The Holy Bible - the greatest book for Atheism

The one and only book that I keep reading to keep me courageous, inspired, nourished, sustained, honest, truthful, as well as always makes me feel confident in my atheism is the book known as the holy bible. Isaac Asimov said it better: "Properly read, the bible is the most potent force for atheism ever conceived." --- Poch Suzara Google# Facebook# Twitter# Atheists#

God as the Redeemer of the Filipinos

If God never does anything more than redeem us, He has already done for more than we deserve. Phil Star, May 23, 2016... Oh God, my dear God, after more than 400 years of sick values and sick beliefs as inspired by the lies revealed in the sick bible, what else have you done for the Filipinos in the Philippines except to keep them sick and poor and aimless as a people; lost and frightened and directionless as a nation? - Poch Suzara Facebook# Twitter# Google# Atheists#

WOMEN AND THE BIBLE AND THE CHURCH

"The Bible and the church have been the greatest stumbling blocks in the way of woman's emancipation."--Elizabeth Cady Stanton My dear Elizabeth, I got news for you. The bible and the church have been and still are the greatest causes why we Filipinos have miserably failed to grow as a thinking people and why our country, the Philippines, has failed to develop with a high standard of living as a nation. As a matter of historical horror, millions of Filipinos today in this already 21st century are still praying daily to Jesus to return and save the Philippines. As if Jesus have ever fixed the troubles and problems of his own country that’s still a Jewish State today. Israel never got to be converted by Jesus into a Christian country.--- Poch Suzara Facebook# Twitter# Google# Atheists#

The Death Penalty as ONLY IN THE PHILIPPINES

The Death Penalty as only in the Philippines: In order to protect the human rights of millions of filthy-poor Filipinos, what must first be protected are the rights of the filthy-rich criminals as officials of the State and Church always in cahoots together. In the meantime, the deadliest of crimes in the Philippines is the crime of silence. The criminals as officials in government all love to protect each other’s crimes hardly legally considered as the crime of Negligence. For my part, I said it before, I say it again: Far more important than the Death Penalty revitalized in the Philippines should be the death of schools, colleges, universities, and seminaries. - The greatest of evil institutions producing yearly not only of sick criminals to be in government, but also especially the top evil producers of sick and filthy-rich criminals generating our sick beliefs and sick values! In the meantime, think of this horror: due to the forgiveness of sin and crime by God, these horrors learned via the sick system of education continue to make the Catholic church the richest and the most powerful of commercial enterprises historically existing as the real owners of the Philippines since the 16th century. - - - Poch Suzara Facebook# Twitter# Google#

The World is Full of Tragedies

The world is full of sick and insane tragedies. One of which is that millions of Americans died during the past wars here, there, and everywhere to make the world not safe, but to make AMERICA safe for a sick, rotten, and corrupt democracy. It is the same historical horror with the Philippines. Millions of Filipinos died during the past wars to keep Philippines safe for democracy, but the corrupt government officials have only been trying so hard, year in and year out, to make the Philippines sick with freedom as a people and corrupt with democracy as a nation.

Which or What God

Duterte can transform the Philippines, but only with the help from God! - - - Atty Batas Mauricio My dear Atty Mauricio, are you referring to the same old God who is never OMNI-PRESENT, only always OMNI-ABSENT? Even while his own son Jesus was being crucified on a cross, God was nowhere to be found. Jesus cried out loud: "MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN ME?" Matt 27:46 - - - Duterte, our new President, will transform FILIPINO life in the Philippines with the help from WHAT or WHICH GOD? - - - Atty Mauricio, are we to assume that He will be the same old God who declared in the bible: "I FORM THE LIGHT AND CREATE DARKNESS: I MAKE PEACE AND CREATE EVIL: I THE LORD DO THESE THINGS." Isaiah 45:7 - - - Don't you think it is time we throw such dark historical religious garbage out the window? In this way, we can begin to grow healthy as a people; and, begin to develop wealthy as a nation? - - - Must we FILIPINOS remain famous in the centuries yet to come specially with our daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly prayers as the SICK MAN OF ASIA?- - - Poch Suzara Google# Facebook# Twitter# Atheists#

We Filipinos are Sick as a People and Corrupt as a Nation

The endless supply of sick and corrupt politicians for our sick and corrupt government come mostly from a sick and corrupt system of education. Indeed, we are all born ignorant, not insane. We are insane by enrolling as students in grade school, high school, and college in the Philippines... Now college educated Filipinos in our forum today have not ceased belittling me because I intentionally got myself expelled out of La Salle high school some 65 years ago! And specially because ever since then I went on to educate myself. I enrolled as a lifetime student in the greatest of all universities - it is but a collection of books... I stopped wasting my time praying; I went on to daily, nightly, weekly, monthly, and yearly reading and more serious reading of great books written by the great thinkers of the world... I said it before, I say it again: our sick and corrupt system of education can be summarized briefly in this way: It is the historical institution of religious insanity always in cahoots with political stupidity as perpetually blessed by the holy trinity... Millions of you have been educated to believe that there are no atheist in foxholes. What you frightened religious morons should fear more is that there are no atheists in our sick and corrupt government!... In the meantime, think about it: Today, in this already 21st century, the sick and corrupt system of education continue to produce college educated men and women who, if they were fortunate enough find employment in foreign countries that enjoy honest and efficient government. No employment, however, are available for them in our own country that need economic growth and national development. ... That's how sick we Filipinos are as a people, and that's how corrupt we Filipinos are as a nation. --- Poch Suzara Google# Twitter# Atheists#

Another Sick Truth in the holy bible

After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God.--- Mark 16:19--- Come on you Mark, who you kidding? How would you know which side of God is His right hand since God is a spirit and has no hands?--- Poch Suzara Facebook# Google# Twitter# Atheists#

Jesus was an Abused Child by His own Father - God

“Any one hung on a tree is under God’s curse.” Deuteronomy 21:23… Well, this puts the Son of God Jesus in a mess because aside from being crucified on a cross, Jesus was also hung on a tree: “ Acts 5:30 clearly says: “ The God of our Fathers raised up Jesus, whom you slew and hanged on a tree.” … If Jesus was a curse in the eyes of His own Father, is this the reason why Jesus, crucified on the cross cried out loud: ‘MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAS THOU FORSAKEN ME:” Matt. 27:46... To think that God had forsaken his only begotten Son Jesus not only by getting him crucified on a cross, but also by getting him hanged on a tree. Well, how come no one has ever thought of charging God, the Father of Jesus, for child abuse in court? --- Poch Suzara Google# Facebook# Twitter# Atheist#

Why I am Never Afraid of the Word - ATHEIST

‘Respect for religion’ has become a code phrase meaning ‘fear of religion’. Religions, like all other ideas, deserve criticism, satire, and, yes, our fearless disrespect... Salman Rushdie I am told that we atheists should avoid identifying ourselves in public as atheists because most Filipino believers find the word "atheist" as something dirty, vulgar, and evil. That we must only identify ourselves as Humanists or that we are Freethinkers. So as not to shake, rattle, and roll - hurting the thoughtlessness of the sick believers who invented the word "atheist" to begin with! Well, for my part, I say that I am an ATHEIST and if you do not like the word ATHEIST - then that’s you problem, not mine! We atheists are honest thinkers. We do not care to be intimidated by the frightened or be threatened by the corrupt or childish believers. We atheists have no problem enjoying the greatest and the most wonderful of freedom - the freedom of expression... The truth hurts, but lies are far more damaging and can last for a thousand years... I am happy to inform you dear believers that when we atheists never tell lies to any of you. When we openly admit to you that we are atheists - we are telling you the truth. We have no reason whatsoever to be lying to any of you... Poch Suzara Google# Facebook# Twitter# Atheists#

It is Rarity to Be a Lifetime Student of the Greatest of All Universities

Don't start living tomorrow, tomorrow never arrives. Start working on your dreams and ambitions today.--- Anonymous --- I did so right after the day I finally got myself expelled out of high school at the age of 15. I immediately enrolled as a lifetime student in the greatest of all universities - it is but a collection of books; especially banned books. Today, as a senior citizen, happily, I am still a student of such a university.--- Poch Suzara Google# Facebook# Twitter# Atheist#

The Light of Science and the Darkness of Religion

There is a single light of science, and to brighten it anywhere is to brighten it everywhere... Isaac Asimov... Science is the exact opposite of religion. There is so much darkness to spread with religion; and it is usually accomplished by being traditionally mindless or by being habitually thoughtless. Such horrors have been what the sick system of education in the Philippines has been mostly about. Poch Suzara Facebook# Twitter# Google@ Atheist#

There is only Evil in this World

“Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?” -- Epicurus I form the light and create darkness: I make peace and create evil: I the Lord do these things. -- Isaiah 45:7 Each unfolding reality contains the seeds of its own destruction and the embryo of the new reality that will replace it. --- Jeremy Rifkin For my part, I said it before, I say it again: there is no such thing as the struggle between GOOD and EVIL. There is only the struggle of EVIL versus EVIL; and, in the end EVIL always wins. We even think of it as the choice from among the LESSER EVILS. Thus, for the most part, thanks to our sick system of education; indeed, thanks to our sick beliefs and sick values, we live in a sick society where evil prevails.-- Poch Suzara Google# Twitter# Facebook# Atheist#

Bertrand Russell - The One and Only Teacher I have ever loved, respected, and worshipped

After I got myself expelled out of high school, and started to build my own library of books, Bertrand Russell got to be my university and still is as ever since out of school, I embarked on self-education adventure. Bertrand Arthur William Russell (1872-1970) was a British philosopher, logician, essayist and social critic. He was best known for his work in mathematical logic and analytic philosophy. Together with G.E. Moore, Russell is generally recognized as one of the main founders of modern analytic philosophy. Together with Kurt Gödel, he is regularly credited with being one of the most important logicians of the twentieth century. Over the course of a long career, Russell also made contributions to a broad range of subjects, including the history of ideas, ethics, political and educational theory, and religious studies. General readers have benefited from his many popular writings on a wide variety of topics. After a life marked by controversy--including dismissals from both Trinity College, Cambridge, and City College, New York--Russell was awarded the Order of Merit in 1949 and the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1950. Noted also for his many spirited anti-nuclear protests and for his campaign against western involvement in the Vietnam War, Russell remained a prominent public figure until his death at the age of 97. - Poch Suzara Google# Facebook# Twitter#

A Great Post by Danding Gimenez and Carl Sagan

Here is Scientists Carl Sagan on Trees Powered by Sunlight “Human beings grew up in the forests; we have a natural affinity for them. How lovely a tree is, straining toward the sky. Its leaves harvest sunlight to photosynthesize, so trees compete by shadowing their neighbors. If you look closely, you can often see two trees pushing and shoving with languid grace. Trees are great and beautiful machines, powered by sunlight, taking in water from the ground and carbon dioxide from the air, converting these materials into food for their use and ours. The plant uses the carbohydrates it makes as an energy source to go about its planty business. And we animals, who are ultimately parasites on the plants, steal the carbohydrates so we can go about our business. In eating the plants we combine the carbohydrates with oxygen dissolved in our blood because of our penchant for breathing air, and so extract the energy that makes us go. In the process, we exhale carbon dioxide, which the plants then recycle to make more carbohydrates. What a marvelous cooperative arrangement - plants and animals each inhaling the other’s exhalations, a kind of planet-wide mutual mouth-to-stoma resuscitation, the entire elegant cycle powered by a star 150 million kilometers away.”

Here is Danding Gimenez on Trees Nourished by Worms There could hardly be trees or plants without the lowly worm. They help increase the amount of air and water needed by trees and plants. They break down organic matter into forms that trees and plants need for nutrition. Every square foot of soil has at least 10 to 20 worms. Half a million in an acre. They help turn the soil by bringing organic matter from the top and mixing with the soil below. They create tons of fertilizer and millions of passageways for air and soil equal to a 2,000 feet long 6-in pipe per acre. Worms are the solder that fuse lifeless soil with living plants. With this preamble I will discuss in clear metaphors how the ground below affects our lives. This is really a short essay on love. Love is a prime cause. It is the primary human creative force. A musician loves his music so much that he and his music become one. They are fused into one below the ground where their roots become so intertwined that it becomes impossible to separate one from the other. A pianist in performance does not show the thousands of practice hours that preceded the performance. A loving couple are still two above ground but their roots below the surface have fused. An artist so loves his art that he is indistinguishable from it. A scientist and his science are fused. Einstein and Relativity are one being. Not two. A craftsman and his craft become one. Poch and atheism are fused into one by their underground roots. One cannot think of Poch without also thinking of atheism. This fusion is the result of love. Love for a person or an idea or a principle. Those who see life this way understand that life and love are one and the same. They may look different above ground. But underneath, they are the same.“ My dear Danding Gimenez, what a great and truthful post. A great many thanks. This month I will be 80 years old and I deeply regret that I have had but a short, brief, fleeting life in my duty and responsibility to spread more beauty and more sanity behind atheism in our spiritually poor, morally bankrupt, God-forsaken country.

We Can Make the World Better

Everyone can do something to make the world better – we can let Christ shine through us. --- Phil Star March 29, 2016 Oh yes, we can do something to make better our world made sick and corrupt by our faith in religion. It has made us have more faith in our sick religious beliefs and corrupt values. In the meantime, if there were anything tragic that the Philippines should be saved from - it could only be the religion of Jesus - Christianity. It's the historical horror that keeps Filipinos spiritually poor as a people and morally bankrupt as a nation. --- Poch Suzara Google# Twitter# Facebook#

Most Men Love Impregnating. They Hate Thinking.

Most men never rise above viewing things as objects of their desires - hence their selfishness or worst, - their thoughtlessness; but to see and to treat things purely as objects of understanding is to rise to the joys of mental freedom. Thus most men hate thinking; they love impregnating. Happily, most men are good; unhappily, however, only good at praying to God especially as God is always in the business of forgiving sins and crimes in order to benefit God's priesthood industry that's always in need of money!..

The Evolution of the Mind Versus Sick Revelation in the Bible

"The man who views the world at 50 the same as he did at 20 has wasted 30 years of his life." --- Muhammad Ali At home and in school, the man who has been taught WHAT to believe, and not HOW to think is not a man, but a sick follower of sick values and sick beliefs! In the meantime, isn't it absurd to believe that God would only choose to save followers for heaven the faithful believers whose highest and only ambition is to be a sick and a frightened follower for the rest of eternity? For my part, I refuse to believe as truth such religious garbage; especially as they are usually referred to as dogma, pigma, and hogma. --- Poch Suzara Google# Twitter# Facebook#

The Bible Is Not Holy. It is Sickly - a Mockery of Humanity

Within the covers of the Bible are the answers for all the problems men face. - Ronald Reagan It is so glaringly obvious that Ronald Reagan never seriously read the bible from cover to cover. Otherwise, he never would have uttered such a silly statement like the bible has all the answers for all of the problems men face. Look at us Filipinos today in this already 21st century. Since the 16th century, We are still sick as the Sick Man of Asia trying to figure out which truth has been revealed in the bible! In the meantime, the Bible writers were sick historians, let alone sick messengers of sick messages from a sick God. Other Problems with the Bible: There are other reasons why the Bible should not be considered the word of God. They include, but are not limited to: the fact that we don't know who wrote most of it; the fact that much of it was written many years - and in some cases many centuries – after the events it purports to describe; its obscene passages; and its promises of eternal rewards for the ignorant and credulous and everlasting punishment for skeptics and investigators. Finally, the harm that the Bible causes in people's personal lives should be mentioned as a reason for rejecting the book. It's not uncommon to see media reports about Bible believers committing bizarre, injurious, and sometimes deadly acts. Some people use Bible verses to justify beating children, withholding medical treatment, handling snakes, drinking poison, chopping off body parts, plucking out eyes, driving out demons, withdrawing from the affairs of this world, renouncing the pleasures of life, and expecting the world to end. If the Bible were not viewed as God's word, these acts would occur much less often. Many compelling and morally sound reasons support the Humanist position that the Bible is not divinely inspired. Instead of being inerrant, the Bible has far more errors and immoral teachings than most other books. By treating this mistake-ridden book as the word of God, humanity has been led down many paths of error and misery throughout history. In too many ways, the Bible continues to produce such results. But in some cases, the errors caused by the Bible have been corrected and the harms have been stopped. This happened when a scientific approach was applied to problems. Science involves relying on reason, observation, experience, and compassion - rather than blindly accepting religious or secular dogma. We atheists reject the views of those who say the Bible has infallible answers to today’s problems. As Humanists know, science has proved to be a much better source for answers. -Research by: Poch Suzara
