What's the Sexual Difference...

What's the sexual difference between the words: mating, procreating, copulating, impregnating, propagating, fecundating, and fucking? In order to penetrate a woman’s vagina, the man must have an erection. In order to have an erection, however, all the blood in man’s brain must travel down to his sex organ. Thus, a hard-on is blood somewhat solidified. The same thing goes with the woman sexually excited. All the blood in her brain goes down into her sexual organ. So in reality, we are completely brainless when we follow God's command to multiply and replenish the earth. Now consider seriously the physical position that a man and woman must assume in order to have children! It has got to be one of the most ridiculous position figured out by the would-be mothers and would-be fathers of this world. The Pro-lifers are proud to teach God’s commands, especially the 4th, - Honor thy mother and father - even to children struggling to survive under subhuman conditions in the streets of our major cities. As if strength of character, or a high I.Q. is a necessity to get a woman pregnant to be a mother. Honor is not something given or shown. It must be earned. In the meantime, life, indeed, is but a sexually transmitted disease with a mortality rate of 100 per cent. For my part, as an atheist, instead of looking forward to a better life to come after I am dead, I would rather try and leave this world a better place than I found it. Or there would be very little reason for my having lived. Poch Suzara

My Filipino Friend on the Greatness of Dr. Jose Rizal

I give space here for my great Filipino friend - Gil C. Fernandez - on his views about our Jose Rizal. I said it before, I say it again: If only our schools, colleges, and universities taught less about Jesus Christ by teaching more about our Jose Rizal - the Filipinos today would be one of the healthiest people and the Philippines one of the wealthiest of countries in all of Asia today. Poch Suzara The Catholic Church is the greatest beneficiary of Spain colonization of the Philippines. It has gained unimaginable wealth and power, amidst poverty, overpopulation, suffering and misery of the Filipino people. It has introduced the concept of heaven, hell and purgatory to obtain obedience from the people. Confession, to control the community, a classic example was the discovery of the Katipunan, which was leaked out through the confessional. It has spread alleged miracles to fool the people. It exploited the people as proved by the possession of the best lands in many parts of the country; the biggest tract of lands in central Luzon belongs to the Dominicans. The most expensive schools and hospitals belong to this church, and the biggest depositor in the Bank of the Philippine Island is the Archbishop of Manila. And this church, the richest church in the world, has not been paying taxes to a country which is considered one of the poorest countries in the world,-- which is the Philippines. Even after more than a century after the catholic religion was declared not the official religion of the country and the introduction separation of Church and State in the Philippine, the Filipino people still suffer from religious fanaticism. There is still a very important need for the Filipino people to learn even more the life, works and writings of Jose Rizal. As I said before, let the words of Rizal serve as a boost in our morale, not to allow the continuation of this ruthless tyranny, hypocrisy, and the taking advantage of our poor people by this powerful Catholic Church. Let Rizal be the inspiration of our youth, a role model in the struggle for a good life, and to emulate the virtues of this great man, -Dr. Jose Rizal. Written by Gil C. Fernandez, August 2008 Springfield, Illinois Facebook# Twitter# Google#

War

War is always big business for the munition makers. They naturally do everything possible to market the idea of war such as war is the only way to settle international disputes. More often than not, the munition industry will even concoct such disputes by declaring it to be the war for freedom and democracy, or for God. In fact, war is mostly about men killing other men so that the munition makers will earn big profits. Poch Suzara

Indecision

When you do not or cannot make a decision, indecision takes over. When you refuse to think for yourself someone else will think for you. At most time, it is usually referred to as having “faith in God’s Will.” In the meantime, there is no such as thing the right decision or the wrong decision. There is only evil of indecision. We must face the fact that life is a series of decisions. We must learn to never be afraid to make decisions. Poch Suzara

Loneliness

Loneliness has always been an emotionally painful experience. Today, however, paradoxically enough, loneliness is a shared way of life. Even within the family members. In loneliness, they pray together to stay together. Too bad prayers don’t work. More families are derailed in this century than it was during the last century. Poch Suzara

Progress

If Progress only means the accumulation of money, then it becomes a mockery against human decency. In fact, progress should be like a flowering tree with many branches extending to the future. As a product of the power of the intellect, progress is not revolution. It is evolution. Progress should mean a better tomorrow than it was a better yesterday.
Take, for example, progress in education: more and flexible learning should occur outside, rather than inside, crowded school rooms. Poch Suzara

Jonah

“I cried out to the Lord because of my affliction, and He answers me.” Jonah 2:2

It is incredible how the religious bobos would readily believe what Jonah wrote in the bible. If this were true, however, how come millions upon millions of Filipinos who cried out to the same Lord because of their affliction, no Lord answers them? Instead, they ended up dead and buried. Their remains are found in the cemeteries throughout the Philippines. Poch Suzara

American Politics

Whether we are Democrats or Republicans, despite our differences, we all belong in the same sinking American economic boat. All of us, while jockeying for power within it, are all basically committed to preserving the dying “Military-Industrial-Oil-University complex” of the USA.

There is hope, however, in the new presidential candidate of Barack Obama. There is a great chance he could bring real change in America. For one thing, he will transform the White House into a more prestigious Black House.

It is time for us Americans to enjoy real freedom; not the freedom of lies; but the freedom from lies. Especially the freedom from government lies. Poch Suzara

Divine Boredom

Here’s an example of divine boredom as written in the bible: “I form the light and create darkness: I make peace and create evil: I the Lord do these things.” Is. 45:7. Indeed, evil is mostly derived from boredom, especially from divine boredom.
Boringly, bible readers excitingly call it: divine wisdom. Poch Suzara

Organized Religions

Historically, no doubt, organized religions have flourished. But what flourished alongside with organized religions, however, has been the fear of thought, hypocrisy, dishonesty, criminality all rolled into one bundle called “social insanity.”

In the meantime, most men are proud of the religion taught to them during childhood years. It has given conscience that is good; unfortunately, good for nothing. They cry like little boys for peace. As if there is such a thing as peace. They ignore the words of their own Jesus who admitted: “Think not that I have come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.” Matt. 10:34. Poch Suzara

Bread Crumbs

According to the bible, man does not live by bread alone. Is this the reason why Christian charity never distribute loaves of bread to, but would even remove bread crumbs away from, - the Filipino people in this spiritually poor and morally backward country? In the meantime, when Filipinos accept poverty and insanity as the normal Filipino way of life it can only mean malevolence on the one side; and, on the other, - decadence. Poch Suzara

Jose Rizal

Jose Rizal was a man of science. He was not a man of religion. He was publicly executed by religious morons precisely because he exposed the nature of religion in this country as nothing but harmful superstition. Poch Suzara

College Educated

It is precisely those who are selfish, greedy, stupid, and insane – in brief – college educated men and women who make me happy to be a high-school dropout, and who make me proud to be an atheist.

Take a good look at the men and women running our corrupt and rotten government. All of them are college educated. All them believe that God is great, especially in the national business of forgiving the sin of degradation and the crime of corruption! Poch Suzara

Book Learning

Learning by reading books is utterly worthless unless it is used and verified with variegated experiences in life. Only then can it begin to affect our power to think. It is the love of life that educates. Outside academic wall, books have been and still are the only kind of teachers and professors that I could love and respect. All my teachers in school were frightened of divinity, if not terrorized by deviltry. Thus, they only taught me how to have faith in mediocrity, and how to love and respect religious mendacity that's always in cahoots with hypocrisy. Poch Suzara

Morality

Our moral values are based more upon garbage than it should be upon real human values. Morality should solely be about alleviating human suffering, and eliminating human poverty, and indeed, about establishing a healthy and a sane society where we love, not hate, one another for our country’s sake.

Morality is silly if its purpose is to please a mysterious divinity. In brief, morality is a necessity for the good of society established with scientific veracity, not with silly religious mendacity. Poch Suzara

Misology and Theology

Misology – the hatred of reason – is a great evil. Misology is no different from theology – another great evil. Theology hates reason especially as reason promotes the beauty and the power of thought. Poch Suzara

Frank Sinatra

Most people have only thought of Frank Sinatra as just a great and a famous singer. Only the esoteric few knew that he was fearless thinker too. Listen to the words not of someone who kneels, who didn’t have to take the blows, but nevertheless did it his way:

"There are things about organized religion which I resent. Christ is revered as the Prince of Peace, but more blood has been shed in His name than any other figure in history. You show me one step forward in the name of religion and I'll show you a hundred retrogressions. Remember, they were men of God who destroyed the educational treasures at Alexandria, who perpetrated the Inquisition in Spain, who burned the witches at Salem. Over 25,000 organized religions flourish on this planet, but the followers of each think all the others are miserably misguided and probably evil as well." Frank Sinatra, Playboy Magazine, Feb. 1962

If only the other famous singers of our world possessed the intellectual calibre of a Frank Sinatra – ours, indeed, would be a healthy and a peaceful world.

“Frank, wherever you are, I love you. Thank you for having been in our world a great example of a melodious and harmonious grace for the human race.” Poch Suzara

Jose Rizal

Rizal stood by himself alone in his struggles against religious stupidity in our country. A group of religious morons, however, the Spanish friars, got Rizal arrested and jailed to face death by firing squad.

With Rizal dead and gone - out of way, the Spanish friars could then insure that religious stupidity could remain as one of the greatest of blessings from divinity perpetually enjoyed in this only Christian country.

Indeed, take a deep look at us Filipinos in the Philippines in this 21st century. Look how we enjoy with blind faith our love for God up there by hating one another down here! Poch Suzara

Ninoy Aquino

He said: “The Filipino is worth dying for.” Do any of you really believe that Ninoy Aquino now in heaven with God is so proud and eternally happy of the fact that the Filipino proved him right? The Filipino killed him.

In the meantime, I am told my own own friends and relatives and other associates that I should not refer to ourselves as a nation of religious morons. Poch Suzara

The Power of Universal Stupidity

In God’s kingdom is the power of love. In the devil’s kingdom is the power of hate. In man’s kingdom is the power of fear. Combine inextricably the three kingdoms and they all add up to the kingdom of universal stupidity.

To think that for thousands of years science had to painfully struggle against religion for its right to be born, to grow, and to develop and mature. And to think further that in this 21st century, the religious victims here and there are using radio, television, internet, and the mobile phone – all miraculous products of science - to preach the Word of God to fellow religious victims everywhere.
