, by stimulating love for one another as Filipinos, Rizal hoped to instill in the Filipino the feeling of nationalism. This was Rizal’s mission. A rare Filipino thinker indeed who had the courage to promote the beauty of historical harmony in the Philippines where Christianity has only spread the insanity of theology. Rizal’s dream was to see his country’s prosperity via cultural growth and social development. He wrote: “I would like the Filipino people to become worthy, noble and honorable.” The exact opposite of the teachings of Christianity – we are all sinners and worthless. History, however, tells us what Christianity told Rizal to his face: “What in hell are you doing? Why are you threatening the profitable Christian business in the Philippines? The essence of Christianity is that God must be obeyed because God is bigger and stronger and, in addition, God is incomparably more vicious. Obey God or burn in hell. Why do you want to straighten out the broken spirit of the Filipino by teaching them the worthlessness of guilt feelings – indeed, the same guilt feelings that give so much power and authority of the Church in the Philippines?” As if Rizal did not know that in every religion the priests alone have the right to decide upon what pleases or what displeases God; and of course the priests will always decide upon what pleases or displeases them first. Moreover, Rizal clearly saw that Christianity thrives on guilt. Guilt, not love, is the fundamental emotion that Christianity seeks to induce. For all of its alleged concern for the “poor in spirit,” Christianity does its best to perpetuate spiritual impoverishment. The Christian bible in the Philippines has been about one uniform message. It is that God must be obeyed, period. If God commands worship, Filipinos must worship. If God commands hate, Filipinos must hate. If God commands prayer, Filipinos must pray. This principle has remained unchanged. God is the master, the Filipinos are the slaves, and the fundamental characteristic of slaves is that they are not permitted, under threat of force, to act according to their own judgment. In brief, to be mindless for the sake of godliness. After Rizal had been arrested, jailed, and executed in 1896, Christianity’s continued success has been insured in the Philippines. With Rizal and his thinking kind conveniently expunged out of the Filipino psyche the Philippines has remained famous as the only Christian country in Asia. Since the 16th century, Christianity has had nothing to offer the Filipino except misery and poverty under a corrupted spirituality. Indeed, Christianity has successfully made the Filipino proud and well-established as the greatest worshippers of God - Sick Man of Asia today.

Famous American Priest

Father James B. Rueter proudly said: “I have tried to be a priest. A priest is a bridge ...a bridge between
God and man .... a channel of God's love, peace and joy.”

It is truly pathetic, if not moronic, not to mention just simply diabolic: millions of Filipinos still believe that a God out there – the creator of the universe, the administrator of heaven and hell and purgatory, an all-knowing divinity, eternal, holy, immortal, immense, immutable, incomprehensible, ineffable, infinite, invisible, just, loving, merciful, most high, most wise, omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, patient, perfect, and a supreme being - would nevertheless need an American priest to be a bridge between God and the Filipinos as a channel for the so-called “God’s love, peace, and joy.” Why? What’s wrong with the Filipino priests? Are they not as good enough?

Really, in God’s name in heaven and for his glory on earth, I ask: just how sick can we Filipinos be as the Sick Man of Asia in this already 21st century?

For my part, after I am dead, I hope to meet with God. I will ask Him to please forgive me for having wasted many precious years of my life as a thoughtless and a frightened Catholic. Specially when I was victimized as a student in grade school and a high school at De La Salle University. I was taught to believe and to have faith not in Filipino priests, but only in American priests. Poch Suzara

Psychiatric Help

I am told that I need a psychiatrist to help me find my way back to faith in God. This is only because I have publicly manifested more respect and admiration for Jose Rizal than I have openly shown neither love nor affection for Jesus Christ.

Jose Rizal was born a Filipino in the Philippines . Jesus Christ was born a Jew in Bethlehem . I was also born a Filipino in the Philippines . Now what exactly have we Filipinos got to do with a Jew born in a Jewish land some 2,000 years ago?

Haven’t we Filipinos already had enough of Jewish nonsense keeping us poor as a people and backward as a nation? And to think it was Judeo-Christian power and authority that had our Jose Rizal, a Filipino thinker who loved his country and loved fellow-Filipinos, - arrested, jailed, and executed by the disciples of Jesus Christ - the Jesuits in the Philippines.

In the meantime, the greatest psychiatrists was Sigmund Freud. He was an atheist. He concluded that he had got to the heart of religion: it was founded in the child's sense of helplessness. Poch Suzara

Saints In Heaven

Saints in heaven are just as worthless as the saints on earth. Look how the saints, after all these past centuries, in heaven or on earth, have consistently neglected to organize a general meeting with God. Especially to settle, once and for all, why we Filipinos must stop praying for our daily bread, and stop praying to Mary, Mother of God, to pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death, amen. Isn’t it time to fix the broken record repeating itself? It is time for a change of ideals!

In the meantime, where is Jesus and His promise to return? What’s holding up the show? If the First Coming was a mission impossible during the first century, isn’t it about time to do a Second Coming that would be a mission possible in this already 21st century? Especially in the Philippines – the only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century? Poch Suzara

Adam and Eve

As the first human beings on this earth, how exactly did God as their creator play vital role in developing the mind of Adam with the power of knowledge? How did the God cultivate the heart of Eve - with the beauty of wisdom? So much so that neither would not be gullible to be easily bamboozled by a stupid Talking Snake into committing something even more stupid called “the Original Sin?” For my part, I Imagine Adam and Eve gifted not with a “free will” but empowered instead with the intellectual ability to question everything – the basis of philosophy that eventually produced daughters otherwise more known throughout the world as “the sciences!” The same sciences that proved religion, historically, has always been based upon a lot of ecclesiastical, if not bombastical, superstitious hogwash. Obviously God also gifted his Talking Serpent with a free will. And yet a lot of you frightened religious morons, who lack the courage to read properly bible contents, blame Adam and Eve; when in fact it was God in cahoots with the Talking Serpent who were both mutually guilty of something more terrible than "original sin." It is called "God's divine original plan!" Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Most Women

Most women are tantalized with the secret of perfect skin, the secret of perfect body, and the secret of perfect glamour. Hardly, however, do most women also get fascinated with the secret of intellectual capacity – precisely the condition that attracts intelligent men for a meaningful relationship or for creativity that insures a happy and a successful marriage.

It is no wonder that most men would rather achieve a reputation in mediocrity? It is the easiest way to conquer what’s in between the legs of shallow-minded women oozing out with so much femininity when in fact all she is after is emotional as well as financial security?

So you fuck her. She fucks you. In the end, who the fuck cares anyway? In the meantime, life is a sexually transmitted disease with a mortality rate of 100 per cent.

Devils and Diseases in the Bible

Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases. Luke 9:1 Please, could any of you reading this verse explain what kind of power and authority did Jesus give his twelve apostles? And how come the apostles were never able to spread the Word of God in China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, Japan, Korea? Indeed, never converted such countries into Christianity like they did the Philippines - the only Christian country since the 16th century and how come diseases like leprosy and sick politics have never been cured with the power and authority from Jesus? Indeed, how exactly did the apostles of Jesus cure which or what diseases anywhere in the world? Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The Unholy Bible versus Science and its Beauty

There is not one word in the bible that acknowledges the existence of science. Indeed, there is nothing in the bible that explains the benefits of anti-biotic, heart and organ transplant, steam engine, nuclear power, electricity, jet engines, desktop electronic computers, or the internet.

The bible claims the earth moves around the sun; that the sun moving can be stopped; that the world is flat with four corners...now are these the words written by inspired authors of an All-knowing God? Please, spare me the ecclesiastical hogwash.

The bible has never answered the question who made God, never responded to any emergency, remedied or cured anything, never created wealth, never alleviated pain, never solved any problems of humanity, or eliminated poverty, stopped any wars, or even cured pimples in the faces of teen age girls serious at daily prayer.

Indeed, it is incredible to meet biblical morons who are ignorant of the Old or the New Testament, and when they do read it, and they do not understand what they are reading – they believe themselves to be blessed by divine wisdom via the Revealed Truth. Poch Suzara

Man’s Greatest Invention - God

Man’s greatest invention – God. Man created God in his own image and likeness. Those who do not believe are called atheists. As if there is a God or a devil for that matter existing anywhere out there who gives a hoot about the atheists like me.

In the meantime, since the time of Jesus, more than a hundred billion people already lived and died on this earth. Let’s assume half of them made it to heaven, the other half made it to hell. So what? What have either God and the devil really accomplished for each other except the universal manifestation of stupid divinity on the one hand, and stupid deviltry on the other hand – both endlessly competing against each other to prove the existence of supernatural insanity? Poch Suzara

It’s Insane either way

It is insane to believe in the existence of God. It is insane not to believe in the existence of God. It is, indeed, damn you if you believe that God exist, and damn you if you do not believe that God exist. In either case you are damned!

For my part, whether there is a God or not, I choose to believe in my own existence, puny and brief as it is. I’d rather live the good life in this world– one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. And to hell with the existence of a God in this world or a God existing in the next world, if any.

Victims of religion

Take a good look at the victims of the three great religions of the world: Judaism has its Egyptians, Sodomites and Lebanese. Christianity has its witches and homosexuals and Filipinos. Islam has its American infidels. Happily, we atheists have no victims. We have no belief system to make us hate or make us kill those who do not believe in the existence of God or Allah or Yahweh. We are kind and gentle and peaceful people. But identify yourselves as the religious morons that make for our sick society – we will fight you especially as you teach so destructively mentally inside our schools, colleges, and universities.

Silly Bible Authors

They were ignorant and superstitious authors of God. They did not know that the earth is round, not flat. They did not know the earth orbits around the sun. They did not know that a million planets the size of earth could fit inside the sun. They did not know that the human body is comprised of a hundred trillion cells and each cell contains a complete library of instructions on how to make every part of a human body. They did not know that there are far more stars out there existing than all the grain of sands in all the beaches of the planet earth. They did not know that life on earth runs exclusively on sunlight. Plants gather the photons and convert solar into chemical energy. Animals live-off the plants. They did not know that man dies entirely, not partially. That there is no more circulation, respiration, digestion, speech, or reflection in a human body that is already dead.

The most destructive part of all – they knew nothing of science and its method as a human invention. By far, it is the best tool we have for understanding life and the nature of this world. Our world.

Bible authors knew nothing of science as a self-correcting enterprise, ongoing, and applicable to everything. Science has two rules. First: there are no sacred truths; all assumptions must be critically examined; arguments from authority are worthless. Second: whatever is inconsistent with the facts must be discarded or revised. Science shows us how to understand the world as it is and not confuse it with how we wish it to be. Poch Suzara

Relying on God

"Relying on God has to begin all over again every day, as if nothing had yet been done." - C.S. Lewis

Isn’t it so obvious that if we just continue to rely on God over again every day – it can only mean that God does nothing for nobody as God does nothing for anybody?

At any rate, who or what is this God anyway? We are assured that God is present everywhere, yet his presence remedies nothing. We are told that God foresees everything, but his foresight prevents nothing. We are told that God is here and there and is everywhere, but why then is God only always omni-absent?

During the past 500 years of Christianity in the Philippines, we Filipinos have done nothing for ourselves as a people. We have also achieved nothing for ourselves as a nation. Except to reply on God to give us this day our daily bread and to lead us not into temptation. Look at us Filipinos today - the Sick Man of Asia still relying on God in this already 21st century as we have been relying on God during the past 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th, and 20th century!

Pastor Rick Warren - The Purpose-Driven Life

The rich and famous author of the best seller book THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE – Pastor Rick Warren says that when you have: Happy moments, PRAISE GOD. Difficult moments, SEEK GOD. Quiet moments, WORSHIP GOD. Painful moments, TRUST GOD. Every moment, THANK GOD. Obviously, Rick Warren believes that God is not only always hungry for attention, always eager for devotion, always frustrated for affection, always thirsty for adoration, always desperate for recognition, but also always cold-blooded as a perfection always lost in self-admiration. Wow! Is God really that kind of a sick egomaniac? In the meantime, on the day we are born, we begin to live in a dying body. Our existence is no more than a point, a flash in the pan, a wink of an eye long. In comparison to God’s no beginning and no end existence, our duration in this life on this earth is but an instant. We also live on a speck of dust called “earth” lost in the immensity of space and in the eternity of time. The sun makes up 98.8 per cent of all the mass of the solar system. Everything else including planets, asteroids, dust, moons add up to just 0.2 per cent. Indeed, 1,000,000 (one million) planets the size of earth can comfortably fit inside the sun. Hardly do we begin to learn when death intervenes before we can experience the joys of more learning. Indeed, death comes to take over before we can experience more joys in life – the greatest of which is the pleasure in growth and positive achievements - the love of life - glad when others are happy, not happy when others are not happy - in brief - living the good life - one inspired by love and guided by knowledge.

Universal Mess

Everything in this world is connected with everything else in a delicate and complex web of interrelationships.

There is order in the universe; and there is also chaos in the universe. Both, however, are interconnected to each other.

With order connected with chaos in the universe, I ask: How is God, the creator, connected as well in the delicate and complex web of interrelationship to either of the universal mess that comprise order in the universe on the one side, and chaos in the universe on the other? Poch Suzara

THE LEARNING CENTER, INC. (TLC)

Dear Landa Bautista,

We can never move the Philippine situation forward unless we first remove its corrupt system of education. The belief that there is a better foreign country to go to after birth, or that there is a better world to go to after death is a silly belief taught in our schools, colleges, and universities that keep the Filipino spiritually twisted as a people and morally distorted as a nation. With all good wishes, Poch Suzara, Chairman, High School Dropout Assn of the Philippines

Preserving Our World

If there is but one religion, why do billions of people differ so much about it? Indeed, in this day and age, if it were to make any sense at all, religion must only learn to deal with the facts that science with integrity provides. In this way, religion becomes good, not evil. To build not walls that divide, but discover principles that unite. In the meantime, we do not have to agree on how the nature of our beliefs are born. We have only to agree on how we must work together to preserve mankind - ourselves living under the nature of our stupid beliefs that need not remain stupid forever. Poch Suzara
