I Was Once A Devout Catholic

Indeed, I was once a devout Catholic. If there were a God, however, that I will meet after I am dead, the first thing I will do is to ask God to forgive me for having wasted some 18 precious years of my life as a heartless Christian in general and a mindless Catholic in particular. Poch Suzara

There is No God

Only a fool says there is no God. For my part, I would rather be a fool than believe that we can pray daily to God to "give us this day our daily bread" and then see men, women and children starving to death even as they love, worship, and adore such a God. Poch Suzara

The Power of Prayer

i am told that prayer works. Look at Mary, the Mother of God, who asked the world to pray for the conversion of Russia. It worked. Communism has collapsed in Russia. Well, how come the prayers of Catholic Russians themselves did not work when they prayed for the prevention of communism to spread throughout Russia to begin with? Poch Suzara

If Prayer Works

If prayer works, how come we still need hospitals? How come we still need the medical profession? How come we still need to improve the existence of medical science and technology? Indeed, if prayer works, how come health has not yet been made contagious by the power of God as the result of the power of prayer? Poch Suzara

If Stupidity Causes Trouble

If intelligence causes trouble, what is needed is not less, but more intelligence. It is same thing with freedom: If freedom causes trouble, what is needed is not less, but more freedom. It is not the case, however, with stupidity for, if stupidity causes trouble, what is needed is not more, but precisely no more stupidity. Poch Suzara

Vision

When there is no vision, people perish. When there is vision, people flourish. As the only Christian country in Asia since the 15th century, where is the vision for the here to love our fellow-citizens, and where is the vision for the now to love our country? Poch Suzara

If There is No God

If there is no God everything is permissible? In fact, since there is always available from God at any time the forgiveness of sins and crimes everything is permissible that makes for our sick and insane society. Poch Suzara

We Arrive At The Truth

We arrive at the truth not by easy praying but by hard thinking. Most people, however, do not like to think. They already know and enjoy the truth. It's called the Revealed Truth. The problem, however, with the Revealed Truth is that it has not yet been revealed to the Filipinos; it has only been revealed by God to His chosen people - the Jews. Poch Suzara

Education in the Philippines

What is education all about in the Philippines - the only Christian country in Asia? Six years in grade school. Four years in high school. Another four to six years in college. It is all about learning how to pray, and how love, worship, and adore a Jewish God who will provide as He provided us with a son Jesus born in a manger and died on a stick in Israel some two thousand years ago. And to think that Israel today is not a Christian country. It continues to be a Jewish State. Poch Suzara

Crucified Dead On The Cross

After he had been crucified dead on the cross, Jesus managed to resurrect himself back to life to be the Savior of the world. Sadly however, Jesus forgot to resurrect the dead level of intelligence of the dummies who had him crucified dead on the cross over nothing and for the sake of accomplishing nothing. Thus, as the Savior of the world Jesus was a failure! He miserably failed to save the world. Even the faithful believers on these pages are in desperate need of a Savior today! Poch Suzara

Curiosity Killed The Cat

Curiosity killed the cat. At least before the cat died, it was curious. What's shameful are those higher forms of animals, and with college diploma at that. I know many of them have already died and not one that I know of was ever curious. Poch Suzara

Success in Life

It is quite easy to be a success in life, specially if your ambition were only to do with licking the rear of others. It is much harder, however, to be a failure in life. Specially if your ambition were more to do with licking the fear in others. Poch Suzara

Atheistic Responsibility

There are those of us who have learned to love and enjoy not only the maturity, but especially the responsibility of atheism. For Christ's sake, why should we go back to the childish gullibility behind the irresponsibility that continues to grace the immaturity of theism always at variance with humanism? Poch Suzara

My Precious Mind

I have already gifted half of my soul to God in hell and the other half I have also gifted it to the devil in heaven. I hope those two supernatural morons are already satisfied with my generosity. Both should now stop fighting each other over winning my silly soul. Meanwhile, never will I ever again surrender to divinity or to deviltry the most priceless treasures I possess in this world: My most precious mind. Poch Suzara

The Love of Money

The bible says: "The love of money is the root of all evil." Sadly, Jesus Christ never addressed this issue. Thus, both in the Christian and non-Christian world today, the love of money keeps everybody not only in an evil mess due to the lack of it, but those who have tons of money, they only continue to be selfish, greedy, stupid, and insane.
In the meantime, in the Philippines. the only Christian country in Asia, if you steal small, you go to jail. Steal big, however, and you automatically qualify to be a candidate for Congress. Poch Suzara

The Free Mind

Rree will is great; fortunately, the good will is greater; but more fortunately, however, is the free mind. It is the greatest. There is absolutely nothing quite like it in all of nature. Poch Suzara

The Difference

It is easy to tell the difference between a moron and an idiot. An idiot can easily be frightened with ideas. A moron, however, from the cradle to the grave, has always been afraid of his own thought even if he has been thoughtless for most of his life. Poch Suzara

According To The Bible

According to the bible: "The dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward." Eccls 9:5. Sadly, however, among my classmates in De la Salle Colege, inspite the fact that they are not yet dead, they still love to know not anything and they expect to be rewarded for it happily in the next life in heaven. Poch Suzara

If Jesus Christ Had Only

If Jesus Christ had only sacrificed himself to make amends not for the sins of man, but precisely for the sins of God; indeed, to have asked the human race to forgive divine disgrace, Christianity today need not have to believe that God made man in His own image and likeness. Poch Suzara

My atheist brother-in-law

My atheist brother-in-law was dying of cancer. A distant relative called me on the phone to inquire if he already turned back and now believes in God? I said: "No, I hope not. God's already killing him and you expect the poor fellow to love, worship, and adore his killer?" Poch Suzara
