The Faitheists

The Faitheists of our poor, sick, and insane society have not ceased chastising me as to why am I angry at God? I also have not ceased asking them which God am I suppose to be angry at? Poch Suzara

The Death of the Human Race

Religion is ignorance. Ignorance is religion. Indeed, religion supports ignorance and ignorance supports religion. In either case, no matter what happens, both are always in cahoots together defending and protecting each for the sake of the other; at a price too dear to pay: the eventual death of the human race in disgrace for the sake of a divine grace.

Great Monuments

The Coliseum in Rome was, indeed, famous as one of the greatest monuments, especially, to human sadism.

On the other side of the world, however, in the Philippines, the Manila Cathedral was and still is also famous as one of the greatest monuments; unfortunately, to human stupidity. More people have lost their minds and hearts inside the Manila Cathedral than people lost their lives in the Coliseum of Rome. Poch Suzara

Man

Man is both a rational and an irrational animal. Man is rational when he is thinking. Man, however, is irrational like an animal when he is only believing.

Thus, the irrational man is a man of faith. He enjoys his free will; especially the will to freely avoid knowing what is actual or factual or what is true. Poch Suzara

The Greatest of all Miracles

A great many miracles are revealed in the holy bible both in the Old and in the New Testament.

Amazingly, however, the greatest is the miracle known as the Revealed Truth. It has yet to be revealed. Poch Suzara

The Great Religions

Thanks to the great religions of the world – Christianity, Judaism, and Islam – the human race continues to live under the welter of organized hatreds and threats of mutual extermination.

As atheists, we are growing sick and tired of this grim way of life on this planet. We atheists are against war. War is not the way to settle conflicts of superstitions. Conflicts of any kind should be settled with the power of reason.

As atheists, we never run away; on the contrary, we would rather cultivate self-conscious sensitivity to the troubles of our world. It is you, the religious morons everywhere, that’s destroying our world. We atheists are the ones saving it. We do not hate this world. We do not hate other atheists; neither have we ever declared war and killed other atheists for not believing in the existence of a silly God! And you religious morons have the gall to say that we atheists are the ones arrogant in this world of troubles and hate that you yourselves created for each other. Poch Suzara

Poverty and Mystery

“It is easier for a camel to enter the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God “ Luke 18:25. Well now, consider the rich man. Jesus said: “Sell all you have and distribute it to the poor, and you will have treasures in heaven: and come, follow me. Luke 18:22. I ask: if what truly matters in the end is treasures in heaven, what do the poor gain if treasures were given to them on this earth? Here, however, is another mystery: if the kingdom is not of this world, John 18:36, if there were already existing a perfect heaven, why would Jesus promise that when he makes his Second Coming He will insure peace and happiness in this world that will last for a thousand years? In the meantime, I ask: have any of you ever met a dumbstruck camel insane enough to want to enter the eye of a needle? Poch Suzara

Oh Jesus, My Sweet Jesus

It is incredible to believe that in this 21st century, 15,000,000 (million) Pinoys and Pinays have already migrated to some 168 countries around the world. A lot of these places are non-Christian countries. Our workers overseas are now enjoying not only the higher standard of living, but also the higher standard of thinking.

In the meantime, back home, we are taught to believe that Christ is not only real, but that “Without Christ we can do nothing. With Him we can do everything he wants us to do.” Phil Star Dec. 11, 2009.

Well, for my part, I find it painful to believe that the Filipino is the poorest people on this earth. Even the Philippines – is no longer his own country. It is now own by foreigners, especially by the Vatican power. In the meantime, around the Philippines, most of the big farms, big Beach Resorts, 5-star hotels, prime properties, girlie Bars, shopping malls, schools, colleges, and universities, and other commercial enterprises are owned by Spaniards, Americans, Australians, Koreans, Japanese, British, Chinese, Indians, Pakistanis, Saudis, Malaysian, and what-have-you businessmen and traders married to Pinays.

In Heaven

No need to do anything in heaven. It is a perfect place and therefore utterly boring. No need to sleep. No need to wake up. No need to have breakfast, lunch, or dinner. No need to do the dishes. No need to throw out trash and garbage. No need to brush teeth. No need for sex, or go to the bathroom, or dress up, or comb your hair, or make-up, or clean up, or take a shower, or watch TV, or read books, or go to your computer, or walk a dog, or drive your child to school, or go to church, or cook a meal, or go shopping, or have your motor vehicle checked for maintenance.

And you religious morons are hoping, nay, praying to end up in heaven one day? What is the matter with you people? Why do you still allow yourselves to be frightened by a lot of childish religious malarkey? Poch Suzara

Soldiering

We are told that soldiering is like writing, teaching, preaching, faith-healing, or trading. But what gives the soldier nobility is this: only he pledges to die for his country.

No doubt, a soldier has the courage to die in the battlefield. Sadly, however, he has no courage to ask what it is exactly he is told to give up his life for.

In the meantime, listen to Bertrand Russell: “There is no more horrible crime against liberty than to compel men to kill each other when their conscience tells them to live in peace.” Poch Suzara

We are Sick even in Death

Look how we all have been taught during our formative yearws to look forward after death to meeting only God, Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Moses and all the rest of the famous characters in the bible written not by Filipinos, but by Jewish authors. Never, however, are we ever to entertain the thought that we might again be re-united with our mother and father, grandparents, brothers and sisters, wife and children, and other relatives and friends and associates in the hereafter. Indeed, in life as well as in death we were all sick with sick values and sick beliefs. We prefer not the truth. We prefer sick lies and sick deceptions. They are more comforting, if not more soothing, and easier to grasp. And that is why there exist schools, colleges, and universities to teach us how to be frightened of such holy baloney to benefit those who are in control of our minds and hearts. Poch Suzara

Love

Ever since I became an atheist, I began to stop hating myself. In fact, I gradually learned to love myself. So much so that I have no need of lies and deceptions to make me happy, or to make me feel that life has meaning or is worth living. Indeed, loving myself has made me feel more creative, not destructive. I have no need of a God to love me. I am neither afraid of life nor death. I am ready for any change or development in my life. I have no need of a silly God like a silly child who needs to be friendly to a silly Santa Claus. "Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' (Matthew 5:43). On the contrary, I say, Hate divinity and hate deviltry as both are one and the same hooey phooey. Let us, instead, love humanity; especially with the power of thought. The power of thought is far more crucial, if not more beneficial, than the power of love; for, without thought, love cannot exist. Poch Suzara

The gods of the Kangaroos

If kangaroos had gods they would look like kangaroos. No kangaroo can conceptualize beyond its own limits or its own being. A kangaroo cannot think or imagine beyond the experience of a kangaroo.

Despite our human pretensions, this is also true of human beings. We human beings have gods, and they look and act remarkably like us human beings.

For my part, I envy the kangaroos. They never have to multiply and replenish the earth with kangaroos that need to go to grade school, high school, and to go for a college education to learn how to love and worship and adore a god Kangaroo. Poch Suzara

Celebrating the Love for Holy Baloney

We can very well disagree with the doctrines and get confused over dogmas of the church such as the Holy Trinity. We still, however, have faith enough to celebrate them. In other words, we love to be the victims of lies, not the masters of the truth.

Or, “Oh God, dear God, we don’t even care if you exist or not. Whether or not you do there is nothing you can do that can make us stop loving you”.

Such are the helpless victims celebrating not the love of self or the love for one another, but the love for holy non-existing baloney.

Listen to Bertrand Russell and then take a closer look at us Filipinos in this only Christian country in Asia:

“There is something feeble, and a little contemptible about a man who cannot face the perils of life without comfortable myths. Almost inevitably some part of him is aware that they are myths and that he believes them only because they are comforting. But he dare not face his thought, and he therefore cannot carry his own reflections to a logical conclusion. Moreover, as he is aware, however dimly, that his opinions are not rational, he becomes furious when they are disputed. He therefore adopts persecution, censorship, and a narrowly cramping education as essential of statecraft. In so far as he is successful, he produces a population which is timid and unadventurous and incapable of progress. Authoritarian rulers have always aimed at producing such a population. They have usually succeeded, and by their success have brought their countries to ruin.”

And in ruin what do we Filipinos continue to do? We continue to love, worship,
and adore those who ruined not only our self-respect as a people and dignity as a nation, but also ruined our future.

Come on, you guys and gals. We are now in the 21st century! Poch Suzara

God? Which God? Who determines that we all be born without religion? That we all come out of mother’s womb, not as a Catholic or a Muslim or a Jew or a Buddhist or a Hindu, but as atheists – as non-believers of the existence of God! Which God? If religions were true, and there is a God, how come we continue to live in a much troubled world? How come religion only teaches us that there is a better world to come after death? And that we should only show nothing but contempt for any man who has the ability not only to think, but to love life in this world. Now I ask you sons and daughters everywhere: where is the true God, if, in fact, there is such a thing as a “true God?” Obviously, there is no such thing as justice because there is no such thing as a God to begin with. If there is, such a God has got to be a supernatural monster who determines which part of the nature should be wonderful and which part horrible or despicable. In the meantime, we all live on a speck of dust called “earth.” It is some 4.5 billion years old. The earth is orbiting yearly round the sun for the sake of nothing; rotating daily on its own axis for the sake of nothing; and, in terms of eternity, heading for no where in space and in time for the sake of nothing. The most we humans should do while living on this earth is to try and live the good life. My mentor Bertrand Russell defined it: “The good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. What the world needs now is not only love, but also greater knowledge about the nature of love, in all its complexity.” Poch Suzara Twitter# Google# Atheist# Facebook#

The Sick Children of Asia

Here are manifestations, cries, and pleadings that show just how sick we are as the Sick Man of Asia. Indeed, “Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” Proverb 22:6 “And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. “ Matthew 18: 2 Well, listen to us Pinoys and Pinays: “I’d rather have a government run like hell by Filipinos than a government run like heaven by Americans.” President Manuel Quezon

Statistics

The religious morons of our sick country are unhappy with me. Especially when I say that there are 10 million single mothers in the Philippines today earning a living by prostitution to support their children.

The same religious people, however, will be happy with me, if I lower my estimate to, say, only 10 thousand single mothers in the Philippines today earning a living by prostitution to support their children.

As if our perpetual poverty as a people, and eternal insanity as a nation will make any difference as to the true statistics in just exactly how many single mothers there are struggling to survive earning a living by prostitution to support their children in the Philippines.

In the ultimate analysis, I ask: who really gives a damn as to what is happening to our women as we are a nation?

In the meantime, for the love of God up there via hate of one another down here – as the only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century - we are only getting more famous as the Sick Children of Asia in this already 21st century? Poch Suzara

A College-Educated Moron

A college-educated moron writes and says: “I am not against atheist. My father was an atheist almost all his life but was baptized and receive Christ in the Holy Eucharist in his last few days on earth. He was just enlightened because he can no longer defend his atheism. Poch is his own worst enemy. No need to destroy him because he is doing it well by himself.” No kidding? Did your father ever read to you verses and chapters as guiding principles written in the holy bible that made us the Sick Children of Asia? Indeed, made us believe that since Jesus is coming anyway, no need to love our country and to love each other as we are all Filipinos since there will be a better world to come with Jesus later after death in heaven under the management of the Chosen People of God - In the meantime, for my part, as I am myself a publicly declared theist, if I find myself one day about to be baptized and about to receive Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist in my last few days on this earth – believe me – I would rather kill myself first. Jesus Christ was not even a fellow-Filipino. He was a Jew born in a foreign land that never even got to be a Catholic country. Israel today is still a Jewish State! So what's this religious malarkey that I need not be destroyed because I am already destroying myself? My dear man, the day we are born is the very same day we begin to live in a dying body! Wake up, my dear man!! Is it so hard for you to face the reality that we were all born as non-believers of the faith? We were all born as atheists. No child comes out of his or her mother’s womb believing in a God or in the Son of God Jesus. No child has a religion. Well, since I was born an atheist, the least I could do is to die one day as an atheist too. I say, if we must die, let us die with self-respect and dignity. Let us die sober, and not drunk with religious lies or drugged with sacramental deceptions? In the ultimate analysis, we all arrived into this world with nothing; the least we could do is to leave this world with something. Indeed, let us one day leave this world a better place than how we found it. Or there is little reason having lived at all. Poch Suzara

Australia and Philippines Compared

Australia was colonized some 200 years by some of the finest felons, thieves, muggers, alcoholics, prostitute, atheists and agnostics and freethinkers; in fact, a strain of depravity, if not a parade of British banditry. But look how they all contributed greatly to this country's amazing vigour in growth and due development as a nation of laws, self-respect, and human dignity.

Australians today have the finest, cleanest, and highly organized cities. The greatest of health and sanitation system. Scientific and creative system of education. A hard working government. It enjoys one of the highest per capita income in the world. A decent standard of living and indeed thinking for the Australian people, by the Australian people, and of the Australian people.

The Philippines was colonized by a bunch of Catholic friars and Catholic Spanish soldiers some 400 years ago. Look at the Philippines today. All of our cities are among the dirtiest and disorganized. In fact, our streets are no longer streets, but have been converted into baby factories. We have no health and sanitation. system. We have no government of, by, or for the people, but only a government for the corrupt officials, by the corrupt officials, and of the corrupt officials. Our system of education is around 100 years backward. Filipinos still come out of schools, colleges, and universities more prepared for the next life than prepared to be a productive and creative citizen of the Republic of the Philippines.

We Filipinos are still so poor as a people and still so backward as a nation. As the only Christian country of Asia since the 16th century, we still believe in the power of prayer and that God will provide for us even as we have already become famous as the Sick Children of Asia.

In the meantime, in this already 21st century, is there hope for the Philippines for a better future? Yes, there is. But only as soon as we stop this childish nonsense of hating one another down here for the love a God up there. Or to put more bluntly, it is time we seriously attend to our sense of common human decency by discarding away that superstition otherwise more traditionally known as “divinity,” or “holy trinity,” or “Christianity,” or “El Shaddai malarkey,” or “Jesus is Lord Movement baloney,” or "Dating Daan" biblical hogwash.

Indeed, let us, instead, love the Philippines - our country. It is the only country we have as Filipinos. Poch Suzara

Single Filipina Mothers

There are about 10 millions single mothers in the Philippines today. Most of them proud of their achievement. Specially as their children, live and play in the streets of our major cities, sick and dirty as they are. Most of these single mothers are poor. They support themselves and their malnourished children by means of prostitution. Others have to work as housemaids or cooks or waitresses. Still others earn a living by working as hospitality girls in night clubs owned by foreigners; or work as helpers, and assistants in Beach resorts throughout the country owned by foreigners; or work in hotels owned by foreigners; or just work for a pimp or a policeman or a taxi driver to earn a few pesos a night. Tell them that they are among the worst criminals on this earth and they get shocked. They will insist that there is nothing wrong in carrying on an unwanted pregnancy. That there is nothing wrong with producing three (3) babies every minute of the day and night, or 1.8 millions babies yearly in the Philippines . Most of these children are potential members of the Catholic church, Iglesia ni Cirsto, El Shaddai, Jesus is Lord Movement members, Opus Dei, etc. The Catholic church and her Christian allies urges the Pinays to multiply regardless of the consequences. They are even told that productive motherhood is really in the end a virtue, and replenishing the Philippines with more babies even if unwanted is a sacred duty. In spite of population explosion the Pinays have 4 or 7 or 8 children not for society’s sake, but for the glory of God in heaven. The right to propagate, no doubt, is a freedom; but like all freedoms, when exercised by ignorance, is inimical to human welfare that generates an insane society. In the meantime, the Pinoys, as products of our schools, colleges, and universities have been taught to believe that no matter what they do for Pinays, with Pinays, against the Pinays, or just take advantage of their child-like qualities – there is always God up there who will always take care of them. Indeed, God will always provide for them. But that God will also always forgive us Pinoys of the sin of sexual stupidity, if not forgive us of the crime of social perversity. Poch Suzara
