Christianity thrives not on love but on guilt. For all of its alleged concern for the “poor in spirit,” Christianity does its best to perpetuate spiritual poverty, social misery, and intellectual vacuity. Thus, “Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Poch Suzara

It is a Miracle
It is indeed a miracle that in every war, soldiers on both sides pray fervently for victory, but only one side wins. Yet those victorious believe their prayers have been answered, and those defeated do not cease to pray to kill the enemy in the future. God must be so proud of Himself. Poch Suzara
The Death of Christ
There are six descriptions of the death and burial of Jesus Christ and the discovery of his empty tomb and all six do not harmonize with either consistency or uniformity. See the 4 gospel writers; plus the speech of Paul in Acts 13:26-34; and Acts 5:30 where Jesus was not crucified on a cross, but hanged on a tree. Poch Suzara
The Price of Superstition
If you think education is expensive, consider not only the price of ignorance but more so the price of superstition always in friendly terms with ignorance. Poch Suzara
Bible Absurdities
“Every son that is born ye shall cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall save alive.” Ex. 1:22
"But if she bear a maid child, then she shall be unclean two weeks, as in her separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying threescore and six days." (Leviticus 12:5)
“And now Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive? . . . Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But the women chlldren, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves. Lev. 31: 15, 18,19.
“Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father. . . And they made their drink wine that night also; and the daughter arose, and lay with him; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose. . . Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.” Genesis 19: 32-36.
“For this Melchisedec, King of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him; . . . Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.” Heb. 7:1-3. Where in hell is Melchisedec? How come nobody has seen this fellow anywhere in the world? Obviously, he is still alive. Why Is he like God out there always hiding away from the problems and troubles of our world down here?
“. . . Hath he not sent me to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you?” ll Kings 18:27
Another author was equally inspired by God to write down exactly the same silly sacred words: “. . . Hath he not sent me to the mean which sit on the wall that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you?” Isaiah 36:12 Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#
Jesus Was Not a Writer
Jesus never wrote a book or even an article or an essay or even a letter. He wrote, however, on the ground with his finger. See John 8:6. Imagine the Son of the Creator of the universe. He had neither paper nor pencil in the community where He lived. And this is the Savior of the world who could raise the dead back to life, but he could not write down the medical information to help raise the standard of the medical profession of his time and place.

Free Will
If God gifted man with a free will it means that we have the free choice to choose which religion to embrace or to have faith in. In the meantime, in this world, hate and violence and war are rooted precisely due to, if not because of, none of us have the free will to choose which religion to accept to which to reject, or, for that matter to reject all of the great religions of the world.

Logic
It seems clear enough that the logic of the theists is based upon the logic of Aristotle made obsolete with the power of Christian ethics. The logic of the atheists, however, is derived from the logic of Bertrand Russell made modern with
the power of mathematics. Poch Suzara

Designer of Nature
There are beauties and ugliness in nature. To believe that there exists a designer means that there is also a manufacturer of nature. Obviously, if there were a manufacturer, it is certainly bereft of taste or quality control. It just continues doing its job manufacturing recklessly, if not meaninglessly, not to mention aimlessly. I ask: where is nature heading? Neither its designer nor its manufacturer, if were there any, knows. Poch Suzara
At The Heart of Everything
At the heart of everything is not an answer, but a simple question leading to even more complex questions. That is how I try to look at everything. No, I am not a scientist or a philosopher or even a mathematician. I just enjoy playing, rightly or wrongly, with my mind – free as it is. Poch Suzara
Poor and Notorious
I have met Filipino women who dropped out of high school in order to support their parents, brothers and sisters. A few have even ended up to be rich and famous. For my part, I dropped out of high school because I wanted to learn and to embark on a lifetime adventure in learning. No, I did not become rich and famous. However, in the world of mediocrity supported by gullibility, I certainly got to be poor and notorious; specially,
as I got to be more studious. Poch Suzara

The idiot Box
Whenever I turn on the TV set I feel like I am really the Sick Man of Asia. After I turned it off watching the morons in action and saying nothing to each other, I feel like I am one of the healthiest man in Asia. Poch Suzara

American Evil
The love of money is the root of all evil. If evil were spreading worldwide, we can only blame the Americans. They love not only making money but also love investing in order to make more money. Indeed, since a century ago, America ceased to be a nation. It has developed to be one gigantic corporation. In fact, Americans, especially via the US government will create real enemies for themselves just for the sake of driving the gears of its economy by going to war against other nations as war is big business. There is money to be made in the business of killing people, if not each other. It used to be known a century ago as the evils of Fascism, then the evils of Nazism, then evils of communism, now it is known as the evils of terrorism. Hidden behind the historical scene, however - is the big business of the same and usual evil of American capitalism. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google
Talking to God
We are told that U.S. President George W. Bush of the United States and the Pope of the Catholic Church talks directly to God everyday. We are not told, however, what exactly God says to either of these world famous crackpots. Indeed, when people talk to God, it is called prayer. When God talks to people, it is called "psycho-ceramics." Poch Suzara
Sin
Sin is what we must do first before we can take advantage of the sacrament of forgiveness. Meantime, as Christ died for our sins, let us make His martyrdom more meaningful by the welcome of temptations to commit more sins. Poch Suzara
The Poor Filipino
No doubt, the poor Filipino needs all the break it deserves from the Church and from the
government. But the poor Filipino must also be told to stop fecundating seriously. Do it for fun. Stop producing 1.8 million babies every year for the glory of God in this already very poor only Christian country in Asia. Poch Suzara

Hate and Violence and War
Hate and violence and war are rooted in religion, not in science because in science questioning knowledge is always encouraged and indeed, welcomed. In religion there is only unquestionable revelation as inspired by superstition. If, however, religion would really like to contribute to world peace and goodwill to all men, it must begin to reveal precisely the Revealed Truths. Poch Suzara
Worthless Wisdom
There is no such thing as a worthless wisdom. Anything that’s worthless, to begin with, cannot be wisdom. Unless of course things that are worthless can serve as a horrible example of what wisdom ought not to be. Poch Suzara
Poverty
The worst kind of poverty is the poverty of the mind. A mind is richer not in its simplicity, but in its multiplicity. The Cosmos did not evolved from thought. Thought evolved from the Cosmos. Poch Suzara
Philospher and Priest
The priest has always wallowed in superstition. And thanks to this horror, priests have even managed to drag nations, like the Philippines, down after them enjoying deadly illusion, if not destructive delusions. In the meantime, I love philosophers as I hate the priest. To make his point, a philospher has never killed any priest, whereas the priest, for the glory of God, has killed a great many philosophers.
