Energy Can Never be Created or Destroyed
“Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be changed from one form to another.” - - - Albert Einstein
So when God inspired His authors to write in the holy bible - IN THE BEGINNING GOD CREATED THE HEAVEN AND EARTH -
in the beginning from which ENERGY? Or, to be more precise, if God created space and time, where was God located before
he created SPACE, and when was it before He created TIME. . . Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Respect For the Truth
I think we ought always to entertain our opinions with some measure of doubt. I shouldn't wish people dogmatically to believe any philosophy, not even mine. . . Bertrand Russell. . . Never have I ever heard from any of my teachers in La Salle grade school and
high school openly and proudly admit such respect for the search of the truth; especially as it is man's most noble of professions... Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#
H. L. Mencken on Religious Beliefs
H. L. Mencken’s Religious Beliefs
As for religion, I am quite devoid of it. Never, in my adult life, have I experienced anything that could be plausibly called a religious impulse. My father and grandfather were agnostics before me and, although I was sent to Sunday School as a boy and exposed to the Christian theology, I was never taught to believe it. My father thought that I should learn what it was, but it apparently never occurred to him that I would accept it. He was a good psychologist. What I got in Sunday School – beside a wide acquaintance with Christian hymnology – was, simply, a firm conviction that the Christian faith was full of palpable absurdities, and the Christian god preposterous. Since that time, I have read a great deal in theology – perhaps much more than the average clergyman – but I have never discovered any reason to change my mind.
The act of worship, as carried on by Christians, seems, to me, to be debasing rather than ennobling. It involves grovelling before a Deity who, if He really exists, deserves to be denounced instead of respected. I see little evidence, in this world, of the so-called goodness of God. On the contrary, it seems to me that, on the strength of His daily acts, He must be set down a most cruel, stupid, and villainous fellow. I can say this with a clear conscience, for He has treated me very well – in fact, with vast politeness. But, I can’t help thinking of His barbaric torture of most of the rest of humanity. I simply can’t imagine revering the God of war and politics, theology and cancer.
I do not believe in immortality and have no desire for it. The belief in it issues from the puerile egos of inferior men. In its Christian form, it is little more than a device for getting revenge upon those who are having a better time on this earth. What the meaning of human life may be, I don’t know: I incline to suspect that it has none. All I know about it is that, to me at least, it is very amusing, while it lasts. Even its troubles, indeed, can be amusing. Moreover, they tend to foster the human qualities that I admire most – courage, and its analogues. The noblest man, I think, is that one who fights God and triumphs over Him. I have had little of this to do. When I die, I shall be content to vanish into nothingness. No show, however good, could conceivably be good forever. – an extract from a letter H. L. Mencken wrote to Will Durant in 1931. The letter was published in On the Meaning of Life, edited by Will Durant (New York: Ray Long and Richard R. Smith, 1932).
In 1931, Will Durant asked various public figures to contribute their opinions on the meaning of life, as they understood it. Their responses were published in the volume documented above.
H. L. Mencken (1880-1956) was a journalist, literary and social critic, and author.
Will Durant (1885-1981) was a historian of Western Civilization and author... Poch Suzara

Character Versus Faithful Believers
"Character is the sum total of all our thought, words, and deed." ... Philippine Star, July 20,2015... Character is what schools, colleges, and universities produce. However, in the Philippines, under a sick system of education, what is more produced is not character, but faithful believers - the sum of total of all that can be described as the combination of mediocrity, stupidity, and insanity for the sake of maintaining and supporting Christianity!

The Merger of the Evils of Communism and the Evil of Capitalism in China
The way to combat Communism is not war. What is needed in addition to such armaments as will deter Communists from attacking the West, is a diminution of the grounds for discontent in the less prosperous parts of the non-communist world. Communism is a doctrine bred of poverty, hatred and strife. Its spread can only be arrested by diminishing the area of poverty and hatred. . . . Bertrand Russell, Portraits From Memory And Other Essays, 1952. . . Oh my dear Bertrand Russell, surprisingly, Communism has been arrested due to, if not because of the guts and gumption, indeed, the rarity of human intelligence shown by the Chinese thinking government leadership: they managed to perform the greatest miracle in the world ever: they merged the evils of communism and the evils of capitalism together. China is the richest and most powerful economy in the world today. Almost 90 per cent of products consume by the whole wide world today is made in China! And to think ATHEISM is most prevalent in China as she has been an atheist nation since the 11th century!. . . Poch Suzara, Thoughts to provoke Your Thoughts, 2015... Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Filipinos can Never Afford to be Atheists
The Filipinos will never reject God or will ever deny His existence. Not in a million years. We Filipinos need God to forgive us of our sins and our crimes. No doubt, after the forgiveness of our sins and crimes, there is also the promise of a reward more known as "eternal salvation in heaven." All if takes to win it is MONEY. Lots of MONEY!
The Farce of the Law in the Philippines
There is no such thing as the force of the law in the Philippines. There is only the farce of the law; specially as enforced by corrupt lawmakers legally defended and protected in court by the corrupt Filipino lawyers in cahoots with corrupt judges in court. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#
The Flexibility of the Man's Mind
“Man's mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimensions.” - Oliver Wendell Holmes --- As for me, I repeat: after having discovered the sanity and the beauty behind atheism, never, could I have ever, all over again, embrace the insanity or the childish pomposity behind theism. In the truest sense of the phrase: I would rather be a born-again atheist. Indeed, no child is born a Catholic or Muslim or Jew or Hinduist. All babies are born as atheists - without religion!- Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

A Life of Fear versus a Life of Courage
The idea of life in general in the Philippines as we are products of schools, colleges, and universities is to live a life of fear. Show to your friends, relatives, and associates that you would rather live a life of courage is something of a scandal, a horror, or a sin against God... Indeed, one of the greatest joys in life is to think what most people say you should never think about. But here's one tragedy in life most thoughtless people do not realize: if you do not build your own dreams, someone else will hire you to build theirs. --- Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Jesus was Not a catholic nor His Apostles were Christians
When Jesus called his 12 apostles together, he gave them power and authority to drive out all demons and to cure diseases, and he sent them out to preach the kingdom of God and to heal the sick. Luke 9:1. . . Also, Jesus commissioned his disciples to "make disciples of all nation." Matt. 28:29. . . So how come the land where Jesus was born is still today not a catholic nor a Christian country? It is still a Jewish State. Indeed, I further asked: how come in the whole of Asia, only the Philippines got to be converted by the apostles of Jesus to be the only Catholic country in Asia, but not all Filipinos got be baptized Catholics. But with the power from Jesus, as the Son of God - how come we Filipinos have never been healed, specially as we are still famous as the SICK MAN OF ASIA? Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

What About Improving the standard of thinking of the Filipinos as a Poeple
Notice our sick and corrupt politicians as officials in the government. All you hear from them is about the economy - how it should improve or it is already improving or that we need to improve the economy. Never, do we ever, hear from any of these college educated morons about improving Filipino standard of thinking to enjoy more self-respect as a people and to enjoy more dignity as a nation. In the meantime, daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly way of life in the Philippines in general can be described as the Filipinos always in competition to be the criminal or be the victim of the criminals...

Begin with Stupidity
"If we begin with certainties, we shall end in doubts but if we begin with doubts, and we are patient in them, we shall end in certainties." . . . Francis Bacon . . . Oh my dear Francis Bacon, in the schools, colleges, and universities in the Philippines,
sorry to say, we do not begin with certainties. We begin with stupidity and end up even more stupid; specially for the doubtful
glory of God and His Son Jesus in heaven... Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

NOTHING IS RIGHT. EVERYTHING IS WRONG
Anything you do in this life in this world, enjoy it. Be happy; especially by making others also happy. In the end, no matter what you do or do not do, it will turn out to wrong anyway. Bobby Regala... I entirely agree with my friend Bobby Regala - one of the few friends I could not help but respect and admire. He was a courageous thinker; not a frightened believer... Indeed, if each unfolding reality contains the seeds of its own destruction, and the embryo of the new reality that will replace it - why and how could anything be right in the first place? No one can escape the law of birth, growth, death, and decay?...One must be a sort of a clown to believe that just because there is suffering in this life, there must be a better life to come after death. If there were life after death, with what eyes shall we see? With what ears shall we hear? With what palate shall we taste? With what nose shall we smell? with what skin shall we feel? With what brain shall be think? With what sexual organ shall we enjoy sex with an equally dead vagina? Poch Suzara twitter# Facebook# Google#
Nonsense Books and Clever Books
Nine-tenths of the existing books are nonsense and the clever books are the refutation of that nonsense... Benjamin Disraeli . . .

Recycling Garbage and Trash
Other Asian non-catholic countries are way ahead in the profitable business of recycling garbage and trash.

OUR COUNTRY'S TROUBLES AND PROBLEMS
Self-deception is the worst tragedy of the Filipinos as a people. - Prof. Teodoro A. Agoncillo, Historian
For my part, as a high expelled student student of some 65 years ago, I say: schools, colleges, and universities as own and operated tax free by the Catholic church pretty much explain why we Filipinos in this already 21st century are still spiritually poor and aimless as a people; still morally backward and rudderless as a nation.
There is no such thing as GOOD verses EVIL in the Philippines. There is only EVIL versus EVIL and EVIL is always winning. Thanks to our sick and corrupt and college-educated officials in charge of the CHURCH always in cahoots with the sick and corrupt and college-educated officials in charge of the STATE. . .

Why I Thank God I am an Atheist
For my part, I thank God that I am an atheist only because I am fully aware that God himself is also an atheist. Indeed, God has no religion. Well, we atheists have no religion too. Do any of you really believe that if God believed in the existence of other Gods, he would bother to write in His first command: "THOU SHALT HAVE NO OTHER GODS BEFORE ME!" ... "Obviously God recognized the existence of other Gods and he did not want the rest of you frightened saps to believe in the existence of such Gods! It is all about a sick supernatural mess, isn't it? ... In the meantime, please get to know your own bible. In Luke 1:37, it clearly states: FOR WITH GOD, NOTHING SHALL BE IMPOSSIBLE." ... Well, how come God always found it impossible to get me excommunicated out of the Catholic church so that I could be a happy and a proud ATHEIST! I had to excommunicate myself out of the mess!. . .

WOW GOD LOVES TO PLAY MORE GAMES
"We serve God by sharing His words with others." ... Philippine Star, July 3, 2015 . . .If God were already existing here, existing there, and existing everywhere why should God need us to share His words with others? On the other hand, God need us to share His words with others only because God would rather be only OMNI-ABSENT, as God does not give a hoot to be OMNI-PRESENT!...
