God is NOT all-knowing

GOD obviously did NOT know the past, the present, or the future. God had to test Adam and Eve because God did not know just exactly how Adam and Eve will pass or fail the silly test; that they may be found guilty or innocent of the Original Sin. As if, Adam or Eve ever originated anything to begin with. Too bad God did not also test the free will of the TALKING SERPENT; and to find out as well what sort of language it spoke. It must have been the sick language of the Sick Serpent of Asia - taglish. Poch Suzara

I don't Blame. but Thank God I am an Atheist

God inspired the Talking Serpent to bring down Adam and eve to be guilty of the Original Sin. The Talking Serpent's mission was a great success. Then God blamed Adam and Eve for being guilty of the Original Sin even if neither Adam nor Eve never originated anything in this world to begin with. For my part, I thank God, I thank the Talking Serpent, and I thank the Holy Bible lessons and messages, and I also thank a lot of you active members of this forum - you all make me proud and happy that I am an ATHEIST - indeed, I have no need for an invisible means of support.

God Will Save me JOKE

There was a small village by a river. One day in monsoon the villagers noticed that the river was swelling and the village was about to be flooded. Everyone left the village for safe ground, except for one man. He said, 'I have faith in God. He will save me.' The water level began to rise. When it rose up to his knees a car passed by and offered to pick him up. The man refused. 'Save me God', he prayed. The car left. When the water level rose up to his waist a boat came by and offered to help him. Again the man refused. The boat left. Again the man prayed to God to save him. When the water level rose up to shoulders a helicopter came to rescue him. Again the man refused, and kept on praying feverishly to God. Finally, he drowned. When he reached his creator he said, 'I had complete faith in you. Why did you ignore my prayers and let me drown?' God replied,' Who do you think sent you the car, the boat and the helicopter?'

"No kidding God," the man should have replied: "Who created the FLOOD to begin with? Poch Suzara

Holy Bibul Divine Family BullShit

"And call no man your father on earth, for you have one father, who is in heaven." – Matthew 23.9 In other words, our fathers did not impregnate our mothers, but God fucked our mothers when our fathers were out of town. I said it before, I say it again: FUCK THIS HEAVENLY HOLY FATHER BULLSHIT AS WRITTEN IN THE HOLY BIBUL SHIT! Poch Suzara

Filipinos Living and Working in foreign countries

Australia was founded 200 years ago by British convicts and heretics. Look at Australia today - one of the most progressive countries in the civilized world today. The Philippines was founded 400 years ago by Spanish friars all of them Catholics. Look at the Philippines today - the poorest spiritually, backward morally, and socially insane - country in all of Asia today. The ticklish part about this historical tidbit is the painful fact that tens of thousands of Filipinos have already migrated to Australia. They are enjoying in Australia a higher standard of living and indeed - thinking. And yet, these Filipinos are still in the habit of praying to God to "give us this day our daily bread, and to "lead us not into temptation." Also praying daily to Mary, Mother of God, to pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death, amen." Thus, millions of Filipinos in the Philippines have absolutely nothing to learn from Filipinos living and working in Australia blessed with the power of human knowledge on how to achieve growth as a people, and maturity as a nation. I said it before, I say it again: if only Filipinos, living and working today in some 198 countries around the world would only learn the ways and means from such countries. Especially in matters of good government, culture, employment, work ethics, discipline, art of learning, system of education, health as a people, and wealth as nation, etc, and pass on such knowledge back home - the Philippines could sooner catch up in the race for human civilization, instead of just being still historically stuck in the rat-race for eternal salvation. In the meantime, for the glory of God up there, we Filipnos are active with FREE WILL than we are creative and productive with GOOD WILL for our country down here. Our productive factories are more into producing not goods, but babies. Indeed, we freely produce three babies every minute or 1.5 million babies yearly for the glory of God in our land. It also explains why poverty, not prosperity, generates the ways and means of our sick society endlessly inspired by both divinity and deviltry otherwise more known as the great success of Christianity in our God-forsaken country.

The Bible written by Inspired Fishermen of God

"The most serious doubt that has been thrown on the authenticity of the biblical miracles is the fact that most of the witnesses in regard to them were fishermen.
- Arthur "Pitcher" Binstead

"In the Philippines, however, biblical miracles are all accepted as historically factual. Especially by college-educated Filipinos as products of Catholic education in La Salle, Ateneo, San Beda, Letran, UST, Assumption college, St. Scholastica, AIM, Miriam college, etc, etc; in fact, more than 1,000 of such schools, colleges, and universities own and operated by the Catholic church in this only Catholic country in Asia.

The Jews are not Christians nor Catholics

He called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out evil spirits and to heal every disease and sickness. - Matthew 10:1

Unfortunately, the apostles of Jesus were NOT given the authority to convert God's own chosen people - the Jews - into becoming Christians or Catholics. Only the Filipinos to be converted in the Philippine to enjoy the drama as the Sick Man of Asia. Poch Suzara

Hey, Poch

Hey, Poch, it doesn't take much to reach someone who is in tune with you. The object of your benevolence can quickly understand the whole music you intend to sing at the very first note you strike, and he finishes the entire song in his head in cadence with your beat. Surprised? Yes, you would be. It was easy for the object to follow you. Why? Because, the song, unknown to your object's consciousness had been with his subconscious, already partially composed at the time you came to him. It most likely came to him like it did to you, because of similar exposure and experience, that is, you were both exposed to a similar environment - subjected to similar conditions in life and profession – culture, religion, schooling, needs, wants and aspirations. By responding in the most admirable responsible manner to my written note of concern, you did a great justice to yourself, and I bet you know it. Your message of understanding made you a lot bigger than I last read you. You quickly redeemed whatever you may have lost which was not much really, not as great as what a closed-minded Christian have already lost in his life. For sure, yes. [Huwag po sana magalit ang mga hindi closed-minded] You are right of course in saying how puny any damage you may have caused the forum compared to the damage wrought by the Catholic Church in its unchecked wayward hundred of years of keeping its flock "innocent" of the true ways of the faith, and making them "ignorant" of their real potentials for greatness as a "believing" and loyal people to their God. I have to agree to a large extend of these damages and very much reminded of it every time I pass the wretched barong barongs of our poor, seeing before me the people - skinny, dirty, ill clothed and poorly sheltered in patched up houses. Their state of health unmistakably tells me how little food they are able to eat. You certainly have an excellent ability to describe in words what evils and horrors you knew the Church had unknowingly or purposely done to its flock and you felt compelled by your kind conscience, learned early from your Christian teachers and parents, to sympathize and it drove you with reckless abandon to expose them in the hope that the rightful changes might be done soon before everything is lost - by primarily attacking the clergy and the unknowing, docile and passive people, urging them to wake up and see the world as you have seen them, and for the love of their Jesus and the strength of their faith make amends and do right! There is absolutely nothing wrong there. You could not stop yourself as courageous Rizal himself could not stop when he made his expose' in two agitating "conscience" stirring books that caused vindictive annoying thoughts and great shame to the Spanish Friars and Authorities who were the evil perpetrators then, and the objects of Rizal's wounded heart and his vicious deadly weapons – his pens. But like the passive Filipinos in Rizal’s time, whose minds were held captive by the powerful Church, the same attitude of passivity met your honorable intentions. This is largely because they are ignorant of your song, don’t know how to read the strange but authentic notes of awakening, of liberty, of the truly free; and if a few do, they robotically continued along the notes of old familiar music that give them much ease, comfort, peace and no sore throat. The new, strange and unknown music scare our people of the faith. It is not a mystery why if we know how they were indoctrinated. The indoctrination helps very well in keeping the flock from wandering into new, strange and unknown territories. This is precisely why you and Rizal had experienced a lot of resistance in your quest to educate and persuade.

In Rizal’s case, he was smart enough to know from experience of the insurmountable quest in the time frame he envisioned a successful revolution. He knew the date of the proposed revolution wasn’t his reckoned time, so he turned down the invitations for him to join the revolution. I, too, could not wholeheartedly join your cause, no matter how much I am convinced that the Church has to change rabbit fast instead of turtle fast that we see it move in what we think is the new and more progressive directions. Slomo itong Church, dahil nga ayaw nila makamalay ang tao na sila ay nagkamali. Hindi maari masabi ng tao, “Aba, kalian lang ginawa, babaguhin kaagad?” Dahan dahan hanggang makalimot sa tagal at hindi na mainit ang ulo ng taong bayan. Alam ko ang malaking pagkukulang ng ating mamayan. Matagal din akong social activist. Even those who pride themselves to be learned, highly “educated” daw sila dahil nga may mga diploma, may masters at PhDs. Pero asaan naman nila naipasok ang mga ito – loyalty, love of country, patriotism, nationalism, subsidiarity, love for neighbors, community involvement, solidarity, etc,, na siyang dapat matutuhan at gawin ng responsibling taong bayan? How were the desire to build a great nation taught and inculcated? Ah, was it ever taught? You, my dear friend, Poch, by your dedication and will to help re-educate our Christian people, is not only in the right frame of mind, in the right track, but most of all, by your act you are showing everyone what a truly educated Filipino is all about. Forget the once in a while silakbo, it’s not an everyday happening. Besides,It is something that sticks for long until old age in many because we were wrongly educated to know, learn and apply it from the INFORMAL education of experience – exposing the young mind to people around them with this highly catching SILAKBO disease/syndrome. What more unwanted traits did we catch that stick like glue until our senior age? You do well my friend, even if you are misunderstood. When I say misunderstood it does not mean referring to you as a failure. It only means you have it in you to succeed once you explore different tact. It does not mean that you will always be a failure. The next time around should be more telling as a success story. It is a different ball game we are in now, at our age. It calls for accepting that the background has radically changed and understanding the need to go with the change. Often we find ourselves irritated when we realize that we need to find new ways to do our usual tasks and unable to find them. Hindi katulad ng dati. We are fortunate that we have freed our minds because we are quick to adapt. Pity those closed minds who have shut them to your fine music because they’ll find it much harder to adapt. They failed to understand that you are only trying your best to make it easy for them to adapt to the ever changing world, they who, at this time, know only to outright reject you. Frankly, I feel this new world of ours awaits another Christ to make a large dent of a change. I don’t mean the Christ who promised to return 2012 years ago. The new Christ must be able to sing a new song, one that no one has heard of yet but one that has been sought and waited for a long time now and have been etched well into our subconscious. When he comes, you and I may find it easy to understand and we will sing his song in chorus. But what of the others? The question speaks clearly of our love for our neighbors, eh, Poch? Take care, pal Ogie

Lies are far more Damaging than Vulgar Language

"If a man would follow, today, the teachings of the Old Testament, would be a criminal. If he would follow strictly the teachings of the New, he would be insane." - Robert Ingersoll Another word for "insane" is to feel blessed by God as we are THE SICK MAN OF ASIA - the frightened men and women - products of schools, colleges, and universities own and operated by the Catholic church in the Philippines. Such frightened men and women are more horrified by harmless "vulgar language" than they should be more terrified by harmful "vulgar beliefs and vulgar values" keeping us Filipinos intellectually poor and spiritually sick as a people and morally sick and economically bankrupt as a nation. Consider in this already 21st century. We Filipinos are still taught to believe that among the countries of Asia, the Philippines has been and still is the one and only country in Asia that's always been BLESSED WITH CHRISTIAN VALUES AND BELIEFS by God and his angels in heaven through the disciples of Christ our Lord down here on earth. Thanks for writing. I much appreciate your thoughts! May I however, say, with all due truthfulness, that the damage I have done in this forum by my foal and vulgar language is so puny, so petty as compared to the historical damage done to Filipino minds and hearts since the 16th century by the wealth, power, and glory of Christianity in the Philippines! Indeed, the truth hurts, but lies are far more damaging and can last for a thousand years. One thing I should get credit for in this forum - I never lied to any of you! Poch Suzara

God and His One and Only Son Jesus Christ

“The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully. ― Richard Dawkins, The God Delusion

If I may add, in our schools, colleges, and universities, we were all educated to believe that such a God had also one begotten Son more known as Jesus Christ - our Savior. The Savior of the world. - Poch Suzara

Lee Kuan Yew - Leader and an Atheist

Lee Kwan Yew - the Prime Minister who changed Singapore from poverty to prosperity. He was not born-raised-educated as a Christian. In fact, he was an atheist and a radical non-believer of the faith. He was never inspired by the Word of God as written in the holy bible. Yet with sheer guts, intelligence, and discipline, he was able to transform Singapore from a hell of a place into an Asian paradise blessed with
higher standard of living and indeed, thinking.

How come our own Philippine government officials, who are all born-raised-educated as Catholics or as Christians, all inspired by God, are all good, unfortunately, only good for nothing? Specially when it comes to growth as a people and maturity as a nation?

In the meantime, the Singaporean youth, in their formative years, are all enjoying the benefits of scientific creativity in their schools, colleges, and universities. Indeed, they are learning to enhance the benefits of science and technology. In order to bring forth more creativity of prosperity into their social and economic reality in Asia.

Could the Philippines ever catch up stuck with its culture of corruption, the culture of praying and believing with Singapore? A city-State way ahead due to its culture of high standard of living as the result of hard learning, hard working, and hard thinking? Poch Suzara

We are all Made of Dust

Nobody is perfect; but however scientifically well-informed many of us have become, the creationists would still insists that we all came from dust and unto dust we shall all return. But really, if the Creator made man in his own image and likeness, it follows that the Creator too is made of dust. Now, isn’t it rather silly to pray to a Creator who is made of dust to save our silly souls that’s made of dust too? Poch Suzara

Aimless as a People and Rudderless as a Nation

There is No Christianity. Only Christianities

Ironically, the truth behind the REVEALED TRUTH has yet to be REVEALED. Otherwise, why are there hundreds of thousand sects of Christianity misunderstanding and fighting and hating each other over what is the true nature of the revealed truth? In the meantime, where is the Universal God who has yet to reveal, for the whole of mankind, one universal religion to hold and embrace and have faith in peacefully and harmoniously? It is glaringly obvious, if not alarmingly translucent that not all of the bible scholars were inspired by the same Holy Spirit; for, if they were, they would all belong as members of the same church today. Throughout the world, there are more than 100,000 different sects of Christianity each hating the other due to, if not because of, the failure to mutually understand bible messages. The great religions of the world, especially Christianity, Judaism, and Islam have enemies. No, not only the animosity of one against the other. The enemy is religion itself. This is due to faith in a local divinity for the sake of spreading religious stupidity globally. To think that after all of these past thousands of years with God here, and God there, and God everywhere - the world today is still in a spiritual mess, still in a moral mess, and still in a religious mess - due to fear here, ignorance there, and the Unrevealed Truth on the march everywhere. Take a good look at Christianity. There is no such religion existing known as Christianity, only CHRISTIANITIES. Indeed, overshadowing the minor protestant religions - Lutheran, Evangelical, Anglican, Methodist, Presbyterian, Baptist, Pentecostal, Mormon, Adventists, Unitarian, Episcopalian, Iglesia Ni Cristo, el Shaddai, Dating Daan, Jesus is Lord Movement, Tamang Daan, Iglesia de Pocholo, Iglesia de Rangus at si Flangus, etc. etc. is the major religion known as the Catholic religion. In Northern Ireland, the Catholics and the Protestants have not ceased hating and fighting each other since the 14th century. And to think that Jesus, the Son of God, the Savior of the world, was to have fixed the troubles of our world during his first coming. Now we are told he will soon return to complete and accomplish the mission with His Second Coming. - Poch Suzara Google# Facebook# Twitter# Atheists#

Jesus last Words on the Cross

"Jesus' last words on the cross, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" hardly seem like the words of a Savior who planned to save the world, specially save Filipinos in the Philippines - the Sick Man of Asia.

It doesn't take a poch Suzara to figure out there is something fishy here. Considering Jesus died in a foreign country 2,000 years ago, and then resurrected from death - proceeded to go to heaven and nobody, but nobody has seen or heard directly from Him even since. Poch Suzara

Lee Kuan Yew - ATHEIST - NON-believer

The man who transformed a hell of a sort into a heaven on earth in a couple of decades celebrated his 87th birthday last week on September 16. In an interview given to a journalist last week, Lee almost ridiculed those who seek strength and solace in religion.

The Prime Minister of Singapore from its founding in 1965 until stepped aside in 1990, Mr. Lee built what he called ‘a first-world oasis in a third-world region'. The world praised him for his incorruptibility and efficiency.

In reply to the interviewer, he said, referring to afterlife, ‘What is next? I do not know. Nobody has ever come back'.

Agnostic and pragmatic at all times, he said, on being asked how he dealt with pains in life, ‘How do I comfort myself? Well. I say life is just like that'. Talking of his sick, bed-ridden wife, Lee said that from time to time, his mind went back to the happy days they were up and about together.

He said he felt a gradual decline in energy and vitality in old age and added generally, every year, he knew he was not on the same level as the previous year. Lee then declared his life philosophy, ‘But that's life'. "Criticize me but I don't believe in miracles, psychics and soothsayers or even afterlife." Poch Suzara

Why we are poor as a people and backward as a Nation

Poverty is the symptom: slavery is the disease. We are not enslaved because we are poor; on the contrary, we are poor because we are enslaved. - Bertrand Russell I said it before, I say it again: via our schools, colleges, and universities - we were educated to have faith not in our country, but to have faith only in Christianity. A people, therefore, who are enslaved to believe that this life in this world is nothing compared to that better world to come with God and Jesus in heaven after death is a people who value not life after birth, but only have faith in life after death. And such traditional religious horror is what keeps us Filipinos poor spiritually, bankrupt morally, stupid politically, impoverished economically, frightened traditionally, and backward historically. In the meantime, it is quite clear that Filipino couples are probably the most PROLIFIC producers of babies not only in Asia, but in the whole world! Poch Suzara

Jesus - the Confused Savior of the World

Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jews. But now my kingdom is from another place." John 18:36 But then, in another verse, Jesus also said: "But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them--bring them here and kill them in front of me." Luke 19:27 Such was the confused Jesus more known as the Savior of the world! In the meantime, during my formative years in La Salle grade school, I was frightened to believe that God made man in his own image and likeness. In high school, however, I asked: Why would God inspire men,who were created in his own image and likeness, get Jesus - His only begotten Son - to be crucified dead on a cross in order for him to be the Savior of men already created in image and likeness of his own Father - God? The answer - I was thrown out. Expelled out of La Salle high school. Amen! Praise the Lord! Poch Suzara
