Only 144,000 will be Chosen

If God created man gifted with a free will, and free will have turned out to be just as messy as divine will, then maybe God should have already ceased creating man in his own image and likeness. After all, according to the bible, in the end, “the many are called, but only the few are chosen.” Well, according to the bible, only 144,000 will be the chosen ones, all of them Jews. NO mention of Pinoys or Pinays to be included.

And to think that more than 100 BILLION people have already lived and died on this earth since the days of Adam and Eve created naked together with their pet snake, a Talking Serpent - created also naked but gifted too with free will by God! Poch Suzara

Fuck Dying, Fuck Death

“Freedom of religion includes freedom from religion . . . Why don't we celebrate living, instead of worrying about damnation and sin?” Ed Schempp, acceptance speech as Humanist of the Year, awarded by The American Humanist Association, 1996 If I may add, indeed, why even worry about dying since the day we are born in this world is the day we begin to live in a dying body! Short, brief, and fleeting as human life is on this piece of dust called "earth" floating aimlessly in space and going no where in time? In the meantime, if we must leave this world one day, let try to leave this world as a better place than how we originally found it. Not necessarily in the material, but in the humanitarian sense.

Who or what Creator

Which creation story do you believe written in the holy bible: the one starting at Genesis 1:1 and ending at Genesis 1:31 or do you believe the other creation story at Genesis 2:4 through 25? Since they are different from each other, why bother to believe either story? Since there is a third story!

In his BRIEF HISTORY OF TIME, Scientists Stephen Hawking wrote: "So long as the universe had a beginning, we could suppose it had a creator. But if the universe is really completely self-contained, having no boundary or edge, it would have neither
a beginning nor end: It would simply be. What place, then, for a creator?" Poch Suzara

A Joke Among the Pinoys

A joke among the Pinoys is a face-saving device to avoid the more painful thought of having to laugh at just how broke we are as people culturally, socially, politically,
economically, religiously, indeed, historically. Poch Suzara

Fuck Satan

"But who prays for Satan? Who in eighteen centuries, has had the common humanity to pray for the one sinner that needed it most?" --- Mark Twain

Our Good for Nothing Politicians

If experience teaches us anything at all, it teaches us this: that a good politician,
under democracy, is quite unthinkable as an honest thief. H. L. Mencken

If I may add, in the Philippines, under our democracy, and due to the horrors of our formative years in grade school, then high school, then college - our politicians are all good; unfortunately, for growth as a people and for maturity as a nation - good for nothing; especially for the glory of God in heaven.

What I Resent Even more Bitterly

"Imagine the people who believe such things and who are not ashamed to ignore, totally, all the patient findings of thinking minds through all the centuries since the Bible was written. And it is these ignorant people, the most uneducated, the most unimaginative, the most unthinking among us, who would make themselves the guides and leaders of us all; who would force their feeble and childish beliefs on us; who would invade our schools and libraries and homes. I personally resent it bitterly." Isaac Asimov. Oh my dear Asimov, this is what I personally resent even more bitterly: the atheists always afraid to take a stand against harm. They are afraid because their wives or mothers, sons or daughters, friends and relatives and other business associates will discover that they are in fact more well-read, more well-informed, and, indeed, more well- educated. And so, like a bunch of polite cowards, they hide their intelligence inside the closet. They would rather allow human stupidity to go marching on and on giving religion more power to endlessly support historical insanity. I said it before, I say it again: we atheists have nothing to fear. After all, we have something precious in common with scientists together. We think it most noble in this life to shatter false beliefs, false values, and false teachings. Indeed, atheists are not destroyers of the world. Scientists are not the conquerors of the world. We are the thinkers and the liberators of humankind in this world. Poch Suzara

Lonely People, Alvin Toffler, and Bertrand Russell

"The hurt of being alone, is , of course, hardly new. But loneliness is now so widespread it has become, paradoxically, a shared experience. . . They hunger for institutions worthy of their respect, affection, and loyalty. . .For lonely people, cults offer, in the beginning, indiscriminate friendship . . . A cult, however, sells community, structure, and meaning at any extremely high price: the mindless surrender of the self. For some, no doubt this is the only alternative to personal disintegration. But for most of us the cult's way out is too costly." Alvin Toffler, author, The Third Wave My mentor - Bertrand Russell, as a lonely man during his younger years, had a creative way out. He searched for the truth via mathematics, philosophy, logic, science, physics, sociology, anthropology, history, war, peace, and in the human family. But unlike many great and lonely people, however, Bertrand Russell cultivated a rather self-conscious sensitivity to the troubles of others. Bertrand Russell wrote: "The good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. What the world needs now is not only love but the greater knowledge about the nature of love, in all its complexity." For my part, as a happily and creatively lonely man myself, more than Jesus and his apostles in hell, more than all the saints blessed together by God in heaven - I'd rather have more love, more respect, more loyalty, and more admiration for Bertrand Russell. He encouraged me to QUESTION EVERYTHING including his logic, mathematics, indeed - his philosophy. As he wrote it himself: "Truth is a shinning goddess, always veiled, always distant, never wholly approachable, but worthy of all the devotion of which the human spirit is capable." Poch Suzara

God Forsaking Himself on the Cross

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16

If this were true, how come God's only begotten Son, crucified on a cross by
a bunch of lunatics, Jesus cried out loud: "MY GOD, MY GOD WHY HAS THOU FORSAKEN ME?" Mark 15:34

Is this an example of a Revealed Truth: God so loved the world but that he
couldn't care less about his only begotten son Jesus being bullied on the cross
by a gang of lunatics?

In the meantime, Jesus declares in John 10:30 -“I and the Father are one.” I asked it before, I ask it again: was it the greatest miracle ever - God crucified on the cross able to forsake himself? Poch Suzara

Bribery and Vote Market

Far more destructive than the bribe-giver is not only the bribe-taker, but also the bribe-fixer. It is one of the courses offered in Catholic universities. Of course it is not called "bribery." It has a more sophisticated term. It is more known as "college degrees." Then we also have such business ventures like vote buying and vote selling in the vote market arena. It is more known as "general elections" to prove that there exist freedom and democracy in our blessed by God country historically proud of Christianity. Poch Suzara

Successful Failure in Life

Success is what most people settle for when they cannot think of something great or noble enough to be failing at. As for me, since I am always in search of the truth, I do not mind at all that I am such a failure in life. Although I am, indeed, happy and proud to be a successful failure

Meanwhile, with most people, they would rather have faith in deadly revelation. As for me, however, I would rather be on the side of lively evolution. Especially the
evolution of the human mind and heart. Poch Suzara

Our Sick Population - A Growing Problem

According to a recent survey done by SWS (Social Weather Survey) 9.2 MILLION FILIPINOS LOST THEIR JOBS DURING THE LAST 3 MONTHS.

In another report published in the Philippine Star a week ago, seven (7) MILLION FILIPINOS AS RECENT COLLEGE GRADUATES ARE LOOKING FOR EMPLOYMENT HERE AND ABROAD.

In the meantime, we are often told by the religious morons of our sick and corrupt society - that we really have no growing population problem in the Philippines because, eventually, GOD WILL PROVIDE! Poch Suzara

Jose Rizal and Pope Leo X111

"The death sentence is a necessary and efficacious means for the church to attain its ends when obstinate heretics disturb the ecclesiastical order." Pope Leo X111 ( Vincenzo Pecci ) Italian Pope 1878-1903 If I may add, the arrest, incarceration, and public execution of our Jose Rizal in 1896 was precisely one necessary and efficacious means of the church in maintaining ecclesiastical order in the Philippines. The church even lied to its teeth. She continues to teach via its schools, colleges, and universities that hours before Rizal was shot to death, he "retracted." Thus, he died not as a heretic but as a penitent Catholic. Oh yes, already dead, Jose Rizal was never given a Catholic burial. His corpse was just put inside an old sack and then brought and thrown into a hole inside Paco Cemetery. Ineed, how come Rizal a DEAD CATHOLIC was not given proper CATHOLIC BURIAL? In the meantime, millions upon millions of us Filipinos would rather look up with love and respect and adoration a Jewish savior known as Jesus Christ. We hardly care to discover the first Filipino scientist, freedom fighter, and first humanist writer known as Dr. Jose Rizal - first and only Filipino hero who struggled against the evils of Christianity still in moral and spiritual authority over millions of Filipinos in the Philippines today!

James as One Inspired bible Author of God

"Draw close to God, and He will draw close to you." James 4:8

As a judicious reader of the bible, am I to conclude that this religious moron, one of the inspired bible authors of God, was never inspired to already believe that God is omniscient - that God is already here, is already there, and is already everywhere? Poch Suzara

The Forgiveness of Corruption by God

There is corruption among the rich. There is corruption among the poor. Now it is difficult to say who among the rich and who among the poor is not as corrupt as the rest of us. One thing, however, we can all find easy to agree with. Corruption as a way of life in our corrupt society can only be the corrupt result of our corrupt system of education. After all, it is only in our schools, colleges, and universities where we are taught to believe and to have faith in the teachings of our church: that no matter what, there is always available at the any time from God - the forgiveness of our sins and crimes. Indeed, especially the forgiveness of corruption as the basis of our way of daily life in this only Catholic country in Asia. All we need to do is to repent. And we are assured that we can continue to commit more sins and more crimes in the days ahead. Indeed, notice the merry-go-round of sins and crimes in our poor and backward country that even God is fed up with the sick nonsense! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Christianity - the Real Mess in the Philippines

If Christianity has miserably failed to straighten out the mess in this world given more than 2,000 years of opportunities, how could Christianity not also fail miserably to straighten out the mess in the Philippines given more than 400 years of opportunities? Well, not surprisingly, the truth has finally emerged. It turns out that the mess in this world and the mess in the Philippines got messier because of the lies and deceptions more known as "Christianity" to begin with. In this already 21st century, it is time for Christianity to clean up its own mess... She should stop pretending that she has Jesus as the way, the life, and the truth on her side. Indeed, as a matter of historical fact, THE GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD IS A LIE: Jesus as the Savior of the world was failure and a loser! Indeed, crucified on a cross, Jesus should have acted as his own Savior to begin with and NOT cry out loud: MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN ME? Poch Suzara

War against Christianity

The trouble with the war against poverty is that there seems to be no end to it. Human misery is never defeated. In fact, thanks to the pretentious drama of the rich Filipinos waging a so-called war against poverty – poor people of our country are multiplying and replenishing at the rate of almost two million babies yearly. Thanks
to Catholic teachings via its schools, such as: “blessed are the poor in spirit, for they shall inherit the kingdom of God.”

I said it before, I say it again: it is time, for the sake of the economy, and especially for the sake of the environment and social sanity, that we should, instead, wage a silly war not against poverty, but a serious war against the teachings of the Catholic church that continues to maintain the wealth, power,
in the Philippines for the sake of Christianity. Poch Suzara

Blessed By God and Lucifer

The bible tells us that Lucifer was expelled out of heaven. Could any of you bible scholars - explain what in hell was Lucifer doing with God in the heaven to begin with? And where in hell did Lucifer's angels come from? Who created Lucifer and his angels so much feared by a frightened Filipinos more known as the Sick Man of Asia? In the meantime, I ask you dear reader - have you ever met any one in this God-forsaken world of ours who has been blessed by God, and in turn, has also been blesed by Lucifer as both have always been partners and always in cahoots together? Poch Suzara

The Sick Man of Asia as an Open Truth

I am told by bible experts that God allows the Truth to be hidden, Except to the Elect, for now.

Well, if this were, how come the Son of God Jesus openly and publicly bragged: I AM THE WAY, THE LIFE, AND THE TRUTH? And to think that this is the same Jesus who also gave power and authority to his apostles to cure diseases as they spread the Word of God throughout the world.

In the Philippines today, the only Jesus freak country in Asia - we Filipinos still feel so blessed by Jesus as we are still corrupt as ever still famous as the SICK MAN OF ASIA. Poch Suzara

The Evils of Christianity and its Teachings

"Millions of innocent men, women, and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burned, tortured, fined and imprisoned; yet we have not advanced one inch toward uniformity. What has been the effect of coercion? To make one half of the world fools and the other half hypocrites. To support roguery and error all over the earth. THOMAS JEFFERSON If I may add, in the Philippines, only the esoteric few are fully aware that our Jose Rizal, aside from being our national hero, was also the greatest heretic our country has ever produced. Indeed, Jose Rizal was arrested, incarcerated, and publicly executed by the greatest enemy of the Philippines then and now - Christianity and its teachings. As I am myself a publicly-declared and openly-avowed Filipino heretic, I say to Jose Rizal, wherever you are - my dear sir: I dare admit that your destroyer - our enemy - Christianity is still pretty much with us. More powerful and harmful than ever. Still in authority teaching us Filipinos to be faithless to our growth as a people; and, indeed, to be faithless to our development as a nation. Only to be faithful to the Jewish Son of God Jesus - the redeemer of Filipinos, and the Savior of the Philippines. Poch Suzara Twitter# Google# Facebook# Atheist#
