2 Million Babies

3 babies are born every minute of the day and night in the Philippines. It amounts to about 2 million babies added each and every year to the needless Filipino population growth. It guarantees nothing but more squalor, more misery, and more poverty for our already sick society.

In the meantime, the frightened God-fearing politicians of our corrupt God-fearing government have not ceased declaring they will fight poverty. We have yet to hear them publicly declare that they will fight for family planning and birth control measures as a matter of national policy. Indeed, as a matter of establishing common human decency in the Philippines!

Indeed, religion encourages endless stupidity and an insufficient sense of stark reality that totally negates learning from history. Poch Suzara

Teachers and Professors

Those incapable of higher or deeper learning have taken to teaching... Indeed, for the most part, we are all the victims, not the masters of - education. Our teachers in school, and professors in college teach the same subject year in and year out – most of it obsolete especially on what to believe, and not on how to think. Most of it about old answers; hardly ever about new questions. As if knowledge should only be based upon authority and therefore static and not creative. In fact, knowledge and its growth and development should always be based upon the power of reason and therefore prolific, if not always elastic... For my part, as a little boy, I was always eager to learn things until my parents enrolled me in a Catholic school. Bad teaching made me stupid and fearsome. And so I engineered my own expulsion out of high school in order to save what was left of my distorted mind and twisted heart... We must always remember how limited our present knowledge must be, and in what unexpected ways it is likely to grow and develop. If there centuries were yet to come for mankind, the logic, mathematics, and science of this century will become obsolete. Just as much as the logic, mathematics, and science of the previous centuries have become obsolete in this century. Poch Suzara

Karen Armstrong

Karen Armstrong, in her insightful book - A HISTORY OF GOD, has demonstrated that Jews, Christians, and Muslims were all at one time accused of being atheists when their ideas began to challenge the popular religious wisdom of their day.

For my part, in this 21st century, I need not be accused of atheism. I already openly declared and publicly admitted that I am an atheist whether you like it or not. I am not only challenging the popular religious wisdom of our day. What I am also saying, again and again, is that if we hope to save our world from further destruction, we must all become atheists and learn to embrace the peace, tranquility, and the beauty of atheism.

Indeed, consider the history of our world. There isn't one atheistic country anywhere, at any time, that declared war against another atheistic country for not believing in God.Poch Suzara

Woe Unto the Lord God Himself

"Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!" Isaiah 5:20

Woe therefore unto the Lord God Himself who clearly declared: “I form the light and create darkness: I make peace and create evil: I the Lord do these things.” Isaiah 45:7 Poch Suzara

The Art of Habitual Reading

The greatest lesson we can teach children is the art of habitual reading; especially to read properly and thoroughly the holy bible. In this way, children could begin to learn why we are a sick people existing under an insane society.

Consider sick messages from the bible as written by inspired authors of God: “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.” John 1:15

Or such unhealthy militaristic messages from our loving and kind Savior, the Prince of Peace, the Almighty Son of God Jesus who declared in Luke 19:27 "But those mine enemies, which would not that I reign over them, bring hither, and slay them for me."

During my grade school and high school years at De la Salle, we were not allowed to read to bible. We were not also allowed to read Jose Rizal’s Noli and Fili. Other than books sold to us for class usage, we are not allowed to read the so-called “bad books.” In fact, we were taught mostly and mainly how to be active in prayers, not creative nor imaginative or even to be inquisitive as readers.

God as a Burning Bush

We are told that God is not a material, but a spiritual being. Yet in the bible, God is described as a Burning Bush, Exodus 3:1-15. So how come God, as a Burning Bush, eventually got to be materially omni-absent, and not ever more omni-present? It is possible that the Burning Bush actually evolved and relocated itself to the White House in America and renamed itself - President George W. Bush. Poch Suzara

Love versus Hate in the Bible

"He who loves God must love his brother also.” 1 John 4:21. Not, however, according to the Son Of God. In fact, Jesus said: “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. Poch Suzara

Life After Death Malarkey

When I say that there is no life after death, I am quickly told: isn’t that a little depressing? Well, isn’t it more depressing if you believe in life after death? Please read your own bible? “The dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward for the memory of them is forgotten.” Eccl. 9:5 Can you also imagine eternal existence without a mind and the capacity to think. With what ears will you hear? With what eyes will you see? With what mouth, lips, and voice box will you speak? With what hand will you feel? What teeth? With what brain will you comprehend? AGAIN a verse from the BIBLE confirms: “For the fate of the sons of men and the fate of the beasts is the same; as one dies, so dies the other; they all have the same breath, and man has no advantage over the beasts; for all is vanity. All go to one place; all are from dust, and all turn to dust again." Ecclesiastes, 3:19-20 Never for one moment would you think of your continued life other than in your present form. You want to think that your body, your personality, will be intact. You would find it disgusting that in the after life you will a piece of dust floating in the cosmos. You want to be you. This is what is so pathetic about life after death. You are what is stored in your brain cells. When that rots after you die, all is gone. Your unique individual personality is no more. It's caput! Esta Jodido! At death the cerebral functions cease; there is no more thought process, no reward, no memory, no knowledge, and no access to this world. Death terminates an individual's interaction with this physical dimension of existence. The Bible again clearly states that there's no life after death: “As the cloud is consumed and vanishes away, so he that goeth down to the grave shall come up no more.” Job 7:9 That is why it makes more sense to value your life in the here and now. Life is for the living. Go for it; get to the exercise. In the meantime, never belittle the power of your brain – a three pound mass you can hold in your little hand that can discover the galaxies of a trillion stars. Poch Suzara

The Religious Morons

The religious morons are asking me how come as an atheist I am able to quote bible verses left and right with much ease and self-confidence?

Well, Listen to Issac Asimov: “Properly read, the bible is the most potent force for atheism ever conceived."

And to think the bible is a book for the believers, not for the atheists. And yet,
we atheists are more familiar of its contents than most of you religious morons are conversant with either the Old or the New Testament. Poch Suzara

Knowledge

Knowledge is not only power, it is priceless. By applying knowledge we can make our future what we wish it to be. Indeed, in life, we will always find what we are looking for. Or, what we can conceive, we can achieve. When we realize that our present character, our present status in life, our present ability or disability, our present health or the lack of it are all the result of past methods of thinking, we shall begin to have some conceptions of the value and the power of knowledge.

As to what exactly is happening to us - the Sick Man of Asia in this already 21st century living in a hopeless, directionless, if not aimless nation, HELLO you millions of college educated Christians!

In the meantime, a nation that believes there is a better world to come out there after death is not likely to give attention to the needs of the next generation. Poch Suzara

People Power

People power in the Philippines is more about people than about power.
As a matter of historical fact, we are a powerless people because, to begin with, we sell our votes to the corrupt politicians during election time.
If power were the production of intended results, look at us in our own country – the Philippines – the only Christian country in Asia, especially with our so-called Christian values and beliefs.

We have more of the same nothing as results from political concoction inextricably mixed with religious degradation than we do have powerful results from intellectual, cultural, scientific, and industrial production. Poch Suzara

Poor Filipinos Under Civilization

I am told that God loves the poor. He created so many of them. What a cheap lie. God created the poor in his own image and likeness even though God himself has always been very rich and powerful. Look the Vatican bank that God created, owns, and control? It now has a deposit of trillions of dollars in cash, titles to prime properties and assets, tons of jewelries, tons of gold bullions, and art works, stocks and bonds, etc! No doubt, God loves the poor; but he loves his wealth and power much more than he loves the poverty-stricken; especially those enjoying free will in the Philippines – the only Christian country in Asia since the 16th century. In the meantime, Christianity has taught us to believe that man does not live by bread alone. Well, take a look at civilization under the inspiration of Christian values and beliefs – our civilization has made sure that not everyone should be provided with bread in our poor and backward society. No, this is not suffering. It is called “SACRIFICE” for the glory of God, according to God's priesthood industry. Poch Suzara

The Faitheists – My Enemy

How boring and empty life would be if we have nothing to hate. For my part, I am glad of the existence of the faitheists. I hate them all with a passion. They are my enemy. No, I have no desire to kill them. In fact, I would like to keep them alive. In this way, we can continue debating again each other. I should be among the first to defend their rights to exist in this world.

In the meantime, devoid of hate, and having no enemies to hate - makes for an empty, unhappy and, indeed, boring and meaningless life. Poch Suzara

The whole idea

The whole idea of going to grade school, high school, and college is to prepare you to be fuckable if you were male; and to be equally fuckable if you were female.

Indeed, we live as we must only work for the powers-that-be. In the meantime, in this world, there is no such thing as the struggle for existence. There is only the struggle to fuck each other around especially for the sake of keeping the powers-that-be in power.

I did not have to finish my high school years to see this truth. I refuse to cater to the powers-that-be. I walked out of high school by getting myself expelled. Indeed, whether we are male or female - we are all born ignorant, not stupid. We are made stupid by education. Poch Suzara

Nothing is Impossible with God

Nothing is impossible with God! No Kidding? How come it has always been impossible with God to stop screwing around with the devil? As a matter of fact, God, always happy and contented screwing around with the devil, and the devil, always so appreciative and satisfied, sees to it that we also never stop praying daily to God to “lead us not into temptation. Amen.” Poch Suzara

The Manny Pacquiao I Should Wish to respect and Admire

All the congressmen admire and respect and envy you, why in hell would you want to lower your great status in this world by wanting to be another stupid politician in congress? You are the only Filipino who became rich and famous not owing to lies, deception, or stealing, or by corruption, or even by being submissive or subservient to any foreign exploitation. With much self-respect and dignity - you did it with your own talents and abilities in the field of sports – boxing. I respect and admire Manny. I have every hope he will contribute greatly to the growth and development of the sports industry of the Philippines. Indeed, more and more Filipino athletes could show the world what we Filipinos are capable of achieving without having to resort to degradation, corruption, or superstition, or even to brain exportation. Indeed, no great achievement is possible without discipline, persistent hard work, dedication , and financial support. In the meantime, I have every hope that Manny Pacquiao will soon drop that silly habit of his making the sign of the cross before a fight; especially against a fellow Catholic boxer. As if he is still a thoughtless little boy under the inspiration of a silly, equally thoughtless, anti-Pinoy Jewish divinity. Poch Suzara

Love

Love is a dirty trick played on men to believe that one woman differs from another. The plain fact is that women are all born equal as men. In fact, man is woman and woman is man with the slight difference that does not matter except on special occasions. Of course men in love with their own stupidity call it “free will.” The women in love with financial security call it “good will.” As if there is such an animal existing anywhere on this earth known as “financial security.”

Funny how men believe as they have been indoctrinated to believe that God will provide; even for the mother of his abandoned children.

For many years I was one such religious moron myself. I believed in this male/female bullshit religious arrangement taught to me to believe through Christ, our Lord, Amen.

Today however, as an atheist and a freethinker, I do not want my woman to be involved in any form of rat-race because it is so obvious that even if she wins, she will still turn out to be a rat. No doubt we all have to earn a living. We do not have to do so by throwing away our pride, honor, self-respect, especially throwing away our power of intellect to question EVERYTHING.

In fact, show me that you are a woman of substance, and not a woman of pittance, and I will never let you go. I will stick by you, come hell or high waters, for the rest of my life. Poch Suzara

Pinoys and Pinays Overseas

It is amusing to see Pinoys and Pinays live and work in foreign countries. They certainly earn higher wages. They continue, however, to be down with poverty, especially poverty of the worse kind – the poverty of the mind and heart. They seem not able to enrich themselves with courage, especially intellectual courage. They only continue to carry on with the mentality of financial timidity rather than begin to enjoy the beauty of self-respect and the power of human dignity. Indeed, they have yet to learn how to live and to enjoy the search of the truth - especially as the truth has no need for an army, a navy, or an air force to be on its side.

In the meantime, none of the higher mental processes are required for conservatism, sensationalism, alcoholism, Americanism, sexism, or, for that matter - Catholicism. Poch Suzara

Jesus

Jesus in the bible said: “I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live. And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believeth thou this.” John 11:25-26

Can any of you faitheists explain in simple language this horror: What are the millions of faithful and devoted Christians including our own loved-ones doing dead and buried and rotting in the lifeless cemetery if there is life after death?

Now Jesus in the same bible says with great pride: “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 14:6

Crucified on the cross, however, Jesus cried out loud: “My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?” Mark 15:34

Could any of you bible scholars and readers - explain what’s really going on here? Earlier, like in Matthew 3:17, God openly declared: “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” What’s happening here? A change of heart? What kind of loving Gods are these supernatural beings? – the Savior of mankind! Poch Suzara

Corruption in the Philippines

Corruption in the Philippines in this 21st century? Take a good look at corruption in the Philippines in the 19th century.

Jose Rizal wrote in 1886: “In the catalogue of human ills there is to be found a cancer so malignant that the least touch inflames it and cause agonizing pains; afflicted with such a cancer, a social cancer, and seeking the best care for your ills, I shall do with you what was done in ages past with the sick. I shall endeavor to show your condition, faithfully and ruthlessly. I shall lift a corner of the veil which shrouds the disease, sacrificing to the truth everything, even self-love – for, as your son, your defects and weaknesses are also mine.”

Today in our sick and insane society, millions upon millions of college-educated men and women hardly know the real Jose Rizal one of the greatest thinkers the world has ever produced. Under pains of going to hell forever, millions have been frightened to believe that before he was executed by firing squad, as authorized by the power of the Catholic church, Rizal cried by a little boy, begged to go to confession, heard mass, received communion, and retracted. After which never was he even given a Catholic burial, his remains just put inside an old sack and then thrown in Paco cemetery.

Rizal retracted? What brazen lies told and spread by the Spanish catholic friars who, at best, were all a bunch of religious clowns; at worst, a gang of religious criminals as the protectors, if not the managers of the wealth and power of the Catholic church. Poch Suzara
