Spiritual Poverty in the Philippines

"God is the measure and healer of our spiritual wealth"... Philippine Star, June 30, 2014 . . . I said it before, I say it again: The greatest of wealth is mental health. In the Philippines, as the Sick Children of Asia, we Filipinos suffer from poverty of the worst kind: the poverty of the mind and heart. Indeed, we enjoy neither health as a people; nor do we enjoy wealth as a nation. We are the poor and Sick Children of Asia. We are sick precisely because of, if not due to, our being historically deprived of the real joys in life - the joys of decent growth as a people; and the joys of decent development as a nation. What we were as Filipinos during the 16th century, we still are the same old Filipinos today in this already 21st century: nothing but frightened catholics. Indeed, we are NOT the intelligent masters of religion in our country. We are but the sick victims of a Catholic system of education. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Why the US should Stop Creating Criminals in foreign countries to SAVE the US Economy

WHY THE US SHOULD STOP CREATING CRIMINALS IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES TO SAVE THE US ECONOMY - - - 16 Reasons Why The United States Can No Longer Afford To Be The Police Of The World. . . By Michael Snyder, on July 2nd, 2011. . . Did you know that the United States military is now bombing 6 different countries? U.S. aircraft are conducting air strikes in Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Libya, Yemen and now Somalia. There is a U.S. military base in over half of the countries on the planet and U.S. military spending is over 7 times larger than the military spending of any other nation on earth. Yes, the United States will always need a strong military. But with our national debt exploding at an exponential rate, can the United States really afford to continue to be the police of the world? There are always going to be nutjobs in other countries that want to destroy the United States. In fact, the more we bomb the more they seem to multiply. The federal government seems obsessed with stamping out all terrorists wherever they may be found around the globe. But how will we ever know if we have gotten all of them? Does our government intend to occupy all of the countries of the Middle East eventually? Do we really have to police the entire globe in order to feel secure at home? Trying to be the police of the world is getting awfully expensive. We have run up almost 4 trillion dollars more debt since Barack Obama was elected. Many thought that Barack Obama would reduce our foreign entanglements, but instead he has greatly expanded them. In an article posted on a major UK news source describing the new U.S. airstrikes in Somalia, Declan Walsh noted that this is now the 6th country that the U.S. military is bombing on a regular basis…. Armed Predator and Reaper drones already operate in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Yemen and Libya, where they are controlled by the US military or the CIA. So are all of these airstrikes winning any “hearts and minds”? Hardly. Only 3 percent of the population of Pakistan supports our drone strikes in that country. What we are doing is not working. Perhaps it is time to fundamentally reassess our foreign policy. Barack Obama seems to have gotten a real taste for using the military. He didn’t even bother to ask Congress when we started bombing Libya, and now there are persistent rumors that U.S. ground forces may soon be involved. In fact, high ranking Russian diplomat Dmitry Rogozin says that he is convinced that NATO is beginning preparations for a ground invasion of Libya…. “I think that now we are witnessing the preparation stage of a ground operation which NATO, or at least some of its members… are ready to begin” But Libya is not the only place that U.S. troops may be sent to. The way that Obama administration officials are talking, war with Syria could potentially be on the horizon. Things are getting really crazy out there. The U.S. government is absolutely drowning in debt and yet we think that we can push around everyone else in the world. This even extends to nations that are supposed to be our allies. According to the Jerusalem Post, Barack Obama has given Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a one month ultimatum to agree to resume peace talks with the Palestinians based on pre-1967 borders. The U.S. government doesn’t even try to do much diplomacy in the Middle East anymore. It seems like threats, ultimatums and bombings are the preferred tools. The rest of the world is going to remember our arrogance and our ruthlessness. When the United States needs help someday, the rest of the world might not be very inclined to give it. Right now, the U.S. government is essentially bankrupt and the U.S. financial system is on the verge of the collapse. We have got to stop spending so much money. The following are 16 reasons why the United States can no longer afford to be the police of the world…. #1 Prior to the beginning of the “War on Terror” our national debt was under 6 trillion dollars. Today, it has more than doubled and currently sits at a whopping 14.3 trillion dollars. #2 Today, the U.S. military is in nearly 130 different nations and it has a total of about 700 military bases around the globe. It costs approximately 100 billion dollars each year to maintain these military bases. #3 U.S. military spending is greater than the military spending of China, Russia, Japan, India, and the rest of NATO combined. #4 The United States already accounts for 46.5% of all military spending on the planet. China is next with only 6.6%. #5 If Bill Gates gave every penny of his fortune to the U.S. government, it would only cover the U.S. budget deficit for 15 days. #6 When you throw in all “off budget” items and other categories of “defense spending” not covered in the Pentagon budget you get a grand total of somewhere between $1.01 and $1.35 trillion spent on national defense in 2010. #7 The U.S. government borrows an average of about 168 million more dollars every single hour. #8 The Pentagon currently gobbles up 56 percent of all discretionary spending by the federal government. #9 Between 2007 and 2010, U.S. GDP grew by only 4.26%, but the U.S. national debt soared by 61% during that same time period. #10 The cost for the first week of airstrikes on Libya was 600 million dollars. Keep in mind that the leader of the opposition in Libya has admitted that his forces contain large numbers of the same “al-Qaeda fighters” that were shooting at American troops in Iraq. So we are going broke and we are helping al-Qaeda take power in Libya at the same time. #11 The total price tag for each F-22 fighter jet is approximately $350 million. #12 Over the past decade, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have cost U.S. taxpayers well over a trillion dollars. #13 If you went out today and started spending one dollar every single second, it would take you over 31,000 years to spend one trillion dollars. #14 Since 2001, the total cost of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan breaks down to well over $3,600 for every man, woman and child in the United States. #15 Just one day of the war in Afghanistan costs more money than it took to build the entire Pentagon. #16 The United States government is now responsible for more than a third of all the government debt in the entire world. The U.S. national debt is escalating out of control and all of these wars are not helping one bit. Occupying and bombing all of these nations is not even making us safer. In fact, it is creating more enemies than it is destroying. In addition, our military is now spread so incredibly thin that there are real questions about our ability to respond if a major threat did actually arise. If you support our troops, then you should want the U.S. government to stop trying to police the world. We are getting a lot of young men and women hurt and killed and we are accomplishing a whole lot of nothing. At the same time we are bombing nations all over the globe, Barack Obama is absolutely gutting our strategic nuclear arsenal and has made us far more vulnerable to real threats such as Russia and China. It is almost as if our government is cursed. It just cannot seem to do anything right these days. Virtually everything that either George W. Bush or Barack Obama has tried to do has been an utter failure. Look, I am pro-military. My father was in the military. The United States will always need a very strong military. But trying to police the world is stupid. Occupying and bombing countries all over the Middle East is a massive strategic mistake and it is creating a lot of new enemies. Plus all of this military spending is contributing significantly to our national debt nightmare. If someone can explain why I am wrong I would love to hear from you. Sir: you are 100 per cent right on target. Poch Suzara

Mankind's Greatest Tragedy

The greatest tragedy in mankind's entire history may be the hijacking of morality by religion. . . (Arthur C Clarke). . .

Senator Miriam D. Santiago

"At least in the physical universe, there is a creator. In the senate there are 24 senators. We do not know who created them. Senator Miriam D. santiago... Oh my dear Senator Miriam D. Santiago, let's stop kidding around. All of the 24 senators, including yourself were all created by the Catholic church via its schools, colleges, and university. Such commercial enterprises are keeping the Filipinos as a people educated to remain forever poor and backward with silly beliefs and silly values. Such as there is a better world to go to after we are all dead and buried... Indeed, the Sick Children of Asia marching on perpetually as historically blessed by the Catholic church in the Philippines since the 16th century. Cheers! In the meantime, I said it before, I say it again: the wealth of the filthy rich and corrupt senators in the senate is peanuts compared with the vast wealth of the filthy rich and corrupt bishops of the Catholic church in our poor and backward country...

The Sick System of Education Under A Sick System of Religion

Religion, as it evolved out of fraud, farce, ceremony, greed, fear, illusion, delusion, and confusion - has produced far more successful sinners than it has produced successful saints. Religion therefore has been and still is an endless and a shameless failure. Just exactly like our sick system of education - another endless and a shameless failure: Instead of generating prosperity, stability, and human decency it is only producing in our sick country more poverty; especially poverty of the worst kind - the poverty of the mind and heart.

Walking After Breakfast

Most men, I dare say, would rather be fucking before breakfast and then be praying after breakfast. Praying especially for the forgiveness of their sins by a silly God existing somewhere out there in space called "heaven." ... As with me, already a 77 year old senior citizen, before breakfast, I enjoy doing a lot of reading and thinking. After breakfast, however, I happily do daily about 1 mile of walking. While walking, I am also doing a lot of mental editing. Oh yes, one of the greatest joys in life is the joy of thinking while walking; especially the kind of thinking that encourages one to enjoy the freedom of expression by doing more writing... Sadly, most men are educated to be selfish, greedy, frightened, stupid, and insane. They have neither the time nor the energy to creatively question anything. They only love to believe, nay, to have faith in a lot of deadly nothing!... In the meantime, our sick society continues to be the sick reflection of a sick system of education. It is what makes us famous as the Sick Children of Asia. In this already 21st century, we are still under the historical power, glory, and authority of Christianity established in the Philippines since the 16th century.

Old Age

Old age, like any other age, is the time to struggle for human decency... Bertrand Russell . . . In the Philippines, however, if you were a senator, old age is time to steal billions of the people's money. And you need not end up in jail because of your old age. Thus, as the Sick Children of Asia - we are all looking forward to getting old ourselves and be among the sick old criminals enjoying not the spread of common human decency, but enjoying instead freedom and democracy as inspired and blessed by the silly teachings of Christianity in our poor, backward, and spiritually sick country.

Love of Money for Jesus

"Love is the magnet that the draw believers together and attract the unbelievers to Christ." Philippine Star, June 25,2014... I ask: Love of what? Money? Indeed, the Lord Jesus needs money and loves money. Among the filthy rich Filipinos in the Philippines are those brokers of the Lord who continue to sell the idea of a Savior. Millions of frightened Filipinos are still buying one such Savior - Jesus - The Catholic bishops; Rev. Eli Soriano of Dating Daan; Rev. Apollo Quiboloy of the Appointed Son of God; Rev. Mike Velarde of El Shaddai; Rev. Eddie Villanueva of Jesus is Lord Church; Rev. Eddie Manalo of INC, etc. are among the filthy rich Filipinos in this spiritually twisted, culturally distorted, economically retarded, and historically perverted Jesus-freak country in Asia since the 16th century.

The Sick Children of Asia

Isn't it rather childish that we Filipinos, in this already 21st century, are still waiting for a SAVIOR to save us as we are only getting more famous in this world as the Sick Children of Asia? . . .

God's Truth Against Satan's Lies

"God's truth is the best protection against Satan's lies." Philippine Star, June 23, 2014 As a matter of common sense, the existence of Satan is an argument in favor of God existing as a God who is really useless, mindless, thoughtless, reckless, if not utterly worthless... Indeed, with Satan still existing, God seems as well to be existing for no reason at all except to be something like a supernatural Tootie-Frootie, if not a silly divinity, something of an Almighty Patootie...

Capitalism and Catholicism

Streets in the Philippines

In the Philippines: in our major cities, the streets are no longer only streets, but are now also used as parking lots. There is, however, a more horrible side to this story: all of those millions of vehicles - cars, buses, jeepneys, motorcycles, tricycles, and bicycles are not made in the Philippines. They are all manufactured in, imported from, other Asian non-Christian countries. We Filipinos have neither the time nor the education to develop in our country the power of science and technology. We are already too proud and busy with our childish daily prayers to a silly divinity as historically inspired by silly Catholic theology! Poch Suzara Twitter# facebook# Google#

The Yolanda Super Typhoon Victims and Our Arrested Senator in Jail

Lacson accepts job as ‘Yolanda’ rehab czar By Nancy C. Carvajal Philippine Daily Inquirer Monday, December 2nd, 2013 Former Sen. Panfilo “Ping” Lacson has accepted President Benigno Aquino’s offer for him to be the rehabilitation czar who will oversee reconstruction in the regions that Supertyphoon “Yolanda” devastated last month. Lacson said Sunday night that Mr. Aquino had acknowledged his acceptance of the offer to oversee the rehabilitation efforts of the government that would cost more than P40 billion. In a text message to the Inquirer, Lacson said he accepted “the job offer after getting a series of briefings over the weekend from experts of the field of reconstruction and rehabilitation of disaster-stricken areas.” As the rehabilitation czar, Lacson will manage not only funding from the government but also foreign assistance running into tens of millions of dollars meant for towns and cities in central Philippines. He said Mr. Aquino offered the position to him at a meeting in Malacañang last week. But he said he asked the President that he be given three days to “mull it over” and to “conduct consultations with experts in connection with the rebuilding of towns and cities decimated by the super typhoon.” “When the President asked me if I could be in charge of rehabilitation efforts, I did not immediately say, ‘Yes,’ and asked for time to think about it because I know it’s a daunting task and it’s also not my area of expertise,” he said. Had the President offered something in the line of law enforcement, Lacson said he would have immediately said yes. He was earlier reported to be the choice of the administration to head an anticorruption commission. Lacson, a former Philippine National Police chief, said he was reluctant to immediately accept the offer to become the rehabilitation czar because he did not want to do a haphazard job. “I want to do the job with flying colors. I want to do the best for the job,” he said. Lacson was known to have not touched his pork barrel during his 12-year stint in the Senate. Senate Majority Leader Alan Peter Cayetano earlier pushed for Lacson to investigate the pork barrel scam “because of his impeccable record against corruption and his unwavering stand against the pork barrel.” It has been three weeks since Yolanda decimated the provinces of Samar and Leyte, destroying houses and infrastructure and displacing millions of people. Mr. Aquino has increased the proposed funding for communities devastated by Yolanda from P38.8 billion to P40.9 billion. The money was expected to go to housing, infrastructure, livelihood and employment opportunities, local facilities and social services. The entire P40.9 billion could be fully funded in the 2013 General Appropriations Act. Last week, the Senate passed a P14.5-billion supplemental budget. Yolanda devastated 171 municipalities, covering 4,971 villages in an area of 25,000 square kilometers and affecting 6.6 million people. As of Sunday, the death toll stood at 5,632, with 26,136 people injured and 1,759 missing. Originally posted: 8:40 pm | Sunday, December 1st, 2013. . . NOTE: Today, June 22, 2014, it has turned out that the corrupt, maka-Dios, maka-Jesus, senator Bong Revilla, arrested and now in jail accused of plunder and other high crimes against the Filipino people has a more decent accommodations than the hundred of thousands of the "Yolanda Victims" in tacloban. This is made possible by the followers of Jesus in the Philippines, as he in heaven, and in hell... Poch Suzara, Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The Evils of Capitalism

Advocates of capitalism are very apt to appeal to the sacred principles of liberty, which are embodied in one maxim: The fortunate must not be restrained in the exercise of tyranny over the unfortunate... Bertrand Russell... We are now told that "conscious capitalism" creates values. Well, I ask: how so? Since in this world, the few rich are getting filthy richer; while the many poor are only getting filthy poorer? Work is socialized, but the profit from such work is privatized. . . Indeed, Capital has value but only with the power of labor... When someone tells that they got rich through hard work, ask them, "whose?" Again, listen to Bertrand Russell: "It is preoccupation with possessions, more than anything else, that prevents men from living freely and nobly."... In the Philippines, one of the poorest countries in the world under capitalism, (especially as blessed by Catholicism) millions upon millions of Filipinos are the filthy poor... They are taught to SMILE because GOD LOVES THEM!!! It is more referred to as "religious freedom;" or, the freedom to be a religious moron; especially for the glory of Christ Jesus on earth as he is in heaven or in hell!. . .

The Vagina

Notice there never was nor can there ever be a Beauty Contest, Nationally or Internationally, as who has the most beautiful Vagina. There is no such thing found anywhere in the world. All Vagina existing here, there, and everywhere look alike - ugly. There isn't one that can called "cute!" Admittedly, however, ugly vaginas produce cute babies. Just like our sick politicians running our sick system of government were all, once upon a time "cute babies." Also, most Ad Agencies have been quite commercially successful as they used the symbol of a vagina to sell products of their clients - soaps, deodorants, hair conditions, toothpaste, condo units, hotel, motel accommodations, etc. Ways to enjoy attention, affection, sexual penetration, and satisfaction. It is, indeed, thought-provoking when a woman tells a man that she did not come man's rib. Man, in fact, came from her vagina! It is ironic, in the meantime, how most men, especially those who have a reputation for mediocrity have no taste to have their beliefs to be put under critical scrutiny. They feel no pleasure with the exchange of thought or ideas. In man-woman relationship, there is no such thing as intellectual attraction. There is only physical connection. Most men have no stamina to participate in a discussion regarding the existence of say, a woman's medulla oblongata. They would rather, at any time, be inside her vagina – the real altar by which all men worship. Even the holy bible says that - "A marriage shall be considered valid only if the wife is a virgin. If the wife is not a virgin, she shall be executed." Deut. 22:13-21. In other words, never mind whether she is an intelligent woman. What's more exciting is what is found in between her legs - a vagina. Men have lost fortunes, priests and bishops publicly denounced, kings have abdicated, brothers have betrayed brothers, and governments have been toppled – all because of this little cavern of joy most men happily refer to as “pussy,” "honey," – the real "kingdom of heaven," – or the vagina. From the day they come out of it, men have conspired, connived, cajoled, contrived, cheated, begged, borrowed, cried, swindled, lied, complimented, deceived, escaped away just to buy their way back in to be inside an ugly looking vagina. For my part, as a man of thought, and at my age, I would rather be more involved with the existence of the medulla oblongata. I have no more taste to trivialize the rest of my life by entertaining the existence of the vagina - the ugliest, if not the most weird-looking part of a woman's body. When I make love, however, I make love with a woman's intelligence. If she hasn't got any, I say good-bye to her! Indeed, to me, a woman who has neither the taste nor the gumption to read precious books is not a woman, but a tootie-frootie of a patootie. She should have neither the right to be a mother of a child nor have the privilege of being a wife to any thinking man! In the meantime, not everything is made in China. Babies are made in Vagina. The 1.5 million babies arriving yearly into our poor and backward country are products not of intellectual activity, but products of mediocrity or the shallow pleasures of sexual perversity. And to think that most of these unwanted children will eventually be enrolled in schools, colleges, and universities. There to learn not how to appreciate what's existing in between a woman's ears; but only what's ugly found in between her legs. Poch Suzara Facebook# Twitter# Google#

What was Done to Atheists for about 1500 years

“I'll tell you what you did with Atheists for about 1500 years. You outlawed them from the universities or any teaching careers, besmirched their reputations, banned or burned their books or their writings of any kind, drove them into exile, humiliated them, seized their properties, arrested them for blasphemy. You dehumanised them with beatings and exquisite torture, gouged out their eyes, slit their tongues, stretched, crushed, or broke their limbs, tore off their breasts if they were women, crushed their scrotums if they were men, imprisoned them, stabbed them, disembowelled them, hanged them, burnt them alive. And you have nerve enough to complain to me that I laugh at you.” - - ― Madalyn Murray O'Hair

 In the Philippines, look at what the Catholic church did to our Jose Rizal. A thinking Filipino on the way into becoming a courageous atheist: He was arrested, incarcerated, and publicly executed. After which, schools, colleges, and universities own and operated by the Catholic church taught and still teach millions of Filipinos to believe that Jose Rizal did not die as a heretic; but died as a penitent Catholic... In the ultimate analysis, it explains why we Filipinos are only getting famous worldwide as the Sick Children of Asia still ruled by faithful lunatics masquerading as faithful Catholics.

With God in the Philippines Everything is a Pesobilitity

For with God nothing shall be impossible. . . Luke 1:37. . . This is only half of the truth. The other half of the truth is that with God, especially in the Philippines, everything has only to do with the pesobilities. In the meantime, the richest, most powerful of commercial enterprises in the Philippines has always been and still is - the Catholic church.

The Son of God's Word

"When God's Word is hidden in our heart, His ways will become our ways." Philippine Star, June 18, 2014 Oh my dear Editors, this is 100 per cent right on target.

Luke 14:26 Look at how millions upon millions of Filipinos as the faithful DISCIPLES of Jesus all love God up there by hating not only one another, but also hating our country down here!

Consider this simply truth as written by science writter Jeremy Rifkin in his famous book ENTROPY: "each unfolding reality contains the seeds of its own destruction and the embryo of a new reality that will replace it." Isn't reality all about the law of birth, growth, death, and decay? Now which part of reality is superior as Pope Francis said: "reality is superior than ideas?"

The Corruption as a Greater Evil Than Prostitution

“I prefer a government run like hell by Filipinos to a government run like heaven by Americans.” President Manuel Quezon Oh my dear President Manuel Quezon, you certainly missed the target. We do not have a government run like hell by Filipinos. It's far more despicable than hell. We have a government run by educated men and educated women who are the corrupt products of a corrupt system of a Catholic education - indeed, educated products by schools, colleges, and universities own and operated (tax free) by the Catholic church and its affiliates in the Philippines. To think that corruption is a worst evil than prostitution. Prostitution endangers the morals of an individual. Corruption endangers the morals of society. I said it before, I say it again: the truth hurts; but lies are far more damaging and can last for a thousand years. Far more damaging than the education for corruption is the corruption of education! Millions upon millions of Filipinos love not their country down here, but love only a divinity up there. Indeed, we Filipinos have more love, respect, and admiration for a Jesus Christ than we do love, respect, and admire our own Jose Rizal - the greatest Filipino; in fact, the only Filipino who stood up against the evils of the catholic church in the Philippines.Jose Rizal got arrested, incarcerated, and publicly executed as a way to carry out more of the same business of the Catholic church in the years to come in our poor and corrupt country..

The Poor Materially and the poor Spiritually in the Philippines

According to the Department of Social Welfare, out of the population of 100 MILLION Filipinos, an estimated 40 MILLION Filipinos live under poverty level in the Philippines. Indeed, the poverty of materiality. The other 60 MILLION Filipinos, however, live under poverty of another kind - the worst kind - the poverty of the mind and heart - indeed, the poverty of spirituality. They are more known as the Catholics. The Catholic church, however, historically, since the 16th century, has never, but never ceased to remind everybody daily in our poor and backward country what the Lord said: "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." ... Thus, life in general in the Philippines can be characterized as the daily competition to be poor in spirit and be saved in the next life as against those who try to be rich in spirit and be damned in this life. . .

Listen to Jesus in the Bible

"And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them." — Luke 21:8

"For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many." — Mark 13:6

"And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many." — Matthew 24:4-5

For my part, I said it before, I say it again: Jesus could walk on water, change water into wine, multiply loaves of bread into a thousand loaves, raise the dead back to life, got Himself crucified dead on the cross and then resurrected himself back to life. Then get Himself to become world famous as the Savior of the world. But Jesus could not save the millions of poor in spirit Pinoys and Pinays victimized by the religious saps and reverential jerks more famous in the Philippines as Rev. Apollo Quiboloy of the Appointed Son of God; Rev. Mike Velarde of El Shaddai; Rev. Eli Soriano of Dating Daan; Rev. Eddie Villanueva of Jesus is Lord Church; the thoughtless bishops of Iglesia Ni Cristo; and not to mention the insane and selfish bishops of the Catholic church, etc. But then again let's ignore these mindless preachers of Jesus in the Philippines.

Let's listen to Jesus himself as the greatest destroyer of Filipino hearts and minds in the Philippines - the only Jesus country in Asia since the 16th century. Jesus openly and publicly admonished: "IF ANY MAN COME TO ME AND HATE NOT HIS FATHER AND MOTHER, WIFE AND CHILDREN, BRETHREN AND SISTERS, NAY, AND HIS OWN LIFE ALSO, HE CANNOT BE MY DISCIPLE." Luke 14:26

Family Bonding

No thanks for the maid who washed and prepared the dishes set on the table. No thanks for the fishermen who caught the fish, the shrimps, and crabs cooked on the table. No thanks for the farmers who planted the rice and raised the chickens, pigs, and cows, and vegetables set on the table.

Native American History

Native American History - Early History The History of Native Americans is both fascinating and in many ways, tragic. Estimates range from about 10 – 90 million Native Americans inhabited America at the time of the European arrivals. They had lived in the land many, many years before white man set foot on their soil... It is believed that during the ice age, they had traveled a land-bridge across the Bering Sound, from Siberia into what is now Alaska. They had gradually migrated across the land and southward into Mexico and beyond. The name “Indian” was given them by Christopher Columbus who mistakenly believed he had landed in the Indies. They have been labeled Indians, American Indians, and the now preferred Native Americans. They migrated to all regions of the land and were formed into many different tribes or nations... These were a people who adapted well to their particular regions and made wise use of all natural resources available. They believed in respecting the land and the abundance of gifts it offered. They became proficient fishermen, hunters, farmed crops such as corn, and built homes with whatever available resources their territory provided. Some of these included animal skins, sun-dried brick for adobes, or lumber for long houses depending on the regions. Native American History - Native Americans and the Europeans The Native Americans of the east coast met the new 16th and 17th century visitors from Europe with enthusiasm. They regarded these bearded white men as strange but were delighted with the steel knives, mirrors, copper kettles, and other intriguing novelties. The indigenous tribes were more than accommodating and hospitable. Without their aid, the first waves of settlers would not have survived in the land they knew little about. But in time the Europeans disregarded all respect for the valued land and resources and instead displayed insatiable greed and arrogance... The Europeans soon pursued their intent to conquer this new continent with brutal attacks and invasion. The Native Americans soon realized that the invaders would arrive in overwhelming numbers, as many “as the stars in heaven.” Initially, the people of this land tried to co-exist with the Europeans. But many more problems arose. With all their intriguing gadgets, the white men brought deadly diseases to the Native Americans. The colonists and explorers brought measles, smallpox, cholera, yellow fever, and many more devastating diseases. This drastically diminished the Native American population and annihilated entire villages. In addition to this, the arrogant attitude of the ever-growing whites led to the Indian Wars, the Indian Removal Act (1830), and in 1890 one of the worst massacres ever -- Wounded Knee, South Dakota. Here warriors, women, and children alike were ferociously slaughtered by the U.S. Cavalry. The U.S, government began Relocation Programs and the now famous Trail of Tears march where hundreds of Cherokee died from starvation, exposure, and illnesses. The Native American peoples were not only reduced in number but taken from their homes, stripped of their customs, and even forbidden to speak their native languages. Their children were taken from them and sent to schools to “civilize” them, forced to abandon every aspect of their heritage. In January 1876, the U.S. government forced them to live on ‘reservations’ where the majority of Native Americans still reside today... Native American History - The 20th Century Native Americans Some consider Native Americans as a resilient people. The Indian Citizen Act of 1924 offered official citizenship to the Native American tribes. This was partly due to the heroic service of many of them in World War I. Others like Jim Thorpe, Sequoyah, and Sacajawea have represented their people with greatness. There are well over 500 recognized tribal governments currently in the U.S. They are self-governed and considered to be sovereign nations of people within America. There are currently more than 2.48 million Native Americans, according to the 2000 census bureau. While most still live on the reservations, they are considered some of the most poverty-ridden areas in the United States. Unemployment is 5 times higher than the general U. S. population, according to the 2002 Bureau of Indian Affairs. As with many defeated, oppressed people, they have suffered tremendously from the plagues of alcoholism and suicide. These were once a vibrant and resourceful people. They have been robbed, humiliated, and removed from all they knew. Though many have tried through the centuries to civilize, Christianize, and Americanize the Native American people, there are organizations today that recognize the important heritage of these nations. For example, Wiconi International says “we want to see Indigenous people come to know and experience ultimate freedom, and deliverance from the powers of darkness that still prevail in lands and communities…” ... In the meantime, in view of the above, I say again to Ayn Rand, you are such a sick tootie-frootie of a Patootie when it comes to judging a people who were already existing in America for more than a thousand years before the white "trash" arrived to ruin everything that was so beautiful, so peaceful, and so delightful in America!. . .

The Lies About Death

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it.

WOW! AYN RAND, YOU ARE SUCH A TOOTIE FROOTIE, NAY, A PATOOTIE

Now, I don't care to discuss the alleged complaints American Indians have against this country. I believe, with good reason, the most unsympathetic Hollywood portrayal of Indians and what they did to the white man. They had no right to a country merely because they were born here and then acted like savages. The white man did not conquer this country. And you're a racist if you object, because it means you believe that certain men are entitled to something because of their race. You believe that if someone is born in a magnificent country and doesn't know what to do with it, he still has a property right to it. He does not. Since the Indians did not have the concept of property or property rights--they didn't have a settled society, they had predominantly nomadic tribal "cultures"--they didn't have rights to the land, and there was no reason for anyone to grant them rights that they had not conceived of and were not using. It's wrong to attack a country that respects (or even tries to respect) individual rights. If you do, you're an aggressor and are morally wrong. But if a "country" does not protect rights--if a group of tribesmen are the slaves of their tribal chief--why should you respect the "rights" that they don't have or respect? The same is true for a dictatorship. The citizens in it have individual rights, but the country has no rights and so anyone has the right to invade it, because rights are not recognized in that country; and no individual or country can have its cake and eat it too--that is, you can't claim one should respect the "rights" of Indians, when they had no concept of rights and no respect for rights. But let's suppose they were all beautifully innocent savages--which they certainly were not. What were they fighting for, in opposing the white man on this continent? For their wish to continue a primitive existence; for their "right" to keep part of the earth untouched--to keep everybody out so they could live like animals or cavemen. Any European who brought with him an element of civilization had the right to take over this continent, and it's great that some of them did. The racist Indians today--those who condemn America--do not respect individual rights... Ayn Rand WOW! My dear Ayn Rand, you are such a Tootie-Frootie, nay, a Patootie! Are you saying then that during the 16th century, the Catholics from Spain had every right to conquer the Philippines and to civilize the filipinos with Catholicism?

The Endless Source of Filth in our Sick Country

THE significance of health and sanitation cannot be taken for granted in a decent society. Every civilization stresses the importance of cleanliness. Historically, cleanliness has been considered one of the important factors by which to judge whether a nation enjoys civilization or more at home with superstition. Waste management is the collection, transport, processing or disposal, managing and monitoring of waste materials. The term usually relates to materials produced by human activity, and the process is generally undertaken to reduce their effect on health, the environment or aesthetics, and indeed, to maintain and support the Tourism Industry. I said it before, I say it again: we are not orderly as a people. We are filthy as a nation. Look how we only dream over the prospect, but never get down to brass tacks in the task of cleaning the filth off in the Pasig river, Laguna De Bay, and Manila Bay. Not to mention also cleaning the mess off our bus stations and train stations; towns, barrios, and cities; public parks; police stations; bus and train stations; airports, harbors, and piers; keeping clean our public markets and public toilet facilities. Not to mention cleaning the filth behind our sick religion and sick politics in our country. Not by praying daily and nightly, but planting flower plants and re-planting cut down trees have yet to take serious roots as a part of our culture, custom, and tradition. In the meantime, we have yet to get real as to why we must, first and foremost, clean the dirt off our minds and the filth off our hearts. Especially in facing and dealing with the real source as to where the dirt and filth everywhere in our sick society comes from. After all, everything that is messy and dirty around us everywhere is the exact reflection of what we Filipinos learn from schools, colleges, and universities. Aside from a green revolution, what we need, however, is the revolution of our minds and hearts. Indeed, dirt that comes from our dirty system of education! Our schools, colleges, and universities are neither clean nor organized as educational institutions. They hardly teach the values of cleanliness in public, or the beauty of orderliness as a Republic. They are just commercial enterprises established only to make money, tons of money. Well, if the monies made have turned out to be dirty too - our officials in the government are just happy and proud and grateful to grab it for their own pockets. In the meantime, I should wish to ask our Secretary of Education Christian Brother Fermin Ilustre: Sir, when will you start doing your job in cleaning up the traditional Catholic mess out of our sick system of education! A nation cannot be radically reformed except by a radical reform of its values and beliefs as taught in schools, colleges, and universities! ... Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Education is Far More Precious than Indocrination

No doubt, the key to our spiritual growth as a people and to our scientific development as a nation is via "education." Unfortunately, what we acquire in the Philippines is not "education," but "sick indoctrination." Indeed, schools, colleges, and universities are Catholic establishments where we learn to love not our family, to love not our country, and indeed, to love not humanity down here; but learn only how to love a sick divinity existing somewhere up out there. Is it any wonder that most men and women, even boys and girls, in our country, do not enjoy the freedom of thinking? but enjoy only the freedom of fucking. We produce three babies every minute of the day and night; or, 180 babies every hour; or, 4,320 babies every day; or, 129,600 babies every month; or, 1,555,200 million babies yearly! After our women deliver daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly - babies to inhabit our poor and backward country, our men have also been indoctrinated to openly and publicly declare that "WE ARE PROUD FATHERS!" In the meantime, millions of the nation's children live off garbage in the streets of our major cities. We are even indoctrinated to believe that God has always loved us Filipinos and has always blessed the Philippines for being the only Catholic country in Asia since the 16th century. In the meantime, I asked it before, I ask it again: What value has our freedom of expression if, as children in schools, colleges, and universities - we are never taught to value the free play of free thought inside or outside, in front or in the back, below or on top - the playful arena of free ideas? Indeed, what value has the freedom of expression if we are never encouraged to question, for example, the destructive influence of sacred beliefs, parental prejudices, or even to challenge the validity of ecclesiastical authority? For my part, I always enjoy the freedom to make mistakes or, more to the point, - the freedom to be able to learn from my mistakes. In this way, I will always, to the end of my days, embrace the freedom of expression as one of life’s most precious of freedoms. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The American military has never detailed the events of his disappearance, but there were reports at the time that he had just walked off his base in Paktika province after completing a guard shift. His family, from Hailey in Idaho, have now released an email he sent days before his disappearance in which he spoke of his disillusion with the American military. "The future is too good to waste on lies," he wrote in the email obtained by Rolling Stone magazine. "And life is way too short to care for the damnation of others, as well as to spend it helping fools with their ideas that are wrong. I have seen their ideas and I am ashamed to even be American. The horror of the self-righteous arrogance that they thrive in. It is all revolting." Sgt Bergdahl criticised his superiors, calling his battalion commander a "conceited old fool", and said the American army was composed of "liars, back-stabbers, fools, and bullies". He concluded by saying: "I am sorry for everything. The horror that is America is disgusting." His disappearance triggered an intense manhunt as troops were pulled off planned operations to search for him. At the time, Afghan officers taking part in the search said they had been told Sgt Bergdahl had suffered some form of breakdown. A Taliban statement said he had been captured after falling behind on a patrol. He is not classified as a deserter and is listed as "missing-captured." Since his capture, he has appeared in a number of hostage videos released by the Taliban, in which he has pleaded for his release. He is believed to be held in northwestern Pakistan. His parents have recently begun giving interviews about their son's imprisonment after becoming frustrated with the failure of official efforts to free him. American officials had tried to broker his freedom in a swap for five Taliban leaders currently held in Guantánamo Bay US military prison in Cuba. The transfer had been conceived as a "confidence building measure" to kick start wider talks between the enemies to find a political settlement to the conflict. The initiative appears to have stalled in the face of opposition in Congress to concessions to the Taliban. Meanwhile the number of American troops who have died in the decade-long conflict on Thursday passed 2,000 according to the icasualties website, which compiles casualty figures. Oh my dear US soldier Bowe Bergdahl, thank you for being honest, truthful, and courageous in the real sense of the word. You are, indeed, a rare and a great American. I salute you. If only there were more of you as American citizens - there will be peace, sanity, and tranquility in this world of ours! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

How to Heal Yourself Through Visualization. Seminar by Jaime T. Licauco June 7, 2014... Oh my dear Jaime T. Licauco, there is no such thing as healing through visualization or vituperation or visitation or even by revelation or circumlocution or deception or even by prostitution... Even in and then out of the hospital cured of a disease, we are still dying whether we like it or not... Sir, the day we are born is the day we begin to live in a dying body. All the healing in the world cannot stop that reality, not even by the power and grace and beauty of a silly divinity...

J.K. Rowling, Author of Harry Potter

J.K. Rowling is no longer a billionaire. . . The billionaires club has hit J.K. Rowling with a banishing spell. According to the newly updated Forbes Rich List, the Harry Potter author has gone from billionaire to millionaire (several hundred times over, of course). She apparently broke a few rules of how to stay rich by giving away a lot of her fortune — reportedly $160 million of it — to charity and by paying her top-rung British taxes. There’s no way that the socially minded Rowling, who once lived on welfare, gives two Quaffles about her standing on the list, and no one should shed a tear over a stratospherically rich woman becoming slightly less so. But I always liked knowing that an author of imaginative, timeless, honest-to-goodness books became a billionaire. On the contrary, J.K. rowling is far far richer than ever. After all, the worst kind of poverty is the poverty of the mind and heart... while the greatest of wealth is the health of the mind and heart. Poch Suzara

Overpopulation Good for the Philippines Says Catholic Bishop

Bishop Gilbert Garcera of the Diocese of Daet, the capital of Camarines Norte, believes overpopulation has been advantageous to the Philippines and to the world because it has increased the number of overseas workers and migrants who could send remittances back home while taking care of ageing people abroad and spreading the Christian faith... Contrary to the aims of the reproductive health (RH) bill, Garcera said the huge Philippine population could be part of “God’s plan for Filipinos to be caregivers to ageing nations whose populations had become stagnant.” Oh my dear Bishop Gilbert Garcera, you are such a cheap liar and as corrupt as any of our corrupt politicians in the government.

HAPPY MEMORIAL VETERANS DAY

(CNN) -- U.S. veterans are dying because of delays in diagnosis and treatment at VA hospitals. . . . At least 19 veterans have died because of delays in simple medical screenings like colonoscopies or endoscopies, at various VA hospitals or clinics, CNN has learned. . . That's according to an internal document from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, obtained exclusively by CNN, that deals with patients diagnosed with cancer in 2010 and 2011. . . .Hospital delays are killing war vets. . . The veterans were part of 82 vets who have died or are dying or have suffered serious injuries as a result of delayed diagnosis or treatment for colonoscopies or endoscopies. . . Barry Coates is one of the veterans who has suffered from a delay in care. Coates was having excruciating pain and rectal bleeding in 2011. For a year the Army veteran went to several VA clinics and hospitals in South Carolina, trying to get help. But the VA's diagnosis was hemorrhoids, and aside from simple pain medication he was told he might need a colonoscopy." Indeed, HAPPY VETERANS MEMORIAL DAY. American soldiers come home from war maimed or injured but are unable to find hospital care; many also are unable to find jobs in the Land of the Free and the Home of the brave. After the Second World War, tens of thousands of Filipino soldiers fought on the sides with American soldiers against the Japanese soldiers. After the war, hundreds of thousands of Filipinos had to fall in line to acquire a visa, if at all granted, to go to America. But The Japanese, and indeed the Germans, former enemies of freedom and democracy, could go readily visit the USA without a visa! I said it before, I say it again: war between nations has never been about good versus evil. It has always been about evil versus evil and evil always won. Too bad the soldiers on either side fighting evil have as yet to fully understand that war between nations has never, but never ended the evils of war as an instrument to settle international disputes. What war has only accomplished is the preparation for future wars. In this already 21st century, I'd like to share with all of you the thoughts of Bertrand Russell on the subject of war: "You can, if you think fit, prepare children for a military life by teaching them all to do the same thing at the same moment when they hear the word of command. If you do, they will grow up thwarted and stunted and full of deep-seated anger against the world - no doubt useful emotions if they are to become soldiers employed in killing, but not if they are to be happy citizens of a world at peace."

There is No Such Thing as Life After Death

"I said it before, I say it again: We must face and appreciate the truth that life has only to do with birth which is the existence of something, and should have nothing to do with death which is the existence of nothing.

That there is a better life to come after death is all but a ecclesiastical hogwash. There is no such thing as life after death. There is only life after birth. Consider for millions of years before birth, we were existing as a nothing. It will be the same merry-go-round after death. We shall again be existing as a nothing.

After death, even if one were still alive in spirit, I ask: 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 sexual organ shall we have sex; and indeed, with what brain shall we be able to think?... In the final analysis, We do not die partially or temporarily. We die entirely and, indeed, permanently. Nothing is more evident to him who is not delirious. The human body, after death, is but a mass of meat, incapable of producing any movement the union of which constitute life. We no longer see circulation, respiration, digestion, reflection, or the freedom of expression. Nothing is more natural and more simple than to believe that the dead man is no more. There is nothing more absurd than to believe that the dead man is still living.

H. L. Mencken summarized neatly for all of us to clearly see: "Immortality is the condition of a dead man who does not believe that he is already dead."

For my part, as an atheist, I said it before, I say it again: If we must die, let us die sober, and not drunk with lies or delusions... I do not regret nor do I feel sorrow at the death of a love-one, a relative, a friend, or an associate. I am happy with the thought that the dead are already resting in peace forever and can no more be bothered with lies, illusions, confusions, or deceptions! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The Wealth of the 10 Most Richest Filipinos

MANILA, Philippines - If the combined wealth of 10 of the richest Filipinos represents the income of more than 20 million wage earners, then what inclusive growth is President Benigno Aquino III talking about? "A workers' group on Friday assailed the chief executive's assertation before the World Economic Forum (WEF) on East Asia that the Philippines, through the Filipino people, had made inclusive and remarkable growth doable. The group said that while there might have been progress, this failed to trickle down to the poor. Partido ng Manggagawa (PM) chairman Renato Magtubo said that based on his group's study, the estimated US$45.3 billion combined wealth of the country's 10 richest people is equal to the annual income of 21 million miniumum wage earners - a proof that economic growth does not translate to substantial poverty reduction as its benefits remain concentrated in the hands of a few. "The Philippines is not a fantastic story of economic miracle but an old testament to this kind of regional growth pattern where a handful of business elites control more than half the economy," said Magtubo. “The Philippine government cannot claim ‘inclusive growth’ until this ratio of inequality is effectively reversed,” he added. Basking in the international acclaim of one of the region’s most astounding “economic miracles,” Aquino on Thursday attributed the country's remarkable growth to the collective effort of the Filipino people. "When many of you have praised the achievements of the Philippines, we always point out that the pursuit of large-scale reforms in every aspect of governance is the achievement of the Filipino people," Aquino said in his speech at the opening of the WEF in Manila. "They made the goal of achieving inclusive growth doable, and it is also they who will make it irreversible," the President added. But Magtubo countered Aquino's statement, saying that any mention of the word "people" at the WEF, "won’t go beyond the context of market – open markets for corporate products and cut-price and flexible labor markets for their efficient operations." “Thus the WEF cannot brag about wonders and miracles when Asia remains the biggest home to the world’s poorest people epitomized by workers in vulnerable employment,” said Magtubo. The Asian region has the highest rate of informalization in the world, according to PM. "As defined, informal workers are the own-account (self-employed) and unpaid family workers combined. They also include workers in irregular (contractuals) or seasonal employment," Magtubo explained. He said that recently, informal workers had been labelled as precariats or workers living in precarious working conditions. The group said the International Labor Organization (ILO) had estimated the Asia-wide “vulnerable employment” in 2007 at 1.1 billion people or 62.2 percent of all workers in the region, while informalization in the Philippines is estimated to be between 41 and 77 percent." In the meantime, I asked it before, I ask it again: Have any of you ever met a Filipino who got to be FILTHY RICH for believing that God is BAD? So how come millions of Filipinos are FILTHY POOR and yet they all believe that God is GOOD! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

No, It's not only Aquino Who's Useless

Philippine Daily Inquirer Letter to the Editors Monday, May 26th, 2014 Dear Sirs: It's Aquino Who's Useless Super Typhoon “Yolanda” survivors are calling Ping Lacson useless as rehabilitation czar (“Ping useless, say ‘Yolanda’ victims,” News, 5/17/14). That actually wasn’t quite as surprising as when President Aquino appointed him to that position a few months ago... Indeed, rather than work to help the survivors, Lacson has chosen to spend most of his time blabbing about the pork barrel scam and the infamous list of those allegedly involved in it... But the Yolanda survivors can’t blame Lacson more than they should blame President Aquino. Lacson’s appointment didn’t make sense from the very beginning but, true to the opportunist that he seemingly is, he didn’t turn down the position. So the bigger issue is President Aquino’s decision to appoint Lacson. Nothing much has been “delivered” by Malacañang since Yolanda. Yes, there was the news about “finished” bunkhouses for survivor-families, which were “inspected” and approved by President Aquino, but which turned out to have been substandard. So in a sense, the one who is useless is not Lacson but President Aquino himself, who can’t do anything significant for the Yolanda survivors except to appoint a useless bureaucrat to attend to them. —MELLIE SANCHEZ, melanie_sanchez1992@yahoo.com...

It has always been about evil versus evil and evil always won! At most times, we sanitize the filth of war or deodorize the stench of war by saying that "war may sometimes be a necessary evil." In the meantime, let's listen to what a great philosopher said on the subject: "Religion prevents our children from having a rational education; religion prevents us from removing fundamental causes of war; religion prevents us from teaching the ethics of scientific cooperation in place of the old fierce doctrines of sin and punishment.

In the Philippines, the only Catholic country since the 16th century, we Filipinos, as faithful Catholics, have been taught to believe that God will always provide us with what we pray for. In fact, in the bible, Matthew 7:7-8, it says: Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you; for everyone that asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened." In a recent report, however, released in January 2014 by the International Labor Organization (ILO), it says the Philippines has the highest unemployment rate for the previous year among the 10 member countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean). Philippine Daily Inquirer, May 21, 2014. Such is the power of prayer; but we are told that the trouble with us is that we do not pray hard enough; we must only pray harder. And Like damned fools in this God-forsaken country - in this already 21st century - in order to find employment - millions of us in the labor force still do pray a lot!
