They would rather visit their dead loved-ones buried in the cemetery; but never, would they ever, even dream of visiting their loved-ones in heaven. In the first place, nobody knows whether their loved-ones made it to heaven; in the second place, nobody knows where heaven is located. Even the theologians do not know; though they know or rather pretend to know a lot about God, and that God is everywhere.
In the meantime, what is immortality? It is the condition of dead people who refuse to believe they are already dead. Poch SuzaraThursday, March 27, 2008
Lively Religious Morons
It is interesting to observe how the religious morons try to prove the existence of God precisely by proving the existence of their own ignorance.
Listen closely to these two morons debating: I do not how God created the turtle’s shell. You do not know how God created the turtle’s shell. We both know, however, that God created the turtle’s shell.
In other words, the existence of unsolved problems proves the existence of God. To worship “God” therefore is to worship ignorance.
Nobility or Stupidity
What is so noble about turning the other cheek, if one knows that each time he does so, he is piling up greater heavenly rewards, while the one who strikes him is earning his stupidity as his rewards in hell? Poch Suzara
Silly Prayer
Crucified on the cross, Jesus dying cried out: “My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?” Now if God would not listen to the prayer of his own begotten Son, why should God listen to the prayer of grown-up men and women petrified like a bunch of little boys and girls feeling also forsaken?

Bible Lessons
As an atheist, I ask: where is the love of reading as a lifetime adventure taught in the Old Testament? Where is the joy of free thought explained in the New Testament? Where is the definition of a decent man and a civilized woman written in the bible? Where is the definition of a happy home with happy children described in the bible? Where in the bible does it explain how to settle international disputes not with hate and war, but with the audacity of reason?
If the bible is a good book, how come, thus far, the bible has only been good for nothing? In fact, where is peace on earth and goodwill to all men, women, and children inspired by, and encouraged with, bible lessons? Poch Suzara

Thoughtless
Those who fear reading provocative material are those who have been frightened since childhood formative years to think not for themselves. They are no better off than those who are un-schooled or functionally illiterate or emotionally bamboozled. Poch Suzara
Atheist and Christian
If you come right down to it, there is little difference between some of the goals of the Christian and the Atheist: both value helping their fellow man.
The Atheist, however, is drawn to this goal out of unselfish love and sympathy – which arise from his sense of human decency and intelligence. For the Atheist, the ultimate goal in life is human happiness by making others also happy.
The Christian, sad to say, is driven to it out of fear for his own eternal welfare. For him, helping his fellow man is not an end in itself, but only a means of saving himself from damnation.
The Atheist realizes that he could be mistaken about what his best for his fellow man; so he is willing to change his mind. He welcomes criticisms.
The Christian cannot admit that his ideas of right and wrong might be mistaken, because to doubt would, again, imperil his immortal soul.
Thus, highly-indoctrinated, the Christian is a blind, senseless, panic-stricken victim who must keep running until he drops. He has nothing useful going for him in this world except blind faith in lies, deceit, fraud, and deception especially about the next life in the better world to come after death. Poch Suzara

Jose Rizal
If Christianity had not dragged Jose Rizal down and get him executed for promoting the power of science and reason, the Philippines today would be the most developed and the most advanced country in Asia today. Especially in the race to achieve the higher standard of thought as a free people and the higher standard of independence as a free nation.
Indeed, because of the tragic fate of great thinkers like our Jose, Rizal, the freedom of thought and the power of reason have never played seminal roles within our system of education. It is, in this way, we Filipinos in this 21st century are only more destructive and more at home with political and social decadence.
As disciples, followers and admirers of Jose Rizal, we Filipinos could have been more creative and familiar with the power of science and its devotion to the truth under the beauty of human intelligence.
Of course there is this cock and bull, theological hogwash invented by the shallow-minded Jesuit friars claiming in effect that before he was put to death, Rizal retracted. A fascinating fairy tale not worth elaborating for matured and intelligent readers on this page. Poch Suzara
More On Rizal
Jose Rizal would never write such scientific nonsense as published in “Rizal’s Life: Works and Writings: Their impact on our national legacy written by Capino, Gonzalez, and Pineda:
“It is our duty to follow the arid but peaceful and productive paths of science which lead to progress and thence to the unity desired and asked by Jesus Christ on the night of his sorrow.” Page 82
“It is our duty to follow the arid but peaceful and productive paths of science which lead to progress and thence to the unity desired and asked by Jesus Christ on the night of his sorrow.” Page 82
It is evident that a man with the caliber of scientific outlook on life cannot let himself be submissive by biblical texts or by teachings of the Catholic friars who hated him. I am suggesting Rizal never wrote those words referring to Jesus Christ. Religious morons added those words to Rizal’s writings to make him look like he never abandoned his faith that kills.

It Is Hard
It is hard to be an atheist if you were not an avid reader; especially if you have not thoroughly and properly read the bible. Indeed, it is hard to meet educated atheists who are not conversant with bible contradictions, inconsistencies, immoralities, obscenities, absurdities, atrocities, mendacities, and indeed, monstrosities.
Think of the claim that the bible was written by inspired authors of God. If this were so, how come the millions of bible readers have not been as equally inspired to read and to discover the inexcusable errors written in the bible? Poch Suzara
Science
Astronomy explains how we live on a speck of debris from a cosmic explosion billions of years ago.
Geology explains how brief is our existence on this earth both as individuals and as a species.
Biology explains how through millions of years, we humans evolved and are still evolving from lower into higher forms of life.
The science of astronomy, geology, and biology are more than enough for me to justify my stand on atheism as something more revealing, vigorous and courageous. Poch Suzara
War on Poverty
In the never-ending war against poverty, how come poverty is always winning? How come the government forces combined with the forces of the church continue to dismally fail to defeat poverty permanently out of our sick society?
In the meantime, poverty is the symptom: Christianity is the disease. Filipinos are not Christians because they are poor, they are poor because they are Christians. The war against poverty therefore should first be a war against the lies and deception behind the corrupt commercial enterprise known Christianity. Poch Suzara
The Excommunication Business
The church officials cannot afford to excommunicate government officials because they are all mutually involved together in the lucrative business of corruption in the Philippines.
Look how church officials are enjoying tax exempt status from the State. Look how the government officials are enjoying the forgiveness of sin and crime from God and His church! Poch Suzara
Most Women
Most women love mediocrity in men. Most men, just so to score sooner to what’s in between a woman’s leg, would readily manifest that their mediocrity is even inspired by a divinity. Poch Suzara
Politics and Religion in the Philippines
I hate Religion and its illusions. I hate politics and its delusions. Far more severe, I hate blind faith as it supports both religion and politics in cahoots together in the corrupt business of sin and crime. The Philippines is one example of what stupid religion combined with stupid politics can accomplish together. Especially to keep a whole nation poor, backward, frightened, and insane, - with lies, deceit, fraud, corruption and deception. Poch Suzara Twitter# Google#
One Day
One day, whether I like it or not, nature will kill me. For me, however, to be on my bended knees listening to religious morons about asking the Lord for the forgiveness of my stupid sins before I die, I say, no way. I’d rather kill myself first. Phooey on Thy Kingdom Come. Poch Suzara
The poor in Spirit
For all of its concern about the “poor in spirit” in the Philippines, Christianity does its best not only to spread spiritual poverty daily, insure moral bankruptcy weekly, support political stupidity monthly, but also, indeed, to promote social insanity yearly. And in blind faith, since the 16th century, we naturally cannot see just exactly how blessed we all are in this God-forsaken Philippines already in the 21st century. Poch Suzara
World's Poorest People
We Filipinos are among the poorest people in this world. We possess no wealth of knowledge of the nature of life or death. We possess no wealth of knowledge of the hereafter. We possess no wealth of knowledge of the nature of the existence of God. What’s more ticklish about this poverty situation, however, is that we possess no wealth of knowledge of the nature of souls. We possess no wealth of knowledge of the nature of heaven or even where it is located; and we possess no wealth of knowledge of the nature of God’s enemy - Satan. But we are told that with faith in God – we shall all be saved after death. Otherwise, we will be punished eternally in hell, - again a place where even the most brilliant of Filipino theologians have no idea whatsoever as to where exactly hell is located out there whether it is outside or inside the universe. As if there is a thing that could exist outside the universe! Poch Suzara
Incredibly Stupid
It is not incredible to see why poor people need money. What’s incredibly stupid, however, is to see people already rich still needing more money. The rich morons naturally cannot see that there is such a thing as poverty of the worst kind – the poverty of the mind. I have met a few of these rich morons who need more money to support their drug-addict sons and grandsons, if not alcoholic daughters and grand-daughters.
Of course I also know of this poorly paid college professor. He lives off his rich wife, but he needs more money to fuck around with other women just as dumbstruck as his wife. Poch Suzara
The Rich and Famous
In countries that enjoy social or political decadence they have individuals known as the rich and the famous. We too have those in the Philippines. They are the rich and famous individuals known as government officials, corrupt businessmen, and Catholic Church officials known as the Bishops and Cardinals. Not to mention, another rich and famous billionaire – Brother Mike Velarde of El Shaddai. Millions of Filipinos have not stopped buying what Brother Mike Velarde has been selling: - Jesus – the Son of God – the Savior of Filipinos. Poch Suzara
