The Scientist
The scientist has a lot of experience with ignorance, doubt, and uncertainty. Fortunately, the scientific way of thinking is not the monopoly of the scientist. We too, ordinary men and women, can enjoy the scientific way of thinking and learn to deal with our own ignorance, doubt, and uncertainty as we must all be involved in the search for the truth.Poch Suzara
Need Not Waste Time
If we could only learn to see not far, but near - the future. If we could only learn to be happy here and now. If we could only learn to live in peace and harmony together as one happy family. We need not waste precious time and energy preparing for the next life as there isn't any. Poch Suzara
Our Sick Society
Ours is a sick society because of our sick beliefs and sick values.We think so big of the man of material wealth, but we think so little of the man of mental health. In fact, we do not think at all. We leave all our troubles and problems in the hand of God. As if God has a hand. Poch Suzara
Saddest Day of my Life
Today is the saddest day of my life. It just dawned on me that I should be the one to pray to God to help my friends and relatives develop the habit of critical reading and thinking. Poch Suzara
MAN differs from an ANIMAL
Man differs from an animal only by a little. "Most men," said Confucius, "throw that little away." Indeed, dominated by a silly theology, most men throw away their sense for common human decency to elevate humanity. Like frightened faithfools, they would rather please a silly divinity in hell always blessed by a stupid deviltry in heaven. Poch Suzara
Poverty-stricken Filipinos
Millions of poverty-stricken Filipinos love, worship, and adore God who, we are told, has been and still is well-established in his eternal state of divine perfection. I should think, however, that aside from a good will, God might also, with the help of His own free will, duly reciprocate the Filipino affection. Poch Suzara

Religious people
Religious People turn to religion because, according to them, science has dismally failed to answer all of their fundamental questions. If religion, however, has been and still under the inspiration of all-knowing God, why should religious people bother with science in the first place? Poch Suzara

If you were already confused
If you were already confused and want to enjoy even more confusion, read the bible. It has yet to be clear, for example, as to where exactly Jesus Christ was crucified n a cross or whether he was hang on a tree. In Matt. 23:33 Jesus was crucified on a cross in Golgotha. In Acts 5:30 Jesus was hang on a tree. In Revelation 11:18 Jesus was also crucified in Sodom and Egypt. Poch Suzara
I believe in Free Will
Of course I believe in free Will. I have to. I have no other choice as I am even stuck with it. In the meantime, for me to believe that I can control the flow of blood inside my veins is just as ludicrous for me to believe that I can also control the flow of beliefs inside my head. Poch Suzara
The All-knowing God
If the Christian God were all-knowing, how come the Christian theologians do not know all the answers? And worse, how come in the Christian community everybody lives in fear of the unknown? Poch Suzara
The American Power
In order to prove to the world that the USA is the wealthiest and most powerful country in the world, the American government would search not for friendly nations, but search only for enemies to destroy with its wealth and military power. Poch Suzara

God Proud of Man
In the Old Testament, God repented that He had made man because man was wicked and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil (Genesis 6:5-6). In the New testament, as man crucified His only begotten Son on the cross, God again must duly have repented that He had made man. Ever since then however, as the Christians and the Jews and the Muslims have not ceased to hate and kill each other in God's name, how could God not be so happy and not be so proud to have made man on this earth? Poch Suzara
I envy the Animals
I envy the animals. They do not have to go to school to learn how to love, worship and adore God. They do not have to learn how to be greedy, selfish, stupid and insane. But I envy animals even more because I do not see them in church praying to God for the forgiveness of their sins and crimes. Exactly what our politicians and theologians do every Sunday in church.

Weird Things to Believe
If people believe in weird things, it is only because they have not been taught HOW to think; only WHAT to believe. Poch Suzara
A Good Society
A good society must be progressive. It must lead on to better values and better beliefs. Indeed, progress is utterly worthless unless it means progress in the scientific way of thinking where, in our ever changing world, questions become far more valuable than the answers.

Mess in our World
Christianity, Judaism, and Islam have not ceased making a mess of our world. Each of this great religions have not ceased promoting hate of the other; hate of this life; and hate of this world. Indeed, we live in a sick world because of sick beliefs and sick values. Throw all these sacred nonsense out the window and with the help of science, we can have all the opportunity to transform this world, our world - into
an earthly paradise. In the meantime, it is often ask: can science and religion merge? I say Yes, they can; but before the merger can seriously take place, religion must first merge with other religions. The Christians, Muslims, and the Jews have not ceased cutting each other’s throats because, to begin with, they cannot religiously agree as to what will happen to them after their stupid throats are cut.

Mad World
I was created into this mad world not of my own making; and the theologians have the gall to tell me that I must be grateful to my creator for having gifted me born with a free will. But Billions upon billions of people before me have also been born with a free will, and so, what kind of religious bunkum are the theologians saying to me? Poch Suzara
Science is True only
People tell me that "science" is only true in its own way. "Theology" could just as readily be "true" in another. Unfortunately in the subject of theology, there is room for confusion. In science, the search for clarity and consistency is never a delusion. Poch Suzara

The Wisdom of the Wise
From genesis in the Old Testament up to revelation in the New Testament including all the way up to our age of science and technology, God has not ceased still trying hard to deliver the promise that he had made for mankind since Adam and Eve: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent." (Corinthians 1:19) No wonder Judaism, Christianity, and Islam have been among the best and the greatest of religions in the eyes of God Almighty. Poch Suzara
The Man of Faith
The man of faith cripples reason. This a lesser evil. The greater evil, however, is that the man of faith is like a drunkard who clings to a lamppost for support; not illumination. Poch Suzara
