Most People

Most people love to believe in the fantasy of life after death. These are the same people who hate the reality of life before death. In this Christian country in Asia, we do not only look forward to a better life to come after death in the next world, but right after birth, we also look forward to a better life to come by migrating to earn of living in the next country to come.

Mother Nature

Each time a killer quake kills thousands of people, we do not blame God; instead, we blame Mother Nature. But if God were not that interested to remedy the mess from Mother Nature, the least that He could do is to inspire His Saints to take over to clean up the mess. But where are the saints? Why are they like God – hiding all the time away from the troubles of our world which is also their world? Maybe it’s true: this is not their world so why bother. Poch Suzara

Superstition

Superstition is notorious in its various forms. The most notorious form is called “Religion.” Fortunately, there are many religions; unfortunately, however, each religion is based upon revealed truths that are sacred as long as they remain unrevealed. Poch suzara

Why Something Rather Than Nothing

Why something rather than nothing? A better question to ask is: If God were a spirit, why is there only the material world which is something,and no spiritual world which is the nothing? Poch Suzara

The Atheistic God

God himself is an atheist. He does not believe in the existence of other Gods. Consider His first commandment: “Thou shall have no other Gods before me.” Really, where did those other Gods come from? Which God created those other Gods? Poch Suzara

The Limitation of Science

Science cannot give an answer to the question: “Why should we be good?” it is beyond the realm of science to deal with ethics. Only religion has the answer to that question. In fact, religion teaches man to be good; unfortunately, how to be good for nothing. Poch Suzara

Who or What Creator

Modern science, which is just about 400 years old, has examined and continues to examine the nature of creation. Science, however, cannot examine the creator and for a very simple reason: there isn’t any. Even religion, which is already thousands of years old – still has no clear idea as to who or what the creator is suppose to be. Is the creator a He? A She? Or just an It? Even the most brilliant of theologians do not know what an “All-Knowing” creator knows. Poch Suzara

Science is Honest

Science is honest enough to admit what it does not know. It proceeds with reason and observation. Religion is dishonest. It pretends to know what it does not know. Its mission has only to do with eternal salvation. For my part, I have no taste for rewards after my death. Instead, I love science. It has a much greater mission: to free mankind from superstition in all its forms, especially in the form of religion still stuck in the quagmire of its own concocted revelation. Poch Suzara

Nothing Versus Something

Science would never have understood the power of nature were it not for the power of reason and observation. Indeed, owing to the power of reason, science has been able to successfully observe the difference between what is natural, which is something, from what is supernatural, which is nothing.

God Blames Man

God blames man for his fault; and in order to make the situation even more faulty, God decided to become a man. And to think that God had the bright idea of transforming himself into a Jew. The divine mission obviously failed in spite of the biblical declaration that the Jews are Chosen People of God. Poch Suzara

It's all a Game

Little boys and girls enjoy playing the game called “HIDE AND SEEK.” Mindless men and heartless women love to play the same game too. They call it “SEEK AND CAN FIND GOD.” Happily, most of these men and women now silently agree that God could no longer be found inside a Church or inside a Cathedral or inside a temple or even inside a synagogue. In fact, if God were already existing here, there, and everywhere, why waste seeking Him anywhere? Poch Suzara

The Infidel Jesus

The bible proves Jesus himself was an infidel. Tim 5:8 states clearly: “But if any of you provide not for his own, and especially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.” Well, in the same bible, Jesus admonished: “Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself.” Matt. 6:34.

The Pope and God and World Peace

As a Catholic boy then I was most proud of the Pope who prayed daily to God for world peace. Today, an old man, I am not only ashamed of the Pope, I am even more ashamed of God. There is still no peace on earth or even goodwill to all men. Meantime, this week, civilized humanity from civilized countries have sent billions of dollars worth of food, clothing, and medicine to help the hundreds of thousands of poor victims who survived the Tsunami Disaster in South Asia recently. But the Pope offered only mass and prayer for the victims. No wonder even priests and nuns are walking out disgusted with the Catholic hierarchy. In the meantime, I ask: Is it possible that there is no peace on earth because so many billions of people embrace conflicting religious beliefs that have more to do with hate this world and to look forward only to a better life to come after death in the next worth? Poch Suzara

The Failure of prayer

“The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” James 5:16. The same bible, however, also admits: “There is none righteous, no, not one.” Rom. 3:10. And to think that we Filipinos have not ceased praying to God to “give us this day our daily bread and to lead us not into temptation.” Poch Suzara

Only God Can Make a Tree

“A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.” Matt. 7:18. And to think that only God can make a tree.

Disciples's Descendants

“And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness.” Matt 10:1. I pity, indeed, those disciples gifted with power to heal all manner of diseases failed miserably to cure the sick maniacs who, over nothing, crucified Christ on the cross? But where on earth today are the descendants of those disciples? How come they all disappeared? Perhaps, they are the “faith-healers” in the Philippines today claiming to heal all manner of diseases?

The Peacemakers

“Blessed are the peacemakers.” Matt. 5:9. Again, “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you. John 14:27. A graceful message, indeed, from a Savior who also gracefully admitted: “I came not to send peace, but a sword, and to set families against themselves.” Matt. 10:34-37. And who also peacefully announced: “But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.” Luke 19:27. And who also gracefully warned: “…he that hath no sword, let him sell his garments, and buy one.” Luke 22:36. Indeed, piss on you too! Poch Suzara

Every Child

Every child born in this world is an atheist, and, if he grows up with faith, his faith differs with the country in which he may happen to be born, or the people amongst whom he may happen to be indoctrinated. His faith therefore is the result of local teachings. Thus, throughout the world the religion of people is determined, by and large, by geographical accident of birth. In the Philippines, the Filipinos are Christians; in Japan, Shintoists; in China, Buddhists or Confucians; in Italy, Catholics; in India, Brahmans; in Indonesia, Muslims; in America, Baptists or Methodists or Lutherans, etc. What these people were taught during infancy they continue to believe up to senility; and they die in the faith in which they have lived. For my part, as I have learned to think for myself, I thank “the gods” I was born an atheist. I am not only free of religion; I am free from religion. Poch Suzara

Faith Versus Reason

To have faith in reason is a needless waste of energy. Reason can easily explain the nature of faith. Faith, however, can never explain the nature of reason. Meanwhile, Reason is not just one tool inside a Tool Box. Reason is the whole Tool Box itself. For my part, I am in love with reason. It has led me to atheism as religion is a malicious authority, and the God of the priesthood industry is a ferocious absurdity. Poch Suzara

Survivors

There are those who thank God for having survived a natural calamity. Those, however, who die from the flood and landslide have no one to thank except begin to enjoy immortality: – the condition of those already dead but who refuse to believe that they are already dead. Poch Suzara
