Social Progress and Improvements

Only upon the rejection of lies and deceptions, on the one hand; and, on the other hand, the elimination of falsehoods and delusions - can society progress and improve; especially with illumination via the power of education.

A good society is not enough. The endless growth and development of society is better. What, however, we must all do, however, is to create a society that is the best for each and every one of us. For all of its members, it is a never-ending daily duty and a yearly responsibility.

Unfortunately, in the Philippines, what we love more is not a healthy, but a sick society; especially for the sake of deviltry in heaven; and, on earth for the sake of a divinity - all rolled into one silly bundle known as Christianity. Poch Suzara

Only in the Philippines

Convicting and sentencing rich Pinoy criminals to jail is big financial arrangement in the halls of justice. Pardoning and Releasing the same rich Pinoy criminals out of jail is even a bigger financial business in the halls outside justice. Indeed, among the richest of men in the Philippines today are referred to "Attorney," and also, indeed, those addressed to as "your honor." Poch Suzara

Jesus

Jesus was born of a Jewish mother in a Jewish town. Mary, His Mother was never a Catholic. During birth, Jesus was visited by 3 non-Catholic kings. Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist who was a Baptist, not a Catholic. In fact, Jesus was never raised nor educated as a Catholic. His 12 apostles were not Catholic. Indeed, the rock upon which the church was built was not a Catholic rock. The Catholic church was purely built upon sacred lies and other holy deceptions for the sake of what eventually got to be known as the biggest, largest, richest, and most powerful bank in the world today - the Vatican Bank.

What If

What if all the people you hate on this earth will be rewarded with justice to enjoy eternal salvation in heaven under the management of deviltry? What if, after my own death, I find myself in heaven in the company of my former teachers and professors and father confessor? No way, I say. I'd rather kill myself. Over my dead body should I want to mingle in heaven with such mindless bullies and heartless tuti-frutie-patuties. Well, What if all the people you love on this earth will be punished without justice to suffer eternal damnation in hell under the management of Divinity? What then? Poch Suzara

The Mess in our World

In this world of politics and religion, sin and crime, poverty and misery, perversity and stupidity, religion against other religions - happily, there is always something still to be grateful for. As for me, I am most grateful that I managed, somehow, with so much pain and confusion then to seriously excommunicate myself permanently out of the Catholic church to become an atheist. Poch Suzara

I am not a Catholic

I am a not a Catholic. I am a Filipino. As such I have the greatest love, respect, and admiration for our own Jose Rizal more than I do have; in fact, I do not have - any kind of love, affection, or admiration for that Jewish fellow born in a Jewish land some 2,000 years ago. His name was Jesus, the so-called Son of a Jewish God who was not even raised and educated as a Catholic in the Philippines. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The Poor Pinoys

The vast majority of Pinoys are, indeed,a hard working people. That is, of course, if hard working means exactly the same thing as hard praying. Indeed, we Pinoys attach more reliability to praying than we appreciate the miracles of hard thinking while hard working.

After all, in our schools, colleges, and universities - we were taught to believe and to never lose faith with the Word of God written in the holy bible such as: "Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you; for everyone that asketh, receiveth' and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened."

Sadly, however, as the only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century, the vast majority of poor Pinoys are still waiting and waiting for the results of their hard prayers said daily, nightly, weekly, monthly, and yearly!

In the meantime, we consume without producing. We are spending without earning. We are praying without working. What a waste of precious time as a people. What a waste of precious energy as a nation. We poor Pinoys are still stuck with our silly prayers behind a silly theology; when we should already be growing as a people with science and developing as a nation with technology. Poch Suzara

Sins of the Priests

The more sins you commit and confess, the more the church profits by the steps you have to take to mitigate your punishment in Purgatory before going, eventually, to heaven. The system is convenient both for the priests and for the sinners. It is, however, silly to pretend that such a system inspires growth as a people and enhances development as a nation. In fact, what it does promote is the spiritually poor Filipino getting more and more famous as the Sick Man of Asia. Poch Suzara

Our Corrupt System of Education

In the Philippines, for the most part - schools, colleges, and universities are places where cheap souls are canned for eternal salvation in heaven. While precious minds are damned for eternal damnation in hell. Poch Suzara

We, the Poor Pinoys

The vast majority of Pinoys are, indeed, a hard working people. That is, of course, if hard working means exactly the same thing as hard praying. Indeed, we Pinoys attach more reliability by praying than we appreciate the values of working.

After all, in our schools, colleges, and universities - we were taught to believe, indeed, never lose faith in the Word of God written in the holy bible like: "Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you; for everyone that asketh, receiveth' and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened."

Sadly, however, as the only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century, the vast majority of poor Pinoys are still waiting and waiting for the results of their hard prayers said hourly, daily, nightly, weekly, monthly, and yearly!

In the meantime, we consume without producing. We are spending without earning. We are praying without working. Instead of struggling creatively against foreigners, we would rather compete against each other to achieve more of the same old nothing.

What a waste of precious time as a people. What a waste of precious energy as a nation. We Pinoys are still stuck with silly prayers behind a silly theology. At this point in time of Philippine history - we should have already grown as a people with science and should have already developed as a nation with technology. Poch Suzara

Prayers of Medical Doctors

In order to enjoy success, wealth, power, and glory in this life - medical doctors must pray daily to ask God to never, ever, make health infectious; but only to please always keep diseases contagious. Such is the sick career of medical doctors on earth for the greater glory of a sick God in heaven. For my part, I have all the love and respect and admiration for doctors who are like me - an atheist. Poch Suzara

God Bless You Malarkey

I have met many people, both rich and poor in the Philippines and in foreign countries. But never, have I ever met a person who is exempted from troubles or spared of problems because he or she has been truly blessed by a loving, kind, and a merciful God. "God Bless You" is a message not only based upon a lot of useless mystery; it is also about mindless spirituality, if not about a lot of sacred baloney, not to mention a lot of sacred malarkey. No one, but no one has ever been blessed by God. Though I have a sneaky suspicion that if there is any one that God has always blessed - it is the devil - his partner in crime against humanity.

Mark Zuckerberg - Man of the Year 2010

Mark Zuckerberg - Founder of Facebook - was born in White Plains, New York to Karen, a psychiatrist, and Edward, a dentist. Mark and three sisters, Randi, Donna, and Arielle, were brought up in Dobbs Ferry, New York. Zuckerberg was raised Jewish, including having his bar mitzvah when he turned 13, although he has since described himself as an atheist. Cheers to the Atheist movement throughout the world. It is about time we destroy the greatest twister of minds and distorter of hearts - stupid religion. The evil should already be dead and buried forever. Indeed, religion encourages stupidity and an insufficient sense of reality for the glory of a divinity in hell cahoots with deviltry in heaven. Poch Suzara

Jesus and His last Words

Jesus' last words on the cross, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" hardly seem like the words of a Savior of mankind. It doesn't take a high school expelled student like me to figure there is something mysteriously wrong here. Indeed, how could and why should a God forsake Himself? Poch Suzara

Good without religion

I was good as a child. I had no faith in any religion. In fact, when I came out of my mom's womb - I was an atheist. Just like every one else is an atheist born into this world... It was only at the age of reason when I was told that God created me in his own image and likeness and that I was born with Original Sin. That any sin or crime I commit can be forgiven by God via confession to a priest. Except of course the sin of not believing in the Holy Spirit. That, for as long I have faith in God, my soul will be saved under eternal salvation; otherwise, if I continue to follow the ways of the devil as a sinner - I will be punished forever and ever under eternal damnation. Indeed, I am back to being good, especially good for something, and no longer good for nothing when I reverted back to my original atheism... Can you imagine how mentally confused, emotionally twisted, and psychologically distorted I was, as a growing boy, indoctrinated to be frightened of all those sick characters revealed in the holy bible as the truth?

Kill Kill and Kill

Kill one man and you are a murderer. Kill millions and you are a conqueror. Kill all and you are a God.

For my part, I have neither the taste nor the gumption to kill any one. After all, I love humanity even as I abhor both silly divinity and stupid deviltry. Indeed, happily, proudly, and fearlessly, - I am an ATHEIST, not destructively, but creatively. Poch

The Death of Jesus

Jesus, the Son of a Jewish God, was born in a Jewish town. He died on a Jewish cross for your Catholic sins. Should you not therefore celebrate the death of Jesus by committing more Catholic sins? Now could any of you really believe in Jesus, a Jew, crucified on a Jewish cross by fellow-Jews, dying and then resurrecting for the sins of the Catholics? As for me, for the sake of sanity, I put aside incredulity. I utterly refuse to attach credibility to this childish, indeed, fantastic bible silly story written and inspired by a silly divinity.

China and the Philippines

Dec. 12, 2010
Philippine Daily Inquirer
Manila

Letter to the Editors

Dear Editors:

China is a great nation. She has a government. Manage effectively by its own government officials. Especially how to deal, fearlessly, with foreign power. Such as the Catholic Church and its bishops meddling into Chinese State affairs.

In the Philippines, we hardly have a government of, by, and for the people. What we have, however, are lots of government officials working to enrich themselves. Most of them products of Catholic education via schools, colleges, and Universities established in the Philippines - the only Catholic country in Asia since the 16th century.

Consider the way our so-called Public Servants as government officials begin, if at all, their work in the office. They begin with daily prayers to God to give us this day our daily bread, and to lead us not into temptation! Is it any wonder that we Filipinos continue to be losers as a people? But our public servants also pray daily to Mary, Mother of God - to pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death, amen. It is any wonder that the Philippines continue to be a failure as a nation?

I said it before, I say it again: In this already 21st century, it is time for us Filipinos to radically re-evaluate our system of education. Otherwise, as this century ends 90 years from now - we Filipinos will continue to be not the rich masters, but only the poor victims of childish politics in cahoots with infantile religious values.

Learning

Much more intelligent learning can be achieved not inside, but outside the classroom. Especially, when teachers, frightened into learning new and fresh ideas have been hired to teach Catholicism. Poch Suzara

Free Will not that Free

We have the free will to choose our spouses in marriage; but we have no free will to choose our mother and father, brothers and sisters. Free Will is not that free. At any rate, for my part, I have no need of a silly free will to love as I do dearly love my parents, my sisters, and my two sons and my only daughter. Poch Suzara
