The Creator is Sex
Sex created me as much as sex created my children as my children created my grandchildren with sex. Sex created my parents and grandparents. Sex is the creator of all life on this earth. Of course, just like everyone else, I believe in sex. After all, no one could have been born without it. What I do not believe, however, is irresponsible sex. I do not preach: go forth and multiply and replenish the earth. That’s already been accomplished centuries ago. The time of humans breeding like animals is over. Instead, we should be breeding more science that prepares us to live the good and creative life rather than be breeding more stupid religion that prepares us only for stupid death. Poch Suzara
God Loves Me
The worst kind of poverty is the poverty of mind. The poorest, indeed, are those who proudly claim that nobody loves them except God. These poverty-stricken people would rather wait for the second coming of a foreigner – a Jewish Lord named Jesus to remedy the ills of our sick society rather than participate in the growth and development of our own country. Poch Suzara
The Dark Ages
There was a time when religion ruled the world. Where every man, woman, and child believed and had faith God. Historians refer to it as the Dark Ages. The Philippines is still pretty much populated by faith-soaked Christians in the majority and by the faith-soaked Muslims in the minority. Nevertheless, in the modern world today, Filipinos still live in the Dark Ages. Filipinos all love what is supernatural up there by hating what is natural down here.
In the meantime, we are all born ignorant, not stupid. We are made stupid by education. Consider college educated men and women including college teachers and professors in this country. At the expense of love of country and love of fellow-citizens, we would rather pray daily to God for the silly salvation of our silly souls. As if the soul, supposedly already immortal, needs saving.
Personally, I don’t know what’s the big deal about the endless conflict between God and the devil to win over the silly souls of men. I don’t need it. I don’t want it. God can have it or the devil can have it. Poch Suzara

War and Business
Business is the husband of war as war is the wife of business. It is a profitable illicit relationship; especially in the United States of America where business and war pretty much determine the ups and downs of its economy. The more wars there are anywhere in the world, rich American industrialists become richer, especially as they are the real owners of the US government.
In the meantime, suicide terrorists have attacked America not because of its freedom from religion, but freedom of religion. Such freedoms have only generated greed, hate, envy, and stupidity as the basis of the American way of life.
Abraham Lincoln was right on target. He said: "America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter, and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves." Poch Suzara

National Election
National election in the Philippines is not about candidates, but about a vote-buying contest among the cheaters who are even willing to murder each other for the sake of winning. After the votes have been secretly counted and the dead buried, the winners are usually the ones who brag to high heavens that national elections in the Philippines have always been clean and honest and democratic and historically peaceful. In the meantime, the nation, instead of moving forward with new and fresh ideas, it only moves backward with old and obsolete ideas. Poch Suzara
Classmates
It is sad to see former La Salle classmates happy and comfortable watching, if not themselves playing, lively sports activity of the day -- it is all that they ask. The distinction between right and wrong, of truth and falsehood, of good and evil frightens timid minds and petty hearts – I suppose the end-product of a college education in the Philippines. Poch Suzara
Love and Sex
A man gives love in order to get sex. A woman gives sex in order to get love. In the end, however, both are in trouble especially when neither knows what the either is doing.
Love breeds sex as sex breeds unwanted babies – the root cause of all the hate and wars throughout our troubled world at large. Indeed, arriving into this world as a product of parental fecundation is an absurdity to begin with. In my own estimation more than 99 per cent of babies born in this world are products of pure sex and therefore a matter of biological accident. In the meantime, consider what determines whether a child is born a girl or a boy, but also what determines who the child’s parents would be? Please leave the holy spirit out of the equation. After all, the holy spirit is neither holy nor a spirit. Really, how can anyone describe a spirit, invisibly holy or, as the case may be, unholy visibly? Poch Suzara

Christianity Against Rizal
There exist no difference between the fault of Filipino historians and the fault of the Rizal Knights. Neither would defend Rizal's stature as a thinker who was executed by the same enemy we Filipinos still refuse to acknowledge as our same enemy today. It’s popularly known as Christianity - the greatest destroyer of the Filipino minds and hearts down here for the love of a divinity up there.
Consider in this 21st century we Filipinos still pray to God to give us this day our daily bread and to lead us not into temptation. Indeed, Christian teachings that have not ceased to make us feel guilty of the original sin. As if there ever were a Filipino born in the Philippines who originated anything in this world to begin with. In the meantime, instead of intellectual stimulation via emulation, we would rather be busy with childish argumentation, if not circumlocution.
In the final analysis, Rizal’s precious messages for the Philippines are still stuck under suspended animation while we Filipinos continue to have faith in our social stagnation by way of political and religious degradation. Poch Suzara
The Death of Rizal
Jose Rizal was put to death not because his way of life was inimical to the welfare of the Filipino people. On the contrary, Jose Rizal was put to death because his way of life was inimical to the welfare of Christianity in the Philippines.
After Rizal's death, how many more Filipinos in the likes of a Rizal have we heard of struggling in this God-forsaken country to help us stand up with self-respect as a people and to help us develop with dignity as a nation? None whatsoever except only those who childishly call themselves "Knights of Rizal" or who foolishly call themselves "Rizalists."
For my part, ever since I was expelled out of high school in a catholic university – I slowly began to entertain the thought that Jose Rizal must have been a greater man born and executed in the Philippines some one hundred years ago than was a Jewish fellow known as Jesus Christ born and executed on a stick in a foreign country some two thousand years ago.

Mediocrity
Mediocrity recognizes nothing higher than itself; in fact, mediocrity, like water, seeks its own level.
The opposite is talent: it instantly recognizes genius. In the Philippines, however, mediocrity is synonymous to “Knights of Rizal.” Even up to this 21st century, Rizal admirers still have no idea whatsoever as to who precisely authorized his death by execution in public during the late 19th century. There is still much silly illusion, much deadly confusion, much infantile delusion about the life and times of this great Filipino free thinker. The thinker who authored two great books as a wake up call to all Filipinos. In the meantime, we Filipinos are in desperate need for another Jose Rizal, even by way of a Rizal junior to challenge the silly communion of saintly criminals still pretty much well-entrenched in our corrupt government, in the corrupt churches, and indeed, in the corrupt schools, corrupt colleges, and corrupt universities in the Philippines today.

Jose Rizal and the Holy Trinity
Rizal was executed by religious crackpots in authority over life and death in his century. The same religious crackpots in control of minds and hearts of most Filipinos today in this century. Indeed, there was a time when the world was ruled by religion. Historians refer to it as the Dark Ages. Filipinos today still live in the dark ages. The Philippines is still ruled by religion.
Had Rizal lived on as a serious reader, the writings of Robert Ingersoll would have made him realized that his belief in the holy trinity was based on nothing but holy baloney. Indeed, in reading the writings of Robert G. Ingersoll, any high school dropout gifted with a little I.Q. could rightly conclude that sacred gimcrackery pretty much characterized the formation of Christianity. Poch Suzara
THE HOLY TRINITY
by:
Robert G. Ingersoll
1833 – 1899
Christ, according to the faith, is the second person of the Trinity, the Father being the first, and the Holy Ghost the third. Each of these three persons is God. Christ is his own father and his own son. The Holy Ghost is neither father nor son, but both. The son was begotten by the father, but existed before he was begotten – just the same before as after.
Christ is just as old as his father, and the father is just as young as his son. The Holy Ghost proceeded, from the Father and Son, but was equal to the Father and Son before he proceeded, that is say, before he existed, but he is of the same age as the other two.
So it is declared that the Father is God and the son is God, and Holy Ghost God and that these three Gods make one God.
According to the celestial multiplication table once one is three, and three times one is one, and according to heavenly subtraction if we take two from three, three are left. The addition is equally peculiar, if we add two to one we have but one. Each is equal to himself as the other two. Nothing ever was, nothing can ever be more perfectly idiotic and absurd than the dogma of the Trinity.

Our Ancestors
“Two billion years ago our ancestors were microbes; a half-billion years ago, fish; a hundred million years ago, something like mice; ten million years ago, arboreal apes; and a million years ago, proto-humans puzzling out the taming of fire. Our evolutionary lineage is marked by change. In our time, the pace is quickening.” Carl Sagan
Hopefully, in time, we will have no more human stupidity based upon sick religiosity; instead, we will have more sense of humanity based upon a healthy philosophy. Poch Suzara
The Poorest People
The poorest people in the world are the Filipinos. In this day and age, we still believe those silly foreigners who taught us to love and to fear their God Jesus who was not even born in the Philippines, but born supposedly in a foreign land that never got to be a Christian, but only a Jewish State.
No doubt, we need radical reforms to reform our sick society. However, for as long there is always available from God Jesus the forgiveness of sin and the forgiveness of crime, our rotten society will forever remain rotten under the blessings of Christianity of no matter what denomination. Consider the rich sinners and the wealthy criminals comprising the powers-that-be: they are always enjoying the forgiveness of sin and crime from the holy spirit.
For my part, I thanked the holy spirit that I am a heretic daily, an infidel weekly, a freethinker monthly, and indeed, an atheist yearly. Poch Suzara

A Guru
A guru from India told me that what my mind can conceive, I can, in life, achieve. But in high-school at De La Salle University, I conceived more questions than my teachers could answer. Well, for asking far too many questions in class, what I achieved was neither wisdom nor knowledge, but getting expelled out high school. And to think that in life questions are always far more important than answers because the answers, in time, become obsolete. Poch Suzara
Thought Patterns
Most thought patterns in humans are established before the age of ten. The idea of God is not innate. In most cases the idea of God is planted in the minds of children before the age of ten when their minds are as yet quite malleable and therefore distortable, if not twistable. Most men and women still have the mind of little children. The ability to conceive new and fresh ideas becomes next to impossible. Such is the power of insane religiosity as inspired by human stupidity. Poch Suzara
Spiritually Matured Person
In his Road Less Travelled, M. Scot Peck wrote: “… the learning of something new requires a giving up of the old self and a death of outworn knowledge. To develop a broader vision we must be willing to forsake, to kill, our narrower vision. In the short run it is more comfortable not to do this – to stay where we are, to keep using the same microcosmic map, to avoid suffering the death of cherished notions. The road to spiritual growth, however, lies in the opposite direction. We begin by distrusting what we already believe, by actively seeking the threatening and the unfamiliar, by deliberately challenging the validity of what we have previously been taught and hold dear. The path to holiness lies through questioning everything.”
Now I question the admirers of our chief hero Jose Rizal. They claim that Rizal was a spiritually matured person, not a repentant believer. In the Ultimo Adios poem, however, written before his death by musketry in public, he wrote in the 13th stanza:
“I go where there are no slaves, oppressors, executioners. Where Faith does not kill, where he who reigns is God.”
How spiritually matured was Rizal since he believed in the hereafter where he who reigns is God? I ask: if there is such a thing as a hereafter, how come there isn’t any herebefore? Nay more! If, in next world, faith does not kill, then wouldn’t it make more sense if we were all born not in this world, but in that world and certainly not created in the image and likeness of God?

Original Sin
How can we be so silly as to feel shame or guilty of the original sin since we never originated anything in this world to begin with? Poch Suzara
The Lord's Prayer
The prayer “Our Father, who art in heaven,” admits that God is not everywhere. In fact, it only proves that God is omni-present up there in heaven; but only and always omni-absent down here earth. Poch Suzara
What's The Difference
What is the difference between the Coliseum in Rome built as a monument to human depravity as inspired by deviltry and the Manila Cathedral built as a monument to human stupidity as inspired by divinity? Activities inside the Roman Coliseum were about superstitious sadism. Activities inside the Manila Cathedral were superstitious supernaturalism. How do such evils differ? Poch Suzara
Solution to Philippine Problem
First make the problem smaller, not bigger. After all, it is vain to do with more what could be done with fewer. In this way, the problem becomes smaller and manageable and in turn becomes the real prize of progress. With problems keeping the Philippines poor and backward, I would suggest breaking it up into three smaller independent States: The Republic of Mindanao, the Republic of Visayas, and the Republic of Luzon. All three new States to be managed not by politicians, theologians, or magicians, but by public administrators and scientists. Poor Filipinos hoping to migrate to foreign countries to enjoy a higher standard of living need not fall in line devoid of self-respect and dignity like they do at the US Embassy every day of the year. They should only emigrate to independent States growing economically and developing scientifically right here in the next door neighbor. Poch Suzara
