People Believe

People believe in weird things and wrongly so only because they have not been taught HOW to think, only taught WHAT to believe. Poch Suzara

Dirty politics and Dirty Religion

Dirty politics is just like dirty religion: both are generated by dirty lies. In this connection we should rather embrace science, especially the scientific way of thinking. Its values are based on the search of the truth while it debunks on the side religious lies as well as political lies. Poch Suzara

Afraid to Live

Not to be aware, involved, interested, concerned, and indeed not to live amount to exactly the same thing. In the meantime, those who are afraid to die, sadly, are also afraid to live. Poch Suzara

Life's Meaning

Life's meaning, if any, must found not outside, but inside one's self; just as much as there are billions of galaxies out there, the meaning of the world lies not outside, but inside our world. What is the purpose of meaning if it were not graspable inside our own minds and hearts? Poch Suzara

Sin brings Fear

"Sin brings fear, but confession brings freedom." Indeed, the freedom to commit more sins. Under this vicious circle, however, instead of assiduity behind rationality, only more daily stupidity. Poch Suzara

Travels in life

I am quite a success in my travels around the world and indeed around the sun yearly. Indeed, I have traveled 75 times around the sun 93 million miles from the Earth. And for free at that. I am, however, happier for my great mom. She has successfully traveled, as of last week, September 12, 2012, around the sun 99 times already and it looks life she will carry on the astronomical journey for a few more years yet to come.

Thanks to Russell and Sagan

Thank you Bertrand Russell for assisting me recapture the most priceless treasure stolen away from me as a boy in school: my most precious mind. Thank you Carl Sagan for assisting me recapture another most precious thing stolen away from me as a little boy in school: my precious world. Indeed, this is our world. This world does not belong to non-human entities. The world belongs to us. Poch Suzara

Organized Religion

Organized religion are institutionalized superstition, shared confusion, a farrago of nonsense, and a tribal malevolence based on fear and ignorance. For my part, I thank God that just like you and everyone else, I too was born an atheist. How silly it would have been if any of us had come out of our mother's womb bringing along with us the holy bible while singing the "Ave Maria." Poch Suzara

If Ignorance is Bliss

If ignorance is bliss why is there so much misery in our sick society under the management of college graduates from the most prestigious universities established in the Philippines with Christian beliefs and inspired by Christian values? Poch Suzara

If God Exist

I should think that if God exist, it would be far more beneficial for God to believe in us rather than for us to believe in Him. After all, God has the kingdom, the power, and the glory. We humans have nothing to offer God except perhaps our silly souls that have been created in his own mage and likeness! Poch Suzara

Beliefs are Worthless

Beliefs are utterly worthless unless they are based on facts. The curious thing about a fact, however, is that even if there is no one there to believe it, a fact will remain a fact. Poch Suzara

What is Success?

If success were what most men settle for since they are unable to think of something noble enough to be failing at, then I am most proud to be a failure in life. Indeed, I am still, however not yet successfully, though somehow happily, trying to rescue men and women and children up and out from the quagmire of superstition. Poch Suzara

Our Ancestors

Our parents, grandparents, great-grandparents all in their time faithfully believed in the Second coming of Christ. Must we also encourage our children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren to
waste their precious time and energy to believe and to have faith
in the same old biblical lies? Poch Suzara

The Philippine government

The function of the Philippine government is not about public service; on the contrary, it is more about public disservice. To begin with, government officials habitually give the public impression that they are the masters, and not the public servants of the people, by the people, and for the people. Poch Suzara

Religious Fanatics

In God's name, and since time immemorial, there existed many religions in our world. Sadly, even up to today, religions hate each other daily and at war against the other yearly. Hopefully, God must no longer be repenting that He had made man on earth. After all, in the ultimate analysis, God made man in his own image and likeness. Poch Suzara

Ignorance and Free Will

Ignorance leads to fear. Fear leads to superstition. Superstition leads to sacred belief. Sacred belief leads to faith. Faith leads to sacred lies. Sacred lies lead back to ignorance. It is all about a merry-go-round called "Free Will." Poch Suzara

Philippine Institutions

Our government and other established institutions are managed by men and women with college degrees from prestigious universities in the Philippines. As a high-school dropout, I am most proud to be fully aware that I play no part in the daily mess that's actually keeping the Filipino poor as a people and the Philippines backward as a nation. Poch Suzara

If Men were polygamous

If men were polygamous, how come prostitution throughout the centuries has been an exclusive service rendered by women and not by men? Poch Suzara

No One is Perfect

The bible says: "Be ye therefore perfect, even as your father which is in heaven is perfect." Matt. 5:48. For my part, as he made my life simpler, I would rather listen to Bertrand Russell who, with all honesty, admitted: "No one is perfect, and we should not be bothered by the fact that we are not perfect." Poch Suzara

Philippine Elections

In our elections, the candidates are even willing to kill each other in order to win a high position in the Philippine government. After all, one of the greatest thrills that life has to offer is the joy of being able to spend recklessly money that does not belong to you. Poch Suzara
