Catholics Monks Behind the Knights of Rizal

Dear Manny Almario, Bob Bernardo, Would it too much to conclude that it was precisely catholic monks who organized the KNIGHTS OF RIZAL organization precisely to keep the real Rizal stay hidden away from the Filipinos as a people and as a nation? Indeed, to keep Rizal away from the world view to fully recognize him as a freethinker, atheist, freedom fighter, and a heretic? I have yet to hear one Knight of Rizal stand up and speak out loud and clear that compared to Jose Rizal, Jesus Christ was nothing but a Lilliputian! Something that a high-school expelled student already did in writing in this Jesus-freak country of ours - me - Poch Suzara

Our Freedom and Democracy Under God's Word

Aug. 6, 2012 Philippine Daily Inquirer Manila, Philippines Letter to the Editors GOD'S WORD The Catholic church hierarchy urged our lawmakers to listen to God's word. (PDI, Aug. 6,2012). Especially in dealing with the RH Bill - the much-needed legislation to hopefully improve the quality of Filipino life in general in our poor and backward only Christian country in Asia. According to the holy bible, however, here are those words from God. We Filipinos, no doubt, have been faithfully following such God's word ever since Christianity was introduced into our shores some 400 years ago: “If anyone comes to me and does not HATE father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such a person cannot be my disciple."Luke 14:26 "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to turn a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; a man's enemies will be the members of his own household.' Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me." Matt. 10:34-37 I said it before, I say it again: There was once upon a time when all men, women, and children throughout the world believed, followed, and obeyed God and the Catholic church ruled with absolute authority. Historians refer to it as the DARK AGES. In the Philippines today in this already 21st century - we Filipinos are still living in the DARK AGES! Look how the Catholic hierarchy still have much to say as what laws must not be legislated by our lawmakers. Our lawmakers feel a sense of sin against God if they do not follow and obey the moral authority of the Catholic church hierarchy in our country. In fact, we too, as a people, feel a sense of shame if we show more love for our country down here. We must only always show love for divinity up there. Freedom and democracy in the Philippines is hardly a national beauty. Thanks to church authority it continues to be a historical mockery against the growth of common Filipino decency as a people; and, against the development of the Philippines as a decent nation. Yours Sincerely, Poch Suzara San Lorenzo Village Makati, Philippines

The Religious War of GOOD against EVIL

"All religious systems enslave the mind. Certain things are demanded--certain things must be believed -- certain things must be done -- and the man who becomes the subject or servant of this superstition must give up all idea of individuality or hope of intellectual growth or progress." Robert G. Ingersoll Religion encourages stupidity and an insufficient sense of reality. Bertrand Russell Religious war against each other is not about GOOD versus EVIL; it has always been and still is about EVIL versus EVIL and EVIL has always won otherwise more popularly known as Christianity, Islam or Judaism - the organization for world-wide destruction and not the more desirable organization for world-wide cooperation via reconstruction.

For Those who Believe

"For those who believe, no explanation is necessary; for those who do not believe, no explanation is possible". Rev. Jaime Calero My response: In other words: DO NOT THINK. JUST BELIEVE. THINKING IS HARD. BELIEVING IS EASY. NEVER MIND THE QUESTIONS. JUST BELIEVE OUR ANSWERS. Just BELIEVE why we must continue to live in a world that's endlessly fucked spiritually, eternally fucked economically, perpetually fucked morally, and historically fucked politically - especially for the greater glory of divinity IN HELL always in cahoots with A FUCKING deviltry IN HEAVEN!

Foal and Vulgar Language while we Produce babies

“In a world of superstition, reason is blasphemy. In a world of cruelty, sympathy is a crime, and in a world of lies, truth is blasphemy.” - Robert G. Ingersoll If I may add, in the Philippines, poor as we are as a people, and backward as we are as nation - we produced 3 babies every minute of the day and night. It means 1.5 million babies added yearly to our population growing recklessly. Needlessly. Uncontrollably. In the meantime, as the Sick Man of Asia, each time we say to each other - LET'S KEEPING ON FUCKING IN ORDER TO PRODUCE MORE BABIES IN OUR POOR COUNTRY, ESPECIALLY FOR THE GLORY OF GOD IN HEAVEN - are we NOT using FOAL or VULGAR language that's more indecent to our already sick and indecent society? Poch Suzara

My Silly Vulgar Language

In school, my teachers always insulted my intelligence. This was some 60 years ago. Today it is still the same horror with teachers in school twisting the minds and mutilating the hearts of innocent children in school with prayers to believe in a lot of fantasy solutions to real problems. Problems that's keeping us spiritually poor as a people and morally bankrupt as a nation! Helen, my foal language on these pages is something petty, something amateurish, something that does no one any harm. On the other hand, indeed, the TRUTH hurts, but LIES are far more damaging and can last for a thousand years. Poch Suzara

I am Lover of Truth and a Freedom-fighter

I am 75 years old. Friends and relatives wonder why I am, as ever, still hostile against organized religion. Well, I am not friendly to disorganized religion either. As a lover of truth and fighter for freedom, I am against all forms of falsehood known as God, angels, devils, heaven or hell - the products of organized superstition. Such evils have always been historically powerful, influential, tax-exempt, and traditional in passing on to innocent Filipino children too young to defend themselves in schools, colleges, and universities. Well, old age, like any other age, is the time to struggle away from silly biblical revelation. It is time to be involved with intelligent evolution. Indeed, human life on this earth should be about the struggle for mankind to establish human decency locally and to enjoy terrestrial sanity globally. Indeed, to put away all that silly business of divinity in cahoots with deviltry. No doubt, it is a waste of time. I admit it is an impossible dream. But my dear reader, what about you - how do you waste your precious time? You are accomplishing WHAT in this God-forsaken world of ours? Brief, short, and fleeting as life is on this earth! I said it before, I say it again: instead of looking forward to a better life to come after death, it makes more sense to try and leave this world a better place than how we found it. Not in the material, but in the humanitarian sense. Otherwise, there will be no reason for our having lived. In the meantime, today may be the last day of my life. Whatever or however the case may be, I am, as always, still happy singing loud and clear - my favorite song: "For, what is a man, what has he got, if not himself then he has not, to say the things he truly feels, and not the words of one who knees, the record shows I took the blows, and did it MY WAY! It is, in this way, under down-to-earth inspiration that I continue to be a man of courage, vision, ambition, and revolution. I have more than enough reason to carry on my lifetime struggle against the evils of education, nay, biblical revelation that have made us sick as a people and insane as a nation! Poch Suzara

I love Free Thought. I hate Free Stupidity

"The total amount of suffering in the natural world is beyond all decent contemplation. For most animals, reality is a business of struggle, suffering and sudden death." Richard Dawkins Nevertheless, for my part, as an atheist, I have every respect for all the lower forms of animals existing in the natural world. They do not make me sick - they have no faith in God. None of them pray to God to forgive them of their sins and crimes. They are exempted. Animals do not believe in life after death with God in heaven; or believe in life after death with the devil in hell. I envy the animals. They are not pretentious nor are they frightened of silly mysteries in nature. They need to have no faith in any of the great religions keeping our world messy as ever. In the meantime, I love free thought. I hate free stupidity! I love questions. I hate the answers as in time the answers become obsolete. I love education. I hate indoctrination; especially the kind that made us believe that what is BIGGER, TALLER, WISER, and GREATER, is not our family, is not our country, is not even the whole of humanity down here - but a SILLY JEWISH GOD up there!

Jose Rizal Monument

Jose Rizal standing only as a monument at the Luneta? What a mediocre way to love, honor, and respect the greatest Filipino thinker who was publicly executed by his enemy - the Catholic church. The same church still in wealth, power, and authority over the minds and hearts of Filipinos today in the Philippines. Jose Rizal's monument should be standing not at Luneta, but erected inside our minds and hearts. His science and scientific way of thinking should be what our schools, colleges, and universities should be all about. What we have, instead, is a Jewish fellow known as Jesus Christ - believed to be the Savior of the Filipinos as a people and Savior of the Philippines as a nation. I said it before, I say it again: if we Filipinos continue to be aimless as a people, and rudderless as a nation - it is simply because Jose Rizal's creative way of thinking has never been included as a major part of the foundation of our system of education. Jose Rizal stated it briefly: "Via my country's prosperity, I would like the Filipino people to become worthy, noble, and honorable." In the meantime, you Jesus-freaks, we Filipinos have only become unworthy as a people. We have also become ignoble and corrupt as a nation! Poch Suzara

fuck the neighbors; save the animals

Before drowning by flooding to death every man, woman, and child in this world, except Noah and his family of 8 people, God shouted to Noah: "FUCK THE NEIGHBORS; SAVE THE ANIMALS!" I don't know about you religiously frightened saps. But as for me, I could never, ever again, believe, love, respect, worship, or adore such a monster otherwise more known as the Almighty, Just, Loving, Merciful, Most high, Most wise, Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent, Omniabsent, patient, Perfect, Supreme, and Infinite God.

The Jesus-freaks, Religious Saps of the Philippines

"The Lord sees not only how much we give, but also how much we keep." Philippine Star July 25, 2012 I don't know about the rest of you Jesus-freaks, religious saps, - still frightened of the Lord in this already 21st century. For my part, I see the Lord as one who has not as yet made good his claim that he is the Savior not only of the Filipinos as a people, but also the Savior of the Philippines as a nation. As if, to begin with, a Jewish character of some 2,000 years ago born in Judea has anything to do with Filipinos born and enslaved by Jesus Christ's followers and disciples in the Philippines since 400 year ago!

God as our Creator in his own Image and Likeness

As a little boy in school, I was told to believe that God created man in his own image and likeness. I did believe it as I was frightened to believe it. However, as I got to be older and seriously thought about it, I learned that when we are born, there are also some 20 billion kind of germs, bacteria, and viruses existing inside our body at birth while were coming out of mother's womb. These little monsters are out to destroy our bodies as they eat away our vital organs and thus, at the same time, destroying themselves thus insuring that the day we are born is also the day we begin to live in a dying body. I asked it before, I ask it again: those billions of little killer monsters existing inside our bodies - were they also gifted with a free will? And were they also created in the image and likeness of the same God? No kidding! Poch Suzara

Grandfather of Atheism of the Philippines

We Filipinos are a sick and a frightened people. 500 years of bible messages to love not this world, neither the things that are in this world have given us no sense of purpose as a people and, indeed, have given us no sense of direction as a nation. As for me, now 75 years old, I thank God that I am today known as the "grandfather of Atheism" of the Philippines - the only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century. Poch Suzara

St. Augustine - Bishop of Hippo

Augustine never loved his life, nor loved his country, nor even loved his neighbors. He loved only God. That is why the Church canonized him a saint for the Catholics to follow and emulate. Augustine writes: “There is another form of temptation, even more fraught with danger. This is the disease of curiosity. . . it is this which drives us to try to discover the secrets of nature, those secrets which are beyond our understanding, which can avail us nothing and which men should not wish to learn. . . In the immense forests, full of pitfalls and perils, I have drawn myself back, and pulled myself away from these thorns. In the midst of all these things which float unceasingly around me in everyday life, I am never surprised at any of them, and never captivated by my genuine desire to study them. . . I no longer dream of the stars.” In his great book - The Dragons of Eden, Scientist Carl Sagan wrote: - “the time of Augustine’s death, 430 A.D., marks the beginning of the Dark Ages in Europe.” I said it before, I say it again: in sainthood history, St Augustine was one of the greatest criminals against the growth of the human mind and against the cultivation of the human heart.

Endless Sick Prayers to a Sick God

The question I asked decades ago, I am still asking today: Is there hope for our country? Yes, with intelligent leaders! There will never be HOPE, however, if we just carry on endlessly with our sick prayers! After all, daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly - we Filipinos have not ceased to believe and to have faith in the power of prayer. Thus far, however, the result of our endless prayers is only that we must continue to pray endlessly. Indeed, as published recently in the Philippine Star newspaper, it states: "When it comes to prayer, don't hang up - hang on!" In the meantime, if God or Jesus answered our prayers to cure cancer, how come cancer is still a disease that afflicts our loved-ones? Indeed, if prayers were efficient or reliable all of us would stay young, healthy, intelligent, and rich in spirit. But we live sick in a sick society as we remain famous as the Sick Children of Asia - due to, if not because of our endless faith in the sick power behind our sick prayer. Poch Suzara

The Basic Evil Done to Filipino Children in School

The greatest evil done to us Filipinos during our formative years in school was the murder of our curious minds. Look how utterly incurious we are as a people, and how even more incurious we are as a nation. Indeed, we are all born ignorant, not stupid. We are made stupid by Catholic education. Especially in the Philippines where most of the existing schools, colleges, and universities are owned and operated by the Catholic church - it is one of the most highly profitable commercial enterprises existing in our country teaching us to be spiritually twisted as a people and to be morally distorted as a nation. In fact, to teach us that this world is just a transition to a better world to come after death with God in heaven while we take advantage of the forgiveness of sins and crimes by God at any time. In the meantime, show me a Filipino who has enjoyed his grade school, high school, and college years as a Catholic student and I will show you a Filipino who is shallow-minded, greedy, selfish, insane, corrupt, and has more faith in his prayers to a divinity than he loves to think and to work hard for the growth and development of his own country.

The Truth behind Science and the Lies Behind Religion

It is really a pity that a great many people have not been educated to cultivate the ability to doubt. After all, the invention of doubt has always been and still is far more luminous than the invention of fire? In the meantime, the aim and purpose of science is the perfection of the human race. The aim and purpose of religion, however, is the salvation of the minority and the damnation of majority. Indeed, religion has always been and still is a disgrace to the human race. Consider industrial greed and selfishness have provoked war, religious hatred and intolerance makes mutual effort for peace and harmony impossible; instead of standing together to fight aggression, it's about Catholics against Protestants, Jews against Muslims, Muslims against Buddhists, and Buddhists against Catholics - the vicious circle. Such is religion's contribution to the human civilization: division instead of union. And what is the source of it all these horrors? Misunderstood scriptures, oriental and occidental, written by superstitious primitives not millions of years ago when time and space began, but only 2,000 to 4,000 years ago when, for the sake of big business, a silly Jewish divinity gave birth to human stupidity to spread endlessly globally.

Christianity for Wealth and Power and Glory

When the missionaries came to Africa they had the Bible and we had the land. They said, 'Let us pray.' We closed our eyes. When we opened them we had the Bible and they had the land. Archbishop Desmond Tutu If I may add, the same thing happened in the Philippines when Christianity arrived during the 16th century. Except that today in this already 21st century, we only have the Christian bible, while our land, our schools, colleges, universities, not to mention our government, our media, including our souls, indeed, our very own existence belong to God up there while we Filipinos are supposed to hate each other down here!

God Not Acting Like a God in this world

If a God refuses to act like a God in this world here and now, why should such a God act like a real God only in the next world later? What’s the big deal about a FREE WILL, if, in the next world, what we will enjoy is the DEAD WILL of a DEAD BODY? The purpose driven life is based on a lot of religious hogwash. After all, the real meaning of life is that it stops. As an atheist, I care more about the future of MANKIND - the life of children and their children in this world. I do not give a hoot about the future of stupid souls after a stupid death to live again in the next stupid world only to have do more of the same old stupid bullshit - love, worship, and adore God and his son Jesus! - what a waste of precious time and energy!

Open Your Mind and heart to Change

Dalai Lama said: Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values. For my part, I say, open your mind and heart to change, especially by letting go of your silly values and childish beliefs that are useless, if not obsolete. They have been frightened into you during your formative years in school by religion in order to control your mind and heart from birth to death! Poch Suzara
