The Endless Source of Filth in our Sick Country

THE significance of health and sanitation cannot be taken for granted in a decent society. Every civilization stresses the importance of cleanliness. Historically, cleanliness has been considered one of the important factors by which to judge whether a nation enjoys civilization or more at home with superstition. Waste management is the collection, transport, processing or disposal, managing and monitoring of waste materials. The term usually relates to materials produced by human activity, and the process is generally undertaken to reduce their effect on health, the environment or aesthetics, and indeed, to maintain and support the Tourism Industry. I said it before, I say it again: we are not orderly as a people. We are filthy as a nation. Look how we only dream over the prospect, but never get down to brass tacks in the task of cleaning the filth off in the Pasig river, Laguna De Bay, and Manila Bay. Not to mention also cleaning the mess off our bus stations and train stations; towns, barrios, and cities; public parks; police stations; bus and train stations; airports, harbors, and piers; keeping clean our public markets and public toilet facilities. Not to mention cleaning the filth behind our sick religion and sick politics in our country. Not by praying daily and nightly, but planting flower plants and re-planting cut down trees have yet to take serious roots as a part of our culture, custom, and tradition. In the meantime, we have yet to get real as to why we must, first and foremost, clean the dirt off our minds and the filth off our hearts. Especially in facing and dealing with the real source as to where the dirt and filth everywhere in our sick society comes from. After all, everything that is messy and dirty around us everywhere is the exact reflection of what we Filipinos learn from schools, colleges, and universities. Aside from a green revolution, what we need, however, is the revolution of our minds and hearts. Indeed, dirt that comes from our dirty system of education! Our schools, colleges, and universities are neither clean nor organized as educational institutions. They hardly teach the values of cleanliness in public, or the beauty of orderliness as a Republic. They are just commercial enterprises established only to make money, tons of money. Well, if the monies made have turned out to be dirty too - our officials in the government are just happy and proud and grateful to grab it for their own pockets. In the meantime, I should wish to ask our Secretary of Education Christian Brother Fermin Ilustre: Sir, when will you start doing your job in cleaning up the traditional Catholic mess out of our sick system of education! A nation cannot be radically reformed except by a radical reform of its values and beliefs as taught in schools, colleges, and universities! ... Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Only in Asia

In China, the Chinese love China. In Japan, the Japanese love Japan. In Thailand, the Thais love Thailand. In Malaysia, the Malaysians love Malaysia. In Vietnam, the vIetnamese love Vietnam. In Cambodia, the Cambodians love Cambodia. In Korea, the Koreans love Korea. In Singapore, the Singaporeans love Singapore. In Indonesia, the Indonesians love Indonesia. In Taiwan, the Taiwanese love Taiwan. In Laos, the Laotians love Laos. In Bangladesh, the Bangladeshis love Bangladesh. In the Philippines, however, the only Catholic country in Asia since 400 years ago, the Filipinos do not love the Philippines, but love only its Savior - Jesus, who was born as a Jew in a Jewish Land that was never converted to be a Catholic country. It is still today a Jewish State. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Saint John Baptist de La Salle

To touch the hearts of your pupils and to inspire them with the Christian spirit is the greatest miracle you can perform, and one which God expects of you." - Saint John Baptist de La Salle . . . Oh my dear Saint John Baptist de La Salle, what about touching also the hearts and minds of your pupils in school with the human spirit: to learn how to love each other, how to love our family, how to love the human community, and indeed, how to love our country down here? Isn't the endless fight of the holy spirit against the evil spirit all based a lot of childish nonsense? In the Philippines, most, if not all of the men and women with college education from La Salle university know only how to love God up there; especially by hating our country down here. Otherwise more known as the "Christian spirit." For my part, I am most proud and happy that I got expelled out of la Salle high school some 65 years ago... It is, in this way, that on my own initiative, I have learned to stop having faith in human stupidity. I have learned to stop loving Christianity. I learned to dump all of my useless love, needless respect, and mindless admiration for a silly divinity up out there. I only love my country down here. - Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Education is Far More Precious than Indocrination

No doubt, the key to our spiritual growth as a people and to our scientific development as a nation is via "education." Unfortunately, what we acquire in the Philippines is not "education," but "sick indoctrination." Indeed, schools, colleges, and universities are Catholic establishments where we learn to love not our family, to love not our country, and indeed, to love not humanity down here; but learn only how to love a sick divinity existing somewhere up out there. Is it any wonder that most men and women, even boys and girls, in our country, do not enjoy the freedom of thinking? but enjoy only the freedom of fucking. We produce three babies every minute of the day and night; or, 180 babies every hour; or, 4,320 babies every day; or, 129,600 babies every month; or, 1,555,200 million babies yearly! After our women deliver daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly - babies to inhabit our poor and backward country, our men have also been indoctrinated to openly and publicly declare that "WE ARE PROUD FATHERS!" In the meantime, millions of the nation's children live off garbage in the streets of our major cities. We are even indoctrinated to believe that God has always loved us Filipinos and has always blessed the Philippines for being the only Catholic country in Asia since the 16th century. In the meantime, I asked it before, I ask it again: What value has our freedom of expression if, as children in schools, colleges, and universities - we are never taught to value the free play of free thought inside or outside, in front or in the back, below or on top - the playful arena of free ideas? Indeed, what value has the freedom of expression if we are never encouraged to question, for example, the destructive influence of sacred beliefs, parental prejudices, or even to challenge the validity of ecclesiastical authority? For my part, I always enjoy the freedom to make mistakes or, more to the point, - the freedom to be able to learn from my mistakes. In this way, I will always, to the end of my days, embrace the freedom of expression as one of life’s most precious of freedoms. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The Horror that is America is Disgusting

US soldier Bowe Bergdahl 'was disgusted with Afghan war and ashamed to be American' Sgt Bowe Bergdahl, a US soldier being held prisoner by the Taliban after disappearing from his base had told his parents he was disgusted with the Afghan war and ashamed to be American. A United States soldier being held prisoner by the Taliban after disappearing from his base had told his parents he was disgusted with the Afghan war and ashamed to be American. Sgt Bergdahl criticised his superiors, calling his battalion commander a "conceited old fool", By Ben Farmer, Kabul Sgt Bowe Bergdahl, now 26, has been held for almost three years and is the only American soldier held by the insurgents, after going missing in a south eastern province of Afghanistan. The American military has never detailed the events of his disappearance, but there were reports at the time that he had just walked off his base in Paktika province after completing a guard shift. His family, from Hailey in Idaho, have now released an email he sent days before his disappearance in which he spoke of his disillusion with the American military. "The future is too good to waste on lies," he wrote in the email obtained by Rolling Stone magazine. "And life is way too short to care for the damnation of others, as well as to spend it helping fools with their ideas that are wrong. I have seen their ideas and I am ashamed to even be American. The horror of the self-righteous arrogance that they thrive in. It is all revolting." Sgt Bergdahl criticised his superiors, calling his battalion commander a "conceited old fool", and said the American army was composed of "liars, back-stabbers, fools, and bullies". He concluded by saying: "I am sorry for everything. The horror that is America is disgusting." His disappearance triggered an intense manhunt as troops were pulled off planned operations to search for him. At the time, Afghan officers taking part in the search said they had been told Sgt Bergdahl had suffered some form of breakdown. A Taliban statement said he had been captured after falling behind on a patrol. He is not classified as a deserter and is listed as "missing-captured." Since his capture, he has appeared in a number of hostage videos released by the Taliban, in which he has pleaded for his release. He is believed to be held in northwestern Pakistan. His parents have recently begun giving interviews about their son's imprisonment after becoming frustrated with the failure of official efforts to free him. American officials had tried to broker his freedom in a swap for five Taliban leaders currently held in Guantánamo Bay US military prison in Cuba. The transfer had been conceived as a "confidence building measure" to kick start wider talks between the enemies to find a political settlement to the conflict. The initiative appears to have stalled in the face of opposition in Congress to concessions to the Taliban. Meanwhile the number of American troops who have died in the decade-long conflict on Thursday passed 2,000 according to the icasualties website, which compiles casualty figures. Oh my dear US soldier Bowe Bergdahl, thank you for being honest, truthful, and courageous in the real sense of the word. You are, indeed, a rare and a great American. I salute you. If only there were more of you as American citizens - there will be peace, sanity, and tranquility in this world of ours! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

How to Heal Yourself Through Visualization. Seminar by Jaime T. Licauco June 7, 2014... Oh my dear Jaime T.

Even in and then out of the hospital cured of a disease, we are still dying whether we like it or not... Sir, the day we are born is the day we begin to live in a dying body.

J.K. Rowling, Author of Harry Potter

J.K. Rowling is no longer a billionaire. . . The billionaires club has hit J.K. Rowling with a banishing spell. According to the newly updated Forbes Rich List, the Harry Potter author has gone from billionaire to millionaire (several hundred times over, of course). She apparently broke a few rules of how to stay rich by giving away a lot of her fortune — reportedly $160 million of it — to charity and by paying her top-rung British taxes. There’s no way that the socially minded Rowling, who once lived on welfare, gives two Quaffles about her standing on the list, and no one should shed a tear over a stratospherically rich woman becoming slightly less so. But I always liked knowing that an author of imaginative, timeless, honest-to-goodness books became a billionaire. On the contrary, J.K. rowling is far far richer than ever. After all, the worst kind of poverty is the poverty of the mind and heart... while the greatest of wealth is the health of the mind and heart. Poch Suzara

Overpopulation Good for the Philippines Says Catholic Bishop

Bishop Gilbert Garcera of the Diocese of Daet, the capital of Camarines Norte, believes overpopulation has been advantageous to the Philippines and to the world because it has increased the number of overseas workers and migrants who could send remittances back home while taking care of ageing people abroad and spreading the Christian faith... Contrary to the aims of the reproductive health (RH) bill, Garcera said the huge Philippine population could be part of “God’s plan for Filipinos to be caregivers to ageing nations whose populations had become stagnant.” Oh my dear Bishop Gilbert Garcera, you are such a cheap liar and as corrupt as any of our corrupt politicians in the government. What is good for all of us Filipinos is to know first what exactly is God's plan of which you yourself haven't the foggiest. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Why I love and Respect Atheism

Atheism is wholesome, honest, and trustworthy because it faces the facts of life devoid of fear. As an atheist, I thank God that I am an atheist. After all, God himself was an atheist who created me in His own image and likeness... Please read carefully God's first commandment: THOU SHALT HAVE NO OTHER GODS BEFORE ME.". . . This simply means that God does not believe nor does He tolerate the existence of other Gods - and that makes God a SUPER ATHEIST... So my dear friends, what is the problem? If God, in his own image and likeness, created me to be an atheist - why should that bother any of you religious saps and jerks over why I am a proud and a happy atheist? Cheers!

HAPPY MEMORIAL VETERANS DAY

(CNN) -- U.S. veterans are dying because of delays in diagnosis and treatment at VA hospitals. . . . At least 19 veterans have died because of delays in simple medical screenings like colonoscopies or endoscopies, at various VA hospitals or clinics, CNN has learned. . . That's according to an internal document from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, obtained exclusively by CNN, that deals with patients diagnosed with cancer in 2010 and 2011. . . .Hospital delays are killing war vets. . . The veterans were part of 82 vets who have died or are dying or have suffered serious injuries as a result of delayed diagnosis or treatment for colonoscopies or endoscopies. . . Barry Coates is one of the veterans who has suffered from a delay in care. Coates was having excruciating pain and rectal bleeding in 2011. For a year the Army veteran went to several VA clinics and hospitals in South Carolina, trying to get help. But the VA's diagnosis was hemorrhoids, and aside from simple pain medication he was told he might need a colonoscopy." Indeed, HAPPY VETERANS MEMORIAL DAY. American soldiers come home from war maimed or injured but are unable to find hospital care; many also are unable to find jobs in the Land of the Free and the Home of the brave. After the Second World War, tens of thousands of Filipino soldiers fought on the sides with American soldiers against the Japanese soldiers. After the war, hundreds of thousands of Filipinos had to fall in line to acquire a visa, if at all granted, to go to America. But The Japanese, and indeed the Germans, former enemies of freedom and democracy, could go readily visit the USA without a visa! I said it before, I say it again: war between nations has never been about good versus evil. It has always been about evil versus evil and evil always won. Too bad the soldiers on either side fighting evil have as yet to fully understand that war between nations has never, but never ended the evils of war as an instrument to settle international disputes. What war has only accomplished is the preparation for future wars. In this already 21st century, I'd like to share with all of you the thoughts of Bertrand Russell on the subject of war: "You can, if you think fit, prepare children for a military life by teaching them all to do the same thing at the same moment when they hear the word of command. If you do, they will grow up thwarted and stunted and full of deep-seated anger against the world - no doubt useful emotions if they are to become soldiers employed in killing, but not if they are to be happy citizens of a world at peace."

There is No Such Thing as Life After Death

"I said it before, I say it again: We must face and appreciate the truth that life has only to do with birth which is the existence of something, and should have nothing to do with death which is the existence of nothing.

That there is a better life to come after death is all but a ecclesiastical hogwash. There is no such thing as life after death. There is only life after birth. Consider for millions of years before birth, we were existing as a nothing. It will be the same merry-go-round after death. We shall again be existing as a nothing.

After death, even if one were still alive in spirit, I ask: with what eyes shall we see; with what ears shall we hear; with what nose shall we smell; with what palate shall we taste; with what skin shall we feel; with what sexual organ shall we have sex; and indeed, with what brain shall we be able to think?... In the final analysis, We do not die partially or temporarily. We die entirely and, indeed, permanently. Nothing is more evident to him who is not delirious. The human body, after death, is but a mass of meat, incapable of producing any movement the union of which constitute life. We no longer see circulation, respiration, digestion, reflection, or the freedom of expression. Nothing is more natural and more simple than to believe that the dead man is no more. There is nothing more absurd than to believe that the dead man is still living.

H. L. Mencken summarized neatly for all of us to clearly see: "Immortality is the condition of a dead man who does not believe that he is already dead."

For my part, as an atheist, I said it before, I say it again: If we must die, let us die sober, and not drunk with lies or delusions... I do not regret nor do I feel sorrow at the death of a love-one, a relative, a friend, or an associate. I am happy with the thought that the dead are already resting in peace forever and can no more be bothered with lies, illusions, confusions, or deceptions! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The Wealth of the 10 Most Richest Filipinos

MANILA, Philippines - If the combined wealth of 10 of the richest Filipinos represents the income of more than 20 million wage earners, then what inclusive growth is President Benigno Aquino III talking about? "A workers' group on Friday assailed the chief executive's assertation before the World Economic Forum (WEF) on East Asia that the Philippines, through the Filipino people, had made inclusive and remarkable growth doable. The group said that while there might have been progress, this failed to trickle down to the poor. Partido ng Manggagawa (PM) chairman Renato Magtubo said that based on his group's study, the estimated US$45.3 billion combined wealth of the country's 10 richest people is equal to the annual income of 21 million miniumum wage earners - a proof that economic growth does not translate to substantial poverty reduction as its benefits remain concentrated in the hands of a few. "The Philippines is not a fantastic story of economic miracle but an old testament to this kind of regional growth pattern where a handful of business elites control more than half the economy," said Magtubo. “The Philippine government cannot claim ‘inclusive growth’ until this ratio of inequality is effectively reversed,” he added. Basking in the international acclaim of one of the region’s most astounding “economic miracles,” Aquino on Thursday attributed the country's remarkable growth to the collective effort of the Filipino people. "When many of you have praised the achievements of the Philippines, we always point out that the pursuit of large-scale reforms in every aspect of governance is the achievement of the Filipino people," Aquino said in his speech at the opening of the WEF in Manila. "They made the goal of achieving inclusive growth doable, and it is also they who will make it irreversible," the President added. But Magtubo countered Aquino's statement, saying that any mention of the word "people" at the WEF, "won’t go beyond the context of market – open markets for corporate products and cut-price and flexible labor markets for their efficient operations." “Thus the WEF cannot brag about wonders and miracles when Asia remains the biggest home to the world’s poorest people epitomized by workers in vulnerable employment,” said Magtubo. The Asian region has the highest rate of informalization in the world, according to PM. "As defined, informal workers are the own-account (self-employed) and unpaid family workers combined. They also include workers in irregular (contractuals) or seasonal employment," Magtubo explained. He said that recently, informal workers had been labelled as precariats or workers living in precarious working conditions. The group said the International Labor Organization (ILO) had estimated the Asia-wide “vulnerable employment” in 2007 at 1.1 billion people or 62.2 percent of all workers in the region, while informalization in the Philippines is estimated to be between 41 and 77 percent." In the meantime, I asked it before, I ask it again: Have any of you ever met a Filipino who got to be FILTHY RICH for believing that God is BAD? So how come millions of Filipinos are FILTHY POOR and yet they all believe that God is GOOD! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

No, It's not only Aquino Who's Useless

Philippine Daily Inquirer Letter to the Editors Monday, May 26th, 2014 Dear Sirs: It's Aquino Who's Useless Super Typhoon “Yolanda” survivors are calling Ping Lacson useless as rehabilitation czar (“Ping useless, say ‘Yolanda’ victims,” News, 5/17/14). That actually wasn’t quite as surprising as when President Aquino appointed him to that position a few months ago... Indeed, rather than work to help the survivors, Lacson has chosen to spend most of his time blabbing about the pork barrel scam and the infamous list of those allegedly involved in it... But the Yolanda survivors can’t blame Lacson more than they should blame President Aquino. Lacson’s appointment didn’t make sense from the very beginning but, true to the opportunist that he seemingly is, he didn’t turn down the position. So the bigger issue is President Aquino’s decision to appoint Lacson. Nothing much has been “delivered” by Malacañang since Yolanda. Yes, there was the news about “finished” bunkhouses for survivor-families, which were “inspected” and approved by President Aquino, but which turned out to have been substandard. So in a sense, the one who is useless is not Lacson but President Aquino himself, who can’t do anything significant for the Yolanda survivors except to appoint a useless bureaucrat to attend to them. —MELLIE SANCHEZ, melanie_sanchez1992@yahoo.com... My Dear Mellie Sanchez, I read with great interest your letter published in the Philippine Daily Inquirer today... May I, however, point out to you what's historically useless in our country... All of those as employees (some 17 million of them) and as high officials in the government are products of schools, colleges, and universities own and operated (tax free) by the Catholic church in the Philippines... Just like the rest of us, they too have been educated from grade school to high school and up to college to believe that as individuals, or as a family, or as a people, or even as a nation - whatever our problems and troubles we need not worry nor should we be bothered because there is always God who will provide for us in the end. If not in this world, in the next. Do you see now why we Filipinos are still spiritually useless as a people, and still morally useless as a nation? Cheers! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Truthfulness

It is not in spite of, but precisely due to, - the schools, colleges, and universities... Mostly own and operated by the Catholic church in the Philippines... We Filipinos have never been taught how to be spiritually free as a people; nor, have we ever been taught how to morally develop independently as a nation... To begin with, there is no such beauty as love of our country... There is only love of mendacity; especially for the sake of a silly divinity in need of more money otherwise more referred to as the Word of God under Christianity... I said it before, I say it again: If truthfulness were suddenly a serious way of life with us Filipinos in the Philippines, the government, the churches, schools, colleges, universities, and, indeed the media - radio, television, newspapers, and magazine business would suddenly go bankrupt, dead, and buried!

Golf Courses in America and in the Philippines

There are over seventeen thousand golf courses in America, they average over one hundred and fifty acres a piece. That’s three million plus acres, four thousand, eight hundred and twenty square miles. You could build two Rhode Islands and a Delaware for the homeless on the land currently being wasted on this meaningless, mindless, arrogant, elitist, racist, there’s another thing; the only blacks you’ll find at country clubs are carrying trays. And a boring game. A boring game for boring people. You ever watch golf on television? It’s like watching flies fuck! George Carlin Golf courses for the few filthy rich are proliferating throughout the Philippines. Instead of planting fruit trees, rice, corn, flower plants, etc. the filthy rich, who have nothing else better to do, are plating golf balls for the pleasure of driving such balls to only God knows where. And so, for the many filthy poor struggling to survive in this only Christian country in Asia, it means land deformed instead of land reform... Poch Suzara

What is Worth Thinking

"Our main business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand." Thomas Carlyle... Oh My Dear Thomas Carlyle, this is all fine and dandy; but my main business has always been not only to see what dimly lies at a distance, not only to do what clearly lies at hand, but also to question everything around me all time; especially as a matter of what is worth thinking in order to know what is worth believing.

Woman's Vagina and Man's Penis and Life on this Earth

The ugliest part of a woman's body is her ugly looking vagina. The ugliest part of a man's body is his ugly looking penis. To think that the vagina and the penis are both needed to make babies as we are commanded to multiply and to replenish the earth. In order, however, to deodorize the ugly reality, or to sanitize the ugly activity, we tell each other religious lies like: God created man in His own image and likeness!. . . Indeed, instead of understanding the beauty of the human medulla oblongata, we only need to believe and to have more faith in a lot of ugly dogma, ugly pigma, and ugly hogma. In the meantime, in the ultimate reality - human life on this earth is nothing but a sexually-transmitted disease with a mortality rate of 100 per cent. Or, to put it more bluntly, life is a disease for which there is no cure. None whatsoever. Like damned fools in a ship of fools we are all sharing, whether we like it or not, - a common doom together. . . Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Religiosity that Promotes Insanity

I THANK THE GOD OF THE CHRISTIANS, THE ALLAH OF THE MUSLIMS, AND THE YAHWEH OF THE JEWS - THEY HAVE NO MORE INFLUENCE OVER MY LIFE, NO MORE POWER OVER MY SENSE OF MORALITY. THEOLOGY IS THE STUDY OF NOTHING COMPILED SYSTEMATICALLY TO PROMOTE FEAR, HATE, MASS MURDER, WAR AND INSANITY... LOOK AT HOW THE CHRISTIAN THEOLOGY ALWAYS IN CONFLICT WITH ISLAM THEOLOGY ALWAYS IN CONFLICT WITH JEWISH THEOLOGY! THEY WOULD RATHER HATE EACH OTHER AND FIGHT IT OUT TO THE DEATH THAN TO DISCOVER THE TRUTH ABOUT WHY RELIGION, ALL RELIGIONS ENCOURAGE HUMAN STUPIDITY THAT CULMINATES INTO HUMAN INSANITY FOR ALL OF MANKIND TO BECOME VICTIMS OF INTELLECTUAL POVERTY NOT ONLY GLOBALLY, BUT ALSO PERPETUALLY...

The Truth as more Precious than Health or Wealth

When asked what surprised him most about humanity, he said: “MAN." Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.” Dalai Lama. . . We squander our health in search of wealth. We toil. We sweat. We save. Then we squander our wealth in search of health. Only to find the grave. Anonymous... For my part, as an atheist, I am most happy and proud of myself as a man. For most of my life, I squandered my health in search of the truth. Indeed, in search of better questions to ask; especially as the answers, in time, become obsolete. Consider reality as the truth around us: each unfolding reality contains the seeds of its own destruction, and the embryo of a new reality that will replace it. Poch Suzara

Good Governance is Good Economics

"Good governance is good economics." President Nonoy Aquino. PHilippine Star, May 23, 2014. Oh my dear Mr. President, good governance is indeed good economics.

The Evils of War as Inspired by Religion

"War may sometimes be a necessary evil. But no matter how necessary, it is always an evil, never a good. We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other's children." - JIMMY CARTER. . . Perhaps, we could begin to learn how to live in peace as one happy human family together on this earth as soon we teach our children to acknowledge the ugly truth that human life is but a sexually-transmitted disease with a mortality rate of 100 per cent on this earth; and, to accept also another ugly truth: that our wars as written by historians have never been about good versus evil. It has always been about evil versus evil and evil always won! At most times, we sanitize the filth of war or deodorize the stench of war by saying that "war may sometimes be a necessary evil." In the meantime, let's listen to what a great philosopher said on the subject: "Religion prevents our children from having a rational education; religion prevents us from removing fundamental causes of war; religion prevents us from teaching the ethics of scientific cooperation in place of the old fierce doctrines of sin and punishment. It is possible that mankind is on the threshold of a golden age, it will be necessary first to slay the dragon that guards the door, and that door is religion. - BERTRAND RUSSELL Twitter# Facebook# Google#

God in Heaven Up There

I said it before, I say it again: it has got to be the highest level of stupidity, if not the lowest form of insanity, to believe that a loving God does better up there in heaven than he does on earth down here, especially in the Philippines - the only Catholic country in Asia since the 16th century.

The Growth, Progress, and Development of the Philippines

Who can over estimate the progress of the world if all the money wasted in superstition could be used to enlighten, elevate and civilize mankind? -- Robert Green Ingersoll. . . Who can over estimate the growth, progress, and development of the Philippines if all the money we yearly give to the Catholic Charity activities via the Catholic priesthood industry could be used instead to enlighten, elevate, and civilize millions of our children in schools, colleges, and universities?

International Labor Organization

In the Philippines, the only Catholic country since the 16th century, we Filipinos, as faithful Catholics, have been taught to believe that God will always provide us with what we pray for. In fact, in the bible, Matthew 7:7-8, it says: Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you; for everyone that asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened." In a recent report, however, released in January 2014 by the International Labor Organization (ILO), it says the Philippines has the highest unemployment rate for the previous year among the 10 member countries of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean). Philippine Daily Inquirer, May 21, 2014. Such is the power of prayer; but we are told that the trouble with us is that we do not pray hard enough; we must only pray harder. And Like damned fools in this God-forsaken country - in this already 21st century - in order to find employment - millions of us in the labor force still do pray a lot!

Light and Darkness

"Never forget in the darkness, what you know to be true in the light." Philippine Star, May 21, 2014. . . In the first chapter of the Bible God said on the first day of creation, “Let there be light: and there was light” (Genesis 1:3). But it isn't until several verses later, on Day 4 of Creation Week, that we find that the sun, moon, and stars were created. “And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night; he made the stars also … to give light upon the earth” (Genesis 1:16-17). At any rate, obviously God Himself was no blinding bright light. He had to create the sun to brighten the darkness around Him. In the meantime, in 1 John 1:5 we are told that "God is light" and in Him there is no darkness at all. Are we to suppose that this is what having faith in blind faith has been all about?

Eternal and temporary Punishment

"I do not believe that any person who is profoundly humane can believe in everlasting punishment." Bertrand Russell. . . Oh my dear Bertrand Russell, in the Philippines, the only Catholic country in Asia since the 16th century - the teachers and professors in Catholic schools, colleges, and universities do not only believe and teach the doctrine of eternal punishment in life after death, but also believe and teach temporary punishment in life after birth. In the meantime, in our sick and sinful society, it is a sin to be patriotic. What, however, is not a sin is to always be faithful as a Catholic. Poch Suzara

Zero Population Growth

The trouble with our silly teachers and professors in schools, colleges, and universities together with our mindless politicians in the government all in cahoots with our frightened officials in the health Department - they are all scared to entertain the reality of ZERO POPULATION GROWTH - because the Catholic bishops will damned them all to hell for the greater glory of God in heaven. Zero population growth, sometimes abbreviated ZPG (also called the replacement level of fertility),[1] is a condition of demographic balance where the number of people in a specified population neither grows nor declines, (same number of births with same number of deaths) considered as a social aim by free and independent nations.[2] According to some, zero population growth is the ideal towards which countries and the whole world should aspire in the interests of accomplishing long-term environmental sustainability.[3] I asked it before, I ask it again: how could we ever attain ZERO POPULATION GROWTH when the Catholic bishops themselves in the our poor and backward country have not ceased to frighten our women that if they practice family planning and birth control measures God will cease to love them and will no longer PROVIDE FOR THEM! What a lot of Catholic historical bullcrap! Poch Suzara, Atheist Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Senator Juan Ponce Enrile

"Pardon me for not discussing the case, and what I am going to do in the event that a case is filed against me. I have trained in that art in the same way that you are trained in your art." Senator Juan Ponce Enrile... Come on Senator Enrile, cut your sick political bullcrap! How exactly have you been exposing the crimes committed by your fellow-senators down through the years? Sir, there is no crime greater than all the crimes put together - the crime of silence!

How Character Should Be Measured

Our character is measured by what we do when no one is looking. Philippine Star, May 21, 2014... On the contrary, character should be measured by what we do differently when every one is shocked looking thoughtlessly in blind faith. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google3

Reading is Like traveling

Reading is like traveling - it is useless if one cannot change or refuses to learn something new. If one only hopes to grow older; not wiser. It is also just like making money. It is utterly a waste if one were only to remain selfish, greedy, stupid, and religiously insane - proud and happy of nothing except the recycled garbage around them more referred to as "blessings from God," as God provides. I have met a great many people who have traveled and have even migrated to live and work in foreign countries. They are there happy and gay eating good food together; hardly, however, are they into creative reading of a good book together. Also, how to always be on the look out for more money coming in by hook or by crook so as to be respectable silly import of a gook all together! Poch Suzara, Twitter# Facebook@ Google#

Catholic Charity Activities endless in the Philippines

"If Satan appears to me and gives me money, I will accept the money and spend it all for the poor. It is not the practice of the Church to ask donors where their donations come from. Our duty is to make sure all donations go to the poor. The devil remains . . . my enemy but I will use his resources to feed the poor." -- Oct. 25, 2000, defending the Catholic Church's acceptance of a total of P181 million in donations from the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation since 1998. Jaime Cardinal Sin... The trouble is, since even God needs money, the poor people in the Philippines are not getting any better; in fact, they are only getting poorer - Thanks to the daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly charity activities of the Catholic church in the Philippines since the 16th century - the only Catholic country in Asia that need, for its growth and economic development, foreign investments from the Catholic Vatican bank - the richest and most powerful bank in the world in this 21st century.

Was Jesus Truthful

"Look for Christ's return and you'll live for Christ's glory." Philippine Star, May 20, 2014 More than 2,000 years ago, Jesus promised his followers that he would return quickly in glory and vindication. He vowed to establish the kingdom of God on earth and to redeem their suffering. To heighten their expectation he assured his followers that most of them would live to see all of this come to pass. His dismal failure to do so places the Christians on the arena of a serious dilemma. Jesus’ hollow promises work to seriously undermine his credibility. If the credibility of Jesus is undermined, so is that of the church. If, on the other hand, it is argued that the gospels and Paul reported incorrectly, does that not seriously undermine the reliability of the New Testament? Even if one were to argue that God knowingly inspired the contradictions, errors and undelivered promises in the New Testament why should anyone believe and practice any of its teachings if so much of it could be revealed falsehood? The following bible verses confirm that Jesus deliberately lead his followers into false expectations. Matt. 10:23 – When giving instructions to his disciples as to just how they are to go about spreading his message Jesus says, “for truly I say unto you, you shall not finish going through the cities of Israel until the Son of man comes.” Matt. 26:28 - Jesus says, “There are some of those standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.” Matt. 24:33-34 - After prophesying a wide assortment of events including the second coming, Jesus said, “ . . . when you shall see all these things, know that it ( the 2nd coming ) is near, even at the door. This generation shall not pass till these things be fulfilled.” Jesus was obviously referring to the contemporary generation. Matt. 26:74 – When brought before Caiaphas, the chief priest, Jesus said to him, “ I will tell you, hereafter you shall see the Son of man . . . coming on the clouds of heaven.” According to this the second coming was to happen during Caiaphas’ lifetime. Mark 9:1 - And he said unto them, “verily, I say unto you, that there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power. Luke 21: 27-28 – “And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.” Luke 21:32 – “verily I say unto you, “This generation shall not pass way, till all be fulfilled.” 1 Thess 4: 15-17 – In his first epistle to the Thessalonians Paul assures the congregation that the second coming is very near,” . . . “we who are alive,” . . . shall not proceed those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will descend from heaven . . . and the dead Christ shall rise first . . . Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together. . .” Revelation 22:12 – Behold, I come quickly.” Revelation 22: 20 – “Yes, I am coming quickly.” More than two thousand years have already passed, yet Jesus’ promise of a quick return remains undelivered. Our world today is in desperate need of a Savior. Specially the Filipinos in the Philippines. So where is Jesus? I think it’s time to admit that Jesus has even forgotten all about the revealed truths in the bible that have yet to be revealed. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google

I am Most Proud to be a Failure in Life

As a former believer, I am proud to have gradually failed to follow Jesus and his teachings. Jesus warned: “If any man come to me and hate not his father, and his mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. Luke 14:26. On more family values from Jesus, please also read Matthew 10:34-37, Matthew 19:29, Luke 12:51-53, and Luke 19:27. And after reading such verses from Jesus and you can still consider yourself as a faithful follower of Jesus, then I say: you are indeed a mentally sick person! It is, indeed, painful to know that in this 21st century, the teachings of Jesus continue to be quite a success at home and in schools everywhere in the Philippines keeping us Filipinos ever famous as the Sick Man of Asia. In the meantime, I ask: how may we progress as a nation if the religious officials of our government were not working for the people; but are, instead, only answerable to the voice of God supposedly speaking from the Vatican Bank from out there? Oh yes, smile, God loves you; but He needs money! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Why We filipinos are Spiritually Fucked as a people

Valuable lessons are learned from examining the lives of God’s people who’ve gone before. Philippine Star, May 19, 2014. Oh my dear Philippine Star Editors, I entirely agree with all of you: We have certainly learned valuable lessons by examining the lives of all those past Maka-Jesus congressmen and Maka-Dios senators of our blessed by God government. Sadly, however, those past God's people as high government officials have certainly kept us spiritually fucked as a people and economically fucked as a nation. As you little boy going to La Salle Taft Avenue in the late 40's and early 50's, I used to see poor Filipinos pee and poo in the streets. As I got older, I saw hundreds more Filipinos pee and poo and beg in the streets. Now that I am a senior citizen, I see thousands of poor Filipinos not only peeing and pooing and begging in the streets, but also eating, sleeping, playing, and fucking in the streets of our major cities. To think that they are also God's citizens of the Republic of the Philippines - the only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century. In the meantime, out of the 100 MILLION Filipinos populating our country, it is estimated that 30 MILLION Filipinos are known to be homeless, jobless, and hopeless. This is only because the other 70 MILLION Filipinos have been educated in Catholic schools, colleges, and universities to be directionless as a people and to be rudderless as a nation; specially as Maka-Jesus and Maka-Dios and as Maka-bible citizens of the Republic of the Philippines.
