Happy Birthday Jose Rizal, June 19, 1861

Dr. Jose Rizal, HAPPY BIRTHDAY – 6/19/2014 - I should wish to report to you again this year more of the same I reported to you in spirit during the previous years. Your enemies – those in authority who had you arrested, jailed, and executed – are still here. They are still much in authority over the minds and hearts of our people. Your enemies are still in authority in control of most of our schools, colleges, and universities. They still basically teach the nation’s youth how to pray - how solve real problems by reaching out to fantasy solutions. It is of course the worst possible training any youth can have for their outreach to emotional growth and intellectual maturity. Worse yet, the nation’s youth are still impressed upon to believe that after birth – there is a better foreign country to go to; like after death – there is a better next world to go to. Oh yes Sir, we continue to be the same silly victims of indoctrination, not the intelligent masters of education. We are still into the religious way of believing than we should already be into the scientific way of thinking. Indeed, we continue to ignore science to help us develop as a nation of dignified men and self-respecting women. We filipinos are still a herd of fanatical bigots who would solve the problems of evil with more evils. Such as, in the end, no matter what – with the power of prayer to a supreme power somewhere out there – such power will always provide for us down here. Sir, even more painful to admit, millions of Filipinos continue to contribute daily to keeping the Philippines twisted spiritually and distorted morally. We continue to add on to our already needless population growth. The religious morons of our sick society continue to insist that there is no such thing as overpopulation problem today in the Philippines. They still insist that our society has not, as yet, surpassed the economic basis for providing Filipinos with adequate food, housing, and schooling. That there is still plenty of room in the Philippines even for a population to grow up 200 million Filipinos. And so, an average of 3 babies are born every minute of the day or 1.8 million babies born yearly in the Philippines. When they grow up, such babies are also taught in school to refer to the same bible for moral growth and spiritual development. Indeed, the same bible that teaches us to love not this world, neither the things that are in this world; and to take no thought for tomorrow for tomorrow will take care of itself. In the meantime, life in general in the Philippines can only be characterized as the daily competition to be the criminal rather than be the victim of the criminals. Sir, again this year, as it was during the previous years, the politicians in government serve our country not by telling the bitter truth, but by telling sweet lies. The sweeter the lies, the sweeter their promotion in government office. Ours continue to be a government of the corrupt, by the corrupt, and for the corrupt. To think that the worst kind of poverty is the poverty of the mind. Such horrors come from our schools, colleges, and universities. Take a serious look at the millions of our college educated men and women all working not for our country’s growth and development, but employed in foreign countries enjoying economic prosperity as generated by the power of science and technology. The kind of wealth that comes from science which is all about the courage to change and to improve under a self-correcting enterprise. Sir, you were certainly a real hero during your century. You were a man of truth and due to your truthfulness, the Catholic church had you arrested, incarcerated, and publicly executed. Today, in our own century, instead of heroes, what we have in our God-fearing country are God-fearing politicians indoctrinated to have more faith in blind faith, not to make use of the power of knowledge and its diffusion. Our politicians would readily pray to a divinity - to remedy the traditional ills of our sick society. Nobody seems to pay any serious attention to remedy the rotten to the core sick system of education - the root cause of our stagnation as a nation bereft of any sense of civilization. Yours sincerely, Poch Suzara, Senior citizen, La Salle High School Expelled Student 1950 Pasay city, Philippines

The Frightened Atheists

I envy the gays and the lesbians. Decades ago, they were laughed at, threatened, insulted, maltreated, ostracized, frightened, beaten, tortured, lynched, burned, and hanged. But they stood their ground to vigorously fight hatred and bigotry. Today, the gays and lesbians are the accepted parts of mainstream society. They are in government as politicians, in church as priests and nuns, in trade and commerce as businessmen and businesswomen, in schools, colleges, and universities as teachers and professors, creative artist in the advertising industry, actors and actresses in the film industry, golly they are even loved moms and respected dads raising decent children. Except the frightened atheists. We are still behaving like a bunch of intimidated freaks. Instead of evolving publicly; we would rather be recoiling privately. We are still afraid to expose the power of knowledge that got us to be atheists to begin with. We are still hiding inside the dark closet. For Christ’s sake, there are even existing atheist today who are famous authors, lawyers, educators, philosophers, and scientists but they are among the first idiots to intimidate fellow atheist not to identify our true identity in public as “atheist.” After all, they insists: the word “atheist” connotes something of a criminal, if not some kind of an animal. In this 21st century, we atheists are left out like a bunch of crippled idiots in a quagmire stuck away from the decent struggle to promote tolerance for our rights to openly exist too. We continue to be frightened hiding under the pressure from those who enjoy exalting fear and fanaticism for and in this world that forever needs feeding. Poch Suzara - The Father of Atheism in the Philippines

Phony Atheists

As a matter of historical fact there are billions of phony atheists in this world than there are genuine atheists. The Christians are atheists according to the Muslims because the Christians do not believe in the existence of Allah. The Muslims are atheists according to the Christians because the Muslims do not believe in the existence of God. Indeed, a billion Muslims and a billion Christians only believe in the existence of their own respective unique supernatural being. We, the real atheists, have no belief system in any kind of God. We have nothing biblical or Koranical or Talmudical going on for us . We are ethical. We are neither vicious nor malicious. Atheists do not hate and kill other atheists in foxholes. In fact, there are no atheists in foxholes. Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Charitable Organizations

Notice anything peculiar about charitable organizations helping the poor? None of them would encourage countries, for example like the Philippines, to seriously practice family planning and birth control measures to help curtail the arrival of poor children into our already very sick populace. After all poverty comes from the population growth, and the more the population grows the business is more profitable for the charitable organizations. An average of three babies are born every minute of the day and night in the Philippines. That’s 1.8 million babies a year. Or 18 million babies in 10 years. Indeed, in the year 2020, the Philippine population will have reached between 140 million Filipinos. What a windfall for the charitable businesses! One such charitable organization is the World Mission. Golly, they are so wealthy now in that they can even afford to publish a prestigious first-class magazine to distribute to all potential charity donors throughout the world. Indeed, charitable organizations make certain that the war against poverty is never won. That it should never be finalized and accomplished. The show must go on! In the name of the Lord Jesus - charity business is big business. Poch Suzara

St. Paul

In spite of all the “trials, hardships, afflictions, floggings, imprisonment, riots, fatigue, sleepness nights and days of hunger, ( 2 Cor. 6:4-5 ) he endured, the Apostle never shrank from his missionary passion. He wrote: “ I consider life of no importance to me, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to bear witness to the Gospel of God’s grace.” Acts 20:24.
I ask: Where precisely in hell were the type of men like St. Paul to be found among the cruel Spanish friars. Specially like those who arrived in the 16th century to brutally conquer the Philippines with the greatest of all evil otherwise more known as Christianity? Golly, these religious morons even had our Jose Rizal executed for exposing the true nature of the existence of the Catholic Church in the Philippines. Poch Suzara

Alien Life

To believe that the universe may harbor aliens living in other planets is not an important issue. The real issue is: If those alien started out also like Adam and Eve and who were guilty of the original sin that got our emotionally insecure creator all riled up over nothing? Poch Suzara

God as a Supernatural Bully

“Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.” Acts 5:29.
This is all fine and great and dandy. But where is God? How do we obey God when he is never found anywhere? Why is God never directly involved with our troubles and problems? God is never omni-present; in fact, only always omni-absent. How does one obey the existence of a nothing in fantasy? Isn’t it more sensible to obey the existence of a something in reality? Gee God, why are you such a big show off? A supernatural I-don’t-give-a-damn invisible bully?
Fearless men have only to think; frightened children have only to worship. Poch Suzara

The State of Our World

Look at the mess in our world so full of fear and hate and pain and suffering and violence. Only because millions upon millions of victims still believe as true what’s written in the stupid bible, or what’s written in the stupid Koran, or what’s written in the stupid Talmud!
In the meantime, divinity in this people is so overwhelming; but humanity in them can only be described as the lowest form of insanity.
Our world have yet to progress not only locally, but especially globally. And progress can only mean the progress of ideas not for the sake of a belligerent divinity, but only for intelligent humanity. Poch Suzara

Religious Morons

There are so many kinds of religious morons. My favorite is the one who proudly reveals his contempt for man’s ability to think.
There are also those who did not make wrong decisions, but that indecision has taken over their empty, if not misguided, rudderless - lives. Indeed, they know not even whether they are coming or going. They have allowed one kind of fear to dominate their lives, and so all other kinds of fears dominate them we well. Poch Suzara

Imagine

Imagine a God who loves you much only because you fear him much. What could be more silly and insane? It is incredible to believe that a creator, able to create billions of galaxies but nevertheless enjoys fear from the religious morons on this speck of dust called earth. As if the creator were that emotionally insecure? At any rate, it must be a wonderful feeling to fear God. After all, fear is most flattering to God. Fear inspires God to forgive our sins and crimes and indeed forgive our stupidity especially the kind that promotes social and political insanity. Poch Suzara

Morally Bankrupt Pinoys

Mary was the Jewish mother of God. Jesus was the Jewish son of God. All the apostles of Jesus were Jewish apostles. God himself was a Jewish God.
It is, in this way, that it is not incredible to believe that millions of Pinoys contribute daily to continue moving the Philippines backward by referring to their stupid bible as their guidance.
In the meantime, we Pinoys are so entrenched in moral bankruptcy in that we could not even pride ourselves with inventing our own unique family of Asiatic Gods. Hoy! Gising na! Poch Suzara

Biblical Insanity

Millions of readers do not agree with each other as to what’s written in the bible. How could they? The inspired bible authors themselves do not agree with each other. I say, it is time to throw your bible out the window.
No doubt, it is true, there is just about something in the bible for everybody; except the Revealed Truth. It has not yet been revealed to anybody.
In the meantime, it is hard to believe that a creator of the billions of galaxies comprising trillions of stars could inspire sick authors to write the sick bible for the beings called Filipinos living in this speck of dust called as the Philippines on this planet earth! Poch Suzara

Cain and Abel

God was nowhere to be found to assist Adam Eve to raise and educate Cain and Abel to grow up like decent men and be creative and independent as individuals. After all, Cain and Abel were the first grandsons of God. Too bad God had to be attending to more important matters. He was too busy as a divinity screwing around with deviltry. To think Cain murdered his only brother Abel. The crime was caused by deviltry as inspired by divinity. What kind of holy hogwash is genesis all about as a basis for religiosity? Poch Suzara

Losers, Failures, and Fools

Jesus declared that the first will be the last, that the weak will be the strong, and that the fools will be the wise.
Jesus was not a friend of the victor, strong, or the wise. On the contrary, Jesus was the prophet of the losers, failures, and the fools. Is it any wonder that Jesus got crucified on the cross by the losers, failures, and fools - all created in the image and likeness of God! Poch Suzara

The Study of Nothing

It is ironic that theology has always been the study of nothing. The most that the theologians have accomplished was to give birth to atheism. Indeed, we atheists do not and can not believe, love, worship, or adore the existence of nothing. But credit must be due the theologians. Their grand policy is to blow hot and to blow cold, to afflict and to console, to frighten and to reassure. Everybody’s impressed; except the atheists. We think the theologians could have lived a more creative life had they been, instead, clowns in a circus, or comedians on a stage. Poch Suzara

The Greatest Discovery

What changed our world from ancient to a modern one was due to the greatest discovery of all time: human beings can alter their lives by altering their childish attitudes and by discarding their infantile beliefs.

In the meantime, it is the peculiarity of the mindless and the thoughtless to prefer the unknown, the fabulous, the wonderful, the incredible, even the terrible to that which is clear, simple, honest, and true. Poch Suzara

More Impressive

It would be more impressive if we could be honest enough to admit that our beliefs have little to do with reason, but with more on faith which is the enemy of reason. Indeed, reason and faith are opposites, two mutually exclusive terms: there is no reconciliation or common ground between them. Faith is belief without, or in spite of, reason. Thus, Christian faith is not only faith beyond reason but must also be against reason. In the meantime, reason is not one tool you can choose to grab from a tool box. Reason is the entire tool box itself. Poch Suzara

Wars

Wars have mostly been about the rich getting richer, and to get the poor poorer. Among the rich are the religious organizations. They thrive on hate and poverty and violence for the glory of God in heaven or for the glory of Allah in paradise or for the greedy and insane munition makers of America fully supported and endorsed by an insane government - the US government. Poch Suzara

Matthew

“Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.” Matt. 10:30
Matthew could have made more sense had he been a circus clown and not a bible writer. It is laughable to believe that a God inspired Matthew to write this kind of spiritual hogwash. Golly, we live on a speck of dust called earth lost in the immensity of space and time. Human life is but a split second long, a wink of an eye, a flash in the pan compared to the life of the universe. But, according to Matthew, the Lord seems to welcome his own anxiety as long human stupidity will last as long as infinity? Poch Suzara

Conscious Fear

In this country, as soon as you are born, the elderly around you, especially the priesthood industry, immediately take advantage of your unconscious fear. They indoctrinate you to learn to be conscious of fear for the rest of your life. Thus, from birth to death, we experience mostly the fear of life itself. It is, in this way, that we would sooner take the cowardly road to follow the insanity of others by neglecting our own courageous path towards the achievement of our own sense of humanity. Poch Suzara
