Practice

We are told that practice makes perfect. Indeed, it does. Hopefully, however, since we practice so much unhappiness everyday, by the time we are dead, buried and gone, we will not be perfect in the next world enjoying so much perfect unhappiness? Poch Suzara

Our Women

The women of our society need lecture and exposure to new scientific knowledge - the opportunity to interact with it freely as a way to achieve intellectual maturity, self-respect, and human dignity. It is only in this way, our women could help remedy Filipino social, political, and moral insanity. Poch Suzara

Vatican Bank

The Catholic Vatican Bank today is worth more than a trillion dollars in cash deposits. And yet, De La Salle University President is asking for donations to support his Catholic students on scholarship. The One La Salle Scholarship Fund Campaign hopes to raise a billion pesos ($50 million dollars) by the year 2011. La Salle president Brother Luistro himself admits: “The majority of these young people would not even dare enter the halls of our schools because of financial inability.”

Ours, indeed, is the most corrupt religion in all of Asia. Poch Suzara

Christianity

Poverty, squalor, and misery keep Christianity going. The ulterior purpose of the whole Christian system of salvation is to make people ill or troubled. Indeed, to put more decadence locally than to spread more intelligence regionally. Look at the Philippines as a backward and a corrupt nation – the only Christian country in all of Asia since the 16^th century.

The problem is that we Filipinos only want stupid religion. We do not want intelligent science. We are in mortal fear of science as the one sermon of science is that all life eats other life, and that all life will die. We will never accept science until it transforms the Philippines into an earthly paradise. As long as we have poverty, squalor, and misery – we will never abandon Jesus, Mary, and Joseph and the saints and the other members of the holy trinity otherwise more known as Christianity.

And so, “lay not up for yourselves treasures upon the earth,… but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth and rust doth corrupt, and were thieves break through and steal. Matt. 6:20.

Notice the bible does not admit who are the biggest thieves in the world – the men in the priesthood industry! Poch Suzara

The Dead

I envy the dead. The dead can no longer be acquisitive, jealous, combative, erotic, indeed, can no longer be stupid and insane!

One day, like it or not, we too will eventually join the dead. I ardently hope, however, there is no next world, no hereafter managed by a silly divinity in cahoots with a silly deviltry to ruin again precious life for the sake of nothing, but infinite stupidity.

In the meantime, I ask: should we have more faith with the living dead in this world; or, have more faith with the dead living in the next world? Poch Suzara

Jesus

“I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me though he were dead, yet shall he lived. Whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. John 11:25. One of the great tragedies of Western civilization was that there was no lunatic asylum established during the 1st century to commit crackpots like sons of God for psychiatric treatment. Indeed, sons of God who could boast, if not make promises as cheap as those promises made by cheap politicians in our corrupt government. Since Jesus died, then resurrected, and then physically evaporated, more than a hundred billion people already lived and died on this earth. Now where are those people today? Jesus already met with them? Have those dead people already contacted Jesus? In the meantime, how come we never hear from any of our dead loved-ones? In fact, we never even hear from Jesus himself. Otherwise, how come the Revealed Truth has yet to be revealed? Poch Suzara

Biblical Negligence

The bible neglects to mention that an earlier creation was already finished over the next county called China – older than the Old Testament by some 4,000 years. Cain’s wife must have been a Chinese lady who, with her friends and relatives helped Cain build a city. Poch Suzara

Theology

Theology is the study of the unknown for the sake of defending and protecting the existence of anything unknown. In brief, it is more popularly known as a divine mystery. Poch Suzara

Religion and Superstition

The difference between religion and superstition is that there isn't any at all. Both are one and the same animal created in the image of fear and in the likeness of ignorance. Poch Suzara

God Loves the Poor

It is often said that God loves the poor. He made so many of them. If this were true how come God never listens to the prayer of the poor? They are getting poorer. God, however, always listens to the prayer of the rich. They are getting richer!

Then again, if God loves the poor, how come he created a billion of them in China who are not even Christians, but who are now getting rich as a people and acquiring super power as a nation? Poch Suzara

Jesus and Family Values

Jesus had no faith in family values. He didn’t give a hoot that his mother never married his father. In fact, it never bothered Jesus that his parents were not properly married in church. It is incredible to believe that Jesus, the Son of an All-knowing God, knew nothing of the troubles of the human family. How troubles within the family give rise to hate, violence, and war in our world. Crucified on the cross, Jesus should have realized the values of the happy family relationship. He cried out: “My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?”
If I were Jesus crucified on the cross, I should have cried out loud: - “Man, forgive God for He knows not what in hell he is doing!” Poch Suzara

The Bully

The eye of the Lord is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his mercy. Psalms 33:18

Just exactly like the moron who bullied me years ago when I was in grade school at De La Salle University. Like the dummy that I was then, I begged for his mercy too. Until I also, via association, learned to be a bully too. I managed to bully even my teachers with merciless non-stop deep questions. Poch Suzara

Cult

As soon as a cult achieves wealth, power, and glory, it ceases to be a cult. It becomes an established and a prestigious Church. El Shaddai of Mike Velarde and Jesus is Lord Movement in the Philippines of Eddie Villanueva for example are no longer cults, but established churches. The Catholic Church, in its early days during the Roman Empire was a cult. Poch Suzara

Only in the Philippines

Filipino motor vehicle drivers do not care for traffic rules. They are ignorant of such rules to begin with. A red light is merely a suggestion. It does not mean stop. A pedestrian lane exists only in fantasy, never a reality constructed in our city streets.

Speaking about Filipino hospitality, generosity, caring, a smiling race, and always faithful to Mary, the Mother of God – this obviously could only be the conclusion of a college-educated moron. Poch Suzara

Damian Sotto

Damian Sotto was a great and a rare Filipino. He was the famous radio broadcaster in the late 50s and early 60s. He cursed to high heavens the saints, filling the air waves with truths against holy scriptures for the masses to listen. He confronted the Catholic Church head on - to put up or shut up. He provoked the thoughts and asked millions of his radio listeners: How could you believe that a white woman who had blue eyes, a brunette, born and raised under a Jewish culture - be the mother of God in a land that was never converted into Christianity? Sotto also found it laughable that the Father of Jesus never married his Mother Mary. Indeed, Jesus was not a legitimate child. I was so proud when I personally met Damian Sotto at the Erewhon bookstore in Padre Faura street, Erminta, Malate in 1963. I shook his hands with great respect and admiration. I said to him in the vernacular: “If only our teachers in school and professors in college possessed a modicum of intellectual courage of a Damian Sotto we Filipinos need no longer be famous the Sick Man of Asia today.

Papal Encyclical

In the second encyclical of his papacy, Pope Benedict urges Christians to

put their hope for the future in God and not in technology, wealth or

political ideologies.

As an atheist, I say, if God exist and doing his job as a God, we should

have no need for technology, wealth or political ideologies. In fact, at this

point and time, with the guidance from an existing supernatural power

called God, mankind should already be living in peace, inhabiting

creatively and exploring productively the planets comprising the Solar

System.

The Pope also admitted: "Let us put it very simply: man needs God,

otherwise he remains without hope." I entirely agree. But then again, if

God is everywhere existing, why is there a need for religious crackpots to

play God? In the Philippines, he is usually referred to as the cardinal

with his bishops.

My dear Pope Benedict, no doubt, scientific knowledge has brought troubles

into our world. What will remedy the mess, however, is not less, but

precisely more scientific knowledge doing its best for the good of mankind.

God Not Acting like a God

If a God refuses to act like a God in this world here and now, why should such a God act like a real God only in the next world later? What’s the big deal about a FREE WILL, if, in the next world, what we will enjoy is the DEAD WILL of a dead body. The purpose driven life is based on a lot of religious hogwash. After all, the real meaning of life is that it stops. As an atheist, I care about the future of children and their children in this world. I do not give a hoot about the future of stupid souls after a stupid death. Poch Suzara

Sick Babies

More than 90 per cent of the 1.9 million babies born yearly in the Philippines suffer from lack of hygiene, sanitation, and nutrition. The causes of mental retardation via brain damage. It is one reason why we are a nation of morons. The other reason comes from our schools, colleges, and universities. Such places of learning continue to teach such silly nonsense like Jewish God created the Filipino in His own image and likeness.

If you examine seriously the similarity between the Jews and Filipinos, you would clearly see there isn’t any. To begin with, the Jews are the chosen people of God. And what have we Filipinos got anything to do with Jewish history, culture, laws, religion, and tradition?

For Christ’s sake, if we Filipinos were to be guilty of the original sin, the least we should have first is our own original religion. Since the 16^th century, we never had any except vague copies! Poch Suzara

A Reader

A reader wrote explaining why we are the Sick Man of Asia. He concluded that it is because we Filipinos have not accepted the right religion for our country.

I replied: if there were such a business as the right religion, it is the right religion according to whom and to be determined by whom?

In the meantime, why bother to think when Christianity has already determined for us all the answers? What's the use of examining the facts when the Vatican keeps reminding the multitude about the pains of eternal punishment if we ever try to question its doctrines or if we try to seek the truth! And to think that these are the same religious morons who keep bragging that God is everywhere and who gifted man with a free will. Poch Suzara

Coup D’ etat

Coup D’etat in the Philippines is not about social or economic reconstruction. It is not even about government reformation. It is only about more destruction. Indeed, to add more to the daily confusion for the sake of the political illusion as inspired by historical deception experienced by a people enjoying the adequacy of a delusion. Poch Suzara
