Jesus in the Bible

In La Salle grade school we were repeatedly told that God is not only here, is not only there, is not only everywhere, but that God is also present in the past, present in the present, and present in the future. But we were also frightened to believe that we must always seek and find God in order to save our souls damned in hell after death.

Do you see now why, in this God-forsaken and devil-taken only christian country
in Asia, millions of us Filipinos have been schooled to carry on our popularity throughout the world as the Sick Man of Asia?

In the holy bible, as written by inspired authors of God, Jesus clearly declared: "WHOSOEVER SHALL NOT RECEIVE THE KINGDOM OF GOD AS A LITTLE CHILD, HE SHALL NOT ENTER THEREIN." Mark 10:15

I asked it before, I ask it again: When will you college-educated frightened morons begin to grow up and contribute to the spiritual growth of the Filipino as a people; and, contribute as well as to the intellectual maturity of the Philippines as a nation?

Must we remain forever on our dumbstruck knees waiting for the Second Coming of Jesus to remedy the ills of our sick society? Especially for the glory of God in hell always in cahoots with the devil in heaven? Poch Suzara

The Bible for Whom, For What

Reading and accepting bible messages as written by inspired authors of God produced not only the Catholics, Lutherans, Baptists, Methodists, Presbyterians, Anglicans, Unitarians, Episcopalians, Mormons, Masons, Iglesia Ni Cristo, El Shaddais, Dating Daan, tamang Daan, Jesus is Lord Movement, but also produced 57 other versions of bible itself, not to mention produced also the atheists, agnostics, heretics, and yes produced also the Iglesia de Pocholo? Again, I ask: what was the purpose of God inspiring His authors to write the bible for WHOM? To accomplish WHAT in this world that is not only God forsaken, but also already Devil over taken?

Bible And the Constitution

Mar Patalinjug wrote, and I quote" "The Constitution should be read, understood and interpreted as it is WRITTEN--which is as clear as a legal document could get.
Any "ambiguity" or "lack of clarity" must be the invention of Litigants who have a pecuniary or other reason deliberately not to understand and interpret it AS WRITTEN."

Exactly the same thing should apply with the holy bible. We must read, understand, and interpret it as a religious book written by inspired authors of God.

Unfortunately, due to fear, fear of God, fear of the devil, fear of the unknown, and fear of death, we ignore all the contradictions, inconsistencies, absurdities, obscenities, and atrocities written in the holy bible. Poch Suzara

Bible Confusion

Reading and accepting bible messages as written by inspired authors of God produced not only the Catholics, Lutherans, Baptists, Methodists, Presbyterians, Anglicans, Unitarians, Episcopalians, Mormons, Masons, Iglesia Ni Cristo, El Shaddais, Dating Daan, tamang Daan, Jesus is Lord Movement, but also produced 57 other versions of bible itself, not to mention produced also the atheists, agnostics, heretics, and yes produced also the Iglesia ni Rivera?

Again, I ask: what was the purpose of God inspiring His authors to write the bible for WHOM to accomplish WHAT in this world that is not only God forsaken, but also already Devil taken? Poch Suzara

Free Will is a Serious Joke

Yes, oh Yes, we all have the free will to produce children. Now the question is: where is that same free will of said children to choose whether it wants to be born a girl or a boy or even to choose not to be born at all. Or, to choose the kind of mother and father they would want to have?Free will is a serious joke. Poch Suzara

The Multiplication Table Not Inspired

Do you and your religious gang on these pages, in this forum, have the same problem, the same conflict, the same disagreement, the same need for understanding THE MULTIPLICATION TABLE? Now have you ever heard of the MULTIPLICATION TABLE was written by INSPIRED authors of God?

If simple thinkers can come up with the MULTIPLICATION TABLE as the perfect model of truth, as it is precise and certain and free from all temporal dross, free from contradictions, inconsistencies, absurdities, obscenities, and free from atrocities - why couldn't GOD do exactly the same thing with his INSPIRED authors writing the so-called HOLY BOOK?

No One is completely Useless

Mar Patalinjug, A teacher in grade 6 La Salle once told me in class that I was a totally useless student. I replied: "No one is completely useless, because the most horrible of us at least serves as a horrible example to others not to emulate." After I was expelled, I embarked on a self-education course. I gradually came to realize that it was my teachers in school who were the ones totally useless for me never to emulate. Indeed, there is greater value in learning HOW to think than learning WHAT to believe. During this Christmas season, while millions will be celebrating the birth of Christ, I would like instead to celebrate with you and Helen, Manny, John, Litton, Emily, Tolo, Peewee, Bobby, Louie, Gil, Frank, Doug, joe Assad, Danding, Nancy, and the rest in our communion of thinkers - the birth of man's capacity for ethical, moral, and philosophical development in love, beauty, knowledge, and the joys in life. More power to all of you in the years to come! Poch Suzara, 2011

Scientific Way of Thinking

Between one philosopher compared to a thousand theologians, I would first listen to Bertrand Russell: He made it clear that - "freedom is the supreme good; for without freedom personality is impossible. Life and knowledge are today so complex, that only by free discussions can we pick our way through errors and prejudices to that total perspective which is truth. Let men, let even teachers, differ and debate; out of such diverse opinions will come an intelligent relativity of belief which will not readily fly to arms; hatred and war come largely of fixed ideas or dogmatic faith. We think of education as the transmission of a certain body of settled knowledge, when it should be rather the development of a scientific habit of mind." Now, if you want to learn to be scientific in your way of thinking: you must first learn to value observation, and your conclusion from that observation must be tentative as the conclusion itself must still be under further investigation by way of experimentation. Science is always about lively analysis. The scientific way of thinking has nothing to do with deadly paralysis. In the meantime, science is always tentative. It is never definite or dogmatic. Science is always ready and willing to admit its own errors as science has been and always will be a self-correcting enterprise. As I am an individual in love with the scientific way of thinking, I may seem bleak and cold, arrogant or impertinent - to those of you who would rather remain frightened of Christian values and beliefs. But as I learned to muster enough intellectual courage to question everything, I have also learned to thrust fear out of my thoughts, and this lesson, once learned, brings a kind of peaceful sanity which is impossible to those of you still bamboozled by grade school fairy tales - threatened into us during our so-called "formative years." In the ultimate analysis, I said it before, and I say it again: due to, if not because of, Christian values and beliefs as the basis of Filipino custom and tradition, we never celebrate the rise of scientific intelligence to benefit our country's growth and development; on the contrary, we only celebrate the traditional and customary ways of Catholic mediocrity to maintain, support, and defend the horrors that make famous as a sick society.

Understand our World

When the real world is not sufficiently flattering we all tend to take refuge in a world of make believe, where all our desires are gratified without great effort. This is the essence of fear, especially the fear of thought. It is also the source of the great religions and myths that have done more harm than good in this world.

For my part, I would rather understand the world and, if I can, change it. After all, understanding the world and the desire to change it are the two great engines of progress, without which, human society, especially our society, will remain as sick as ever; especially for God's glory in heaven.

A college Educated Filipino

Owners of schools, College and university owners ought to be the promoters of civilization. Teachers and professors ought ought to be the guardians of a sane and a healthy society.

We think of education as the transmission of a certain body of settled knowledge. On the contrary, education ought to be about the development of a scientific habit of mind. Indeed, learning as a process of lively analysis, and not a matter of deadly paralysis.

It is sad and painful to see college educated men and women of this country carry a heavy load of useless guilt on their backs. They even believe
it as being blessed by God with peace and joy in life. As a matter of historical fact, they are intellectually crippled by its destructive weight. It is, in this way, that they readily serve a silly divinity up there rather than play vital roles in the development of sanity of our country via its growth and maturity down here.

I said it before, I say it again: A college educated Filipino who is always worried whether his soul might saved or might be damned usually has a soul that isn't worth saving or worth a damn. Poch Suzara

A Worthless God

Dear Bob Gabuna, It is incredible how you miserably fail to see the difference. Neither the wind nor heat nor electrical current would bother to threaten any of us with hell-fire eternal damnation if we do not believe freely in their existence. Now your God, so emotionally insecure, so unstable in character, so much of an egomaniac would easily get hurt or feel needlessly offended if we do believe in his existence. I said it before, I say it again: Such a God is a childish God and therefore NOT worth believing, loving, respecting. Such a God needs psychiatric treatment in an insane asylum. Cheers! Poch Suzara

Not the Healthy Masters, but The Sick Victims of Christianity

Far more damaging than sexual abuse is the intellectual abuse of children in Catholic schools. Indeed, what could be more damaging than teaching children to believe and to have faith in a lot of sacred lies and holy deceptions otherwise more known as "free will." Such as to believe that a Son of God Jesus was crucified on the cross 2,000 years ago to destroy the devil? But the devil is still alive and kicking. Still pretty much active in cahoots with God's divine plan, especially for us Filipinos with our "free will" in the Philippines, - the only Catholic country in Asia not of our free choice since the 16th century. In the meantime, in this already 21st century, millions of Filipinos existing without running water, without toilet facilities, living in cart, Nipa huts, or under bridges, indeed, living in the dirty slums of our major cities continue praying to God to "give us this day our daily bread," and to "lead us not into temptation! And after falling into temptation they also pray daily to "holy Mary, Mother of God, to pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death, amen!" No doubt, the truth hurts; but lies are far more damaging and can last for a thousand years. I ask: when will we Filipinos, especially as a people, begin to wake up to the ugly truth that we are not the healthy masters of spirituality. We are, in fact, since the 16th century, the sick victims of Christianity! Poch Suzara Twitter# facebook# Google#

The Joys of Fucking, to Hell with Thinking

Most men enjoy the pleasures of fucking rather than they do enjoy the joys of thinking. Most women would also readily participate in the joys of fucking rather than they do enjoy the pleasures of thinking.

How else could we explain why we are now 7,000,000,000 BILLION people living on this fragile planet? Many of us are even asking the rest of us to please respect our religious beliefs which has nothing whatsoever to do with the joys of cogitating or the pleasures of thinking. Poch Suzara

Holy Bible Jewish Garbage

Do we really need to read ancient literature in order to be able to see God? Which God? The supernatural monster who impregnated one of his own daughters Mary to produce a grandson named Jesus Christ. Indeed, a so-called Savior born some 2,000 years ago in a foreign land that never got to be converted into a Catholic country as it is still a Jewish State!

I am an atheist. I have more love and respect for my parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents than I have love and respect for the stupid foreigners who colonized and ruined my country in God's name and for His glory in heaven.

Again, I ask you my dear reader: HAVE YOU EVER MET ANY ONE WHO HAS BEEN BLESSED BY GOD? Blessed how? By living a life of fear and ignorance and obedience?

I said it before, I say it again: TO HELL WITH ALL THAT HOLY BIBLE JEWISH GARBAGE!

Obedience to God's Words

Today published in the Philippine Star: "OBEDIENCE TO GOD'S WORDS IS THE RECIPE FOR SPIRITUAL SUCCESS." Dec. 9,2011

What a brazen lie! We Filipinos have always been frightened in school and at home to always obey God's word. Look at the results in this already 21st century: We are so successful but only at being spiritually heartless, morally rudderless, politically aimless, economically mindless, culturally directionless, and historically reckless!

I said it before, I say it again: TO HELL WITH SPIRITUAL STUPIDITY IN THIS ASIA'S ONLY CHRISTIAN COUNTRY since the 16th century. Poch Suzara

God as a Perfect Monster

Please read and understand your bible. In Isaiah 45:7 God said: 'I FORM THE LIGHT AND CREATE DARKNESS: I MAKE PEACE AND CREATE EVIL: I THE LORD DO THESE THINGS." As for me to freely love, freely respect, freely worship, or freely believe such a supernatural Weirdo, nay, such a divine Maniac or such a perfect Monster - NO WAY, JOSE! OVER MY DEAD BODY.

Jesus Christ

"COMING TO CHRIST IS NOT MERELY INFORMATIONAL; IT'S TRANSFORMATIONAL." Published in the Philippine Star. Indeed, from the wealthiest and healthiest people in all of Asia before Christianity arrived to colonized the Philippines, we are now the SICK MAN of ASIA in this already 21st century. Thanks to the Son of God Jesus, who is not only informational, but also transformational. It is only after death that we Filipinos look forward to meeting Jesus in heaven. As Jesus, however, promised to return some two thousand years ago, I am about the one and only exceptional Filipino who is looking forward to meeting Jesus in person right here and now. Indeed, I hope and pray that Jesus will soon return. In this way, he can begin to straighten out the mess caused by Christian values and beliefs keeping the Filipinos spiritually poor as a people and the Philippines morally backward as a nation. In the meantime, as Jesus, however, has not only been informational, but also transformational, - what has the results been for us Filipinos in this only Christian country in all of Asia? Hate, fear, ignorance, filth, squalor, poverty, not to mention political mediocrity in cahoots with biblical insanity pretty much characterize our way of life. It is, indeed, not only damnable daily, weekly, and monthly, but also God-damnable yearly! Poch Suzara

I Celebrate Atheism, not Catholicism

Millions of Filipinos celebrate December 25 as the birth of a Jewish Lord, the
Son of God, known as Jesus Christ - born in a foreign land, some 2,000 years ago -
the so-called "Savior of the Filipinos.".

For my part, as an atheist, 365 days of the year - I celebrate daily the pleasures
in life - intellectual growth and philosophical development; the love of learning, happy, expansive, generous, glad when others are happy, not glad when others are not happy.

I celebrate the pursuit of the truth as the unexamined life, indeed, is not worth living. In brief, I celebrate daily the good life - one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. Poch Suzara

Foul and Vulgar Messages Written in the Bible

The foul and vulgar language of Poch Suzara is rather amateurish compared to the foul and vulgar messages written in the holy bible - specially to tickle the ribs of the sick religious saps and jerks on these pages. “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of dead men's bones and everything unclean.” Matthew 23:27 “You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good? For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of.” Matthew 12:3 “You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being condemned to hell?” Matthew 23:33 “But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to where he was baptizing, he said to them: “You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?” Matthew 3:7 “You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.” John 8:44 “For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5: "I form the light and create darkness: I make peace and create evil: I the Lord do these things." Is. 45:7 "For it is written, I will bring to nothing the wisdom of the wise, and will to nothing the understanding of the prudent." 1Cor.1:19 "For in much wisdom is much grief, and he increaseth knowledge, increaseth sorrow." Eccl.1:18 "Love not the world, neither the things that ARE in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him." 1John 2:15 - Poch Suzara Google# Facebook# Twitter#

Indoctrinated, YES. Educated, NO!

For the sake of argument, let us define "education" not as the painful accumulation of dead facts and useless dates, but as an ennobling intimacy with lives of great men and women of history. Not as the preparation of the individual to "make a living," but as the development of every potential capacity in him for the comprehension, control, and appreciation of this world. Our World. Above all, let us consider education as the technique of transmitting as completely as possible, to as many as possible, that scientific, technological, intellectual, moral, and artistic heritage through which the race forms the growing individual that makes him a decent human being at home with the freedom of thought and sane action.

Under this definition, I must admit, openly or publicly, that if I had finished 6 years of La Salle grade school, 4 years of La Salle high school, and 4 years of college at De la Salle University, I still would consider myself today, not as an "educated Filipino" but only as a faith-soaked "indoctrinated Catholic" - useful to fear God up there by being utterly useless to love of my country down here.

Now, imagine our city councilors, city mayors, governors, congressmen, senators, and President as government officials - the products of Catholic schools, colleges, and universities. With all of them there is more fear of God up there and than there is love of country down here.

Indeed, love of country means the same thing as love of health and sanitation. Love of education. Love of ideas. Love of work. Love of commitment. Love of punctuality. Love of schedule. Love of law and order. And the most vital of all loves - no, not love of a divinity, but simply the love of fellow-citizens for the sake of our love of country. Poch Suzara
