Better to Grow up than to be Born again

My Dear Rev. Ben Rivera, I don't know about you but I was given a great many opportunities to be BORN-again christian. But like any other Filipino gifted by nature with self-respect and dignity as a human being, I decided instead to GROW UP while I search for the truth and not live a life of holy lies or dominated by sacred deceptions unworthy of decent and intelligent Filipinos!

Stupid Beliefs as Products of Stupid Religion

The whole idea behind science is to develop the human mind to THINK. The whole idea behind religion is to control the human mind to BELIEVE. If we Filipinos were sick as a people and even more sick as a nation it is simply because most of our BELIEFS are products of STUPID RELIGION as faithfully indoctrinated into us via a stupid system of education generated in schools, colleges, and universities owned and operated by the Catholic church in the Philippines.

Silly Biblical Miracles

"The most serious doubt that has been thrown on the authenticity of the biblical miracles is the fact that most of the witnesses in regard to them were fishermen. Arthur "Pitcher" Binstead - 1846-1915 - British Journalist "In the Philippines, however, biblical miracles are all known to be historically factual by college-educated Filipinos - the products of Catholic education in La Salle, Ateneo, San Beda, Letran, UST, Assumption college, St. Scholastica, Aim, Miriam college, etc, etc; in fact, by more than 2,200 of such schools, colleges, and universities own and operated by the Catholic church in this only Catholic country in Asia.

Deadly Christian Quote

God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks to us in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: It is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world. C.S. Lewis

Mix, however, the three issues inextricably together and they all add up to human stupidity, perpetually, as inspired by a silly divinity, eternally; especially
in the Philippines, the only country in Asia since the 16th century that has been blessed with deviltry behind Christianity. Poch Suzara

We are Born Innocent, not educated

We are a nation with more than a thousand schools, colleges, and universities - mostly own and operated by the Catholic church. Hardly therefore a dozen educated Filipinos. Consider the average Filipino with a college education in our country. He has a better chance to arrive at a high government office if he achieves first a reputation in mediocrity. His main function in government moreover, is to serve the rulers and deceived the ruled. It is, in this way, as citizens of our own Repulic, indeed, as products of our schools, colleges, and universities - we have little sense of civility. We hardly have love for our country instilled into us; instead, during our formative years in school, what is entrusted into our minds and hearts is more love and respect, indeed, more faith in divinity otherwise more known as CHRISTIANITY. Thus, in our own country, it is more nationalistic to declare that we are, first and foremost - Catholics, or Aglipays, or member of the El Shadai, or member of the Jesus is our Lord movement, or member of the Mormon church, etc; hardly, however, are we ever proudly to identify ourselves as Filipinos - citizens of the Republic of the Philippines.

Stupid Victims of Religion

Letter to the Editors:

Published today, Feb. 6, 2012, in the Philippine Star, Ripley's BELIEVE IT OR NOT series: "Thousands of people live among the dead as squatters in the North Cemetery of the Philippines Capital - Manila."

In the meantime, in this already 21st century, it is still taught in our schools, colleges, and universities that to have sex for the sake of pleasure is a sin against God; but to have sex for the sake of making babies is a virtue. Indeed, population growth is good business for the priesthood industry as blessed daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly by God keeping us Filipinos historically ahead but only as the Sick Man of Asia.

Only in the Philippines: poor Filipinos living among the dead in the cemetery is proof enough that a kind and loving God up there does not only provide for the dead, but also provides for the living in the Philippines down here.

I said it before, I say it again: we are NOT the intelligent masters; on the contrary, we are the stupid victims of religion keeping us Filipinos directionless as a people and rudderless as a nation! Poch Suzara

A Man without books is the poorest of Men

Philippine Daily Inquirer Letter to the Editors, Dear Sirs: As a high school expelled student of some 60 years ago, I read with much pride and gusto the sane letter written by Ryan Maboloc published today in the PDI, Feb. 2, 2012. Indeed, without books a man suffers poverty of the worst kind: the poverty of the mind and heart. I myself have written before - corruption as the foundation of the Filipino way of life comes mostly from our corrupt system of education. Philosopher Bertrand Russell summarized it: "We are all born ignorant, not corrupt. We are made corrupt by education." Cheers, Poch Suzara

Corruption - the Result of our Corrupt System of Education

Corruption in the Philippines in this 21st century? Take a good look at corruption in the Philippines during the 17th, 18th, 19th, and 20th century. Jose Rizal wrote in 1886: “In the catalogue of human ills there is to be found a cancer so malignant that the least touch inflames it and cause agonizing pains; afflicted with such a cancer, a social cancer, and seeking the best care for your ills, I shall do with you what was done in ages past with the sick. I shall endeavor to show your condition, faithfully and ruthlessly. I shall lift a corner of the veil which shrouds the disease, sacrificing to the truth everything, even self-love – for, as your son, your defects and weaknesses are also mine.” Today in our sick society, millions upon millions of college-educated Pinoys and Pinays hardly know the real Jose Rizal as one of the greatest thinkers the world has ever produced. Under pains of going to hell forever, millions of Filipinos have been frightened to believe that before he was executed by firing squad, as authorized by the power of the Catholic church, - Rizal cried like a little boy, begged to go to confession, heard mass, received communion, and retracted. After which dead, he was not even given a Catholic burial. His remains just put inside an old sack and then thrown in Paco cemetery. I asked it before, I ask it again: do you people see now why as products of schools, colleges, and universities owned and operated by the Catholic church we Filipinos continue to be the victims as well as the masters of CORRUPTION of the worst kind: The CORRUPTION OF THE FILIPINO MIND AS A PEOPLE and the CORRUPTION OF THE FILIPINO HEART AS A NATION.

Our Need for a Savior

It is incredible to believe that in this world of science and technology, indeed, in this already 21st century, we Filipinos are still so religiously fucked as a people and even more religiously fucked as a nation in that we still are in need of a SAVIOR from out there to save us away from stupid religiosity down here. I asked it before, I ask it again: How long must our corrupt system of education continue to be otherwise known as a Blessing from God? Poch Suzara

Corruption - Historical in the Philippines

Feb. 3,2012 My dear et al, Corruption in the Philippines in this 21st century? Take a good look at corruption in the Philippines during the 17th, 18th, 19th, and 20th century. Jose Rizal wrote in 1886: “In the catalogue of human ills there is to be found a cancer so malignant that the least touch inflames it and cause agonizing pains; afflicted with such a cancer, a social cancer, and seeking the best care for your ills, I shall do with you what was done in ages past with the sick.

Faith-Healers are LIARS

Dear Rev. Ben Rivera,

The FAITH-HEALER IS A LIAR. THE BIGGER LIAR IS THAT ONE WHO CLAIMS HE GOT CURED! The cemetery is full of such dead and buried LIARS.

So, at the age of 30, when you became a Christian, how come you did not grow or changed? How come you remained as a dumbstruck Pinoy mentally crippled as ever? Do you honestly believe Jesus is your SAVIOR - the SAVIOR OF THE SICK MAN OF ASIA?

As for me, I thank God that I managed, somehow, to SAVE my precious mind, not saved my stupid SOUL; especially by getting expelled out of La Salle high school some 60 years ago. Cheers, Poch Suzara

Second Coming of the Jesus Garbage

An abused child quite frequently will grow into being an abusive adult. A frightened child will grow into a frightened adult. In the Philippines we are all born, raised, and educated to believe that the SICK MAN OF ASIA is really another word for having FAITH IN JESUS. Today in this already 21st century, we still have millions of Filipinos looking forward to nothing except the SECOND COMING of Jesus to save the Philippines away from the evils of deviltry as inspired by divinity otherwise more known as CHRISTIANITY.

The Truth about Atheism

My dear Hammad, Since you do not believe in the God of the Christians, that makes you an ATHEIST. Well, since the Christians do not believe in Allah, the God of the Muslims, that makes the Christians ATHEISTS also. Here is another problem for you Christians and Muslims: None of you believe in Yahweh - the God of the Jews. So all of you Muslims, Christians, and Jews are all ATHEISTS. As with me in my simplicity - I am the one and only real ATHEIST in this forum. I do not believe in the God of the Christians, in the God of the Muslims, or in the God of the Jews! As a matter of fact, I do not believe nor do I care to believe in the existence of any other God out there or existing anywhere or everywhere down here! Cheers!

Sick Son of God and Sick God, the Father

A God who allows His own Chosen People on earth to get his only begotten Son crucified on a cross has got to be a SICK God. Such a God should be charged in court for child abuse

For my part, I refuse to believe in such a SICK God as worthy of my love, respect,
and admiration.

In the meantime, for the only begotten Son of God Jesus declaring while crucified
on the cross with words such as "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do," has also got to be the Son of a sick God the Father and sick God the mother.

I said it before, I say it again: I AM THE FATHER, GRANDFATHER, and the GREAT- GRANDFATHER of ATHEISM of the Philippines. Any one of you out there having a problem with that, I say: YOU HAVE NO NEED TO FORGIVE ME BECAUSE I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT I AM DOING! Poch Suzara

Deadly Christianity

"It is possible that mankind is on the threshold of a golden age; but, if so, it will be necessary first to slay the dragon that guards the door, and this dragon is religion." Bertrand Russell

If I may add, it is possible that the Philippines can be on the way to achieving the greatest of wealth and the best of health for her people - the Filipinos; but first, she must totally get rid of deadly Christianity out of the way irrevocably and, indeed, permanently. Poch Suzara

The Talking Serpent in the Holy Bible

Where in the holy bible does it say that the Talking Serpent who fucked Adam and Eve to death for the sake of their Original Sin - came from the Philippines? Poch Suzara

Impeachment Trial to defend our culture of Corruption

Only in the Philippines: a top lawyer, an expert on the laws of our land, a person
legally competent, with integrity and probity, and judicially independent gets appointed by the president of our Republic to be country's top magistrate - the chief justice of the Supreme Court.

Along the way, however, he is accused of violating public trust, acquiring ill-gotten wealth, failure to disclose to the public his statement of assets and liabilities, etc - in all
8 charges filed against him. Instead of defending himself in the Impeachment trial, he hires a battery of the most expensive lawyers of the land to defend his case. Presumably for the sake of "due process" to defend and protect our culture of corruption, not in aid of new legislation precisely to get rid of corruption out of our sick country. Poch Suzara

It is Time to dump Jesus out of the Philippines

Here's one classic reason why we Filipinos are famous as the Sick Man of Asia, specially as we love, worship, and adore our Jewish Savior, the Son of a Jewish God Jesus - who, instead of revealing to us our purpose in creation and responsibility for our country and its future, declares a lot of holy bible baloney to keep us crippled as a people and troubled as a nation.

Jesus tells us to "take no thought" for anything, "for your Father in heaven knoweth your need before ye ask Him" - a perfect example of that "false security"under which we have lived. This Jesus declaration has no literal meaning nor significance whatsoever, especially for living the good life - one inspired by love and guided by human intelligence.

Yea, let's take no thought for our own welfare and this heavenly Father will let us starve. Take no thought for health and sanitation and we die of this "heavenly Father's" murderous germs, virus, and bacteria. Take no thought for economic justice and we shall remain jobless, pennyless, and worthless. Take no thought for political justice and we have a nation that remains mired in sins and in crimes.

Thought, indeed, the power of thought, is precisely our duty and responsibility as citizens of our own country. Devoid of thought, we have nothing going for us except to wait, like sick men and sick women - for "divine providence."

On the contrary, what we need is human providence: knowledge and intelligence to make right these God-ordained wrongs. We need a real practical beliefs and intelligent social values that will help us help ourselves with pride, self-respect, and dignity. Under these beauties we have a sense of direction as a people and sense of protection of our beloved nation.

The Sacred Beliefs of the Sick Man of Asia

THE SACRED BELIEFS OF THE SICK MAN OF ASIA PROUD OF HIS FREE WILL They believe that human intelligence is always a sin. Human stupidity always a virtue. Though at most times they cannot tell the difference. They do not read the bible; but when they do and cannot make heads or tails of bible verses, they call it - “divine wisdom.” They believe that believing is far more crucial than knowing. In fact, they believe that to be among the silly believers collectively is far more pleasing to a divinity than to be among the intelligent thinkers individually. They believe that to be a “born again” is more pleasing to God especially if one remains a child in a state of chronic dependence and does not have to grow up to become a mature thinking adult. They believe in religion not primarily as a search for philosophical veracity, but as an overwhelming search for an ally in the sky for the sake of emotionally security. They believe that it does not matter what mysterious things one believes for as long as it remains perpetually mysterious. They believe that we have no population problem of 100 million poor Filipinos growing to 200 million poorer Filipinos by the year 2040 because God is good and will always provide for the Philippines. They believe that God inspired the silly authors to write the bible. But that same God could not inspire the stupid theologians to announce to the world at large if the souls of our dead parents, grandparents and other dead loved-ones made it to heaven or are now punished in hell. They believe in the man of faith despite the fact that the man of faith is like a silly drunkard who clings to a lamppost for support, not illumination They believe in the existence of immortality that consists of a hereafter even if there were no herebefore. Which makes the concept of immortality nothing but a biblical farce, a fraud, and a ceremony. They believe that Jesus died on the cross to destroy the devil. The devil, however, is still alive today employed as chief military adviser of the US government installing the freedom of deviltry in oil-rich countries. They believe that the bible was written by inspired authors of God. Such authors, however, were a bunch of superstitious primitives who did not even know that the earth is round or that it rotates on its own axis while it orbits round the sun. They believe that eating no meat on Good Fridays is a great virtue. But to live like pigs and to think like cows during the rest of the year is the greatest of social values, specially through Christ, our Lord, amen. They believe that if a belief were believed by some 100 million people, it must be a true belief. Never mind even if said belief does not accord with the facts. They believe that after death they will meet with God face to face. As if God has a face and as if the believers themselves will have a face to face anyone after death. They believe practice makes perfect. They therefore practices stupidity daily on this earth so that by the time they get to heaven they will be stupid perfectly. Indeed, “on earth as it is in heaven.” They believe in how to win friends and influence people especially if they were the same religious morons – the stupid teachers - who are the greatest influence on children during the formative years in school. They believe that the atheists are a bunch of worthless and immoral morons. They ignore the historical fact that the atheists have never declared war on other atheists for not believing in the existence of God. They believe that Jose Rizal’s life was not tragic. On the contrary, that it was quite patriotic. Especially since inspired ecclesiastic managed to have him executed as a lunatic since, they claim, despicably, he died in the end as a penitent catholic. Finally, with my good will, instead of a free will, I managed to get myself expelled out of La Salle high school. I vehemently refused to believe that God has always blessed His Sick Believers Asia Poch Suzara

Sinners and Criminals in the Philippines

Foreign countries like China, Singapore, Japan, Malaysia, Australia, Brunei, Vietnam, Taiwan, etc - the laws of such countries are respected and strictly enforced. It is no fun if one were a sinner or a criminal touring such countries. In the Philippines, however, the only Catholic country in Asia, where the laws of our land are not that respected nor seriously enforced, it is more fun if one were a sinner or a criminal as a tourist. Oh yes, indeed, the joys of Corruption as a way of daily life is more fun in the Philippines. Look at the main tourist attraction in the Philippines: the impeachment trial of the chief justice of the Supreme Court - a small fish compared to the bigger fishes hardly charged, arrested, tried in court, and incarcerated. The powers-that-be, however, are more occupied in protecting and defending the culture of corruption as blessed by God daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly in the Philippines. Ours, indeed, is the most corrupt nation in all of Asia. We Filipinos have even been educated to believe that a stupid man is more likely to be truthful than a man who is intelligent. And so, our government officials today acting as judges in the impeachment case against the top magistrate of our Republic - take advantage of our culture of corruption by pretending to be not as corrupt as the corrupt system of education has made them. It is the same old history. Our God-fearing politicians do not care about life in the next generation. They only care about the results of the next election. In the meantime, life in general among Filipinos in the Philippines can be characterized as the competition to be the criminal or be the victim of the criminals. God Bless the Philippines! Thank you Jesus! Poch Suzara
