Treasures

Treasures in heaven are laid up as treasures on earth are laid down. Phil Star, Dec. 13,2007

Robert Ingersoll was more truthful. He wrote: “The church has always been willing to swap off treasures in heaven for cash down.”

One of the richest, if not the most solid bank existing in the world today is the Vatican bank. Hello!

God’s Forgiveness

To enjoy the future, accept God’s forgiveness for the past. Phil Star Dec. 11/2007

Oh God, again, that is not the issue. Forget that meaningless business of forgiving. Why not try, instead, something more meaningful: - get involved with us Filipinos, do a little evolving yourself, as a manifestation of your divine grace!

After all, yours is the power, kingdom, and the glory as written in the Old and in the New Testament!

We Filipinos have nothing except a corrupt and an inefficient government as guaranteed by a corrupt Constitution. Poch Suzara

Faith in the Gospel

Let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ. . . . stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel. Philippians 1:27. Phil Star January 8/2008.

What ever happened to the conduct worthy of common human decency under social and political sanity for the good of our country?

In the meantime, a man of faith is like a silly drunkard who clings to a lamppost for support, not illumination. Poch Suzara

We are the Sick Victims

We still carry on as the sick victims rather than we should already be the healthy masters of religion. One would think that after all this time, our schools, colleges, and universities should already know what to do in order to remedy the historical horror. Unfortunately, even our teachers in school and professors in universities have no idea as to why, in this already 21st century, we Filipinos know only how to pray to God for forgiveness of our sins and crimes as we still know not whatever else to do.

Science and Religion

“Almost all of the progress in the world from the earliest times is attributable to science and the scientific temper.” Bertrand Russell. Well, almost all of the troubles that’s been keeping the Filipino poor as a people and the Philippines backward as a nation - have been due to religion and the infantile religious temper. Ask Fr. James Reuter. He is an expert on this evil. He is also the famous American priest in the Philippines who claims to save Filipino souls for God in heaven. In the meantime, George B. Shaw said it: "At present, there is not a single credible religion established in the world." Well, for my part, when I am ask, if science and religion can merge one day, I say yes, they can. But religion must first reconcile with other stupid religions before science can seriously entertain the merger. Poch suzara

Life or Death

Facing death with confidence comes from trusting Christ. Phil Star Jan 10,2008

Well, I ask: what about facing life with a sense of benevolence that comes from human intelligence?

In the meantime, it is truly incredible how we are all subject to birth, life, growth, death, and decay; except God and the devil - his partner in crime. Both supernatural beings exist happily and endlessly together. To think God never even gifted the devil with a Free Will. Poch Suzara

The Poorest People

Among the rich are truly the poor among the poorest of idiots. It is they who have neither the ability nor the intellectual capacity to grasp in any way whatsoever that the worst kind of poverty is the poverty of the mind and heart. Indeed, these poor idiots would rather continue to be the stupid followers rather than try to be the intelligent leaders of our country. To think a great many of them, like our politicians in government, the theologians in church, thieves in corporations, teachers in school, professors in college - are all college educated in the Philippines. Poch Suzara

The Troubles in our World

The troubles in our world begins with the troubles in the human family. Indeed, to begin with, children are the products of sex; not love. We are not the masters of the biological truth, but the victims of theological lies. Life is not a creation of a fictitious creator. As a matter of truth, life is a sexually-transmitted disease with the mortality rate of 100 per percent. Listen, however, to sweet Jesus - the Savior of the world, declaring in the bible: "If any man come to me and hate not his father, and mother, and wife and children, and brethren, yea and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple." Luke 14:26 When I tell my friends and relatives to struggle with me against with the basic troubles of our troubled world, they react by only telling me that they are too busy and that there is nothing we can do anything about it anyway. That no one can remedy the situation. That the struggle for human decency is a waste of time and energy. That we can only try to remedy the horrors of those who are poor and homeless; never, however, can we ever alleviate the horrors of those who are the mindless and the heartless. I insist however: this is our world. This is the world of our children we are dealing with. If we do not speak for this world, our world, who will? I, myself, alone, may not solve the problems of our world. The least I could do, however, is to exclude myself away from among the billions of religious saps and jerks who keep our world always in trouble. Indeed, I should stop having faith in a divine grace that has, in fact, been doing nothing except to perpetually be a disgrace against the human race. For as long as we waste time and energy believing, loving, venerating, and having faith in lies and deceptions, we shall never solve the problems of our troubled world. We shall only need a Savior. But Bertrand Russell had a more creative alternative to solve the evil: He wrote: "What the world needs now is not only love, but also the greater knowledge of the nature of love, in all its complexity." Indeed, "the good life one inspired by love and guided by knowledge." Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Life in America

Life in America means work, work, work to pay your bills, bills, bills. The whole idea is to become rich and famous. Each and every year, however, only about 100 in 1,000,000 American workers make it to the top. The rest continue to work, work, and work. And to pay bills, pay bills, and pay bills for the rest of their lives.

In the meantime, among the rich and famous and the powerful in America are the members of Congress. They do not work, work, and work for the American people; in fact, we the American people work, work, and work to help pay for their bills, bills, and bills. Poch Suzara

The Prince of Darkness

Of course it is not fair to blame God for hiding all the time. Always shying away from the trials and tribulations of man on this earth. After all, in heaven, God enjoys his title role the Prince of Darkness. Poch Suzara

Anger

Anger should be one of the greatest of virtues. Notice, however, in our system of education, we were never taught to get angry; especially at stupid religion that keeps the Filipino sick as a people and that keeps the Philippines sick as a nation. Poch Suzara

To Think

To think that Jesus was a Jewish Son of God, not a Filipino Son of God. And to think further that in this 21^st century, Jesus remains as a minor character in the Jewish history of customs and tradition. Poch Suzara

Asian Government Officials

The government officials of other Asian countries do not pray to God. Only the officials of the Philippine government do so daily. And yet, look at the way our government officials are inspired to keep the Filipino people believing that there is a better world to come, but only after we are all dead and buried.

In the meantime, since decades ago, Filipino workers have had better opportunities to enjoy a higher standard of living and thinking working in other non-Christian Asian countries. Poch Suzara

In This Catholic Country

In this Catholic country of sin, crime, poverty, filth, and ill-gotten wealth, there is always something to be grateful for. As for me, I am grateful to the Son of God Jesus that I am no longer a Catholic. I am also grateful that Jesus was not born, raised, and educated as a Catholic in Israel – the land of His birth. Poch Suzara

The Free Bully

God already killed my loved ones – those I happily served and loved; and those who happily served me and loved me. God already killed my brother and dad, my lolos and lolas, my in-laws, most of my uncles and aunties; already a few among my nieces and nephews, cousins; and already killed indeed great friends who rescued me away from religious horrors. Soon God will kill my 95 year old mom, and will have me put to death too any day now. And for all these horrors, I am suppose to love, worship, and adore God? I say: To hell with your free will God! You are nothing but a free bully. Poch Suzara

Judgment Day

During Judgment Day facing God almighty, this will be the nature of my defense: “God, you gifted me with 70 years of free will, but why did you also gifted the devil – your real enemy – not only free will but worst, you gave him centuries of free existence to freely do more evil than I could be free to imagine? Poch Suzara

Go ye Teach all Nations

And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying: All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Matt. 28: 18-20

In the last judgment, how would Jesus and his disciples explain to God their sad failure in converting Israel - the land of their own birth from the Jewish religious land into Christianity in general, or into Catholicism in particular? Poch Suzara

Jesus – Not a Reader

Jesus warned: “If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:26

Too bad Jesus never read the Old Testament especially where it warns: “He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind.” Proverbs 11:29 Poch Suzara

Evolution versus Revelation

The universe in its immensity, and life in general in its complexity require not an intelligent designer, but simply - an explanation. Happily, the science of evolution has been a more reliable explanation as compared to the religion of revelation. Indeed, in science, there is always that beauty of simplicity. In religion, there is only that putridity behind the perplexity of a mystery for love of a divinity in cahoots with deviltry out there while we are suppose to enjoy human stupidity down here. Poch Suzara

Fear God

Those who fear God need not fear the world. Phil Star Dec. 31, 2007.

It is truly incredible. Imagine an all-powerful God, a Supernatural Being, the creator of the billions of stars and planets out there. He enjoys the situation where He is being feared by no less than silly human beings struggling to survive on this speck of dust lost in the immensity of space and time known as the planet Earth.
