Evil

The existence of evil before humans arrived on this planet, proves without a shadow of a doubt that an all-powerful, all-good, and all-loving God had already died. If God were still alive today, however, such a God is not worth believing nor loving. Meanwhile, a mystery plus obscurity plus deviltry equals the Holy Trinity invented by silly theology.

Christians at War

Christians at war with each other cannot be at peace with their heavenly Father. Christians, however, who are at war with non-Christians make their heavenly Father so proud of them. Poch Suzara

Existence of God

Any debate on the existence of God, not matter how brilliant the arguments for or against, can never be decided at all because even God can never be around to judge who won in the debate. Poch Suzara

Educated Mind and Heart

Our system of education does not encourage human benevolence; on the contrary, it stultifies the potential for human intelligence. education is suppose to promote,
not demote the human mind; indeed, suppose to nourish, not malnourished, the human heart.

In the Philippines, thanks to our schools, colleges, and universities we are mainly taught how to be happy and proud as the Sick Man of Asia. It is, in this way, that we must always have contempt for those others who have the capacity to think. Poch Suzara

One Ambition

As an atheist, I have only one ambition in life. Before I leave this world, I would like to be accused of having corrupted the minds not only of our youth, but also those of the middle-aged, and the senior citizens. If this were ever accomplished, I shall not have died in vain. Poch Suzara

A Banana Republic

Never say that the Philippines is a Banana Republic because that would only be an insult to the Banana. After all, the Banana is a lovely tree that produces delicious fruits. But then again consider a Banana plantation exempted from a system of education that keeps it away from silly politics as inspired by a silly religion. Poch Suzara

If only God's purpose

If only God's purpose in creating the world were to make humans happy, and not to make humans glorify Him, no one would think of God, as I do, as some sort of an egomaniac unworthy of either belief or worship. Poch Suzara

The poor Iraqi people

Why are the Iraqi people today who are fighting for love of country called "rebels" or "terrorists?" In the meantime, this business of the US President Bush crusading as a Christian for American freedom and democracy in Iraq is a crime against the American people who are now the target of Muslim outrage. Poch Suzara

If God did not exist

Imagine if God does not exist. We will all stop looking to heaven for solutions to all our earthly problems down here as we will no longer believe that God will provide from up there. Poch Suzara

The Second Coming of Christ

"And now, little children, abide in him, that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before him at his coming." 1john 2:28. What is the purpose of a second coming if the first coming were already a great and a wonderful success? To begin with, His mission on earth was to destroy the devil. How come the devil is still alive and kicking and residing in the Philippines - the only Christian country in Asia? Poch Suzara

United Nations citizenship

If just 2 billion of us throughtout the world pay $10.00 each as dues for citizenship of the United Nations, the UN will have $20 BILLION dollars every year for expenses to maintain its own Armed Forces as a World Government to insure peace and goodwill among nations of the world. The 21st century view that only the United States of America has the right and the power to be the world's policemen should already be obsolete. Poch Suzara

Hope for Peace

Is there hope for peace? Yes, there is. The bow and arrow were once weapons of attack and defense with an aim to destroy, but today it is an art of Archery - a pure exercise in skill. Fencing and sword fighting too have become a sport in the Olympic Games. Who knows, one day, our nuclear weapons may be used to offset killer meteors on the way to destroy the planet earth. Poch Suzara

Terrorism

"Terrorism is the best political weapon as nothing drives people harder than the fear of sudden death." Hitler. Today, US President Bush and his gang are saying exactly the same thing to the American people. Poch Suzara

Destructive

If being destructive were part of human nature, how come we are born crying with mama already on our side? Poch Suzara

Food for body and mind

What is food for the body if it were not ambrosial? The same goes with food for the mind: it has to be controversial. Poch Suzara

Jaime Cardinal Sin

Jaime Cardinal Sin, the Archbishop of Manila, had a heart attack and was rushed to the hospital. Nobody, however, thought of rushing him to church. What happened to the power of prayer? Poch Suzara

Religion

Why is it that religion has all the answers for everybody and yet has solutions for nobody? Poch Suzara

Love your enemies

Love your enemies according to Jesus and turn the other cheek if someone smite thee on thy right cheek. On the other hand, Jesus also said: "Depart from me you cursed one, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels. Matt. 25:41. Yet we are told that Jesus was the paragon of love, the prince of peace, the savior of the world. Poch Suzara

If we die

If we die, shall we live again? Job 14:14. I ask: If we shall live again after we are dead and gone, doesn't that make death nothing but a sick joke? Poch Suzara

God so loved the world

God so loved the world in that He gave his only begotten Son. Too bad God had no begotten daughter. She could have done a better job in straightening out the mess in this world. Poch Suzara
