Old and New Religion

In the old religion, God will provide. In the new religion, however, the universe will provide. If either were true, how come in the end no one can even survive? After a brief moment of life on this speck of dust called earth, we are quickly poofed out of existence and the billions of galaxies out there couldn’t care less.

Dear Jesus

Dear Jesus, Millions of your Filipino followers are filthy poor. Only a few of your Filipino followers are filthy rich. All, however, rich and poor alike, are waiting for your return. What’s holding up the show? Where are you Jesus? It has been more than 2,000 years already. Why did you make a promise you could not deliver sooner? Time has elapsed! Oh Jesus, do you know that millions of Filipinos who are college educated Catholics have to earn a living overseas. These are in foreign countries that do not even believe you to be the Son of God who performed wonderful miracles or that you are the Savior of the Filipinos! Poch Suzara

In School

In La Salle grade school and in high school we were threatened with punishment if we dared to read the great books written by great thinkers and philosophers. I somehow disobeyed. Down through the years, I began to clearly see why we are a people of childish prayers; and not a nation of matured readers.

Indeed, we Filipinos are born ignorant, not stupid; we are made stupid not by an educational, but by the powerful commercial enterprises otherwise more known as Catholic schools, colleges, and universities.

Beware

“Beware of covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of the things he possesses.” Luke 12:15

Gee Luke, you are so right! What is the Church doing with abundance - its trillions of dollars in cash deposits in the Vatican Bank? Poch Suzara

Intellect

“The greatest of intellect without religion in the heart, is only civilized barbarism, and disguised animalism.” Bunsen

Well, what about the senseless death of Jesus crucified on the cross here on earth? His own Father in heaven abetted and tolerated the carnage; or, was that just a theological barbarism, if not just an ecclesiastical animalism? Poch Suzara

Dr. Harold J. Sala

This famous minister says that the science of archaeology has contributed more to substantiating the authenticity of the holy bible than most people know about. Really? What about the science of astronomy where it discovered that we are a speck of debris from the cosmic explosion? Where is that discovered and explained in the bible?
What about the science of geology that reminds us of our brief existence both as individuals and as a species? Where is that elucidated in the bible?
Dr. Harold J. Sala says that the bible was written in a world of flesh and blood, of commerce, of intrigue, of love and death. Hell, Dr. Sala! If these were the case, why would the authors of the bible need inspiration from a loving God to write such superstitious nonsense?
Poch Suzara

Phooey

Whoever slanders the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven: he carries the guilt of his sin forever. Mark 3:29

Phooey on the Holy Spirit. Phooey on the forgiveness of sin. Phooey on the guilt of my sin forever. And for being such a bully, phooey on you too Mark! What did you, as a superstitious author of God, really know anything about what is holy and what is a spirit? In fact, what did you know anything about God? Poch Suzara

Biblical Zombies

Here's one revealed truth in the HOLY bible as written by inspired authors of God: And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose. And came out of the graves . . . And went into the holy city, and appeared to many.” Matt. 37: 52- 53. Quite a few of those biblical Zombies migrated to the Philippines and got to be installed as teachers and professors in our Catholic schools, colleges, and universities. Millions of us Filipinos got to be the "idiots," "Morons," "stupid fools" as we were all indoctrinated to believe their teachings as they were the resurrected zombies. They all frightened us to believe as well that we too are gifted with a FREE WILL especially to enjoy too after we are dead - the miracle of resurrection back to life with Jesus on earth as HE is in heaven! It is insane, isn't it? Well, here's another revealed truth written in the bible which nobody likes to read or to admit as a revealed truth: "THE DEAD KNOW NOT ANYTHING, NEITHER HAVE THEY ANY MORE A REWARD FOR THE MEMORY OF THEM IS FORGOTTEN." Eccl 9:5 Poch Suzara

The Human Body Created by God

"In cancer," wrote Bertrand Russell, "a group of cells engages in a career of imperialism, but, in bringing the rest of the body to death, it decrees also its own extinction." Well, about the 20 billion kinds of germs, bacteria, and viruses existing inside our body during birth? We are told the human body is God’s greatest gift to man. How wonderful. Sadly, however, the human body at birth, grows, gets old and it dies. The human body is eventually killed by those deadly little microscopic monsters - all bereft of moral values - deadly little creatures living inside our body as a housing facilities but gifted too with free will on this earth for the glory of God in heaven. It is, in this sense, that I ask: have any you ever met any one who has been blessed by God? Blessed how and for how long? Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

The Original Evil

If this world, with all of its birth and pain, suffering and death, is the work of a self-conscious Being, then creation is the original crime and the creator is the original criminal. Which is which therefore: God will forgive us, or, we will forgive God? Poch Suzara

Ask Not

As not what you can do for God. Ask, instead, what God can do for you. After all, God has the power, the kingdom, and the glory. We humans have nothing! We even live on a speck of dust called earth lost in the immensity of space and time. In the meantime, we were taught to believe that God is omni-present and that religion is ubiquitous. And yet nobody knows where religion comes from just as much as nobody knows why God is always omni-absent! Poch Suzara

Columnist William M. Esposo

Columnist Esposo of Philippine Star wrote in the Philippine Star today Feb.19, 2008:

“Have you ever wondered if all this mess that we are in is
actually
outgrowths of the dysfunctional family relationships of our well-known couple."

Sir, may I refer you to the foundation of our values and beliefs keeping us spiritually poor as a people and morally bankrupt as a nation?
It comes from our most sacred book known as the holy bible. I hope these verses alone will inspire you to read more properly bible contents. In this way, you might conclude that most of the elements that make for our sick society comes from Christianity “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him." John 2:15
Matt. 10:34-35 “Think not that I am come to send peace on earth. I came not to send peace, but a sword,” “For I am come to set a Man at variance against his father, and daughter against her mother.”
Mark 13:12 “Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and
children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death.”
Luke 12:51-53Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division. For from henceforth there shall be five to one house divided, three against two, and two against three. The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father, and the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother
Luke 14:26 “ If any man come to me and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, and yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple
St John 12:25-25 “He that loveth his life shall lose it; he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal; . . . If any man serve me, him will my father honor.”
Luke 19:27 “But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them for me.”

MAP Statement

For the sake of good governance, the management Association of the Philippines, (MAP) called on - “the religious leaders to speak out in thunderous language and condemn the moral degradation of our government bureaucracy, and we unequivocally join the Catholic bishops’ call for “communal action” to regain our moral compass and, with it, our nation’s dignity and self-respect.” Philippine Start Feb. 14, 2008

We are, indeed, a nation of childish morons. We call on the Catholic bishops to scold our rotten government officials who are the products of catholic schools, colleges, and universities in this only catholic country in Asia.

What exactly have these Catholic Bishops done during these past 400 years to teach the Filipino to have self-respect as a people and to have dignity as a nation? Why must our government officials continue the corrupt marriage between State and Church in our country?

The only thing necessary for evil to flourish is for good men and women to keep on submitting to the destructive beliefs taught to them during childhood years by the Catholic Church and other Christian churches. Such religious establishments continue to keep the Philippines poor spiritually, bankrupt morally, sick politically, insane socially, and backward economically.

I said it before, I say it again: Look how we Filipinos love not our country, nor do we love fellow-Filipinos. We love only God up there as we were taught to hate this world and to hate one another down here? Poch Suzara

The Greatest Filipino Tragedy

The greatest tragedy of the Filipino as a people is his faithful tolerance for deadly ignorance. We are famous the world over not as a people mindful of health and sanitation, or thoughtful of law and order, or appreciative of family planning and birth control standards, or common human decency, or respectful of our women, but only famous for our faith in Jesus – the Son of God – the Savior of the Philippines born as a Jew in Israel some 2,000 years ago that today is not even a Christian country, but a Jewish State. We hardly ask: “What’s happening to our poor and backward country in this already 21st century?” We should, instead, be seriously asking: What’s happening to our so-called sacred values beliefs as the only Christian country in Asia? What exactly has Christianity in general, and the Catholic church in particular done historically to contribute anything substantial that have inspired the Filipino to live the good and decent life – one inspired by love and guided by the power of knowledge? Poch Suzara

Religion

“Any system of religion that has in it anything that shocks the mind of a child, cannot be true.” Thomas Paine.

Men and women who continue to have faith in what shocked them during childhood years in school have got to be the psycho-ceramics as called in the scientific term; or, in the layman’s language, – crackpots. Poch Suzara

My Religion

My religion is about enlightened unbelief; not the religion of frightened belief. Questions are far more important than the answers. After all, in time, the answers become obsolete. I question everything so as not to constrain my life of understanding. Poch Suzara

Bible Authors

Bible authors had no knowledge of the planet earth being round, rotating on its own axis daily, and orbiting around the sun yearly. Why did an All-knowing God inspire the bible authors to be ignorant of the science of astronomy?

In the meantime, why should God tell us how to raise and educate our children when he Himself had drowned and suffocated His own? Before the Flood, the loving God Told Noah: “To hell with sinners; to hell with your neighbors. SAVE THE ANIMALS.” Poch Suzara

Philosophy

I love philosophy. It begins when one learns to doubt. Especially to doubt one’s faith in the existence of hogmas, pigmas, and dogmas.

I love Philosophy as I hate theology. Philosophy teaches us HOW to think. Theology teaches us WHAT to believe. I remember as a little boy, with too much theology, I believed and had faith in a lot of religious hogwash! I am therefore grateful to philosophy: she saved not my soul, but saved instead my precious mind. Poch Suzara

Education

Owners of schools, College and university owners ought to be the guardians of civilization. Teachers and professors ought ought to be the guardians of a sane and a healthy society.

We think of education as the transmission of a certain body of settled knowledge. On the contrary, education ought to be about the development of a scientific habit of mind. Indeed, learning as a process of lively analysis, and not a matter of deadly paralysis. It is sad and painful to see college educated men and women of this country carry a heavy load of useless guilt on their backs. They are intellectually crippled by its destructive weight. It is, in this way, that they readily serve a silly divinity up there rather than play a role in the development of our country for its growth and maturity down here. Poch Suzara

Women Writers

No woman writer contributed a single word while the bible was being written by male superstitious primitives a.k.a. as the inspired authors of God. I love women. When it comes to religious writings, they have no taste for such superstitious garbage. Poch Suzara

Love versus Hate

I am known to be a failure, a loser, a bitter fellow, a high-school dropout, an insane atheist, a poor bum; and, indeed, a man of hate. Only because I love this life as much as I love this world. Our world. There is even a moron on these pages who asked if I was on drugs or on alcohol? I am at war against those who make a mockery of human intelligence. Especially those who believe that if we love this world and if we love the things that are in this world – the love of God is not with us! I said it before, I say it again: FUCK THAT HOLY MESSAGE BIBLE SHIT. In the meantime, I really do not know what’s the big deal about God being the creator of the world since it is the silly devil who keeps this world, our world - all FUCKED running it to no end for the greater glory of his sick God in heaven! Poch Suzara

Success

To enjoy success in our sick society, it is not enough to be educated as a faithful believer. One must also be selfish, greedy, stupid, insane, and especially, God-fearing. Indeed, in order to succeed in our sick society, one must first prove that the reptilian part of your brain is much bigger than the mammalian part. Our society has always been ruled by sick reptiles in the shape of sick politicians in cahoots with the sick theologians.

In the meantime, we Filipinos have yet to discover that happiness can only be discovered by promoting happiness to other Filipinos.

Sadly, however, in this poor and backward country, we are only happy whenever we remember there is a better world to come after we are all dead! Poch Suzara

Church History

If we would only bother to discover church history, we could discover this horror: In God’s name, the atheists were booted out of town, ostracized, arrested, punished, tortured, incarcerated, drowned, boiled, garroted, hanged, burned, shot, and executed for bringing enlightenment to free the human mind! Such was the case against Giordano Bruno, a Catholic monk during the 16th century. For believing and preaching that there are other worlds out there, and for believing that everything perishes but nothing changes, the church had him arrested, tried, and sentenced to death by burning him alive on a stake in a public arena. Of course another was our own Jose Rizal – the greatest Filipino freethinker. He was executed for his harmful writings against the Catholic teachings to Filipinos in the Philippines.

Oh God

Oh God, I sometimes imagine you exist. If you were a real, honest-to-goodness existing God, we Americans would have no need for Superman, Batman and Robin, Spiderman, and other weird characters in the White House to install freedom and democracy in foreign around to save the world! Poch Suzara

Genetic Facts

According to the science of Genetics, all people are 99.9 per cent identical. Yet people hate and kill each other for being different and that difference is often due to faith in God.

If God, however, could not remove stupid religion out of this world, what assurances have we that God already removed stupid religion in the next world if, in fact, there is any? Poch Suzara

Pain and Christianity

Pain is nature’s signal to do something. Religion is the signal to do nothing. Thus, religion encourages pain, misery, poverty, indeed - a sick society. It is all about the failure of values and beliefs under the success of Christianity. Poch Suzara

Some things Are Impossible

Some things are impossible. For example, it is impossible to love this world after birth; especially after you have been threatened to believe that there is a better world to come after death. Poch Suzara

Wow Wee

There were no Filipinos present during the First Coming of the Lord in Judea, Bethlehem during the first century; and yet a great many Filipinos actually expected to be present in the Second Coming of the Lord in the Philippines. during the 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th, 20th, and now expected to arrive in this 21st century? Well, thank God their children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren are still doing the same thing - waiting for the Second Coming of the Lord to remedy all the ills of our sick society.
Wow Wow Wee! Poch Suzara

What an Insult

What an insult it must be to your soul landing in heaven knowing that its former house – God’s greatest gift to mankind - your precious human body – is left behind on earth faithfully dead and religiously rotting. Poch Suzara

American Cats and Dogs

Millions of cats and dogs live like humans in America. Millions of Americans, however, live like animals in the streets of America. And to prove just how stupid we Americans are in the eyes of the world – we continue to be at war against other countries just to remind the sick cats and sick dogs struggling to survive in those foreign countries that America is the land of the free and the home of the brave. Poch Suzara

Atheists Hate War

We atheists hate war because of its death and destruction. War solves nothing. We atheists recognize the absolute finality of death. We do not believe in the existence of a next happy life in a heaven with God, nor do we recognize the existence of a next painful life in a hell with the devil. We atheists believe in peace on earth and goodwill to all men, women, and children. That’s all.

In the meantime, atheism may be negative in character. But it is neither destructive nor constrictive. When atheism is used to eradicate fear and superstition and its detrimental effects upon the minds of men and the hearts of women, atheism is a healthy approach not only for local tranquility, but mainly for global sanity.

If I could Pick My Valentine

I pick Hypatia – the Greek philosopher, a teacher of mathematics and astronomy in Alexandria. A woman renowned for her beauty. In an age of bigotry, she adhered to the Neoplatonic philosophy of Plato and Aristotle. With eloquence and intellect, the whole of Alexandria trembled whenever Hypatia lectured. The search of the truth was to her priceless. She was a woman of self-respect and dignity not only for herself but also especially for her community. Hypatia was a brilliant teacher who rejected unfounded dogmas. She laughed at the superstitious primitives of her days. She was ruthlessly murdered – a victim of religious fanaticism more than 15 centuries ago. Hypatia lived in the 5th century – a time characterized by destructive forces. The Roman Empire was falling apart. During this period of confusion, the church, however, was more troubled by Christian disunity and women's virginity. In her time, a complicated controversy on incarnation was prevalent. The question at issue was the relation of Christ's divinity to his humanity. Did Christ have two aspects, one human and the other divine? There were those who objected to calling the Virgin "Mother of God." She was, they said, only the mother of the human person, while the divine person, who was God, has no mother. The church was divided on this question. But the view that Christ was one Person with two aspects, human and divine, won in the end. Its chief protagonist was Cyril, the Archbishop of Alexandria. A man of fanatical zeal, who supported orthodoxy, and persecuted the Jewish community in Alexandria. Cyril, the church authority, had no influence over Hypatia. He hated her. Hypatia was the head of the Alexandria library. She symbolized learning and science, which at that time, the church authority largely identified with paganism. But Hypatia was also on good terms with Orestes, a pagan, who was also the city's chief Magistrate. As such, Hypatia was the focal point in the tensions and riots between Christians and non-Christians that have racked Alexandria. In order to show others what it means to deviate away from Christian beliefs and values, Cyril gathered a small mob together to get rid of Hypatia. She was "torn from her chariot, stripped naked, dragged to the church, and inhumanely butchered: her flesh was scraped from her bones with sharp oyster shells and her quivering limbs were delivered to the flames." After this Christian act of mercy, Alexandria was no longer troubled by philosophers; Cyril, however, was canonized a saint. As for Hypatia, because we never heard of her in our schools, colleges, and universities, her name has been forgotten. If I were granted a wish, I wish to have been with Hypatia during her last day of life on this earth. In defending her, I gladly would have been proud getting killed alongside protecting her. But as my wish cannot be granted, I would just be honored, if Hypatia, in spirit, will be my Valentine today. Hypatia, wherever you are, I love you, respect you, and admire you. You are among the rarest and greatest women who ever lived in this world. Poch Suzara

How We Live

A God directly involved with us but only after death is a God who must be just as dead. Such a dead God in heaven is not worth bothering while we are still alive on this earth.

As an atheist, I love this life. I love this world. Our world. I do not care for what’s nothing out there after I am dead. Neither do I give a hoot to what was nothing out there before I was born.

If I allow one kind of fear to dominate me, all other kinds will dominate me also. I will have none of it. Fear is forever busy and needs to dominate victims. Poch Suzara

Suicidal Atheists

My dear reader, have you heard of atheists blowing themselves up with dynamite for the sake of killing others? Indeed, have you heard of sexually-starved, driven by lust atheists who believed that a God in heaven will be waiting for them with 72 virgins as a reward for insane acts against other atheists? Poch Suzara

Our Sick Society

How come ours is a sick society? College educated men and women still pray to God. The same God who never lifted a finger to rescue his own begotten Son nailed to a wooden stick.

If God in heaven could not settle his sick troubles with the devil in hell, why should God settle our sick troubles with the devil on this earth? And how could any one be so childish as to believe that God’s help is just a prayer away? Poch Suzara

Fr. James Reuter and Filipino Souls

He preaches on the evils of family planning and birth control. He claims that he is helping poor Filipino families and saving Filipino souls. He has been active with this divine mission for some 60 years in the Philippines. Fr. James Reuter does not save, will not save, and could not save - American minds and hearts in America, but he can only save Filipino souls in the Philippines for a Jewish God in heaven? Wow Wee! Poch Suzara

The Rotten Idiot

Whoever says: “If God does not exist, then everything is permitted,” has got to be a greedy, selfish, rotten idiot who never learned to appreciate his natural capacity to look at our troubled world with courage, understanding, love, or compassion. Poch Suzara

God’s First Command

“Thou shall have no other gods before me.” Wow, where did those other gods come from? Who created them? If God did not believe in the existence of other gods, was God an atheist too? Poch Suzara

ONE HUNDRED BILLION

More than a hundred billion people - Christians, Jews, and Muslims have already lived and died in this world. Ever since the Talking Serpent persuaded Adam and Eve to fuck each other. No, there was no need of prayers as God was there existing as a neighbor to prevent the sin. Billions of people have stuck to their prayers but God seemed yet satisfied with having already damned to hell many of the souls of these religious morons. In the meantime, by comparison with the existence of the universe, human existence on this speck of dust called earth as something so puny and insignificant. And if there is a God out there bothered by what we do or do not do down here – then that God must be nothing but a weird monster who likes to frighten people from up there! Poch Suzara

Rich Man

It is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 19:23
My dear Matthew, who are you kidding? Poch Suzara

God Bless - No thanks

GOD BLESS YOU are words uttered daily by millions of religiously dumbstruck Filipinos everywhere. But if millions of Filipinos were truly blessed by God, how come millions of Filipinos continue to live under misery, filth, and poverty in this poor and backward in this Asia’s only Christian country? In the meantime, in the bible itself, here are examples of words uttered by a kind and loving God in the business of blessing the faithools: “Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces." Malachi 2:3 GOD BLESS YOU TOO! Poch Suzara Google# Facebook# Twitter#

Millions

Nobody knows, not even God, just exactly how many millions of baptized Filipino Catholic live under subhuman conditions in the Philippines. However the case may be, these poverty-stricken Catholic Filipinos existing in the streets, under bridges, huts and hovels are consistently reminded that God loves them; and, that Jesus, the Son of God, will soon return. The biblical promise has been going on daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly for almost 2,000 years now. From this Islas de ladrones y bobos, millions of Catholic Filipinos have already migrated and are now living and well-employed in some 190 foreign countries. This simply means that Filipinos are the failures in their own Catholic countries, but are happy and successful living and working in non-Catholic countries. Poch Suzara

Filipino Destiny

Think of it: our parents could not tell us where we were going after birth. Catholic priests, however, did tell us that after death we are either going to heaven or to hell. No wonder we are the Sick Man of Asia more involved with stupid death than we are sane living a healthy and a wholesome life. In the meantime, there is no such thing as a Christian child; only a child of a Christian parents: free will is a myth invented by Catholic theologians. Poch Suzara

The Tree of Death

Notice how in the Old Testament God shows no interest whatsoever, and even gets bored with the Tree of Knowledge. But in the New Testament, God gets very excited with the Tree of Death? Golly, He was even so thrilled watching his only begotten Son on earth getting nailed to a wooden cross. Indeed, crucified on the cross, Jesus cried out loud: "MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAS THOU FORSAKEN ME?" Poch Suzara

Let Us Hate Together

“Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord.” Isaiah 1:18 – a proposal made by the Lord in the Old Testament. In the New Testament, however, the same Lord proposed: “If any man come to me and hate not his father and mother, wife and children, and yea, his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:26, Matt 10:34-37

Self-Deception

Foremost Philippine historian Teodoro A. Agoncillo summed it all up: “Self-deception is the worst tragedy of the Filipino as a people." Well, I should add, what can be expected of Filipinos who continue to be not the intelligent masters, but the stupid victims of values and beliefs under Christianity and its teachings based upon confusion, illusion, and confusion? Poch Suzara

Power

Of all forms of power, the most destructive is the power of madness.

We atheists are not into madness. What we do enjoy, however, is the power of thought. It is sinless. It is crimeless. Indeed, the power of thought is fearless and godless as it is priceless. Poch Suzara

Child Rapist

Corruption in Congress is not consistent. Sometimes, there is an inconsistency. One Congressman, for example, enjoyed a bit of side show,- a sexual degradation away from the daily corruption. He found time to rape a little girl. After which, convicted, in prison, during mass, he would give thanks to the Lord for his sexual
stamina as the most macho member of Congress.

To think that there are sexually-starved, men driven by lust in our sick society who continue to insist that the congressman in question should never have landed in jail. That he got a raw deal sentenced to prison. they argue, while salivating with envy, that the girl he salaciously forced himself into was a child prostitute of 12 years old. As if raping a prostitute is not a crime. As if there is such a criminal
called a child prostitute who could be raped first before services are rendered getting herself invaginated honorably by lust driven moronic sex maniacs. This Congressman could not envisage the girl’s future as a decent mother, or a decent wife, or even as a decent citizen of the Republic of the Philippines.

During her painful experience, I try to imagine that little girl frightened, helpless, crying, and pleading; but her congressman found it more honorable watching with much gusto her abused little vagina bleeding. Poch Suzara

Indeed Mr poch suzara.
interesting thoughts you have.

Biblical Fanatics

The Bible preachers are getting more famous, indeed, getting more successful selling the Word of God. This is only because the believers of the faith are still a frightened lot of satanic, - religiously idiotic, - fanatics.

Take, for example, Brother Eli Soriano of Dating Daan, a religious leader from the boondocks. Daily on TV, he would preach to his viewers bible messages that keep this country perpetually poor and perennially backward. As if there ever was a Filipino who never experienced threats to believe and to have faith in the Word of God! And as if the Word of God has ever stood for human dignity and self-respect for any Filipino living under subhuman conditions in his own Christian country. In the meantime, in this God-forsaken country, we read the bible, if at all, like guilty sinners; hardly do we read the bible like innocent truth-seekers. Poch Suzara

God as a Shining Light

Faithful Christians will at times relate about the experiences of someone dying on the operating table and being “brought back to life.” Some will recount the “near death” experiences where their “soul” was already hovering over, and looking down at their own body… while a celestial being was striving to “guide” them towards a far off “Great Shining Light.”

Isn’t it incredible that the only description available to what God looks like is a “Great Shining Light? And to think during our formative years in grade school, we were already inspired, nay, intimidated to believe that God is existing here, existing there, and existing everywhere watching our every move and jutting down our every sinful thought.

In the meantime, in the Old Testament, Moses queried the burning bush about its identity. In the King James translation the bush replies: “I am that I am.” But the original Hebrew, according to biblical scholars, should actually be translated as “I will be what I will be.”

For my part, I imagine a God identifying himself as either a Great Shining Light, or a Burning Bush, or “I am that I am” while nervously chewing his fingernails. Poch Suzara

In This life

In this life, no matter what, we always find what we consistently look for. Most men and women, however, do not know exactly what they seek in life. True, they seek happiness. Never realizing at the same time that to discover one’s self is far more valuable and lasting than the fulfillment of a momentary desire.

In the meantime, to be ourselves we must complete ourselves. It is, in this way, that we can become the creators of our future and cease to be the slaves of our past. Poch Suzara

Prayers, Not Readers

We are a nation of prayers. We are not, by any standard, a nation of readers. If God, however, does not listen to the prayers of his own Chosen People – the Jews, why should God listen to the prayers of the Filipinos – the Sick Man of Asia? Poch Suzara

Atheism is NOT a Religion

Atheism is NOT a religion. Atheism is unbelief in the existence of the supernatural. We Atheists have no sacred writings that inspires any one to live a life of fear. We have no savior to make any one proud of childish dependency, poverty, ignorance, and misery.

Indeed, we atheists seek enlightenment. We do not kneel down to the threats or the promises of the Old or the New Testament. We would rather pin our hopes and dreams on the creation of a world government.

There is little ethical or anything commonsensical in any of the great religions of the world. Except perhaps for Buddhism, the great religions are criminal by decree. What other institution is there existing in this world that, for the purpose of either winning salvation or resurrection or reincarnation, – the minds and hearts of its respective believers - must first be twisted and distorted and stunted?

Atheism is not a spiritual ineptitude. It is a healthy attitude. Atheism is not a belief, but a lack of childish beliefs. We have no need of faith to have faith in our lack of faith. There is only one kind of atheism in this world. Just as there is only one kind of Multiplication Table – the perfect model of truth.

We atheist love and embrace what atheist Bertrand Russell loved and embraced during most of his 98 years of life: - “The good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge.”

Indeed, we atheist fully appreciate this simple truth: - what the world needs now is not only love but greater knowledge about the nature of love, in all its complexity. Poch Suzara

Broken Marriages

Most marriages do not last because, to begin with, most men need a mother substitute, and most women need a savior. This is not marriage. It is a sacramental joke. In fact, it is a contract for mutual salvation for pain and reciprocal torture especially for the children, if any.

Of course, let’s no ignore the greater evil. Men marry for the sake of what’s menstrual found in between a woman’s legs, and couldn’t care less about what’s functional found in between a woman’s ears. Poch Suzara

Power

The power of the Catholic Church comes from ignorant Catholics. The power of the US government comes from ignorant Americans. Only the ignorant could believe that their power comes from the power of God. Poch Suzara

Truth versus Lies

I used to believe that the search of the truth is life’s most noble adventure. Not anymore. I have changed my mind. I now think the search of lies is a far more creative and productive Especially the lies crank out daily by the media more
referred to as the "freedom of the press." - Poch Suzara

My Own Retraction

It has been predicted that one day, in my death-bed, I will duly retract, on my knees make amends for my errors, go back to God, and plead for divine mercy, and beg for the eternal salvation of my soul!

I say, no way. Me, abandon my faith in heresy? Me, neglect my hopes for a better humanity? Me, surrender my fight for terrestrial sanity? Me, be a disgrace to the human race down here to please divine grace up there? Really, I’d rather kill myself first than be dead devoid of self-respect and human dignity. Poch Suzara

College Graduates

Here are the stark similarities among college educated men and women in the Philippines: first, they all love God; second, they all love Jesus, the Son of God; and third, if they love their country, they are told that it does not matter because there is always a heaven to look forward to as a better world to come after we are all dead and buried. Thus, despite all the hundreds of millions of college educated Filipinos since God knows when, the Philippines remains poor and backward as a nation. Poch Suzara

Evil

If the Son of God Jesus could not remove evil out of Israel, his place of birth, how could Jesus remove evil out of a foreign country like the Philippines? As a matter of historical fact, evil exist in the Philippines not only because of human stupidity, but mainly because of Christianity. Indeed, thanks to Christianity and its teachings, we Filipinos believe that there is a better world to come but only later after we are all well situated buried dead in the cemetery. Poch Suzara

Universal God

A universal God ought to reveal a universal religion. Instead we find Judeo-Christian-Islam religion hating and fighting each other because the revealed truth has not yet been revealed. To which religion of the great religions of the world it will be revealed, if at all, nobody knows! Even the silly theologians haven't the foggiest when or where or how or what or why the Revealed Truth will be revealed! Poch Suzara

Source of Evil

In the Old Testament, God admits he is the source of evil: “I form light and create darkness, I make peace and create evil, I the Lord do all these things.” Isa. 45:7

I feel sorry for the religious morons of this world. When it comes to evil, the Lord is way ahead of man's stupid free will. Poch Suzara

Something Versus Nothing

Why something rather than nothing? Well, why a God and a devil existing alongside God? Both God and the devil keep reminding everyone that this something is really all about nothing because there is a better something to come in the next world after we are all dead and buried and gone to nothing! Poch Suzara

God’s Help

If God in heaven could not settle his troubles with the devil in hell, what makes you people believe that God can settle your troubles on earth? And who is the religious moron who threatened you to believe that God’s help is just a prayer away? Poch Suzara

What If God Does not Exist

A man who says: “if God does not exist, everything is permissible and nothing matters,” is a man who is greedy, selfish, rotten idiot who never bother to look at our troubled world with love and compassion. Poch Suzara

Believers and Fools

What do the believers and the fools share in good faith? They have been indoctrinated to belittle the power of reason. Thus, to readily embrace extra-terrestrial mendacity even at the expense of terrestrial veracity. Poch Suzara

Rizal Wrote

“We can only serve our country by telling the naked truth, however bitter it may be.”

Well, I say, we can only serve our friends and relatives by not being hypocritical or intellectually dishonest towards each other. After all, we all have yet to discover the rare and simple truth, which is rare and never simple. Poch Suzara

Our Greatest Tragedy

Our greatest tragedy in life is being captured with the sacrament of baptism from the cradle and having faith in God up to the grave. At the same time, however, never discovering that these horrors were invented by a gang of crackpots in big business for themselves. Such weirdos always dressed in a woman’s attire have always been among the prominent members of the Board of Directors of the churches of the world. Poch Suzara

God Loves us

God loves us not because of who we are, but because of who He is. Phil. Star Jan 7,2008

Gee God, as you are a God, how come you still allow the devil to exist? He sees to it that we continue to pray daily to you God to lead us not into temptation? Amen! Poch Suzara

Jesus and the Thief

“Lord, remember me when thou comest into they kingdom.” And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To this day shalt thou be with me in paradise.” Luke 23: 42-43

Is it any wonder that ever since then, thieves have played major roles in the spread of the word of God? Golly, these days, they are even the owners and operators of world banks such as the Vatican Bank! Poch Suzara

More Political Promises

"No request is to great or too small to bring to God. Phil Star

It looks like more political promises from the Lord. But the request from Jesus, His only begotten Son, was denied. On the cross, Jesus cried out loud: “My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?” Matt 27:46.

My dear God, is it really that difficult for you to say what you mean and to mean what you say? For Christ’s sake, what are you a God for? Really God, when are you doing to stop this divine drama of yours that amuses no one except Satan – your partner in sin and in crime? Poch Suzara

Religious Drama

“If you ask anything in my name, I will do it.” John 14:14.

It is incredible how the billions of faithful and devoted Christians who already lived and died on this earth – not one of them had the gall to ask the Lord to please destroy the devil. Oh well, a few probably did, but never enjoyed success. I should know, I am one of them! Poch Suzara

Treasures

Treasures in heaven are laid up as treasures on earth are laid down. Phil Star, Dec. 13,2007

Robert Ingersoll was more truthful. He wrote: “The church has always been willing to swap off treasures in heaven for cash down.”

One of the richest, if not the most solid bank existing in the world today is the Vatican bank. Hello!

God’s Forgiveness

To enjoy the future, accept God’s forgiveness for the past. Phil Star Dec. 11/2007

Oh God, again, that is not the issue. Forget that meaningless business of forgiving. Why not try, instead, something more meaningful: - get involved with us Filipinos, do a little evolving yourself, as a manifestation of your divine grace!

After all, yours is the power, kingdom, and the glory as written in the Old and in the New Testament!

We Filipinos have nothing except a corrupt and an inefficient government as guaranteed by a corrupt Constitution. Poch Suzara

Faith in the Gospel

Let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ. . . . stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel. Philippians 1:27. Phil Star January 8/2008.

What ever happened to the conduct worthy of common human decency under social and political sanity for the good of our country?

In the meantime, a man of faith is like a silly drunkard who clings to a lamppost for support, not illumination. Poch Suzara

We are the Sick Victims

We still carry on as the sick victims rather than we should already be the healthy masters of religion. One would think that after all this time, our schools, colleges, and universities should already know what to do in order to remedy the historical horror. Unfortunately, even our teachers in school and professors in universities have no idea as to why, in this already 21st century, we Filipinos know only how to pray to God for forgiveness of our sins and crimes as we still know not whatever else to do. Poch Suzara

Science and Religion

“Almost all of the progress in the world from the earliest times is attributable to science and the scientific temper.” Bertrand Russell. Well, almost all of the troubles that’s been keeping the Filipino poor as a people and the Philippines backward as a nation - have been due to religion and the infantile religious temper. Ask Fr. James Reuter. He is an expert on this evil. He is also the famous American priest in the Philippines who claims to save Filipino souls for God in heaven. In the meantime, George B. Shaw said it: "At present, there is not a single credible religion established in the world." Well, for my part, when I am ask, if science and religion can merge one day, I say yes, they can. But religion must first reconcile with other stupid religions before science can seriously entertain the merger. Poch suzara

Life or Death

Facing death with confidence comes from trusting Christ. Phil Star Jan 10,2008

Well, I ask: what about facing life with a sense of benevolence that comes from human intelligence?

In the meantime, it is truly incredible how we are all subject to birth, life, growth, death, and decay; except God and the devil - his partner in crime. Both supernatural beings exist happily and endlessly together. To think God never even gifted the devil with a Free Will. Poch Suzara

The Poorest People

Among the rich are truly the poor among the poorest of idiots. It is they who have neither the ability nor the intellectual capacity to grasp in any way whatsoever that the worst kind of poverty is the poverty of the mind and heart. Indeed, these poor idiots would rather continue to be the stupid followers rather than try to be the intelligent leaders of our country. To think a great many of them, like our politicians in government, the theologians in church, thieves in corporations, teachers in school, professors in college - are all college educated in the Philippines. Poch Suzara

The Troubles in our World

The troubles in our world begins with the troubles in the human family. Indeed, to begin with, children are the products of sex; not love. We are not the masters of the biological truth, but the victims of theological lies. Life is not a creation of a fictitious creator. As a matter of truth, life is a sexually-transmitted disease with the mortality rate of 100 per percent. Listen, however, to sweet Jesus - the Savior of the world, declaring in the bible: "If any man come to me and hate not his father, and mother, and wife and children, and brethren, yea and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple." Luke 14:26 When I tell my friends and relatives to struggle with me against with the basic troubles of our troubled world, they react by only telling me that they are too busy and that there is nothing we can do anything about it anyway. That no one can remedy the situation. That the struggle for human decency is a waste of time and energy. That we can only try to remedy the horrors of those who are poor and homeless; never, however, can we ever alleviate the horrors of those who are the mindless and the heartless. I insist however: this is our world. This is the world of our children we are dealing with. If we do not speak for this world, our world, who will? I, myself, alone, may not solve the problems of our world. The least I could do, however, is to exclude myself away from among the billions of religious saps and jerks who keep our world always in trouble. Indeed, I should stop having faith in a divine grace that has, in fact, been doing nothing except to perpetually be a disgrace against the human race. For as long as we waste time and energy believing, loving, venerating, and having faith in lies and deceptions, we shall never solve the problems of our troubled world. We shall only need a Savior. But Bertrand Russell had a more creative alternative to solve the evil: He wrote: "What the world needs now is not only love, but also the greater knowledge of the nature of love, in all its complexity." Indeed, "the good life one inspired by love and guided by knowledge." Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Life in America

Life in America means work, work, work to pay your bills, bills, bills. The whole idea is to become rich and famous. Each and every year, however, only about 100 in 1,000,000 American workers make it to the top. The rest continue to work, work, and work. And to pay bills, pay bills, and pay bills for the rest of their lives.

In the meantime, among the rich and famous and the powerful in America are the members of Congress. They do not work, work, and work for the American people; in fact, we the American people work, work, and work to help pay for their bills, bills, and bills. Poch Suzara

The Prince of Darkness

Of course it is not fair to blame God for hiding all the time. Always shying away from the trials and tribulations of man on this earth. After all, in heaven, God enjoys his title role the Prince of Darkness. Poch Suzara

Anger

Anger should be one of the greatest of virtues. Notice, however, in our system of education, we were never taught to get angry; especially at stupid religion that keeps the Filipino sick as a people and that keeps the Philippines sick as a nation. Poch Suzara

To Think

To think that Jesus was a Jewish Son of God, not a Filipino Son of God. And to think further that in this 21st century, Jesus remains as a minor character in the Jewish history of customs and tradition. Poch Suzara

Asian Government Officials

The government officials of other Asian countries do not pray to God. Only the officials of the Philippine government do so daily. And yet, look at the way our government officials are inspired to keep the Filipino people believing that there is a better world to come, but only after we are all dead and buried.

In the meantime, since decades ago, Filipino workers have had better opportunities to enjoy a higher standard of living and thinking working in other non-Christian Asian countries. Poch Suzara

In This Catholic Country

In this Catholic country of sin, crime, poverty, filth, and ill-gotten wealth, there is always something to be grateful for. As for me, I am grateful to the Son of God Jesus that I am no longer a Catholic. I am also grateful that Jesus was not born, raised, and educated as a Catholic in Israel – the land of His birth. Poch Suzara

The Free Bully

God already killed my loved ones – those I happily served and loved; and those who happily served me and loved me. God already killed my brother and dad, my lolos and lolas, my in-laws, most of my uncles and aunties; already a few among my nieces and nephews, cousins; and already killed indeed great friends who rescued me away from religious horrors. Soon God will kill my 95 year old mom, and will have me put to death too any day now. And for all these horrors, I am suppose to love, worship, and adore God? I say: To hell with your free will God! You are nothing but a free bully. Poch Suzara

Judgment Day

During Judgment Day facing God almighty, this will be the nature of my defense: “God, you gifted me with 70 years of free will, but why did you also gifted the devil – your real enemy – not only free will but worst, you gave him centuries of free existence to freely do more evil than I could be free to imagine? Poch Suzara

Go ye Teach all Nations

And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying: All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Matt. 28: 18-20

In the last judgment, how would Jesus and his disciples explain to God their sad failure in converting Israel - the land of their own birth from the Jewish religious land into Christianity in general, or into Catholicism in particular? Poch Suzara

Jesus – Not a Reader

Jesus warned: “If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14:26

Too bad Jesus never read the Old Testament especially where it warns: “He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind.” Proverbs 11:29 Poch Suzara

Evolution versus Revelation

The universe in its immensity, and life in general in its complexity require not an intelligent designer, but simply - an explanation. Happily, the science of evolution has been a more reliable explanation as compared to the religion of revelation. Indeed, in science, there is always that beauty of simplicity. In religion, there is only that putridity behind the perplexity of a mystery for love of a divinity in cahoots with deviltry out there while we are suppose to enjoy human stupidity down here. Poch Suzara

Fear God

Those who fear God need not fear the world. Phil Star Dec. 31, 2007.

It is truly incredible. Imagine an all-powerful God, a Supernatural Being, the creator of the billions of stars and planets out there. He enjoys the situation where He is being feared by no less than silly human beings struggling to survive on this speck of dust lost in the immensity of space and time known as the planet Earth. Poch Suzara

Our Unknown Future

Our unknown future is secure in the hands of our all-knowing God. Phil. Star Dec. 26, 2007

It is truly incredible that in this 21st century an All-knowing God still does not know how we, his children, the human race, continue to be mutually destructive to each other. We continue to be the stupid victims and not, as we should be, the intelligent masters of the great religions in this world? Poch Suzara

Life and Death

There is no such thing as the hereafter because there is no such thing as the herebefore.

Since I did not exist in the infinite past, why and how could I exist in the infinite future? Life after death has always been a promise based upon a tall story. Mostly derived from silly theology – the study of nothing in order to have faith in nothing to keep the faithful under control for the glory of nothing. Poch Suzara

Sins and Lawless Deeds

“Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.” Hebrews 8:12

Oh God, that is not the issue. The issue has always been: how come you help those who can help themselves, but never, have you ever, helped to prevent sins and lawless deeds especially those committed in thy name? Poch Suzara

We Still Believe

We still believe, like the religious morons still do believe, that in obeying, serving, supporting, and loving the Catholic Bishops, it is exactly the same thing as obeying, serving, supporting, and loving God. We are, indeed, the Sick Man of Asia.

God himself never introduced Himself to us in person. It has always been the priesthood industry who taught us to fear and to have faith, especially blind faith in the existence of God.

In the meantime, where is God? Ask any Catholic Bishop. Since they themselves do not know, they will only threaten you with eternal damnation for asking such heretical questions. Poch Suzara

Religious Morons

The religious morons carry on with this life as if it were only a rehearsal for the better life to come after death.

Hey, wake up! This is it. This is the only life we have. This is the only world we have. There is nothing else but - the here and the now. There is no such thing as another life after we are dead. As a matter of fact, if nobody knows anything about life after birth, how could anybody know of anything about life after death? Poch Suzara

War and Religion

War and religion have always been about big business. One sells - ammunition; the other - salvation. In war, hate is created. In religion, fear is created. In fact, historically, both war and religion have always been allied together, always in cahoots together. War and religion have always have been and still are the greatest evils that continue to make the few rich richer, and to make the many poor poorer. Poch Suzara

Reason and Authority

In the Old Testament, the Lord says: “Come, let us reason together.” Isa. 1:18.

In the New Testament, however, the Lord abandons reason to impose bloody authority. “But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them for me.” Luke 19:27. Poch Suzara

God In Darkness

Before God created light in the 4th day, there was only miserable darkness. Is there a theologian out there who can explain how God managed to exist happily in total darkness before he created light? Aside from the fact of course that God was already enjoying his title as the “Prince of Darkness.” Poch Suzara

Abused Children

It has been fully recognized that an abused child quite frequently will grow into being an abusive adult. I know. Most of my teachers in grade school and high school at De La Salle University were painfully abusive. For God’s sake on this earth and for his glory in heaven, my teachers wanted me to learn. However, they too never bothered to learn with me. I often tried to tell my teachers that questions are always far important than the answers – they punished me physically for my impertinence. Thank God it is now my turn to punish them as they continue to have faith in academic stupidity. Poch Suzara
