Religious Leaders

Religious leaders such as Mike Velarde of El Shaddai would urge his poor followers to turn their umbrella upside down in order to catch manna from heaven. What the followers do catch, however, is not manna, not even rotten banana, but a lot of tra-la-la behind the silly religious drama. Poch Suzara

My mind is not a terrible thing

My mind is not a terrible thing. On the contrary, my mind is a wonderful thing. It is only terrible when the potentials of my
mind are utterly wasted. Poch Suzara

I care for Happines

I care for happiness in this world. I do not care for happiness in the next world. There ins't any. Whatever the case may be, I hold
as forever true what Bertrand Russell wrote: "Happiness is the nonethelesss true happiness because it must come to an end, nor do thought and love lose their value because they are not everlasting. Poch Suzara

Nothing before Birth and Nothing After Death

It does not bother to realize that I have arrived into this world as an atheist. I should be happier when I leave this world one day as an atheist too. Before I was conceived, without a brain, I had no capacity to believe. After I am dead, and my brain dead also, I will again have no capacity to believe. Indeed, if it does not bother me to believe that I was a nothing before I was born, why should it bother me to believe that I will again be a nothing after I am dead? Poch Suzara

I have Nothing Against

I have nothing against Filipino scientists except when they are too timid to speak out openly against false values and silly beliefs that continue to promote not only stupidity but also insanity in our already sick society. Poch Suzara

What is the difference?

What is the difference between human creed and human greed when one destroys the body and the other destroys the mind? Poch Suzara

The Human Brain

If God gifted us with a brain and expect us to use it, how come our knowledge of God have not grown with more knowledge of his creation? Indeed, even the theologians in this day and age know not whether God is a He, a She, and It; or, whether Gid a supernatural Tootie Frootie, or just an Almighty Patootie. Poch Suzara

A silly God

Why would a good God incarnate himself as a man knowing full well that man is essentially sinful by nature? But then again, why would God reveal himself to the theologians knowing full well that theology is not a branch of knowledge; it is but a branch of ignorance and with wings at that. Poch Suzara

Science in brief

Science in brief: - today's up-to-date is tomorrow's out-of-date. Indeed, nothing is definite in science as it's findings are tentative and always subject to change or emendations. Poch Suzara

Philippine Presidents

At the rate all presidents of the Philippines, past and present, have prayed for divine intervention to solve the nation's troubles and problems, Malacanang has been transformed into a cathedral, and no longer a presidential palace. Poch Suzara

Atheists

I have the highest respect, the greatest of admiration, and the deepest affection for the atheists. To begin with, those atheistic friends and atheistic associates of mine are not in Congress. Poch Suzara

Religion and Alzheimer's

Religion is like a disease, exactly like alzheimer's - it destroys the mind. Happily, both evils are curable by science. Poch Suzara

Metaphysics and Religion

Metaphysics and religion are one and the same thing. One is beyond physics and the other beyond reality. It's comforting to believe in either just as long as one does not discover that both metaphysics and religion are based on a lot of unscientific nonsense. Poch Suzara

Jesuit Astronomers

Jesuit astronomers say that astronomy is the study of the universe in order to find God. Apparently, these Jesuit astronomers do not believe that God is here, there, and everywhere. Poch Suzara

Wealthy individuals

There is no such thing as wealthy individuals in the Philippines. Despite their millions, Christianity has stolen away from such wealthy individuals their precious minds and precious hearts.They are just as poor as everyone else in this God-forsaken only Christian country in Asia. Poch Suzara

Our democracy Without Science

Our democracy is a farce, a fraud, and a ceremony. It has yet to flourish in a climate of rationalism that sees ideas and beliefs as true and others as false. Science needs democracy as much as democracy needs science. The two in fact are one and neither exist in the Philippines.

A democracy without science, encourages the cult of mediocrity, fosters vulgarity, generates political stupidity, and enhances infantile religiosity. In the end, what prevails is social insanity, hardly a democracy. Poch Suzara

Theologians tell me

Theologians say that the human body is a temple of God. No kidding?. Right at this very minute there are about 2 billion different kinds of viruses, germs, and bacteria trying to kill your body and my body and such little creatures created by God will eventually succeed to kill us all whether we pray or do not pray to God. Indeed, the day we are born is the day we begin to live in a dying body. There is no escape! None whatsoever! Poch Suzara

God's design

If my pair of eyes were such that it is a product of God's design, I would have no need for a microscope to see things in the small; or, a telescope to see things far away. Science, and not religion, designed the microscope and the telescope. Poch Suzara

No Kingdom

No kingdom has ever had more hate and misery and poverty than the kingdom of Christ. Such is the case in the Philippines. In this only Christian country in Asia, in order to enter the kingdom of Christ, one must use the gates of hell. Poch Suzara

Think of It

Think of it: Our national hero Jose Rizal earned his first class education and earned his membership in first class scientific associations in foreign countries. Poch Suzara
