women in need of Cathedrals

Cathedrals, like the Manila Cathedral, are monuments to human stupidity. Name me one cathedral anywhere built on this piece of dust called "earth" that has promoted family unity, social and political decency, not to mention women's rights for self-respect and dignity.

In the meantime, if it is true that God already exists here and there and everywhere - why in hell would God need cathedrals for his glory in heaven to enhance not human civilization on this earth, but to promote himself as a supernatural being so engrossed in self-admiration as he hopes to prove that he is, eternally, a cold-blooded perfection?

Religion in the Philippines

The Catholic and Iglesia Ni Cristo are the dominant evils in the Philippines. There is also, however, El Shaddai, Jesus is Lord Movement, Dating Daan, Opus Dei, Presbyterian, Methodist, Anglican, Unitarian, Baptist, United Church of God, istian Churches of God, Christ’s Commission Fellowship, Born-Again, Metropolitan Community Church, Most Holy churches of God, New Apostolic, Aglipay religion – all Christians; not to mention the non-Christian religion in the minority – Muslim, Buddhists, Hinduists, Animists, Taoist, and the Nichiren Daishonin teachings, etc. It is truly tragic that religion has been based not upon human intelligence, but based on fear of a divine malevolence. Otherwise, if religion were always creative, constructive, and the spread of benevolence, the Philippines, once known as the "Pearl of the Orient" before Christianity arrived to conquer and to dominate her, need not be famous today as the "Payatas of the Orient." Thanks, however, to our system of education, religion, or better said – superstition - holds a central place in the hearts and minds of the majority of Filipinos. It is, in this way, that we can even take pride of the fact that our non-Christian Asian neighbors are able to hire our blessed by God college educated men and women to be employed as their blessed by God “servants.” Meanwhile, back home, have we ever heard of a Filipino who got to be filthy rich for believing that God is BAD. And yet, millions upon millions of Filipinos are poor despite the fact that they all have been educated to believe that God is GOOD. In this already 21st century, for the glory of divinity, we continue to believe that "freedom of religion" is good. On the contrary, as a matter of historical fact, what shows to be much more sane is the "freedom from religion." Matured and progressive other Asian nations are irreligious, not religious. Scientific, not ecclesiastic. Atheistic, not theistic. It is, indeed, incredible to realize that our Asian neighbors do not have faith in Jesus who preached that we must take no thought for tomorrow because there is a better world to come after death. What we Filipinos always see and feel around us is that God is deeply involved in our birth, education, marriage, population growth, politics, culture, history, and death; not to mention also involved with our government officials, military leaders, businessmen, traders, and farmers. Sadly, however, this God is not a Filipino God, but a Jewish God. It is truly amazing how we Filipinos continue to tolerate the poverty of ideas that compel us to submit, in this modern day and age, to the uselessness of prayer rally and to the recklessness of ancient, if not obsolete, - theology. Thus, what we continue to cherish in our poor and backward country is not human evolution under a growing civilization, but to wait only for the miracles from God as promised by divine revelation. Nothing is precious in the life of a Filipino except the very best that his talents and abilities can achieve for his family, his country, and for fellow-citizens. Especially in the here and now. After all, there is no such thing as the "hereafter" since, for any of us, there never was any such thing as the "herebefore." In the meantime, by and large, our schools, colleges, and universities continue to teach how to ignore nation-wide mutual destruction. We have yet, however, to learn how to attend to the more desirable scientific technique of nation-wide cooperation and general affection for the sake of national restoration via transformation. I ask: where is science, the beauty of the scientific way of thinking, and the efficiency of technology to generate our spiritual growth as a people so that as Filipinos, we can generate our material development as a nation? It is time for our system of education to change radically. Precisely to produce more brave leaders and courageous thinkers. No longer to produce believers and followers having more fun in the temptation for holy corruption. Otherwise, in the centuries to come, we Filipinos will just continue to be blessed by God as a poo people and a blessed by God as a backward nation. Poch Suzara

A Pinay Friend

A Pinay friend told me that she enjoyed her love life with her past
boyfriend in the Philippines. But now working in a foreign country,
she admits that she enjoys her love life pretty much more. It is not
because foreigners are more seductive or attractive or attentive.
It is because the business arrangement is for her simply much more
lucrative.

Well, I said: What a poor sap of a boyfriend she has left behind in
the Philippines. He has turned out to be nothing to her but a fucking
idiot.

For my part, I wish, however, for our women with dignity and self-respect
all the change, improvement, luck, wealth, and happiness in foreign countries.

It is Truly Ironical

It is truly ironical that the God still pretty much involved in our
system of education, politics, culture, history; not to mention
also much involved with our corrupt government officials, military
leaders, business, trade and commerce – is not a Filipino God, but
a Jewish God. Poch Suzara

Filipino Children

The majority of Filipino children in grade school are taught to believe not only in the unknown, but specially to have faith in anything not worth knowing. By the time they are in high school and in college, with their intelligence already pretty much twisted and distorted, they are no longer capable of learning what is knowable especially common sense. Such as love of life, country, and love of fellow citizens. On the contrary, taught to love only God up there who will always provide for all of us down here. To believe further that there is a better world to come after death. Never mind this world after birth. This is a world of people, nature, and the flesh that's low and depraved and unworthy of reconstruction. Indeed, that this world is merely a stopover on our journey to the next better world. Therefore the less attention placed on it and more attention placed on God's kingdom, the better for the salvation of our souls. Consider the plight of most of our college educated men and women. They are prepared, ready, and willing to live and to work in foreign countries that enjoy a higher standard of living and blessed with the power of down-to-earth thinking. In the meantime, we Filipinos are also getting more famous as the "Servants of the World." Thus, in our own country, we are all born ignorant, not stupid. We are made stupid by education.

If Only Our Women

If only our women as products of our schools, colleges, and universities were seriously taught to pursue higher status in life other than just to fuck, get pregnant, propagate, and to replenish the Philippines with more babies for the glory of God in heaven. There would be more economic prosperity and less poverty in our already sick society. To think that the worst kind of poverty is the poverty of the mind and heart. To think further that human life is nothing but a sexually transmitted disease with a mortality rate of 100 per cent. In the meantime, overpopulation simply means that the number of people in a given society has already surpassed the economic basis for providing them with adequate food, housing, health and sanitation materials, educational facilities, and indeed, creative or harmless leisure. It is incredible how we all are recklessly blind to notice overpopulation is causing a fantastic rise in malnutrition and illiteracy. It seems even more incredible how millions of Filipinos in this already 21st century are still blessed by God to be frightened to believe and indeed to just wait for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ to remedy the ills of our sick society.

The Holy Baloney Bible

If you have never read the bible, it is surely holy. If, however, you have properly and seriously read bible contents, it is surely full of holy baloney.

Indeed, the bible as written by inspired authors of an All-knowing God, did not even know that the earth is round, not flat; and that it rotates on its own axis daily; and orbits around the sun yearly.

In the bible, Joshua commanded the sun to stop so that he could, under more light, easily kill more of God's enemies. Now isn't that a lot of holy baloney? Poch Suzara

According to www.reasons.org

According to The mission of Reasons: To Believe is to show that science
and faith are, and always will be, allies, not enemies.

The basic trouble with this claim is that before science and
Faith can be allies, and not enemies, is that faith must first be
friendly with other faiths before they can seek the friendship
of science.

Consider the Christian faith, the Muslim faith, and the
faith of the Jews. They are all unfriendly to each other. In fact, they
are ready and willing to cut each other’s throats because, to begin with,
they cannot agree as to what will happen to them after their throats
have been cut.

Faith and science are allies, not enemies? No kidding? How come in any
of the religious books – in the bible, or in the Quran, and in the
Talmud – there is nothing there mentioned about the beauty and the
wonders of science? Poch Suzara

This World, Our World

Albert Einstein wrote: “The most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is comprehensible.”

What, however, is truly comprehensible about our world is that it is pointless, if not meaningless, not to mention utterly directionless.

The most we can do is to make the most, creatively, out of this short and brief life. After all, even the bible admits that “the dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward for the memory of them is forgotten.” Ecc. 9:5

For my personal part, as a man well-established as a loner, I try consistently to make sense of my life by cultivating a rather self-conscious sensitivity to the troubles of others in love with life or devoid of it. Poch Suzara

The Clergy

“The clergy, no less than the capitalist class, lives on the backs
of the people, profits from the degradation, the ignorance and the
oppression of the people. ”
Rosa Luxemburg, "Socialism and the Churches," 1905

And if I may add, most of these poor victims in the Philippines
are products of schools, colleges,and universities mostly owned
and operated by the Catholic Church. Poch Suzara

Only in the Philippines

After years of service, Public Servants in the Philippine government usually end up rich, if not famous. If, however, public servants in the government have only turned out to be good, specially good for nothing - their friends and relatives and admirers will, nevertheless, start a movement to get them canonized to be saints of God.

The God in foreign countries is dead or dying. The God of the Filipinos, however, is still alive and kicking; especially as Filipinos are forever praying for evil against one another.

In the meantime, we Filipinos have yet to learn how raise our children to always stand up for humanity, and no longer kneeling down with silly social and political values to please nothing but a silly divinity. Poch Suzara

Who do we First Obey

Who do we first obey and follow - God, the Father, or, God the Son?
Here are the words from God, the Son: “Thou shalt love thy neighbor
as thyself. Matt 22:39

Now here are the words from God, the Father:
“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 with him” John 2:15

Of course, even if God, the Father contradicts God, the Son,
you can always follow both at the same time and prove that
Christianity is a religion that's purely based upon organized
insanity. Poch Suzara

If Atheism were a Religion

If atheism were a religion, how come we have never heard of atheists hating and killing other atheists for not believing in the existence of God? In the meantime, the theists - the Christians, Jews, and the Muslims have not ceased hating and killing each other for the glory of their respective God in heaven or in paradise! Really, if Atheism were a religion, we might as well also admit that God is an Atheist. Well, considering that God does not believe in the existence of other Gods – that makes God an Atheist. Well, to me, as a die-hard atheist, I do not give two hoots even if God does not believe in the existence of other Gods! We atheists recognize things greater than ourselves – our family, our country, and the whole of humanity. Inside our minds and hearts there is no room for a silly divinity to exist. Poch Suzara

Time and the death of Love

Time is needed to earn money in order to support wife and children. By the time you become rich and famous, however, the question arises: you have become rich for what and famous to whom?

Consider your wife and your children – they hardly know you; neither have a healthy relationship with you as you were daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly too busy in the deadly competition to be a financial success in life., specially to be a successful idiot to get your family derailed.

Indeed, Bertrand Russell wrote it: “In the modern world, however, love has an enemy more dangerous than religion, and that is the gospel of work and economic success.”

Albert Einstein

"Science without Religion is lame and Religion without Science is blind!" Albert Einstein

Obviously, Einstein was just being polite to the millions of religious morons. After all, in the ultimate analysis, science knows a lot about religion while religion knows nothing about science. To begin with, there is not one word, not one sentence, not one verse about the wonders of science written in the bible. Poch Suzara

Western Civilization

It is claimed by Christians that Christianity built Western civilization. If this were true, how come the rich white Americans lived comfortably on black slave labor in America for a great many years? How come the poorest, most backward, nevertheless only Christian country in Asia – the Philippines - never got to be a prominent part of Western civilization? More to the point: if the Christianity built Western civilization, how come the Filipinos in this already 21st century have not learned to grasp the values of forethought and the power of knowledge; still have not learned what it means to love one’s country, what it means to love fellow-citizens, and indeed, how to enjoy a refined heart to love and a developed mind to respect - one another? If we were such as civilized Western nation and, as the only Christian country in Asia – how come the Christian authority got one of the greatest – the most noblest of Filipinos – a thinker and a humanist – Jose Rizal – arrested, incarcerated, and the publicly executed? In fact, thanks to the teachings of Christianity the majority of Filipinos do not know what exactly Jose Rizal stood and died for in his own land under the rule and authority of Christian power and supremacy. In the meantime, Christian terrorism had been behind the Crusades, the Inquisitions, and the mass killings of “witches” and heretics. Many of these heretics were only guilty of expressing ideas then that are now commonly accepted as the science of social reform. With the threat of heresy, Christianity effectively set back humankind's scientific and social advancement by hundreds of years. Christianity is also at the root of most of today's international problems. Just imagine how much more peaceful the world would be without belief in one God or one Son of God causing so much strife, hate and war. In the ultimate analysis, however, if Christianity build Western civilization, how come the teachings of Jesus Christ played an important part in the division between Catholics and Protestants that historically torn apart the Western world, still divides Northern Ireland, and indeed, has kept the Philippines left behind in the race for growth and development as a civilized nation of Asia?

The Failure of Most Marriages

Most marriages fail miserably because to begin with most men only want to fuck and to fuck women. They do not care to raise children which is what marriage is all about. That is why, for the sake of not bringing unhappy children into our already insane world, the prevention of unwanted pregnancy education is a must while men and women enjoy fucking each other. To think that 3 babies are born every minute of the day and night in this poor and backward country. That is about 1.5 million babies each and every year added to the population growth of the Philippines. Most of these babies are the result of an unhappy or failed marriages, if not out of wedlock. Their fathers have been taught to believe and to have faith in God who will provide - if not this world, in the next world to come after death. Poch Suzara

The Tooth Matters

According to the Department of Health, 98 per cent of the Philippine population suffer from tooth decaying, molars rotting, and gums bleeding.

Now what can be expected of Pinay mothers who have been taught to believe not so much in the values of personal health and sanitation but to have faith only in our terrestrial degradation for the sake of gaining eternal salvation? Poch Suzara

Simple Change

I want simple change in the Filipino to begin to enjoy health and wealth as a people. I also want simple change in the Philippines to begin to enjoy prosperity and maturity as a nation. In order to accomplish the change desperately needed for our historical sanity – we must only begin to love our country and love fellow citizens. We can accomplish the task by throwing out the evils making for our sick society under deadly Christianity. Indeed, Christian beliefs and so-called values are still playing destructive parts in keeping the Filipino still poor spiritually as a people and keeping the Philippines still backward morally as a nation. In the ultimate analysis, ours is the failure of education under the success of Christianity in the Philippines.

Let us now begin to seriously look at the wonders of science and the scientific way of thinking . Why other Asian nations are enjoying a much higher standard of living and more creative and productive at working. Thanks to the wonders of science and the scientific way of thinking.

EVOLUTION – fact or fiction

Here’s Bishop John Shelby Spong – a rare Christian leader much too difficult not to love and to respect. Indeed, I have the greatest admiration for this Anglican church Bishop. In his WHY CHRISTIANITY MUST CHANGE OR DIE, he wrote: In 1859 Darwin’s masterpiece, entitled THE ORIGIN OF THE SPECIES, was published. That book caused most of the remaining principles by which human life was understood in religious terms to go up in smoke. Darwin suggested, for example, that the world of God’s creation was not yet finished, directly contradicting the literal biblical text. The world, he said, was still evolving, still being created... In the books of Psalms, it had been suggested that human beings were just a little lower than the angels. But now we began to recognize that we were just a little higher than the animals. . . There was much talk in that era about something called the “missing link,” as if the various species of life were separated by a single link rather than by centuries of tiny adaptations. . .”Dust art thou and to dust thou shalt return” became not just a Lenten note of penitence, but a statement of this newly understood reality of human life. . . That strange thing called “creation science” is nothing more than the ignorant rantings reflecting a frightened and dying religious mentality.” For my part, if Christianity were comprised of men in the likes of Bishop John Shelby Spong – never would I have ever dreamed of excommunicating myself out of the religious mess.
