God Bless - No thanks

GOD BLESS YOU are words uttered daily by millions of religiously dumbstruck Filipinos everywhere. But if millions of Filipinos were truly blessed by God, how come millions of Filipinos continue to live under misery, filth, and poverty in this poor and backward in this Asia’s only Christian country? In the meantime, in the bible itself, here are examples of words uttered by a kind and loving God in the business of blessing the faithools: “Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces." Malachi 2:3 GOD BLESS YOU TOO! Poch Suzara Google# Facebook# Twitter#

Millions

Nobody knows, not even God, just exactly how many millions of baptized Filipino Catholic live under subhuman conditions in the Philippines. However the case may be, these poverty-stricken Catholic Filipinos existing in the streets, under bridges, huts and hovels are consistently reminded that God loves them; and, that Jesus, the Son of God, will soon return. The biblical promise has been going on daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly for almost 2,000 years now. From this Islas de ladrones y bobos, millions of Catholic Filipinos have already migrated and are now living and well-employed in some 190 foreign countries. This simply means that Filipinos are the failures in their own Catholic countries, but are happy and successful living and working in non-Catholic countries. Poch Suzara

Filipino Destiny

Think of it: our parents could not tell us where we were going after birth. Catholic priests, however, did tell us that after death we are either going to heaven or to hell. No wonder we are the Sick Man of Asia more involved with stupid death than we are sane living a healthy and a wholesome life. In the meantime, there is no such thing as a Christian child; only a child of a Christian parents: free will is a myth invented by Catholic theologians. Poch Suzara

The Tree of Death

Notice how in the Old Testament God shows no interest whatsoever, and even gets bored with the Tree of Knowledge. But in the New Testament, God gets very excited with the Tree of Death? Golly, He was even so thrilled watching his only begotten Son on earth getting nailed to a wooden cross. Indeed, crucified on the cross, Jesus cried out loud: "MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAS THOU FORSAKEN ME?" Poch Suzara

Let Us Hate Together

“Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord.” Isaiah 1:18 – a proposal made by the Lord in the Old Testament. In the New Testament, however, the same Lord proposed: “If any man come to me and hate not his father and mother, wife and children, and yea, his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:26, Matt 10:34-37

Self-Deception

Foremost Philippine historian Teodoro A. Agoncillo summed it all up: “Self-deception is the worst tragedy of the Filipino as a people." Well, I should add, what can be expected of Filipinos who continue to be not the intelligent masters, but the stupid victims of values and beliefs under Christianity and its teachings based upon confusion, illusion, and confusion?

Power

Of all forms of power, the most destructive is the power of madness.

We atheists are not into madness. What we do enjoy, however, is the power of thought. It is sinless. It is crimeless. Indeed, the power of thought is fearless and godless as it is priceless. Poch Suzara

Child Rapist

Corruption in Congress is not consistent. Sometimes, there is an inconsistency. One Congressman, for example, enjoyed a bit of side show,- a sexual degradation away from the daily corruption. He found time to rape a little girl. After which, convicted, in prison, during mass, he would give thanks to the Lord for his sexual
stamina as the most macho member of Congress.

To think that there are sexually-starved, men driven by lust in our sick society who continue to insist that the congressman in question should never have landed in jail. That he got a raw deal sentenced to prison. they argue, while salivating with envy, that the girl he salaciously forced himself into was a child prostitute of 12 years old. As if raping a prostitute is not a crime. As if there is such a criminal
called a child prostitute who could be raped first before services are rendered getting herself invaginated honorably by lust driven moronic sex maniacs. This Congressman could not envisage the girl’s future as a decent mother, or a decent wife, or even as a decent citizen of the Republic of the Philippines.

During her painful experience, I try to imagine that little girl frightened, helpless, crying, and pleading; but her congressman found it more honorable watching with much gusto her abused little vagina bleeding. Poch Suzara

Indeed Mr poch suzara.
interesting thoughts you have.

Biblical Fanatics

The Bible preachers are getting more famous, indeed, getting more successful selling the Word of God. This is only because the believers of the faith are still a frightened lot of satanic, - religiously idiotic, - fanatics.

Take, for example, Brother Eli Soriano of Dating Daan, a religious leader from the boondocks. Daily on TV, he would preach to his viewers bible messages that keep this country perpetually poor and perennially backward. As if there ever was a Filipino who never experienced threats to believe and to have faith in the Word of God! And as if the Word of God has ever stood for human dignity and self-respect for any Filipino living under subhuman conditions in his own Christian country. In the meantime, in this God-forsaken country, we read the bible, if at all, like guilty sinners; hardly do we read the bible like innocent truth-seekers. Poch Suzara

God as a Shining Light

Faithful Christians will at times relate about the experiences of someone dying on the operating table and being “brought back to life.” Some will recount the “near death” experiences where their “soul” was already hovering over, and looking down at their own body… while a celestial being was striving to “guide” them towards a far off “Great Shining Light.”

Isn’t it incredible that the only description available to what God looks like is a “Great Shining Light? And to think during our formative years in grade school, we were already inspired, nay, intimidated to believe that God is existing here, existing there, and existing everywhere watching our every move and jutting down our every sinful thought.

In the meantime, in the Old Testament, Moses queried the burning bush about its identity. In the King James translation the bush replies: “I am that I am.” But the original Hebrew, according to biblical scholars, should actually be translated as “I will be what I will be.”

For my part, I imagine a God identifying himself as either a Great Shining Light, or a Burning Bush, or “I am that I am” while nervously chewing his fingernails. Poch Suzara

In This life

In this life, no matter what, we always find what we consistently look for. Most men and women, however, do not know exactly what they seek in life. True, they seek happiness. Never realizing at the same time that to discover one’s self is far more valuable and lasting than the fulfillment of a momentary desire.

In the meantime, to be ourselves we must complete ourselves. It is, in this way, that we can become the creators of our future and cease to be the slaves of our past. Poch Suzara

Prayers, Not Readers

We are a nation of prayers. We are not, by any standard, a nation of readers. If God, however, does not listen to the prayers of his own Chosen People – the Jews, why should God listen to the prayers of the Filipinos – the Sick Man of Asia? Poch Suzara

Atheism is NOT a Religion

Atheism is NOT a religion. Atheism is unbelief in the existence of the supernatural. We Atheists have no sacred writings that inspires any one to live a life of fear. We have no savior to make any one proud of childish dependency, poverty, ignorance, and misery.

Indeed, we atheists seek enlightenment. We do not kneel down to the threats or the promises of the Old or the New Testament. We would rather pin our hopes and dreams on the creation of a world government.

There is little ethical or anything commonsensical in any of the great religions of the world. Except perhaps for Buddhism, the great religions are criminal by decree. What other institution is there existing in this world that, for the purpose of either winning salvation or resurrection or reincarnation, – the minds and hearts of its respective believers - must first be twisted and distorted and stunted?

Atheism is not a spiritual ineptitude. It is a healthy attitude. Atheism is not a belief, but a lack of childish beliefs. We have no need of faith to have faith in our lack of faith. There is only one kind of atheism in this world. Just as there is only one kind of Multiplication Table – the perfect model of truth.

We atheist love and embrace what atheist Bertrand Russell loved and embraced during most of his 98 years of life: - “The good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge.”

Indeed, we atheist fully appreciate this simple truth: - what the world needs now is not only love but greater knowledge about the nature of love, in all its complexity. Poch Suzara

Broken Marriages

Most marriages do not last because, to begin with, most men need a mother substitute, and most women need a savior. This is not marriage. It is a sacramental joke. In fact, it is a contract for mutual salvation for pain and reciprocal torture especially for the children, if any.

Of course, let’s no ignore the greater evil. Men marry for the sake of what’s menstrual found in between a woman’s legs, and couldn’t care less about what’s functional found in between a woman’s ears. Poch Suzara

Power

The power of the Catholic Church comes from ignorant Catholics. The power of the US government comes from ignorant Americans. Only the ignorant could believe that their power comes from the power of God. Poch Suzara

Truth versus Lies

I used to believe that the search of the truth is life’s most noble adventure. Not anymore. I have changed my mind. I now think the search of lies is a far more creative and productive Especially the lies crank out daily by the media more
referred to as the "freedom of the press." - Poch Suzara

My Own Retraction

It has been predicted that one day, in my death-bed, I will duly retract, on my knees make amends for my errors, go back to God, and plead for divine mercy, and beg for the eternal salvation of my soul!

I say, no way. Me, abandon my faith in heresy? Me, neglect my hopes for a better humanity? Me, surrender my fight for terrestrial sanity? Me, be a disgrace to the human race down here to please divine grace up there? Really, I’d rather kill myself first than be dead devoid of self-respect and human dignity. Poch Suzara

College Graduates

Here are the stark similarities among college educated men and women in the Philippines: first, they all love God; second, they all love Jesus, the Son of God; and third, if they love their country, they are told that it does not matter because there is always a heaven to look forward to as a better world to come after we are all dead and buried. Thus, despite all the hundreds of millions of college educated Filipinos since God knows when, the Philippines remains poor and backward as a nation. Poch Suzara

Evil

If the Son of God Jesus could not remove evil out of Israel, his place of birth, how could Jesus remove evil out of a foreign country like the Philippines? As a matter of historical fact, evil exist in the Philippines not only because of human stupidity, but mainly because of Christianity. Indeed, thanks to Christianity and its teachings, we Filipinos believe that there is a better world to come but only later after we are all well situated buried dead in the cemetery. Poch Suzara

Universal God

A universal God ought to reveal a universal religion. Instead we find Judeo-Christian-Islam religion hating and fighting each other because the revealed truth has not yet been revealed. To which religion of the great religions of the world it will be revealed, if at all, nobody knows! Even the silly theologians haven't the foggiest when or where or how or what or why the Revealed Truth will be revealed! Poch Suzara
