Letter to the Editor on Prayers to Jesus

May 17, 2012 Philippine Daily Inquirer Letter to the Editors Dear Editors: The 1987 Constitution of the Philippines declares: The separation of Church and State shall be inviolable. (Article II, Section 6), and, No law shall be made respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. The free exercise and enjoyment of religious profession and worship, without discrimination or preference, shall forever be allowed. No religious test shall be required for the exercise of civil or political rights. (Article III, Section 5). May I remind our legislators both in the Senate and in the House of Representatives that your prayers to the Lord Jesus Christ before the daily impeachment trial of the chief Justice Renato C. Corona begins is a flagrant violation of the State and Church separation provision as per called for in our Constitution! As a Senior Citizen of our Republic, I ask: in the long history of Filipino affairs ever since we got to be the only Christian country in Asia, have any of our daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly prayers to Jesus Christ helped decrease our poverty as a people; or, helped increase our maturity as a nation? Sincerely, Poch Suzara Makati city 0916-572-4788

Our Sick Society with Sick Values and Sick Beliefs

Modern business in America is a postgraduate course in crookedness, dishonesty, lies, and deceptions, and it has destroyed the moral content of America as a nation. In the Philippines, however, college education is just like the nature of modern business in America. It means the license to be greedy, selfish, stupid, and insane. Otherwise, it is what "success in life" is all about. Or, for the glory of God in hell; or, for the sake of the devil in heaven - how to be corrupt in order to maintain and support our sick society with sick values and sick beliefs. Poch Suzara

Reality as Insanity in the Philippines

We are all born ignorant, not stupid. We are made stupid by education. Indeed, our collective will is due to, if not because of the result of - our stupid system of education. Look how in this already 21st century, our schools, colleges,and universities still teach that in order to save our souls for heaven we must only love God up there via hate of our country and hate of one another down here. Bertrand Russell summarized it neatly for all of us: "Religion encourages stupidity and an insufficient sense of reality." And to think that in the Philippines even daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly reality is mostly based upon historical Catholic insanity. Poch Suzara

The Philippines is a Theocracy, Not a Democracy

The Philippines is NOT a Democracy. It is a Theocracy. It has been and still is since the 16th century - a Church for the Catholics, by the Catholics, and for the Catholics. There is no monument that stands for Filipino dignity and social sanity with great national pride anywhere in the Philippines except the MANILA CATHEDRAL- the monument to priestly historical stupidity.

Like you, I too was born as an Atheist

Every one of us, when we are born, fresh out of the uterus, is an atheist. All babies are born atheist: free from religion. No baby is born as a Catholic, or a Muslim, or a Jew, or a Baptist, or a Hindu. We are all born free and then indoctrinated. When we attain the age of intellectual discretion - we repudiate that indoctrination. That is how we become in the truest sense of the term- BORN-AGAINST ATHEIST. We are back to the purity of our beginning before any of this dreadful theistic philosophy was put into our receptive, but undiscriminating, little minds. Conscience is no inner voice from God. Conscience is merely the combined product of evolution and education. If one were to follow one’s conscience rather than reason, what follows is not only confusion, but also delusion. Atheism Atheism is the world of reason, reality, and freedom. Atheism is human concern, and intellectual honesty to a degree that the religious mind cannot begin to understand. And yet it is much more. Atheism is not an old religion, it is not a new and coming religion, in fact it is not, and never has been, a religion at all. The definition of Atheism is magnificent in its simplicity: Atheism is merely the bed-rock of sanity in a world gone mad. Atheism rises above divinity and puts humanity upon every one else. There are no 'chosen people' in the Atheist philosophy. There are no bended knees in Atheism; No supplications, no prayers; no doctrines; No sacrificial redemptions, no eternal promises; No 'divine' revelations, no sacred writings; No washing in the blood of the lamb; No crusades, no massacres, no holy wars; No inquisition; no dogma, hogma, or pigma. No heaven, no hell, no purgatory, no limbo; No silly rewards, no vindictive punishments; No Christ, and no saviors; no I am who am; No burning bush, no talking donkey; No devils, no ghosts and no gods; No fear of silly divinity, only the courage to work for the good of humanity and to struggle only for the spread of human decency. Globally. YES, I AM AN ATHEIST AND PROUD TO BE ONE. I WAS BORN AN ATHEIST AND I SHALL DIE AN ATHEIST. There are no other options. No other choices. It is impossible to believe in God while coming out of mother’s womb. It is equally impossible to believe in God when one is already dead, buried, and gone out of this world. Poch Suzara

No Read, No Write Jesus

Jesus was a NO READ AND NO WRITE savior. So was His Father. Who was also a NO READ AND NO WRITE creator - look how GOD could only inspire authors to write but could NOT write the bible Himself. Look at Mary, the Mother of Jesus, she too was a NO READ NO WRITE mother. So was Mary's spouse Joseph, a NO READ AND NO WRITE carpenter in his Jewish community. JESUS was a product of an ILLITERATE family. After all, Jesus himself believed that "IN MUCH WISDOM IS MUCH GRIEF, AND THAT INCREASETH KNOWLEDGE INCREASETH SORROW." Ecc. 1:18. Moreover, why bother to learn how to read critically and how to write argumentatively when God, Mary, and Joseph and indeed Jesus preached: "THE WISDOM OF THIS WORLD IS FOOLISHNESS WITH GOD. FOR IT IS WRITTEN, HE TAKETH THE WISE IN THEIR OWN CRAFTINESS." 1 Cor. 3:10 As for me, I was expelled out of La SALLE high school precisely because I never ceased to question the teachings that we must only READ and WRITE as the stupid followers of FAITH, but never, must we ever read or write as the INTELLIGENT MASTERS of REASON! Thus, the index librorum expurgatorius - a list of forbidden books deemed morally and politically harmful by the authority of the Catholic church Jose Rizal was arrested, incarcerated, and publicly executed for exposing himself as a Filipino of intelligent reason who loved the world and loved humanity. He was one great avid reader of banned books and a great writer of great books himself. And yet, in our only Catholic country in Asia since the 16th century, who gives a hoot about the real Jose Rizal - a Filipino of the highest intellect. Indeed, a rare Filipino addicted to the fields of thought - surely a scholar and a gentleman who, at the expense of his own precious life, he tried hard to spread sanity and beauty into our country where the Catholic church with Jesus, Mary and Joseph have only put the horrors of religious insanity that makes for our sick society!

Ordinary Minds, Average Minds, and Great Minds

Confucius said it: ORDINARY MINDS TALK ABOUT PEOPLE. AVERAGE MINDS TALK ABOUT EVENTS. GREAT MINDS TALK ABOUT IDEAS. Sad to see those who often brag that they have acquired college education; or, that they have even studied the philosophy of the Doctors of the church in a Catholic university. And yet, PEOPLE and EVENTS are about the most such ordinary and average minds talk about. Indeed, they are all ready and willing to impart thoughtless mediocrity instead of expressing thoughtful philosophy. Specially for those watching on TV or listening on Radio eager to learn lessons about living the good life - one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. In our print media and in the radio and television industry - instead of great minds, we only have Jesus freaking, jerks and saps. We even have a famous Teditorial on TV. Teddy Locsin Jr. He puts under deadly analysis the insane daily and nightly news with the conclusion that we need never think about it. We are only expected, as the Sick Man of Asia, to laugh with him at the sick mess of our sick society. Poch Suzara

Can Faith Move the Mountain of Stupidity

If the Catholic church has built Western civilization - how come the same Catholic church has never been able to built civilization in the Philippines - the only Catholic country in Asia since the 16th century? Are we Filipinos civilized as a people? No kidding? How come under Catholic teachings we Filipinos still do not know how to love one another as a people; nor do we have the knowledge on how to develop ourselves as a strong and independent nation. We only know how to pray and wait for a Savior. We only know how to love God up there by hating one another down here? We only know how to go to heaven after death and to hell with life on this earth after birth! In the meantime, if we have the knowledge on how to move mountain, then surely we have no need of faith to move mountain. Since the 16h century however - the Catholic church is still teaching us Filipinos to believe that only faith and faith alone can move mountain! Well, we are already in the 21st century? So how come we Filipinos are still dominated and ruled by the mountain of Catholic corruption in this only Catholic country in Asia? Poch Suzara

Holy Books of the Great Religions of the World

May 8, 2012 Philippine Daily Inquirer Letter to the Editors, Dear Editors, All the great religions of the world have their holy books, which are regarded as "divinely inspired. The Jews have their Talmud; the Muslims, their Koran; the Buddhists, their Sutras; the Confucians, their Analects; the Taoists; their Tao-Te-Ching; the Hindus, their Bhagavad Gita; the Vedantis, their Upanishads; etc. I ask: why should one group of religious faithfools be regarded as "inspired" authors or prophets or Messiahs of God? While those active at hallucinating are known as the "crack-pots," "faith-healers," or, in the Philippines, more known as "the chief Justice of the Supreme Court" or "senators," "congressmen," "governors," and "mayors?" Also known as "Bishops," "Cardinals," "Ministers," "Evangelists," not to mention in our schools, colleges, and universities known as "Teachers," and "Professors." In the meantime, our own silly bible teaches us 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 in him." 1 John 2:15 Yours sincerely, Poch Suzara San Lorenzo Village Makati City, Philippines

Intellectual Honesty by Unbelievers

Intellectual honesty comes from the power of reason via the search of the truth. Per contra - habitual dishonesty comes from silly blind faith in the silly holy bible - a book written by superstitious primitives as inspired authors of God. In the meantime, an unbeliever is usually a man who questions everything that the believer takes for granted. What is wrong with most believers? They usually believe things at so dear a prize to pay: the mindless surrender of the self via the mutilation of the intellect. Poch Suzara

Does God in Heaven or the Devil in Hell Need more Sick Souls

Since the death of Jesus on the cross and His resurrection more than a 100 BILLION PEOPLE have already lived and died on this earth. Let's assume 50 BILLION SOULS of of such dead people made it to heaven with God; and 50 BILLION SOULS of dead people made it to hell with the devil. Are we suppose to believe that both GOD and the DEVIL are still so thrilled and excited playing around with the endless SALVATION/DAMNATION GAME to win for the either sick souls? Both are still hungry for more silly souls? They cannot exists without souls? For what? For breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Especially eating souls like the soul of a Poch Suzara? I ask: when will we start to seriously look at the horrors in the hear and now happening to the fellow-citizens of our poor and backward country - the only country in Asia still waiting for the Second Coming of Jesus to remedy the historical ills of our sick society still powered by sick values and sick beliefs such in the existence of sick souls of Filipnos to be damned for hell or to be saved for heaven!

I do Pray Daily to Satan

"But who prays for Satan? Who in eighteen centuries, has had the common humanity to pray for the one sinner that needed it most?" - Mark Twain I don't know about you Mark Twain; but I do pray daily to Satan to please help God who, after all these past centuries, still know not what exactly He is doing! - Poch Suzara

It Matters NOT to God

It matters not to God whether you are an atheist or an agnostic. What, however, is endlessly important to God is that at worst, you are a Catholic; or, at best, a lunatic. After all, God gets more thrill out of anything in this world that is perpetually satanic. Poch Suzara

We welcome the pain of Problems

"As Benjamin Franklin said, 'Those things that hurt, instruct.' It is for this reason that wise people learn not to dread but actually welcome problems and actually welcome the pain of problems." M. Scott Peck, Psychiatrist If I may add, there is neither spiritual growth as a man or as a woman nor intellectual development as a human being without problems. Therefore we should welcome the pain of problems. Good news make us weak. Poch Suzara, Atheist

Jose Rizal to stay DEAD in the Philippines

"The death sentence is a necessary and efficacious means for the Church to attain its ends when obstinate heretics disturb the ecclesiastical order." Pope Leo X111 (Vincenzo Pecci, 1810-1903) ---------- HELLO YOU KILLERS OF JOSE RIZAL - a heretic. HOW COME YOU ARE STILL HERE not only as a Church but also IN CONTROL OF FILIPINO MINDS AND HEARTS IN THE PHILIPPINES AS OWNERS OF SCHOOLS, COLLEGES, AND UNIVERSITIES; HOSPITALS AND BANKS; NEWSPAPERS AND TV STATIONS; and OTHER COMMERCIAL ENTERPRISES IN THIS ONLY CATHOLIC COUNTRY IN ASIA SINCE THE 16TH CENTURY!Poch Suzara

Happy Old Age

I got to be 76 years old this year. Friends and relatives are wondering why I am, as ever, still bullish against insane religion that's keeping us Filipinos spiritually poor as a people; and morally backwar as a nation! Indeed, both religion and politics in cahoots together keeping us Filipinos deprived away from the wonders of science only to stay famous as the Sick Man of Asia! Well, old age, like any other age, is the time to struggle away from silly biblical revelation. It is time to be involved with intelligent evolution. Indeed, human life on this earth should be about the struggle for humanity to enjoy human decency locally and to enjoy terrestrial sanity globally. Precisely, to put away all that silly business of divinity always in cahoots with deviltry. No doubt, it is a waste of time. It is an impossible dream. But my dear reader, what about you - how do you waste your precious time? You are accomplishing WHAT in this God-forsaken world of ours? Brief, short, and fleeting as life is on this earth! I said it before, I say it again: instead of looking forward to a better life to come after death, it makes more sense to try and leave this world a better place than how we found it. Not in the material, but in the humanitarian sense. Otherwise, there will be no reason for our having lived. In the meantime, today may be the last day of my life. Whatever or however the case may be, I am, as always, still happily singing loud and clear - my favorite song: "For, what is a man, what has he got, if not himself then he has not, to say the things he truly feels, and not the words of one who knees, the record shows I took the blows, and did it MY WAY! It is, in this way, that I continue to be a man of vision, ambition, and revolution. I have more than enough ingredients to carry on my lifetime struggle against the evils of revelation. Poch Suzara

The One and Only Verse I respect written in the Bible

Here is the one and only verse I have the highest respect written in the bible: "You shall not follow a crowd to do evil; neither shall you testify in court to side with a multitude to pervert justice." Exodus 23:2 As for the rest written in the Old Testament and in the New Testament they should be totally thrown out the window. I did! In the meantime, I repeat with Dan Barker: Atheism is a worldwide movement today without followers. We atheists, in our respective field of work, are all leaders! Poch Suzara, Atheist

Filth and Pornography in the Holy Bible

“Because of you I will rebuke your descendants; I will smearon your faces the dung from your festival sacrifices, and you will be carried off with it." Malachi 2:3 "THOU SHALT EAT IT AS BARLEY CAKES, AND THOU SHALT BAKE IT WITH DUNG THAT COMETH OUT OF MAN, IN THEIR SIGHT." Exek. 4:1 "hath he not sent me to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss withyou?" (II Kings 18:27 "Yet she multiplied her whoredoms, in calling to remembrance the days of her youth, wherein she had played the harlot in the land of Egypt. For she doted upon their paramours, whose flesh is as the flesh of asses, and whose issue is like the issue of horses." Exek 23:19-21 "And lusted after her paramours there, whose members were like those of donkeys, and whose emission was like that of stallions." Ezekiel 23: 21, NRSV) If a man find a damsel that is a virgin, which is not betrothed, and lay hold on her, and lie with her, and they be found; Then the man that lay with her shall give unto the damsel's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife; because he hath humbled her, he may not put her away all his days. Deut 22:28-29 And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive? ... Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves. Numbers 31:15-18 Comment: it is indeed despicable how in this already 21st century college educated Filipinos still believe the bible as a holy book written by inspired authors of God. As a matter of fact, the bible is really a lot of BIBULLSHIT that should have already been flushed down the TOILET centuries ago. Poch Suzara

Come on you Frightened Jesus Freaks

Come on you frightened Jesus freaks. WAKE UP! There is poverty of the worst kind:
The poverty of the mind and heart. It is what our schools, colleges, and universities are mostly about: DO NOT THINK. JUST BELIEVE.

And famous as we Filipinos are as the SICK MAN OF ASIA, we are more proud and
ready to protect and defend the ways of our stupid BELIEVING; especially for the glory of Jesus up there. Hardly do we ever do intelligent THINKING for the sake of courageously establishing common Filipino decency down here! Poch Suzara

George Carlin on Religion

In the Bullshit Department, a businessman can't hold a candle to a clergyman. 'Cause I gotta tell you the truth, folks. When it comes to bullshit, big-time, major league bullshit, you have to stand in awe of the all-time champion of false promises and exaggerated claims, religion. No contest. No contest. Religion. Religion easily has the greatest bullshit story ever told. Think about it:

"Religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time! But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He always needs money! He's all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise, somehow just can't handle money! Religion takes in billions of dollars, they pay no taxes, and they always need a little more. Now, you talk about a good bullshit story." Holy Shit! Poch Suzara

We All Need Jesus

There is no bigger hypocrite than the person who pretends he doesn't need Jesus. Phil Star, April 15, 2012 Oh yes, indeed, we all need Jesus, especially the officials in the government. They all need Jesus to forgive them of their sins against God and to forgive them of their crimes against the people who, like dumbstruck idiots, voted for them to be in government. Poch Suzara

I am a Plagiarist, Scholar, and a Researcher

If you copy the works of one author, you are a plagiarist. If you copy the works of two authors, you are a researcher. If you copy from the works of three authors you are a scholar. If, however, you copy from the works of hundreds of authors you are a plagiarist, a researcher, a scholar all rolled into one Poch Suzara - a high school expelled student. Indeed, I copy from the works of hundreds of famous authors. And aside therefore from being a plagiarist, a scholar, and a researcher, I am also a high-school expelled writer. In my writings, I freely copy from the works of my favorite authors, historians, philosophers, and scientists. These great thinkers of the world have inspired in me to stand on their shoulders. Indeed, thanks to them, I managed to learn how too see wider, how to view higher, and how to fathom deeper, in that I may be enlightened, not forever be frightened like the dumbstruck religious teachers I was blessed with in La Salle grade school and high school years! I love the freedom of expression and I enjoy copying from many authors. To name a few: Bertrand Russell, Will Durant, Carl Sagan, Robert G. Ingersoll, Thomas Paine, Friedrich Nietzche Mark Twain, Charles Darwin, Alvin Toffler, Richard Dawkins, George H. Smith, John Horgan, Stephen Hawking, Lee Eisler, Clarence Darrow, Arthur Schopenhauer, Voltaire, Madlyn O’Hair, Jeremy Rifkin, H.L. Mencken, George Bernard Shaw, Lloyd Graham, Socrates, Noam Chomsky, Sam Harris, Dan Barker, Jean Meslier, Bishop John Shelby Spong, Hypatia, St. Augustine, Christopher Hitchens, Teodoro A. Agoncillo, Jose Rizal; and, indeed, many more such as Matthew, Luke, Mark, and John of the Holy bible who inspired in me to never be afraid to question authority as it always inspired by mediocrity, perpetually. Oh yes, there is nothing original in the works of authors. Except for mathematical logic, they all copy from each other as their various sources are inextricably mixed with other points of view. After all, there is no such thing as the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. It only looks new and fresh and logical; but it is not. For example, my own writings on atheism are mostly derived from what’s revealed in the holy bible as the bible, seriously read, has been and still is the most potent reason why we must all trust the simple fact that man's greatest of professions is the search of the truth as no truth, as yet, has ever been discovered! - Poch Suzara Google# Facebook# Twitter# Atheists# __._,_.___ Posted by: poch suzara

God as a Divine Monster

A God who tells Noah: TO HELL WITH LOVING YOUR NEIGHBORS. SAVE INSTEAD THE ANIMALS - is not a God but a divine monster. Never, will I ever believe, love, worship, and adore such a divine disgrace - the savior of animals, not the savior of the human race.

In the meantime, why should we listen and be afraid of such a God who tells us how
to raise our own children when He himself had drowned to death his own children? Poch

Jesus Christ - Our Savior

Jesus Christ said, "And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive" (Math. 21:22). Each and every day, millions of believing Filipinos pray daily to God to "give us this day our daily bread," and to "lead us not into temptation." We also pray daily to "Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death, amen." As we, however, continue to be spiritually fucked as a people and even more morally fucked as a nation - would it not be adding insult to injury if we were yet expected to blame ourselves for our daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly stupidity behind our childish religiosity faithfully since the 16th century?

The Silly Fear of Death

“I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.” ― Mark Twain “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. Many a man has borne himself proudly on the scaffold; surely the same pride should teach us to think truly about man's place in the world. Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cosy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own." ― Bertrand Russell "If after my own death, I shall have to be with God in hell, or have to be with the Devil in heaven, or have to be with Jesus in Purgatory - no way, Jose. Over my dead body. I'd rather stay buried in the cemetery with my precious books forever and ever till the end of time and space. - Poch Suzara

Don't Be a Useless Believer; Be a Useful Thinker

Nothing is more dangerous than an idea when you only have one. - Alain Chantier If I may add, this is precisely what is wrong with our formative years in school: Do not think. Just believe. Never mind the beauty of fresh thought or the power of ideas; especially to challenge the lies and deceptions that keep us Filipinos spiritually poor as a people, and intellectually bankrupt as a nation. In the meantime, the search for new and fresh ideas under creativity is by far the noblest of all human activities. Poch Suzara

SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE

If you believe that there is a separation of Church and State in the Philippines, you might as well also believe in the existence of the separation between insanity and stupidity. As a matter of historical fact, the union of Church and State in the Philippines is just like a good Catholic marriage: what God has united, let no man put asunder,-till death do us part. Both the Church and State protect each other, the former with forgiveness of sins and the latter with tax exemption laws. 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. Combine the two horrors inextricably together and we have what is known as Christian values and beliefs more known as the government off, buy, and fool the people under the slogan that it is MORE FUN AND SAFE IN THE PHILIPPINES. Indeed, the separation of Church and State in the Philippines is more than just a farce and a fraud, but also a charade of lies, --a parade of deceptions. Look seriously at our senators as judges in the impeachment trial to dump the Chief Justice Renato Corona out of office for betrayal of public trust and culpable violation of the Constitution. They start the trial not as leaders of our country, but like sinners themselves with prayer to God for the forgiveness of their sins and crimes. The need for religion in the Philippines will end when we Filipinos in our schools are taught to be strong and sensible enough to govern ourselves not as religious fanatic Catholics or what-not, but as self-respecting Filipinos, i.e., who believe in the power of reason and not believe in words written long time ago, by ignorant men who did not know what we know today and in all probability were influenced by the barbarity of a primitive age. Meanwhile, our officials in the Philippine government and the church hierarchy have always enjoyed an illicit secret affair together. They have illegitimate children otherwise more popularly known as "politicians" of the State, and the "theologians" of the Church. Such "leaders" are never lively with intelligent power of ideas for growth and maturity. They are only deadly with the power of daily prayer producing nothing but an obnoxious odor in the air - the bad smell of the Philippines dying as the Sick Nation of Asia. Hypocrisy and indifference to truth make corruption acceptable as part of our national defects. It is sad to see our government officials in cahoots with church officials devote so much faith in increasing and justifying such traditional nonsense. I said it before, I say it again: our leaders drunk with power are destitute of wisdom, and so long as they enjoy the glory of popularity - our country will be devoid of sanity and beauty on the one hand; and, on the other hand, filled with more of the same old misery and poverty perpetually. In the meantime, while there is more creativity in diversity, there is nothing but stupid religiosity in uniformity. And what we have in our sick country is the sick uniformity even in the art of bribery. We have yet to see our way clear that the bribe-giver is no worse than the bribe-taker because there is always in between, the bribe-fixer! There is also the fun of vote-buying, vote-selling, and vote block fixing. Indeed, again, when it comes to the life of crime and sin, graft and corruption - IT IS MORE FUN AND SAFE IN THE PHILIPPINES. There is a tremendous need for the rehabilitation of our damaged nation. If we ever hope to succeed in our revolution against political illusion, against religious delusion, and against social confusion - we must first see to it that there is no more divine revelation at the foundation of our sick and corrupt system of education. No more Immaculate Misconception; no more public prayer transformation; no more revealed Truth that has never been revealed. We need only science and technology and the wonders of its lively evolution. Millions of Filipinos ask: is there hope for our country? My answer is Yes, but first we must allow the nation's youth to learn during their formative years in school to believe not in a weird foreigner more known as Jesus, our alleged savior, but rather to believe instead in living decent life inspired by love of country and guided by the power of knowledge. Indeed, to feel the pleasures of mental growth and positive material achievement, to live, to learn and to love,- happy, generous, and expansive; thoughtful when others are happy, and even more thoughtful when others are not. These beauties should be permanent fixtures in the hearts and minds of our nation's youth after they go through many years of education in our schools, colleges, and universities. In the ultimate analysis, if we can set aside intellectual cowardice against the courage of ideas, there is much more to hope for our country. Indeed, it is high time for us Filipinos to accept the challenge to work for ourselves as a people. After all, this world is the only world we have. The only world where we can, here and now, create a paradise for ourselves as thinking people happy and proud of our existence with self-respect and dignity not as frightened Catholics, but as brave citizens of our Republic.

God is NOT all-knowing

GOD obviously did NOT know the past, the present, or the future. God had to test Adam and Eve because God did not know just exactly how Adam and Eve will pass or fail the silly test; that they may be found guilty or innocent of the Original Sin. As if, Adam or Eve ever originated anything to begin with. Too bad God did not also test the free will of the TALKING SERPENT; and to find out as well what sort of language it spoke. It must have been the sick language of the Sick Serpent of Asia - taglish. Poch Suzara

I don't Blame. but Thank God I am an Atheist

God inspired the Talking Serpent to bring down Adam and eve to be guilty of the Original Sin. The Talking Serpent's mission was a great success. Then God blamed Adam and Eve for being guilty of the Original Sin even if neither Adam nor Eve never originated anything in this world to begin with. For my part, I thank God, I thank the Talking Serpent, and I thank the Holy Bible lessons and messages, and I also thank a lot of you active members of this forum - you all make me proud and happy that I am an ATHEIST - indeed, I have no need for an invisible means of support.

God Will Save me JOKE

There was a small village by a river. One day in monsoon the villagers noticed that the river was swelling and the village was about to be flooded. Everyone left the village for safe ground, except for one man. He said, 'I have faith in God. He will save me.' The water level began to rise. When it rose up to his knees a car passed by and offered to pick him up. The man refused. 'Save me God', he prayed. The car left. When the water level rose up to his waist a boat came by and offered to help him. Again the man refused. The boat left. Again the man prayed to God to save him. When the water level rose up to shoulders a helicopter came to rescue him. Again the man refused, and kept on praying feverishly to God. Finally, he drowned. When he reached his creator he said, 'I had complete faith in you. Why did you ignore my prayers and let me drown?' God replied,' Who do you think sent you the car, the boat and the helicopter?'

"No kidding God," the man should have replied: "Who created the FLOOD to begin with? Poch Suzara

Filipinos Living and Working in foreign countries

Australia was founded 200 years ago by British convicts and heretics. Look at Australia today - one of the most progressive countries in the civilized world today. The Philippines was founded 400 years ago by Spanish friars all of them Catholics. Look at the Philippines today - the poorest spiritually, backward morally, and socially insane - country in all of Asia today. The ticklish part about this historical tidbit is the painful fact that tens of thousands of Filipinos have already migrated to Australia. They are enjoying in Australia a higher standard of living and indeed - thinking. And yet, these Filipinos are still in the habit of praying to God to "give us this day our daily bread, and to "lead us not into temptation." Also praying daily to Mary, Mother of God, to pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death, amen." Thus, millions of Filipinos in the Philippines have absolutely nothing to learn from Filipinos living and working in Australia blessed with the power of human knowledge on how to achieve growth as a people, and maturity as a nation. I said it before, I say it again: if only Filipinos, living and working today in some 198 countries around the world would only learn the ways and means from such countries. Especially in matters of good government, culture, employment, work ethics, discipline, art of learning, system of education, health as a people, and wealth as nation, etc, and pass on such knowledge back home - the Philippines could sooner catch up in the race for human civilization, instead of just being still historically stuck in the rat-race for eternal salvation. In the meantime, for the glory of God up there, we Filipnos are active with FREE WILL than we are creative and productive with GOOD WILL for our country down here. Our productive factories are more into producing not goods, but babies. Indeed, we freely produce three babies every minute or 1.5 million babies yearly for the glory of God in our land. It also explains why poverty, not prosperity, generates the ways and means of our sick society endlessly inspired by both divinity and deviltry otherwise more known as the great success of Christianity in our God-forsaken country.

The Bible written by Inspired Fishermen of God

"The most serious doubt that has been thrown on the authenticity of the biblical miracles is the fact that most of the witnesses in regard to them were fishermen.
- Arthur "Pitcher" Binstead

"In the Philippines, however, biblical miracles are all accepted as historically factual. Especially by college-educated Filipinos as products of Catholic education in La Salle, Ateneo, San Beda, Letran, UST, Assumption college, St. Scholastica, AIM, Miriam college, etc, etc; in fact, more than 1,000 of such schools, colleges, and universities own and operated by the Catholic church in this only Catholic country in Asia.

The Jews are not Christians nor Catholics

He called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out evil spirits and to heal every disease and sickness. - Matthew 10:1

Unfortunately, the apostles of Jesus were NOT given the authority to convert God's own chosen people - the Jews - into becoming Christians or Catholics. Only the Filipinos to be converted in the Philippine to enjoy the drama as the Sick Man of Asia. Poch Suzara

Hey, Poch

Hey, Poch, it doesn't take much to reach someone who is in tune with you. The object of your benevolence can quickly understand the whole music you intend to sing at the very first note you strike, and he finishes the entire song in his head in cadence with your beat. Surprised? Yes, you would be. It was easy for the object to follow you. Why? Because, the song, unknown to your object's consciousness had been with his subconscious, already partially composed at the time you came to him. It most likely came to him like it did to you, because of similar exposure and experience, that is, you were both exposed to a similar environment - subjected to similar conditions in life and profession – culture, religion, schooling, needs, wants and aspirations. By responding in the most admirable responsible manner to my written note of concern, you did a great justice to yourself, and I bet you know it. Your message of understanding made you a lot bigger than I last read you. You quickly redeemed whatever you may have lost which was not much really, not as great as what a closed-minded Christian have already lost in his life. For sure, yes. [Huwag po sana magalit ang mga hindi closed-minded] You are right of course in saying how puny any damage you may have caused the forum compared to the damage wrought by the Catholic Church in its unchecked wayward hundred of years of keeping its flock "innocent" of the true ways of the faith, and making them "ignorant" of their real potentials for greatness as a "believing" and loyal people to their God. I have to agree to a large extend of these damages and very much reminded of it every time I pass the wretched barong barongs of our poor, seeing before me the people - skinny, dirty, ill clothed and poorly sheltered in patched up houses. Their state of health unmistakably tells me how little food they are able to eat. You certainly have an excellent ability to describe in words what evils and horrors you knew the Church had unknowingly or purposely done to its flock and you felt compelled by your kind conscience, learned early from your Christian teachers and parents, to sympathize and it drove you with reckless abandon to expose them in the hope that the rightful changes might be done soon before everything is lost - by primarily attacking the clergy and the unknowing, docile and passive people, urging them to wake up and see the world as you have seen them, and for the love of their Jesus and the strength of their faith make amends and do right! There is absolutely nothing wrong there. You could not stop yourself as courageous Rizal himself could not stop when he made his expose' in two agitating "conscience" stirring books that caused vindictive annoying thoughts and great shame to the Spanish Friars and Authorities who were the evil perpetrators then, and the objects of Rizal's wounded heart and his vicious deadly weapons – his pens. But like the passive Filipinos in Rizal’s time, whose minds were held captive by the powerful Church, the same attitude of passivity met your honorable intentions. This is largely because they are ignorant of your song, don’t know how to read the strange but authentic notes of awakening, of liberty, of the truly free; and if a few do, they robotically continued along the notes of old familiar music that give them much ease, comfort, peace and no sore throat. The new, strange and unknown music scare our people of the faith. It is not a mystery why if we know how they were indoctrinated. The indoctrination helps very well in keeping the flock from wandering into new, strange and unknown territories. This is precisely why you and Rizal had experienced a lot of resistance in your quest to educate and persuade.

In Rizal’s case, he was smart enough to know from experience of the insurmountable quest in the time frame he envisioned a successful revolution. He knew the date of the proposed revolution wasn’t his reckoned time, so he turned down the invitations for him to join the revolution. I, too, could not wholeheartedly join your cause, no matter how much I am convinced that the Church has to change rabbit fast instead of turtle fast that we see it move in what we think is the new and more progressive directions. Slomo itong Church, dahil nga ayaw nila makamalay ang tao na sila ay nagkamali. Hindi maari masabi ng tao, “Aba, kalian lang ginawa, babaguhin kaagad?” Dahan dahan hanggang makalimot sa tagal at hindi na mainit ang ulo ng taong bayan. Alam ko ang malaking pagkukulang ng ating mamayan. Matagal din akong social activist. Even those who pride themselves to be learned, highly “educated” daw sila dahil nga may mga diploma, may masters at PhDs. Pero asaan naman nila naipasok ang mga ito – loyalty, love of country, patriotism, nationalism, subsidiarity, love for neighbors, community involvement, solidarity, etc,, na siyang dapat matutuhan at gawin ng responsibling taong bayan? How were the desire to build a great nation taught and inculcated? Ah, was it ever taught? You, my dear friend, Poch, by your dedication and will to help re-educate our Christian people, is not only in the right frame of mind, in the right track, but most of all, by your act you are showing everyone what a truly educated Filipino is all about. Forget the once in a while silakbo, it’s not an everyday happening. Besides,It is something that sticks for long until old age in many because we were wrongly educated to know, learn and apply it from the INFORMAL education of experience – exposing the young mind to people around them with this highly catching SILAKBO disease/syndrome. What more unwanted traits did we catch that stick like glue until our senior age? You do well my friend, even if you are misunderstood. When I say misunderstood it does not mean referring to you as a failure. It only means you have it in you to succeed once you explore different tact. It does not mean that you will always be a failure. The next time around should be more telling as a success story. It is a different ball game we are in now, at our age. It calls for accepting that the background has radically changed and understanding the need to go with the change. Often we find ourselves irritated when we realize that we need to find new ways to do our usual tasks and unable to find them. Hindi katulad ng dati. We are fortunate that we have freed our minds because we are quick to adapt. Pity those closed minds who have shut them to your fine music because they’ll find it much harder to adapt. They failed to understand that you are only trying your best to make it easy for them to adapt to the ever changing world, they who, at this time, know only to outright reject you. Frankly, I feel this new world of ours awaits another Christ to make a large dent of a change. I don’t mean the Christ who promised to return 2012 years ago. The new Christ must be able to sing a new song, one that no one has heard of yet but one that has been sought and waited for a long time now and have been etched well into our subconscious. When he comes, you and I may find it easy to understand and we will sing his song in chorus. But what of the others? The question speaks clearly of our love for our neighbors, eh, Poch? Take care, pal Ogie

Lies are far more Damaging than Vulgar Language

"If a man would follow, today, the teachings of the Old Testament, would be a criminal. If he would follow strictly the teachings of the New, he would be insane." - Robert Ingersoll Another word for "insane" is to feel blessed by God as we are THE SICK MAN OF ASIA - the frightened men and women - products of schools, colleges, and universities own and operated by the Catholic church in the Philippines. Such frightened men and women are more horrified by harmless "vulgar language" than they should be more terrified by harmful "vulgar beliefs and vulgar values" keeping us Filipinos intellectually poor and spiritually sick as a people and morally sick and economically bankrupt as a nation. Consider in this already 21st century. We Filipinos are still taught to believe that among the countries of Asia, the Philippines has been and still is the one and only country in Asia that's always been BLESSED WITH CHRISTIAN VALUES AND BELIEFS by God and his angels in heaven through the disciples of Christ our Lord down here on earth. Thanks for writing. I much appreciate your thoughts! May I however, say, with all due truthfulness, that the damage I have done in this forum by my foal and vulgar language is so puny, so petty as compared to the historical damage done to Filipino minds and hearts since the 16th century by the wealth, power, and glory of Christianity in the Philippines! Indeed, the truth hurts, but lies are far more damaging and can last for a thousand years. One thing I should get credit for in this forum - I never lied to any of you! Poch Suzara

God and His One and Only Son Jesus Christ

“The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully. ― Richard Dawkins, The God Delusion

If I may add, in our schools, colleges, and universities, we were all educated to believe that such a God had also one begotten Son more known as Jesus Christ - our Savior. The Savior of the world. - Poch Suzara

Lee Kuan Yew - Leader and an Atheist

Lee Kwan Yew - the Prime Minister who changed Singapore from poverty to prosperity. He was not born-raised-educated as a Christian. In fact, he was an atheist and a radical non-believer of the faith. He was never inspired by the Word of God as written in the holy bible. Yet with sheer guts, intelligence, and discipline, he was able to transform Singapore from a hell of a place into an Asian paradise blessed with
higher standard of living and indeed, thinking.

How come our own Philippine government officials, who are all born-raised-educated as Catholics or as Christians, all inspired by God, are all good, unfortunately, only good for nothing? Specially when it comes to growth as a people and maturity as a nation?

In the meantime, the Singaporean youth, in their formative years, are all enjoying the benefits of scientific creativity in their schools, colleges, and universities. Indeed, they are learning to enhance the benefits of science and technology. In order to bring forth more creativity of prosperity into their social and economic reality in Asia.

Could the Philippines ever catch up stuck with its culture of corruption, the culture of praying and believing with Singapore? A city-State way ahead due to its culture of high standard of living as the result of hard learning, hard working, and hard thinking? Poch Suzara

We are all Made of Dust

Nobody is perfect; but however scientifically well-informed many of us have become, the creationists would still insists that we all came from dust and unto dust we shall all return. But really, if the Creator made man in his own image and likeness, it follows that the Creator too is made of dust. Now, isn’t it rather silly to pray to a Creator who is made of dust to save our silly souls that’s made of dust too? Poch Suzara

Aimless as a People and Rudderless as a Nation

There is No Christianity. Only Christianities

Ironically, the truth behind the REVEALED TRUTH has yet to be REVEALED. Otherwise, why are there hundreds of thousand sects of Christianity misunderstanding and fighting and hating each other over what is the true nature of the revealed truth? In the meantime, where is the Universal God who has yet to reveal, for the whole of mankind, one universal religion to hold and embrace and have faith in peacefully and harmoniously? It is glaringly obvious, if not alarmingly translucent that not all of the bible scholars were inspired by the same Holy Spirit; for, if they were, they would all belong as members of the same church today. Throughout the world, there are more than 100,000 different sects of Christianity each hating the other due to, if not because of, the failure to mutually understand bible messages. The great religions of the world, especially Christianity, Judaism, and Islam have enemies. No, not only the animosity of one against the other. The enemy is religion itself. This is due to faith in a local divinity for the sake of spreading religious stupidity globally. To think that after all of these past thousands of years with God here, and God there, and God everywhere - the world today is still in a spiritual mess, still in a moral mess, and still in a religious mess - due to fear here, ignorance there, and the Unrevealed Truth on the march everywhere. Take a good look at Christianity. There is no such religion existing known as Christianity, only CHRISTIANITIES. Indeed, overshadowing the minor protestant religions - Lutheran, Evangelical, Anglican, Methodist, Presbyterian, Baptist, Pentecostal, Mormon, Adventists, Unitarian, Episcopalian, Iglesia Ni Cristo, el Shaddai, Dating Daan, Jesus is Lord Movement, Tamang Daan, Iglesia de Pocholo, Iglesia de Rangus at si Flangus, etc. etc. is the major religion known as the Catholic religion. In Northern Ireland, the Catholics and the Protestants have not ceased hating and fighting each other since the 14th century. And to think that Jesus, the Son of God, the Savior of the world, was to have fixed the troubles of our world during his first coming. Now we are told he will soon return to complete and accomplish the mission with His Second Coming. - Poch Suzara Google# Facebook# Twitter# Atheists#

Jesus last Words on the Cross

"Jesus' last words on the cross, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" hardly seem like the words of a Savior who planned to save the world, specially save Filipinos in the Philippines - the Sick Man of Asia.

It doesn't take a poch Suzara to figure out there is something fishy here. Considering Jesus died in a foreign country 2,000 years ago, and then resurrected from death - proceeded to go to heaven and nobody, but nobody has seen or heard directly from Him even since. Poch Suzara

Lee Kuan Yew - ATHEIST - NON-believer

The man who transformed a hell of a sort into a heaven on earth in a couple of decades celebrated his 87th birthday last week on September 16. In an interview given to a journalist last week, Lee almost ridiculed those who seek strength and solace in religion.

The Prime Minister of Singapore from its founding in 1965 until stepped aside in 1990, Mr. Lee built what he called ‘a first-world oasis in a third-world region'. The world praised him for his incorruptibility and efficiency.

In reply to the interviewer, he said, referring to afterlife, ‘What is next? I do not know. Nobody has ever come back'.

Agnostic and pragmatic at all times, he said, on being asked how he dealt with pains in life, ‘How do I comfort myself? Well. I say life is just like that'. Talking of his sick, bed-ridden wife, Lee said that from time to time, his mind went back to the happy days they were up and about together.

He said he felt a gradual decline in energy and vitality in old age and added generally, every year, he knew he was not on the same level as the previous year. Lee then declared his life philosophy, ‘But that's life'. "Criticize me but I don't believe in miracles, psychics and soothsayers or even afterlife." Poch Suzara

Why we are poor as a people and backward as a Nation

Poverty is the symptom: slavery is the disease. We are not enslaved because we are poor; on the contrary, we are poor because we are enslaved. - Bertrand Russell I said it before, I say it again: via our schools, colleges, and universities - we were educated to have faith not in our country, but to have faith only in Christianity. A people, therefore, who are enslaved to believe that this life in this world is nothing compared to that better world to come with God and Jesus in heaven after death is a people who value not life after birth, but only have faith in life after death. And such traditional religious horror is what keeps us Filipinos poor spiritually, bankrupt morally, stupid politically, impoverished economically, frightened traditionally, and backward historically. In the meantime, it is quite clear that Filipino couples are probably the most PROLIFIC producers of babies not only in Asia, but in the whole world! Poch Suzara

Jesus - the Confused Savior of the World

Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jews. But now my kingdom is from another place." John 18:36 But then, in another verse, Jesus also said: "But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them--bring them here and kill them in front of me." Luke 19:27 Such was the confused Jesus more known as the Savior of the world! In the meantime, during my formative years in La Salle grade school, I was frightened to believe that God made man in his own image and likeness. In high school, however, I asked: Why would God inspire men,who were created in his own image and likeness, get Jesus - His only begotten Son - to be crucified dead on a cross in order for him to be the Savior of men already created in image and likeness of his own Father - God? The answer - I was thrown out. Expelled out of La Salle high school. Amen! Praise the Lord! Poch Suzara

Science and the Scientific Way of Thinking

Science is simply common sense at its best, that is, rigidly accurate in observation, and merciless to fallacy in logic. - Thomas H. Huxley It is not what the man of science believes that distinguishes him but how and why he believes it. His beliefs are tentative, not dogmatic; they are based upon evidence, not on authority or intuition. - Bertrand Russell "There is no other species on the Earth that does science. It is so far, entirely a human invention, evolved by natural selection in the cerebral cortex for one simple reason: it works. It is not perfect. It can be misused. It is only a tool. But it is by far the best tool we have, self-correcting, ongoing, applicable to everything. It 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. We must understand the Cosmos as it is and not confuse with how we wish it to be." - Carl Sagan Science is replacing the fear of the unknown with the courage to question everything even what is already known. After all, the TRUTH has yet to be found and the search of the truth is man's most noble of professions! - Poch Suzara

Birth and Death Reality

Sir: what, in God's name, are you talking about? Which reality are you referring to? The only reality that is fully recognized by science is this: Each unfolding reality contains the seeds of its own destruction and the embryo of a new reality that will replace it! In the meantime, we know absolutely nothing of the reality of life that comes after birth, how in hell should we know anything about the reality of life, if any, that comes after death? And if there reality after death, isn't it also subject of its own destruction and the new reality to replace it? Poch Suzara

Life After Death Nonsense

After death, with what eyes shall we see, with what ears shall we hear, with what nose shall we smell, with what palate shall we taste, with what skin shall we feel, with what sex organ shall we fuck. Wake up, man! In the intellectual realm with what brain already dead shall we be able to think? Our identity and memory are functions of the brain. When we die, the brain decays. What then of our memory and identity? We atheists are more concern and attentive with life after birth. Fuck life after death - there isn't any. Indeed, immortality is the condition of a dead moron who does not believe that he is already dead, buried, and gone! In the meantime, listen carefully to Mark Twain: "I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it." Poch Suzara

My teacher - Bertand Russell

Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970). Philosopher, mathematician, educational and sexual reformer, professor, pacifist, atheist, prolific letter writer, author and columnist. Bertrand Russell was one of the most influential and widely known intellectual figures of the twentieth century. In 1950 he was awarded the Noble Prize for Literature for his extensive contributions to world literature and for his "rationality and humanity, as a fearless champion of free speech and free thought in the West." It is sad to know that the books written by Bertrand Russell have been listed too in Vatican's Index of Prohibited Books. To think that this is the same Bertrand Russell who is known throughout the world for his messages in his struggle for world sanity: "RENOUNCE WAR OR PERISH! "WORLD PEACE OR UNIVERSAL DEATH!

Free Will - something partial, not total

Human Intelligence greater than Hope

"The youth is the hope of our future," Rizal steadfastly believed. With due respect to and admiration for our Jose Rizal, may I however, add: Yes, the youth seriously educated in grade school, high school, and in college to learn the values of science and the power behind the scientific way of thinking. In this way, our youth will be far more constructive in the development of our land than all nonsense behind the silly religious hope of our future going on in our country ever since Christianity arrived into our shores some 400 years ago..

After all, far greater than hope is the development of human mind and heart, indeed, the power of new and fresh ideas - which is what, in brief, what the scientific way of thinking is all about! Poch Suzara

Leprosy Still Existing in the World Today

Wisdom is not a product of schools, colleges, and universities. Neither is wisdom foolishness with God. Wisdom is simply a by-product of one's search of the truth - man's most noble of professions. Poch Suzara

War as Big Business for the USA

The U.S. government goes to war against foreign countries like Iraq, and the US soldier faces adversaries with weapons or military technology that read: "Made in America." The widening WAR ON TERRORISM and accelerating weapons sales to coalition partners will only increase the likelihood of the boomerang effect that will continue to haunt Americans at home and American citizens living abroad. Meanwhile, the weapons for the "War against Terrorism" was called the "WAR AGAINST COMMUNISM decades ago before Communism collapsed.

Sons of God

Genesis 6:1-2 When the daughters of men were born, The Sons of God saw how beautiful they were and took for their wives as many as they chose.

So - The Biblical God had Sons!!! If the Bible is "God's word" and "God's word" says the Sons of God - then Jesus Christ was NOT God's only son.

Genesis 6:3 God's spirit shall not always strive with man because he is flesh, yet, man shall live 120 years. What? God will eventually desert man? In 1900 AD, the average life-span of human beings in the United States of America was 47.3 years. Then, in 1995, it was 76.3 years. Jeannie Calment of France died in 1997 at 121 years of age. With extreme exception, how can the Bible be considered accurate?

Genesis 6:4 The Titans (the fallen ones) were on Earth in those days and also later. The sons of God had come on to the daughters of man and had fathered them. The Titans were the mightiest ones who ever existed, men of renown.

Who were God’s sons, the Titans? Did they turn against God? Did that cause them to be the fallen ones? Does this explain where Cain’s wife, maybe a fallen one, came from?

Genesis 6:4 The Sons of God had intercourse with the daughters of man who bore them sons. What? Whew! No kidding?

Sons of God? Does God, have gender, sex organs? The Sons of God obviously had sex organs to have intercourse with human women? If they were God's son's, did God have sex organs also? Are these God’s sexually transmitted sons, or is God a hermaphrodite? Did God have sex with one female or many females to produce these sons? Oh, what to believe?

This is too sensitive for one to discuss, you say? Why is that? God said: Behold the man has become as one of us… God is talking to whom? His sons, the fallen sons? They took as many human women as they could? Who said God created man because He was all alone in the universe? Was the Biblical God a dysfunctional father concerning His Heavenly family? Couldn’t God get along with His Own family, that He sired? Did God’s Sons rape unwilling women with God’s consent? Did His sons have a falling out with God? If God’s Sons did improper acts with these women, what does that say about God’s upbringing skills concerning His Own offspring?Is this all more than you want to know? Is your desire for knowledge and facts stronger than your fear of some questions?

In a Satan story, Satan and 1/3rd of the Angels fell from Heaven, then was God only 2/3rds popular in Heaven? How can that be? Is that the Almighty Model that believers worship today?

God, clergy boasts, can hold up to any question; but, can clergy?

Believer: I don't want to ask certain questions or to know certain facts and I don't want you to either. I know that I have the right to know. I just don't want to know - even if it matters. I just want to stop you from doing what you are doing.

Presidents and tyrants get away with heinous, murderous acts due to the same "head in the sand" attitude. To believe: To let others do your thinking and decision-making for you. Do you know any "Ostriches", in denial, with their heads in the sand?

Do you realize the more you hope, the less you are satisfied with the deal God dealt you? The more you pray, the more you are telling God how to do His business. Poch Suzara

Index of prohibited Books

In Germany, Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf was never listed on the Vatican's "Index of Prohibited Books." Hitler, after all, was raised and educated as a Catholic. In the Philippines, however, Jose Rizal's NOLI and FILI were among those listed in the Vatican's "Index of Prohibited Books." Filipino Catholics were not allowed to read Jose Rizal's writings. Jesus Christ, a Jew born in a foreign land, is a greater hero than our own Jose Rizal - a freethinker and a humanist, freedom-fighter - one of the greatest of thinkers this world has ever produced - born in the Philippines.

Ten Commandments For God to Follow

1. Thou shall, in compliance with what is reasonable and just, destroy all faiths claiming to be your true faith. In practice, our faiths have only served as an excuse for our poverty, immaturity, moral bankruptcy, social insanity, and enmity against each other in your name and for your glory. 2. Thou shall destroy the devil once and for all. Your son Jesus failed to destroy him, and failed therefore to wash away the sins of the world. The devil today is the chief consultant of corrupt governments, the chief stimulant of crimes in the private industries, and the chief accountant of the rotten wealth of the organized religions in the Philippines. 3. Thou shall condemn all your TV evangelists, radio ministers, bible preachers, and faith healers. They serve only as your deceivers, mind destroyers, purveyors of myths and falsehoods, and money grabbers. They preach daily to the multitude to be good; unfortunately, only to be good for nothing daily. 4. Thou shall destroy the real enemies of all Filipinos. They can be seen only under a microscope: germs, bacteria, and viruses. Make not diseases infectious; better yet, make health contagious. 5. Thou shall recall the ancient biblical command to go forth and multiply. It has already been achieved on this earth a century ago. In the Philippines, it has been overachieved so much so that due to the uncontrolled population growth, this “Pearl of the Orient” is now famous as the “Payatas of the Orient.” 6. Thou shalt stop the Pinay’s dehydrated brains draining down to her bulging boobs. Instead, dare them to develop their brains, their husband’s, their children’s, and the brains of their favorite Jesuit advisers, fortune tellers, and the brains of their sweethearts as officials in government. In this way, the Pinays can become not only beautiful creatively, not only attractive socially, but mainly productive nationally. 7. Thou shall stop the Pinoy’s degrading their chief hero with a total retraction frame-up to this day! Make them embrace Rizal as the church martyred scientist-humanist that he was. Who aimed at redeeming our minds damaged by indoctrination and who aimed at enriching our hearts impoverished by biblical revelation. 8. Thou shall enthrone science, ethical reason, and independent critical thinking as the unifying basic aim of education. It’s the only infallible way towards our intellectual growth as a people and scientific development as a nation. 9. Thou shall awaken all Filipinos to the love of reading books on science and its aim to heighten our national I.Q. for the purpose of improving the quality of life in this country. Inspire the Filipino to love this life, but let it be guided with the power of knowledge. Forget free will; instead, for the sake of peace and harmony, health and sanity in the Philippines, make the Filipino love and appreciate good will. I0. God, Allah, Buddha, Brahma, Krishna, El Shaddai, Vishnu, Bathala, Yahweh, Elohim, or whatever else believers call you, come down to earth! Live with us humans. Share with us our hopes and dreams of a better humanity. Write clearly your own holy book. Organize your own religion and please establish your own government. So over them and with them, we are confused no more, we suffer no more, we fear no more, we hate no more, and we to go to war no more. Or else, your existence is nothing but the glorification of our own fears, ignorance, and superstitions forever more. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The Good Lord God - What a Farce, a Fraud, and a Ceremony

After God created everything as told in the bible, God said it was "Good." Unfortunately, God was not that serious when he said that; he was just kidding. He was sorry for the horrors of His creation in the beginning. In Genesis 6:6, it says: The LORD regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled." And so, God decided to bring in the Great Flood to drown everybody to death except Noah and his family of 8 people. But before the Great Flood came God told Noah to built an Ark. God most likely said: "NEVER MIND LOVING YOUR STUPID NEIGHBORS! JUST SAVE THE ANIMALS. TWO OF EACH!" Such is the GOD we were all taught in our schools, colleges, and universities - to believe, love, worship, and have faith in. Specially as Filipinos in the Philippines - the only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century. Poch Suzara

Where is God

For Jaime Calero:

Have you already forgotten what our silly La Salle teachers taught us to believe and to have faith in? that God is everywhere! That God is here, is there, and is everywhere! That God is omni-present!

So why would any one need to interview God? I asked it before, I ask it again: WHERE THE FUCK IS GOD ANYWAY? HOW COME HE IS ONLY ALWAYS OMNI-ABSENT? Cheers! Poch Suzara

Insanity Behind Christianity

The clearest definition of INSANITY is found in the Holy Bible: "If any man come to me and hate not his father, his mother, his wife, his children, his brethren, his sisters, and yea his own life also, he cannot be my disciple." Luke 14:26 Thus, we Filipinos famous as we are throughout the world as the Sick Man of Asia continue to be the masters of INSANITY as we are, in blind faith, the faithful victims of CHRISTIANITY since the 16th century. Look how we all have been educated to love only Jesus up there and hate each other down here? In the meantime, the Catholic Vatican Bank is getting richer and more powerful than the Federal bank of the United States of America! Poch Suzara

Adam and Eve had no Free Will

Men have the FREE WILL to freely choose a wife to love for themselves. Women have the FREE WILL to freely choose a husband to love for themselves. Poor Adam and Eve. Obviously, neither had the FREE WILL to choose a spouse because, whether they liked it or not, they were stuck with each other not due to FREE WILL, but because of GOD'S WILL. Free Will is a MYTH! Yes, oh Yes, we all have the free will to produce children. Now the question is: where is that same free will of said children to choose whether they want to be born a girl or a boy, or want to be born in expensive clean villages or in the dirty slums located around the Manila Cathedral; or, even to choose not to be born at all. Or, to choose the kind of mother and father they would want to have? Free will is neither free nor is it a will. It is nothing but a sick joke at its best; a farce, a fraud, and a ceremony at its worst. Poch Suzara, Google# Facebook# Twitter#

Frightened Believers

Frightened believers tell me that they believe in God because it "gives life meaning"and that God loves me as He created me! Well, during my youthful years, I too believed in God. However, I hardly felt life's meaning; on the contrary, I felt the burden of guilt that crippled my mind and heart. The terror made me live uselessly like a frightened subservient moron. I only loved divinity up there. I did not give a hoot for humanity nor had I any kind of love for my country down here. Under the influence of great fear, like a good soldier, I had the courage to die gallantly in battle; but I had no courage at all to question what it was really that I will die for. In brief, on all the important subjects - I was educated to never think for myself. In fact, I was warned to read not the bible. Well, I did and began to see slowly and to learn gradually the lies and deceptions - the illusion, confusion, and delusion that characterizes Filipino life spiritually impoverished in the Philippines. In the ultimate analysis, I managed, somehow, to save myself from being just another Sick Man of Asia. Indeed, at the age of 14 I slowly began to appreciate not only the sanity, but also the beauty and the dignity behind atheism. For the most part, we live in a world of extreme poverty, hunger, and preventable diseases. Today, in this already 21st century, more than 800 Million people are still without access to safe drinking water, and more than 1 Billion people live without sanitation facilities. And to think that the bible says proudly that "God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have life everlasting." John 3:16 Well, I asked it before, I ask it again of God: WHY NOT JUST SIMPLY LOVE OUR WORLD WITHOUT THE BULLSHIT STRING ATTACHED TO SUCH LOVE? REALLY GOD, WHAT'S THE BIG FUCKING DEAL ABOUT LIFE AFTER DEATH IN HEAVEN? WHEN WE HUMANS HAVE YET TO LIVE THE PRECIOUS LIFE AFTER BIRTH ON THIS EARTH? Poch Suzara

We Filipinos are still colonized by the Powers-that-be

The poorest people in Asia are the Filipinos. Spiritually, morally, politically, and technologically. In this day and age, we still believe those dumbstruck missionaries who taught us to love and to fear their God Jesus who was not even born in the Philippines, but born supposedly in a foreign Jewish State that never developed to be a Christian country. It is still a Jewish country. Thus, we Filipinos are not the masters, but the silly victims of big business more known as the spread of God's Word. No doubt, we need radical reforms to reform our sick society. However, for as long there is always available from God the forgiveness of sin and the forgiveness of crime, our sick society will forever remain sick under the blessings of a Christian divinity. Consider the rich sinners and the wealthy criminals comprising the powers-that-be: they are always enjoying the forgiveness of sin and crime from the holy spirit. By way of gratitude, they always declare openly, if not publicly that God has always blessed the Filipinos, has always blessed the Philippines. What a crock of lies and deceptions; if not a charade, nay, a parade of delusions, illusions, and confusion! For my part, I thanked the holy spirit that I am a heretic daily, an infidel weekly, a freethinker monthly, and indeed, an atheist yearly. Poch Suzara

The God we Love, Worship, and Have Faith in

After God created everything as told in the bible, God said it was "Good." Unfortunately, God was not serious when he said that; he was just kidding. He was sorry for his boobos of creation in the beginning.

Overpopulation, Malnutritiion, and Illitercy

Overpopulation in the Philippines means that the number of Filipinos have already surpassed the economic basis for providing them with adequate food, housing, and meaningful leisure such as thinking rationally, and fucking recklessly to produce more babies for the nation needlessly. Moreover, overpopulation is forcing a fantastic rise in malnutrition and illiteracy. In the ultimate analysis, overpopulation is not only a problem of people against more people but especially the problem of more people against the environment and natural resources such as land getting less and less available for planting rice, corn, wheat, coconut, and vegetables; but land getting more and more of a necessity for housing projects to house more people!

We, Atheists

We atheists stand for inquiry and doubt. We stand for logic and sound empirical method. We stand for things capable of sorting true facts from what is false, to every reasonable person's satisfaction. We stand for the humility to admit ignorance, and the wisdom to assume not too much, as well as the consequent political reality that finding common ground and negotiating differences is far wiser, and better for all, than maintaining adamant opposition on matters that do not even warrant an adamant opinion in the first place. We stand for reason as justification for inquiry rather than belief. We stand for happiness, and the understanding and accomplishment that are needed to achieve it. Above all, we atheist stand for being a hero to himself and his fellow humans, rather than to a villain. When the reasons for these values are truly understood, any man would hold on to them and keep them, even if god himself appeared and ended all dispute as to his existence. Indeed, an atheist ought to live his life so he can say with all sincerity, "even if God's existence were proven, I would change only my understanding of the facts, and not the values by which I guide my conduct and thought as a man living the good life - one inspired by the love of life, and guided by the joys of more learning via the pursuit of more knowledge. Indeed, we atheists are inspired not by infantile believing but by endless questioning to promote intelligent and honest thinking. It is, in this way, in the end, that we atheists die sober, and not drunk with lies. There is no such thing as a "hereafter" after death simply because there is also no such thing as a "herebefore" before birth! Poch Suzara

Hitler's Holocaust in Germany - a CHRISTIAN COUNTRY

The Holocaust was a tragic event in history. Approximately 11 million lives were lost because of cruel racial prejudice. During the first half of the 20th century, the Nazi party, led by Adolf Hitler, ( a Catholic ) encouraged prejudice against Jews and other "undesirables" such as gypsies, homosexuals, the mentally ill, or physically disabled; those not of the "Aryan" race. The Nazis developed "The Final Solution", a plan to get rid of all the Jews. They decided the most efficient way of doing this was to set up camps to exterminate their existence so they would not pass on their genes and disrupt the Nazis' quest for the perfect race. The Nazis also set up ghettos, where Jews would live in the most horrible conditions. Jewish children soon could not go to schools with the other German children. Jewish businesses were forced to close, Jewish temples were burned and vandalized. Though the Nazis did not achieve their goal, they managed to kill 5-6 million Jews (and a further 5 million other victims) in cruel, sadistic, inhumane acts and murders. Remember these Jewish people were God's Chosen people and so, how come God, always omni-present, did not bother to save his Chosen people?

In the meantime, Adolf Hitler, raised as a Catholic, wrote in his famous book MEIM KAMPF: I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator: by defending myself against the Jew, I am fighting for the work of the Lord.( PAGE 65) Poch Suzara

Jesus Was a Failure and a Loser

Jesus chose twelve losers and failures of His the community to help him save the world. They were called “apostles” who, even with the power of God behind them, never succeeded to straighten out the mess even of their own community. In fact, when the Word of Jesus arrived in the Philippines, Filipinos began to believe and have to faith as the Sick Man of Asia. In the meantime, Jesus was not invited to a banquet to celebrate the success of his life and work. On the contrary, He was arrested, tried, and crucified on the cross. Indeed, crucified by saps - the same saps who were created in the image and likeness of His own Father - God. Thus, nailed to a cross dying, Jesus cried out loud: "My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?" When it comes to divine failures – Jesus is the answer. In the meantime, Generations have passed and there is yet not a sign that Jesus is returning. Nevertheless, if Jesus arrives, it is most probable that his twelve apostles won’tbe coming along with him. They were all frightened cowards in the eyes of Jesus. Consider the two sick criminals crucified along side Him. Jesus promised one eternal salvation for believing in Him. A promise He never made to any of His twelve apostles. But then again, in the ultimate analysis, why would Jesus bother to return when clearly in John 18:36: Jesus bragged: “My kingdom is not of this world.” Poch Suzara

Old Age in the Old testament

Julius Caesar introduced a new calendar in 46 B.C. to incorporate Leap Days as part of the reform, that year's calendar included 445 days making it known as "THE YEAR OF CONFUSION."

But God inspired his authors to write the number of long years these poor saps lived and died: Genesis 5:1 God made man in His likeness. Does this explained man’s immortality? Genesis 5:5 Adam died at 930 years of age. Genesis 5:8 Seth died at 912 years of age. Genesis 5:11 Enosh died at 905 years of age. Genesis 5:14 Kenan died at 910 years of age. Genesis 5:17 Mahalalel died at 895 years of age. Genesis 5:20 Yered died at 962 years of age. Genesis 5:23 Enoch died at 365 years of age. Genesis 5:27 Methuselah died at 969 years of age. Genesis 5:31 Lamech died at 777 years of age. Trivia: Noah died at 950 years of age. Shem died at 600 years of age. Terach died at 205 years of age. Abraham died at 175 years of age. Isaac died at 180 years of age. Jacob died at 147 years of age. Moses died at 120 years of age. Genesis 5:24 Enoch walked with God and he was not; for God took him. Enoch walked with God clearly implies he did not die like Elijah did not die in Kings 2:11. Enoch and Elijah went to heaven without dying? Hebrews 11:5 By faith Enoch was taken so that he should not see death… Note. The Talking Serpent (devil) never died.
