The Greatest Enemy of the Filipinos in the Philippines

The greatest enemy of the Filipinos in the Philippines is not poverty, but the main cause of poverty - Christianity. Indeed, we Filipinos have never been educated to be the enlightened masters of religion in our own country. On the contrary, we have always been taught to be the frightened victims of superstition keeping us distorted spiritually as a people; and, twisted morally as a nation. Indeed, there is poverty of the deadliest kind - the poverty of the mind and heart. We Filipinos are the only people in the whole of Asia who are proud of having no standard of living with self-respect, dignity, and common human decency; but proud only of the standard of dying especially under poverty for the greater glory of Christianity in our sick and poor country historically...

Atheism According to Astronomer Carl Sagan

“Atheism is more than just the knowledge that gods do not exist, and that religion is either a mistake or a fraud. Atheism is an attitude, a frame of mind that looks at the world objectively, fearlessly, always trying to understand all things as a part of nature.” Carl Sagan. . . And there is nothing dreadful, nothing despicable, or even deplorable about nature that is a part of us. After all, we are all, ourselves, part of nature. Poch Suzara

Our Doctors and Nurses are just as Sick as everyone else in our Sick Society

I am often asked: What would our doctors and nurses be doing inside hospitals and health clinics if they did not acquire college education? Indeed, what a silly question. I ask a more intelligent question: How come the doctors and the nurses working inside hospitals and clinics with their college education to back them up never stand up TO speak up loud and clear against those silly statues of Jesus and Mary and the saints displayed inside corridors and hallways and rooms of hospitals and health clinic? Are they all trying to say that if medical healing fails, faith healing will succeed? Are all of our doctors and nurses really that sick? As sick as their sick patients? Jesus failed to finish his job in saving the world; in fact, more than 2,000 years ago, he promised to return to finish the job. Mary as a teen-ager got pregnant by a holy spirit. The saints of God have all been nothing but a disgrace to the human race. Why are the statues of these sick characters doing inside the hospitals and health clinics established in our poor and backward country? Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The Evils of Family Planning and Birth Control Measures in the Philippines

The more babies there are born in our poor and backward country, the development is better for the Catholic church, especially for its daily business more known as "baptism." Also, sooner or later, such babies will soon be children enrolling as students in schools, colleges, universities, and seminaries own and operated by the Catholic church in the Philippines. Thus, family planning and birth control measures specially for our women is a sin. It is immoral. They would considerably reduce the profitable business of Catholic education in this only Catholic country in Asia since the 16th century. At present, in this already 21st century, we produced in our poor and backward country 3 babies every minute or 180 babies every hour or 4,320 babies every day or 129,600 babies every month or 1.5 million babies every year. And to think that these poor babies are fathered by many jobless, if not homeless, - Filipinos, if not also fathered by many rich tourists. After all, IT'S MORE FUN IN THE PHILIPPINES. And to think that many of these babies have no birth certificate. Their mothers are not married. They are mostly single mothers. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The United Atheists of America

One of the many attacks on our country from the Religious Right is the claim that our country is a Christian Nation...not just that the majority of people are Christians, but that the country itself was founded by Christians, for Christians. However, a little research into American history will show that this statement is a lie. Those people who spread this lie are known as Christian Revisionists. They are attempting to rewrite history, in much the same way as holocaust deniers are. The men responsible for building the foundation of the United States were men of The Enlightenment, not men of Christianity. They were Deists who did not believe the bible was true. They were Freethinkers who relied on their reason, not their faith. If the U.S. was founded on the Christian religion, the Constitution would clearly say so--but it does not. Nowhere does the Constitution say: "The United States is a Christian Nation", or anything even close to that. In fact, the words "Jesus Christ, Christianity, Bible, Creator, Divine, and God" are never mentioned in the Constitution-- not even once. Nowhere in the Constitution is religion mentioned, except in exclusionary terms. When the Founders wrote the nation's Constitution, they specified that "no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States." (Article 6, section 3) This provision was radical in its day-- giving equal citizenship to believers and non-believers alike. They wanted to ensure that no religion could make the claim of being the official, national religion, such as England had. The Declaration of Independence gives us important insight into the opinions of the Founding Fathers. Thomas Jefferson wrote that the power of the government is derived from the governed. Up until that time, it was claimed that kings ruled nations by the authority of God. The Declaration was a radical departure from the idea that the power to rule over other people comes from god. It was a letter from the Colonies to the English King, stating their intentions to separate themselves. The Declaration is not a governing document. It mentions "Nature's God" and "Divine Providence"-- but as you will soon see, that's the language of Deism, not Christianity. As an atheist, I said it before, I say it again: America's Founding Fathers were atheists. It is time to reclaim America away from its hijackers - Christianity. It is time to rename the United States of America into what she always intended to be sooner or later - THE UNITED ATHEISTS OF AMERICA. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The Insanity Behind the Teachings of Christianity

"I am saying nothing against the charity of Christians; nothing against any kind of charity or goodness, But I say the Christians, in my judgment have done more harm than good. They may talk of the asylums they have built, but they have not built enough to hold the people who have been driven insane by their teachings." Robert G. Ingersoll Oh My dear Robert G. Ingersoll, in the Philippines, down through the centuries, the Catholic church has built not only enough churches and cathedrals, but also built more schools, colleges, universities, and indeed, seminaries to hold millions of Filipinos to learn how to be aimless as a sick people; and to learn how to be rudderless as a sick nation.

Facing Death with Self-respect and Dignity

Everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die. Joe Louis ... Oh my dear Joe Louis, wanting to go to heaven is just as silly and just as stupid at the same time. Silly, because the day we are born is the day we also begin to live in a dying body; and stupid, because even the bible says there is no such thing as life after death: "The dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward for the memory of them is forgotten." Eccl. 9:5... For my part, as an atheist, I say it again: the good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. It is, in this way, that we atheists, when it is time to face death, we die sober, and not drunk with illusions, confusions, or delusions. Poch Suzara

Pain and Suffering Make Men Develop Character

I was told by my teachers in school that evil is really good because in the end of its all we are placed in this world of pain, sin, and suffering to develop our character. If this were true, I asked: how come millions of children are born dead? How come they were not allowed to develop character? But my teachers would still insists evil is good as it is a blessing in disguise - that pain make men strong and faithful to Jesus - makes them have character - while pleasures of thought and the joys in life degrades man. Well, if this were true, it follows that those damned souls in hell should grow into greatness; while those silly souls in heaven should be ashamed of themselves lacking in character unhappily shrinking into souls miserably devoid of character.

OH JESUS - WHY ARE YOU ARE SUCH A CRY- BABY WIMP

“If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. Remember the words I spoke to you: ‘No servant is greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the One who sent me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin. He who hates me hates my Father as well. If I had not done among them what no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin. But now they have seen these miracles, and yet they have hated both me and my Father. But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: ‘They hated me without reason.’ John 15: 18-25 Oh Jesus, my dear Jesus, why are you are such cry-baby WIMP?

Without God Life is Devoid of Meaning. No Kidding!

theists believe that if there’s no god, then human life has no meaning, in the sense that there’s no point to it. As an atheist, I entirely agree. Especially as the devil is always present as a substitute for God's place who is always only omni-absent. I said it before, I say it again: It is wrong to believe that if we have no religion, life would have no meaning. On the contrary, if religion were mostly about the preparation for the next life in the next world after death, then religion establishes the silly psychology that life on this earth does not mean a damn thing. Well, if this were true, why don’t we all commit suicide and get on to the next life in the next world? The problem, however, is that everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die!

The Existence of Nothing is Better than the Existence of Something

The existence of nothing has never harmed anybody. Why then would a good God create something only to harm everybody? Look at the way God created all of us. When we arrived into this world via mother's womb: we were all wet, hungry, crying, bloodied, uncircumcised, and as unbelievers of the faith; we had no religion. We were all atheists. In fact, if all of us came out of mother’s womb happy, smiling, clean and healthy, well-fed, and already believing in the existence of the Supreme Being - no need for the atheists to make a fuss about the horrible existence of something.

Wow! Who is God? Where Did God come from? Where is God Going?

What are the different names of God and what do they mean? Answer: Each of the many names of God describes a different aspect of His many-faceted character. Here are some of the better-known names of God in the Bible: EL, ELOAH: God "mighty, strong, prominent" (Genesis 7:1; Isaiah 9:6) – etymologically, El appears to mean “power,” as in “I have the power to harm you” (Genesis 31:29). El is associated with other qualities, such as integrity (Numbers 23:19), jealousy (Deuteronomy 5:9), and compassion (Nehemiah 9:31), but the root idea of might remains. ELOHIM: God “Creator, Mighty and Strong” (Genesis 17:7; Jeremiah 31:33) – the plural form of Eloah, which accommodates the doctrine of the Trinity. From the Bible’s first sentence, the superlative nature of God’s power is evident as God (Elohim) speaks the world into existence (Genesis 1:1). EL SHADDAI: “God Almighty,” “The Mighty One of Jacob” (Genesis 49:24; Psalm 132:2,5) – speaks to God’s ultimate power over all. ADONAI: “Lord” (Genesis 15:2; Judges 6:15) – used in place of YHWH, which was thought by the Jews to be too sacred to be uttered by sinful men. In the Old Testament, YHWH is more often used in God’s dealings with His people, while Adonai is used more when He deals with the Gentiles. YHWH / YAHWEH / JEHOVAH: “LORD” (Deuteronomy 6:4; Daniel 9:14) – strictly speaking, the only proper name for God. Translated in English Bibles “LORD” (all capitals) to distinguish it from Adonai, “Lord.” The revelation of the name is first given to Moses “I Am who I Am” (Exodus 3:14). This name specifies an immediacy, a presence. Yahweh is present, accessible, near to those who call on Him for deliverance (Psalm 107:13), forgiveness (Psalm 25:11) and guidance (Psalm 31:3). YAHWEH-JIREH: "The Lord Will Provide" (Genesis 22:14) – the name memorialized by Abraham when God provided the ram to be sacrificed in place of Isaac. YAHWEH-RAPHA: "The Lord Who Heals" (Exodus 15:26) – “I am Jehovah who heals you” both in body and soul. In body, by preserving from and curing diseases, and in soul, by pardoning iniquities. YAHWEH-NISSI: "The Lord Our Banner" (Exodus 17:15), where banner is understood to be a rallying place. This name commemorates the desert victory over the Amalekites in Exodus 17. YAHWEH-M'KADDESH: "The Lord Who Sanctifies, Makes Holy" (Leviticus 20:8; Ezekiel 37:28) – God makes it clear that He alone, not the law, can cleanse His people and make them holy. YAHWEH-SHALOM: "The Lord Our Peace" (Judges 6:24) – the name given by Gideon to the altar he built after the Angel of the Lord assured him he would not die as he thought he would after seeing Him. YAHWEH-ELOHIM: "LORD God" (Genesis 2:4; Psalm 59:5) – a combination of God’s unique name YHWH and the generic “Lord,” signifying that He is the Lord of Lords. YAHWEH-TSIDKENU: "The Lord Our Righteousness” (Jeremiah 33:16) – As with YHWH-M’Kaddesh, it is God alone who provides righteousness to man, ultimately in the person of His Son, Jesus Christ, who became sin for us “that we might become the Righteousness of God in Him” (2 Corinthians 5:21). YAHWEH-ROHI: "The Lord Our Shepherd" (Psalm 23:1) – After David pondered his relationship as a shepherd to his sheep, he realized that was exactly the relationship God had with him, and so he declares, “Yahweh-Rohi is my Shepherd. I shall not want” (Psalm 23:1). YAHWEH-SHAMMAH: "The Lord Is There” (Ezekiel 48:35) – the name ascribed to Jerusalem and the Temple there, indicating that the once-departed glory of the Lord (Ezekiel 8—11) had returned (Ezekiel 44:1-4). YAHWEH-SABAOTH: "The Lord of Hosts" (Isaiah 1:24; Psalm 46:7) – Hosts means “hordes,” both of angels and of men. He is Lord of the host of heaven and of the inhabitants of the earth, of Jews and Gentiles, of rich and poor, master and slave. The name is expressive of the majesty, power, and authority of God and shows that He is able to accomplish what He determines to do. EL ELYON: “Most High" (Deuteronomy 26:19) – derived from the Hebrew root for “go up” or “ascend,” so the implication is of that which is the very highest. El Elyon denotes exaltation and speaks of absolute right to lordship. EL ROI: "God of Seeing" (Genesis 16:13) – the name ascribed to God by Hagar, alone and desperate in the wilderness after being driven out by Sarah (Genesis 16:1-14). When Hagar met the Angel of the Lord, she realized she had seen God Himself in a theophany. She also realized that El Roi saw her in her distress and testified that He is a God who lives and sees all. EL-OLAM: "Everlasting God" (Psalm 90:1-3) – God’s nature is without beginning or end, free from all constraints of time, and He contains within Himself the very cause of time itself. “From everlasting to everlasting, You are God.” EL-GIBHOR: “Mighty God” (Isaiah 9:6) – the name describing the Messiah, Christ Jesus, in this prophetic portion of Isaiah. As a powerful and mighty warrior, the Messiah, the Mighty God, will accomplish the destruction of God’s enemies and rule with a rod of iron (Revelation 19:15). WOWOWEE! Everybody knows God's name is this or that; but nobody, however, knows who or what God is or where God came from; or, where God is going! We only know that God is merciful and full of love and compassion for as long as he is always omniabsent, never omnipresent! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The trouble With Religion

The trouble with religion is that it has transformed natural death into something supernatural.

Holy Water Polluted in the Philippines

The only water that is holy taught in our schools, colleges, and universities is the holy water found inside the font of churches and cathedrals. There is therefore nothing sinful about throwing garbage and trash into our rivers and lakes and and bays. Such waters are not holy. They can be polluted at no harm to the environment or harm to our immortal souls. After all, God in the bible says: "Love not the world, neither the things in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him." 1 John 2:15 In the meantime, Researchers at the Institute of Hygiene and Applied Immunology at the Medical University of Vienna tested water from 21 springs in Austria and 18 fonts in Vienna and found samples contained up to 62 million bacteria per milliliter of water, none of it safe to drink. Tests indicated 86 percent of the holy water, commonly used in baptism ceremonies and to wet congregants' lips, and other religious ceremony such as blessing of the dead - was infected with common bacteria found in fecal matter such as E. coli, enterococci and Campylobacter, which can lead to diarrhea, cramping, abdominal pain, and fever. Nitrates, commonly found in fertilizer from farms, were also identified in the water. If ingested, water containing nitrates over the maximum contaminant level could cause serious illness, especially in infants younger than 6 months, which could lead to death if untreated, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Science as the Surest way to Achieve Health as a People and Wealth as a Nation

It is science alone that can solve the problems of hunger and poverty, of insanitation and illiteracy, of superstition and deadening custom and tradition, of vast resources running to waste, or a rich country inhabited by starving people...

We are all Sick Products of a Sick System of Education

"I believe that this nation can overcome its present difficulties... by only if every single Filipino is prepared to do his or her part in bringing about the meaningful change that we all seek." Cory Aquino, January 26, 1933 - August 1, 2009 Oh My Dear Cory Aquino: We are repeatedly told that poverty in the Philippines has nothing to do with the population explosion. It has mostly to do with unequal distribution of wealth due to, if not the result of – corruption here, there, and everywhere in our sick society. As a matter of fact, in this country, we all suffer from poverty of the worst kind – the poverty of the mind and heart. Otherwise, if we were blessed with healthy minds, and healthy hearts - we would not find ourselves: Too poor to solve the problem of our overcrowded barrios, towns, and cities. Too poor to solve the problem of our overcrowded hospitals and health clinics and cemeteries. Too poor to solve the problem of our overcrowded schools, colleges, and universities. Too poor to solve the problem of our overcrowded airports, piers, and harbors. Too poor to solve the problem of our overcrowded buses, jeeps, trains, planes, and ships. Too poor to solve the problem of our overcrowded roads, streets, and highways. Too poor to solve the problem of our overcrowded slum and squatter areas. Yes, indeed, we are a corrupt people under a corrupt government blessed by an equally corrupt church. But what could be more corrupt than men and women irresponsible and insensible enough to bring forth unwanted children into our sick and corrupt society? Meanwhile, ask any of the nation’s children who or what or where their parents are – they do not know. Most of these children do know, however, that their parents are busy working in the baby factory. Indeed, millions upon millions of our men have far more job openings for unskilled work in the baby factory than job openings for skilled work in the business of nation building. The fact is, due to population explosion, the Philippine economic pie is getting smaller and smaller. What is getting bigger and bigger, however, is only that “Pie in the Sky, by and by.” Sadly, not the living, but only the dead, if at all, can partake of this non-existing pie. Is it such a complicated mathematical equation to figure out that it is more practical to raise,feed, cloth, house, and educate children as they are planned products of planned copulation rather than babies to exist as reckless products of reckless fecundation? We are a people still mired in Third World mentality because millions of our mothers and fathers still believe that God will provide. As a matter of fact, even our high government officials have high hopes for the Philippines but not from science education, but only from divine intervention. In there hope for the Philippines? Yes there is if we can only learn to be more constructive intellectually, more creative culturally, and more productive scientifically - by being less destructive sexually.

How and Why a Million Babies are Born yearly in the Philippines

The 1.5 to 1.9 million babies born yearly in the Philippines are not produced by educated and happy women happily married to a happy husband living in a happy home with a happy job in a happy office; but produced mostly by miserable, frightened, and homeless tootie, frootie, and patooties obeying the power and authority of the Catholic bishops; especially for the greater glory of Christianity in the Philippines in this 21st century.

Restoring The Public's Faith in the Government

Restoring the public's faith in the government? It will be more of the same old mess. Faith is nothing more than pretending to know something, when in fact we know nothing. Faith is worse than reckless thinking. It is unthinking. Instead of faith, what we need from the government officials is to prove to the people daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly that the Philippine government is a government of the people, by the people, and for the people; and not a government of the government officials, by the government officials, and for the government officials. Especially as they are still so faithful saying their prayers to God daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly for the forgiveness of their sins and crimes. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Sick religion Poisons Everything

Religion poisons everything, a menace to civilization. It has become a threat to human survival... Christopher Hitchens... Oh my dear Christopher Hitchens, the poorest and the most backward country in Asia today is the Philippines. Thanks to religion as the main feature of a sick system of education, millions upon millions of Filipinos are still being taught in its schools, colleges, and universities to believe that life after birth is but a meaningless transition - a matter of damnation; but life after death will be more meaningful - a matter of eternal salvation. Thus, there is no such thing in the Philippines as the birth, growth, and development of civilization. There is only the growth of a sick population for the sake of Jesus and His sick gang behind the holy congregation operating tax-free in our poor and backward country as religious corporations.

President Benigno Simeon Aquino delivered his 5th State of the Nation Address (SONA) yesterday in the Session Hall of the House of Representatives, Batasang Pambansa. While he tried very hard to paint a rosy picture of SONA, the reality on the ground paints a different picture.

The real State of the Nation is the Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL) not yet submitted to Congress. The real State of the Nation is the upsurge of crimes, with murders, kidnappings, carjackings, and holdups happening daily all over the country, and increasing, especially in Metro Manila. The real State of the Nation is an active conflict with China, asserting its ownership of territories in the West Philippine Sea. The real State of the Nation is thousands of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) in harm’s way in Iraq, Syria, Libya, Israel, Sudan, Malaysia, and Singapore.

The real State of the Nation is the price of garlic is P300 per kilo. The real State of the Nation is the failure to rehabilitate Yolanda-damaged areas after nine months. Also, the failure to complete the housing program for Zamboanga City victims of the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) siege.

The real State of the Nation is continuing high maternal mortality rate and rising Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) cases.

The Filipino is worth thinking for

"Self-deception is the worst tragedy of the Filipino as a people." Historian Teodoro A. Agoncillo. . . Oh my dear Historian-Professor-Friend Agoncillo, thanks to our self-deception as a people, we are experiencing in this 21st century, a far more painful tragedy as a nation - our needless growth in population. We are now growing by 3 babies born every minute; or, 4320 babies daily; or, 129,600 babies monthly; or, 1,555,200 babies born yearly. According to the latest statistic - our population is now 100,000,000 million. At the rate of growth at 15 million Filipinos every 10 years by the year 2050 our population would have reached around 200 million Filipinos. . . I said it before, I say it again. In order to solve our troubles and problems as a nation in the here and now - it is not enough to believe that the Filipino is worth dying for. In fact, we better start believing that the Filipino is worth thinking for; especially if we hope to have a better future for the generations to come practising seriously birth control and family planning.

We still believe that human life is a defect, and that we need not bother with reconstruction. We must only seek obliteration. It is, in this way, that the religious traders or bible brokers still find it highly profitable to be selling what millions of anxious Filipinos are buying: - Jesus! In the meantime, there is nothing more destructive in our history than the hopeless resignation of our women to the outrages she has been taught to believe are declared to be ordained by Jesus.

Bertrand Russell's Last Message to the world before His Death in Feb 2, 1970

Bertrand Russell’s Last Message By Bertrand Russell This statement on the Middle East was dated 31st January, 1970, and was read on 3rd February, the day after Bertrand Russell's death, to an International Conference of Parliamentarians meeting in Cairo. The latest phase of the undeclared war in the Middle East is based upon a profound miscalculation. The bombing raids deep into Egyptian territory will not persuade the civilian population to surrender, but will stiffen their resolve to resist. This is the lesson of all aerial bombardment. The Vietnamese who have endured years of American heavy bombing have responded not by capitulation but by shooting down more enemy aircraft. In 1940 my own fellow countrymen resisted Hitler's bombing raids with unprecedented unity and determination. For this reason, the present Israeli attacks will fail in their essential purpose, but at the same time they must be condemned vigorously throughout the world. The development of the crisis in the Middle East is both dangerous and instructive. For over 20 years Israel has expanded by force of arms. After every stage in this expansion Israel has appealed to “reason” and has suggested “negotiations”. This is the traditional role of the imperial power, because it wishes to consolidate with the least difficulty what it has already taken by violence. Every new conquest becomes the new basis of the proposed negotiation from strength, which ignores the injustice of the previous aggression. The aggression committed by Israel must be condemned, not only because no state has the right to annexe foreign territory, but because every expansion is an experiment to discover how much more aggression the world will tolerate. The refugees who surround Palestine in their hundreds of thousands were described recently by the Washington journalist I.F. Stone as “the moral millstone around the neck of world Jewry.” Many of the refugees are now well into the third decade of their precarious existence in temporary settlements. The tragedy of the people of Palestine is that their country was “given” by a foreign Power to another people for the creation of a new State. The result was that many hundreds of thousands of innocent people were made permanently homeless. With every new conflict their number have increased. How much longer is the world willing to endure this spectacle of wanton cruelty? It is abundantly clear that the refugees have every right to the homeland from which they were driven, and the denial of this right is at the heart of the continuing conflict. No people anywhere in the world would accept being expelled en masse from their own country; how can anyone require the people of Palestine to accept a punishment which nobody else would tolerate? A permanent just settlement of the refugees in their homeland is an essential ingredient of any genuine settlement in the Middle East. We are frequently told that we must sympathize with Israel because of the suffering of the Jews in Europe at the hands of the Nazis. I see in this suggestion no reason to perpetuate any suffering. What Israel is doing today cannot be condoned, and to invoke the horrors of the past to justify those of the present is gross hypocrisy. Not only does Israel condemn a vast number. of refugees to misery; not only are many Arabs under occupation condemned to military rule; but also Israel condemns the Arab nations only recently emerging from colonial status, to continued impoverishment as military demands take precedence over national development. All who want to see an end to bloodshed in the Middle East must ensure that any settlement does not contain the seeds of future conflict. Justice requires that the first step towards a settlement must be an Israeli withdrawal from all the territories occupied in June, 1967. A new world campaign is needed to help bring justice to the long-suffering people of the Middle East. Poch Suzara

Let us Ask a More Intelligent Question

Question: "Why did God put the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the Garden of Eden?" Answer: God put the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the Garden of Eden to give Adam and Eve a choice to obey Him or disobey Him. Adam and Eve were free to do anything they wanted, except eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Genesis 2:16-17, “And the LORD God commanded the man, ‘You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die.’” If God had not given Adam and Eve the choice, they would have essentially been robots, simply doing what they were programmed to do. God created Adam and Eve to be “free” beings, able to make decisions, able to choose between good and evil. In order for Adam and Eve to truly be free, they had to have a choice. There was nothing essentially evil about the tree or the fruit of the tree. It is unlikely that eating the fruit truly gave Adam and Eve any further knowledge. It was the act of disobedience that opened Adam and Eve’s eyes to evil. Their sin of disobeying God brought sin and evil into the world and into their lives. Eating the fruit, as an act of disobedience against God, was what gave Adam and Eve knowledge of evil (Genesis 3:6-7). God did not want Adam and Eve to sin. God knew ahead of time what the results of sin would be. God knew that Adam and Eve would sin and would thereby bring evil, suffering, and death into the world. Why, then, did God allow Satan to tempt Adam and Eve? God allowed Satan to tempt Adam and Eve to force them to make the choice. Adam and Eve chose, of their own free will, to disobey God and eat the forbidden fruit. The results—evil, sin, suffering, sickness, and death—have plagued the world ever since. Adam and Eve's decision results in every person being born with a sin nature, a tendency to sin. Adam and Eve's decision is what ultimately required Jesus Christ to die on the cross and shed His blood on our behalf. Through faith in Christ, we can be free from sin's consequences, and ultimately free from sin itself. May we echo the words of the Apostle Paul in Romans 7:24-25, “What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God—through Jesus Christ our Lord!” For my part, as an atheist, I say throw all that biblical garbage out the window. We should, instead, ask a more pertinent question: Where exactly is tree of Knowledge of Good and evil existing and living on this earth today? Obviously, such a tree of Good and Evil never existed in the Philippines. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

God Loves Everyone - NO KIDDING

Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. The LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. 7The LORD said, "I will blot out man whom I have created from the face of the land, from man to animals to creeping things and to birds of the sky; for I am sorry that I have made them." Genesis 6:6-7 Before drowning by flooding to death every man, woman, and child in this world, except Noah and his family of 8 people, God shouted to Noah: "FUCK THE NEIGHBORS; SAVE THE ANIMALS! TWO OF A KIND!" I don't know about you religiously frightened saps. But as for me, after reading such sick truths revealed in the holy bible, I could never, ever again, believe, love, respect, worship, or adore such a monster otherwise more known as the Almighty, Just, Loving, Merciful, Most high, Most wise, Most Understanding, Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent, Omni-absent, patient, Perfect, Supreme, and Infinite loving God.

I ask: Has God Almighty nothing else better to do with his existence than just listen endlessly to the sick prayers of His own sick relatives already existing with Him in heaven? To have accomplished what on this earth? Especially in the Philippines already known throughout the world as a nation of prayers! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The Sick Religiious Mess Historical in the Philippines

"The world is in a mess because God sent his only begotten son. He should have come himself!" - - - Robert Byrne My Dear Robert Byrne - This was not a possible mission because God was much too busy having a hot and an endless love affair with the Virgin Mary whenever He had no time to be fucking around with the existence of the devil. In the meantime, how was it possible for the existence of more than 3,000 years of Judaism; the existence of more than 2,000 years of Christianity, and the existence of more than 1,300 years of Islam to have straightened the sick mess out of this world when such sick religions of this world have always been and still are what the sick mess in this world is mostly about? Especially the sick religious mess in the Philippines - the only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

We are a Nation of Sick Believers

“You can't convince a believer of anything; for their belief is not based on evidence, it's based on a deep seated need to believe” ― Carl Sagan . . . Indeed, if our system of education were more about learning HOW to think, and not just WHAT to believe, we could be intelligent thinkers as a healthy people, and not just be sick as a nation of frightened believers. After 400 years of silly Christianity, isn't time that we Filipinos move on with human decency in our own country enjoying as a people - intellectual and cultural prosperity; and not just forever be damned as a nation enjoying recycled garbage year and year out? Indeed, recycled social insanity, political mendacity, religious mediocrity, and economic insanity? Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The Scientists are always more Truthful and Honest

Who would you believe as being honest and truthful in their respective declarations - the frightened theologian who says that "God made you in His own image and likeness;" or the brightened scientist like Carl Sagan, in Cosmos, who says: “The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars. We are made of starstuff.” . . . for my part, I'd rather first and always believe the scientists - they never threatened me with eternal damnation if I refuse to believe such great men and women of intellect, integrity, and human dignity.

Oh My Dear President, Please Read your Holy Bible

"There are some who, no matter what I do, like attending this event, will always look for things to criticize. I just want to remind them: If you are my fellow Christians, it is our duty to love each other in the name of the Lord, instead of sowing confusion and misunderstanding." President Benigno Aquino 111 . . . Oh My dear Mr. President, please read your holy bible. In this way, you need not say things in public that are, in fact, contrary to what Jesus in the bible clearly stated: "If any man come to me and hate not his father and mother, wife and children, and brethren, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple."

Religion as the Biggest Business in the Philippines

Demand money with the threat of violence and you will get arrested. Do it with the threat of eternal damnation, and it is not only tax deductible, but also highly profitable for the self-appointed agents as God's preachers. Such agents as God's preachers are the Catholic bishops; Pastor Eduardo Manalo of INC; Pastor Eli Soriano of Dating Daan; Pastor Mike Velarde of El Shaddai' Pastor Eddie Villanueva of Jesus is Lord church; Pastor Apollo Quiboloy - the Appointed Son of God church. These God's preachers are among the rotten and corrupt filthy rich Filipinos in this poor and backward nation known as the Philippines - the only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century.

Joseph Accepts Jesus as His Bastard Son

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: when as his mother Mary was to be married to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit. Matthew 1:18... Obviously, before she got married, Mary was a Tootie-Frootie having sexual affair with the Holy Ghost... Wasn't this more about family insanity and nothing to do with family morality? Well, listen to another truth revealed by the inspired authors of God in the bible: - "A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD." But the Lord himself was a bastard son, wasn't he?. . . I asked: since Jesus felt he had no real mother who cared for him nor experienced the joys of father/son relationship, can we blame Jesus for declaring: "If any man come to me and hate not his father and mother, wife and children, sisters and brethren, nay, and his life also, he cannot be my disciple."

Our Greatest Riches in Christ

"Our greatest riches are the riches we have in Christ." Philippine Star, July 18, 2014. This is all so true for as long as we daily enjoy our faith in blind faith. Otherwise, we never see a poor Filipino getting to be filthy rich for believing that Christ is BAD. But we all see daily millions of poor Filipinos getting to be more filthy poorer and yet they faithfully believe that Christ is GOOD!

God Always Keeps His Promise

God is faithful to God's promises. Before you die, you will find acceptance and the love you crave. It will not come in the way you expect. It will not follow your needs and wishes. But it will fill your heart and satisfy your deepest desire. There is nothing to hold on but this promise. Cling to the naked promise in faith. Your faith will heal you. - - - Henri Nouwen In the meantime, it is true: there is nothing impossible with God. For example, it has never been impossible for God to break His promise to deliver at least 20 destructive typhoons to damage life and property in the Philippines. God has always faithfully kept His promise. - - - Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

God Has Always Provided For the Philippines

God has always provided for the Filipinos in the Philippines.

Not to mention sons and daughters of past corrupt presidents of the Republic too. Indeed, with God, nothing is impossible! . . . God has even made it impossible that the Philippine government should be of the people, by the people, and for the people; but a government only of, by, and for the rich children of the rich politicians loyal first to God and to His church; then loyal to themselves as they are the rich aiming to become filthy richer; and the poor to only get filthy poorer.. . .

Destructive Typhoons and Jesus In The Philippines

Typhoon “Glenda” dealt Metro Manila only a glancing blow of about three hours Wednesday, but it was enough to shut down the capital, leave the megacity a shambles and without power, and take at least 20 lives as it blew out into the West Philippine Sea after cutting a wide swath of destruction from eastern to southern Luzon. The number of fatalities in the first major typhoon of the Philippines’ brutal rainy season was hard to determine, as most parts of the stricken regions had no electricity and the main disaster agency groped in the dark for information. The powerful winds of Glenda (international name: Rammasun, which in Thai means “God of Thunder”) brought down trees, electric posts and ripped off roofs across Metro Manila, where government offices, schools and the stock market were shuttered for the day. Without electricity, the elevated commuter train services LRT and MRT were suspended and most of the city of 12 million people sweltered in the dark for more than half of the day. Glenda’s powerful winds shut down the two runways servicing domestic and international flights at Ninoy Aquino International Airport (Naia) at 7 a.m., paralyzing the entire airport operations for most of the morning as the typhoon passed just south of the capital. The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (Caap) opened the runways at 10:40 a.m., bringing back airport operations. . . Philippine Star, July 17, 2014 In the meantime, I have asked the Lord Jesus before, I ask the Lord Jesus again: Oh Lord, my dear Jesus, after all these past centuries, isn't your Father as yet sick and tired of providing destructive typhoons yearly for the Philippines? After all, we Filipinos are your only faithful and prayerful believers in the whole of Asia since the 16th century. Really Jesus, don't you think that it is time for you to tell your Father God to edit out the errors, terrors, and horrors written in His Divine Plan for us Filipinos in the Philippines?. . .

There is No such thing as Health

If health is a state of being well in body and in mind, indeed, free from diseases, then it follows that there is no such thing as health on a permanent basis. After all, the day we are born is the day we also begin to live in a dying body... In this connection, is it not also true that the science of medicine should be more truthful if it were called the "Science of temporary Health?" The day science conquers death and science will see to it that we can live on this earth for as long as we like, then and only then we could truthfully say that we are in "good health." . . .

They All Sound Selfish, Greedy, Stupid, Frightened, and Insane

It is easy to forgive the sick horrors of these religious leaders when they talk on TV about science: - the Catholic Bishops, Pastor Mike Velarde of El Shaddai, Pastor Eddie Villanueva of Jesus is Lord Church, Pastor Eli Soriano of Dating Daan, Pastor Felix Manalo of Iglesia Ni Cristo, Pastor Apollo Quiboloy - the appointed Son of God church. . . What is unforgivable, however, is when these religious leaders talk on TV about religion in general; especially talk about the bible in particular. They all sound more like a gang of frightened charlatans never knowing what they are talking about. . .

Why Am I an Atheist

I am an atheist because there is not an iota of veracity nor a modicum of reality in religion. There are only loads of lies and deceptions on the one hand; and, on the other hand, illusions and delusions. I love the search of the truth. Since the truth is most likely to be found in the book of wisdom, I need no longer bother to find the truth in the book of lies - the holy bible... I say throw that worthless bible out the window. Man's most noble of profession is the search of the truth. In the meantime, as an atheist, I want see not churches, but more hospitals built for the sick, more homes built for the homeless, more jobs created for the jobless, more thoughts for the thoughtless; I want more schools, colleges, and universities established to function not as commercial enterprises, but to serve as educational establishments. Indeed, a system of education that teaches millions of young people HOW TO THINK, and not WHAT THEY MUST BELIEVE LIKE SILLY FOOLS ARE GULLIBLE ENOUGH TO READILY BELIEVE. . .

The Greatest of Values in This Life

With all due love, respect, and affection, I must admit that no parents at home, no teachers in school, no priests in church, and no employer at work have ever taught me what Bertrand Russell taught me - the greatest of values in life: to always have the courage to try and put beauty into this world where nature has only put fear and ignorance. Indeed, to always stand up and to speak up, especially for this world. Our world. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Oh God, My Dear God of Love and Mercy

The trouble with our government, just like the trouble with our schools, colleges, and universities, just like the trouble with everything else in our poor, backward, corrupt, and sick society is GOD.

Pope John Paul 11 on Science and Religion

Science can purify religion from error and superstition. Religion can purify science from idolatry and false absolutes. . . Pope John Paul II. . . Oh my dear Pope John Paul 11, are you sure you know what exactly you are talking about? What makes you believe that the existence of the truthful nature behind science can be placed on the same level as the existence of the lies and deceptions behind religion? . . . Sir, science is a self-correction process. In the search of the truth science has been and still is way way ahead of religion. Science can never be a science unless it first enjoys the freedom from error and from the horror of superstition. Poch Suzara

It Is Time to be Disrespectful of the Evil Known as Religion

Question: - Should atheists show more respect and deference to religion? Isn't it disrespectful to religious theists to be so critical of their beliefs and values?. . . Response: - There is an increasingly popular notion that religion deserve automatic respect and deference from everyone — even those who don't share that religion or that theism. People attack atheists for failing to show the "appropriate" respect to religious and theistic beliefs. Atheists shouldn't say things which constitute pointed, direct, or harsh challenges to religious and theistic claims. At the risk of further accusations of myself being intolerant and disrespectful, I say to you believers: so, so what? . . . Atheist/scientist Richard Dawkins writes in The God Delusion: "As long as we accept the principle that religious faith must be respected simply because it is religious faith, it is hard to withhold respect from the faith of Osama bin Laden and the suicide bombers." Most religious believers don't respect the beliefs of bin Laden; that, however, requires not treating religious beliefs as inherently and necessarily deserving of our automatic respect; instead, we evaluate those beliefs on their own merit and react accordingly. This is what the "new atheists" or "militant atheists" do, but they do so to all religious beliefs.". . . Atheists are not responsible for making religious believers feel better about their religion or their theism. Atheists are not responsible for helping validate religious theism by treating it with a respect or deference that it hasn't earned. Atheists are not responsible for protecting the feelings of religious theists by not speaking out, showing where theists haven't supported their claims or where they have used childish arguments. . . Theists who believe they can't handle pointed, direct, and even harsh criticism of their religious and theistic beliefs always have the option of just not bringing them up. This is precisely the same choice facing every person and every belief: you can either put your belief out in public for comment and critique, or you can keep it to yourself. You don't have the option of putting your belief out in public and then insisting that everyone respect it or not criticize it. . . Indeed, as an atheist, I say it again: The most terrible thing we can do in this life, in this world, is to respect existence of evils, especially the greatest of evils - religion. One need not look far and wide to see the evil results of religion in a country like the Philippines. Today, in this already 21st century, Millions of faithful Filipinos are still hoping, waiting, and praying for the arrival of a Savior - a Son of God Jesus to introduce good health for ourselves as a people; and, to introduce good wealth for ourselves as a nation! Sadly, however, insanity comes in many shapes and forms. The worst kind of insanity in our country is the one that comes from the teachings of Christianity. She continues to support and maintain social and political and religious insanity in our poor and backward country! . . . In other countries, people eat to live in order to work harder for the achievement of the good life - the one inspired by love and guided by the learning of more and deeper knowledge. . . In the Philippines, however, thanks to Christianity and its teachings, we Filipinos eat to live so that we may continue to pray harder for the forgiveness of our insane sins against divinity; and, for the forgiveness of our insane crimes against our own country. Indeed, thanks to our endless respect of stupid religion, we Filipinos have neither time to grow healthy as a people. We have neither the energy to develop in wealth as a decent nation.

Human Stupidity Must Go Marching on Eternally

Good Men Have Alway Been Good for Nothing

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." - Edmund Burke (1729-1797) Most men have always been good; unfortunately, however, only always good for nothing.

The Silly and Spiritually frightened Editors of Philippine Star

Spread the gospel; it's contagious. Philippine Star, July 8, 2014 I said it before, I say it again: if only the serious editors of Philippine Star would bother to seriously read the gospel, they would not make such serious, malicious, vicious, and meretricious suggestions for its readers to follow seriously. Here’s love, peace on earth, and goodwill to all men, women, and children as gospel from Jesus Christ – the Prince of Peace – the Savior of Mankind, the loving Son of a loving God: Matt. 8:21-22 “And another of His disciple said unto Him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury the dead. Matt. 10:34-35 “Think not that I am come to send peace on earth. I came not to send peace, but a sword,” “For I am come to set a Man at variance against his father, and daughter against her mother.” Matt. 19:29 “And everyone that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name’s sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.” Mark 10:29-30 “There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel’s. But he shall receive a hundredfold now in time… with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.” Mark 13:12 “Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death.” Luke 12:51-53 :Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division. For from henceforth there shall be five to one house divided, three against two, and two against three. The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father, and the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother…” Luke 14:26 “ If any man come to me and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, and yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:33 “So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not that all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.” Luke 19:27 “But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them for me.” St John 12:25-26 “He that loveth his life shall lose it; he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal; . . .
