Senator Ping Lacson

President Aquino appointed Senator Ping Lacson to be the CZAR to fix the heavy damages in Tacloban as caused by typhoon "Yolanda." That was almost a year ago but nothing has yet been fixed in Tacloban; it is still in a mess, except that Senator Ping Lacson has turned out to be more famous not as a CZAR but a SAP in fixing anything anywhere in our country.

Insanity of our Ancestors

"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results". . . Albert Einstein ... Look at the insanity of our parents, grandparents, great grandparents then praying and praying and expecting not only different results; but that we, as their children, grandchildren, great grandchildren should also be praying over and over even if, thus far, there are still no good results in any way whatsoever! Obviously, we are not passing a bright torch to the future generations of Filipinos - we are passing on to them only more of the same old farce, fraud, and ceremony!

Why I love and Respect Atheism

Atheism is wholesome, honest, and trustworthy because it faces the facts of life devoid of fear. As an atheist, I thank God that I am an atheist. After all, God himself was an atheist who created me in His own image and likeness... Please read carefully God's first commandment: THOU SHALT HAVE NO OTHER GODS BEFORE ME.". . . This simply means that God does not believe nor does He tolerate the existence of other Gods - and that makes God a SUPER ATHEIST... So my dear friends, what is the problem? If God, in his own image and likeness, created me to be an atheist - why should that bother any of you religious saps and jerks over why I am a proud and a happy atheist? Cheers!

HAPPY MEMORIAL VETERANS DAY

(CNN) -- U.S. veterans are dying because of delays in diagnosis and treatment at VA hospitals. . . . At least 19 veterans have died because of delays in simple medical screenings like colonoscopies or endoscopies, at various VA hospitals or clinics, CNN has learned. . . That's according to an internal document from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, obtained exclusively by CNN, that deals with patients diagnosed with cancer in 2010 and 2011. . . .Hospital delays are killing war vets. . . The veterans were part of 82 vets who have died or are dying or have suffered serious injuries as a result of delayed diagnosis or treatment for colonoscopies or endoscopies. . . Barry Coates is one of the veterans who has suffered from a delay in care. Coates was having excruciating pain and rectal bleeding in 2011. For a year the Army veteran went to several VA clinics and hospitals in South Carolina, trying to get help. But the VA's diagnosis was hemorrhoids, and aside from simple pain medication he was told he might need a colonoscopy." Indeed, HAPPY VETERANS MEMORIAL DAY. American soldiers come home from war maimed or injured but are unable to find hospital care; many also are unable to find jobs in the Land of the Free and the Home of the brave. After the Second World War, tens of thousands of Filipino soldiers fought on the sides with American soldiers against the Japanese soldiers. After the war, hundreds of thousands of Filipinos had to fall in line to acquire a visa, if at all granted, to go to America. But The Japanese, and indeed the Germans, former enemies of freedom and democracy, could go readily visit the USA without a visa! I said it before, I say it again: war between nations has never been about good versus evil. It has always been about evil versus evil and evil always won. Too bad the soldiers on either side fighting evil have as yet to fully understand that war between nations has never, but never ended the evils of war as an instrument to settle international disputes. What war has only accomplished is the preparation for future wars. In this already 21st century, I'd like to share with all of you the thoughts of Bertrand Russell on the subject of war: "You can, if you think fit, prepare children for a military life by teaching them all to do the same thing at the same moment when they hear the word of command. If you do, they will grow up thwarted and stunted and full of deep-seated anger against the world - no doubt useful emotions if they are to become soldiers employed in killing, but not if they are to be happy citizens of a world at peace."

Malcolm X

"Without education, you are not going anywhere in the world." Malcolm X... Oh, my dear Malcolm X, millions upon millions of us Filipinos are the highly educated products of schools, colleges, and universities own and operated (tax-free) by the Catholic Church in the Philippines? So how come we Filipinos are not going anywhere in the world? We continue to remain thoughtless as a people and rudderless as a nation! Is it because we are all born ignorant, not sick; but we are made sick by a sick system of education? Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Oh God, My Dear God, You are such a Lousy God

"With God behind you and His arms beneath you, you can face whatever lies ahead of you." Philippine Star, May 30, 2014. . .

Oh God, my dear God, you obviously do not exists; and if, however, you do exists, You are such a LOUSY GOD! Oh God, my dear God, I am already 77 years old. My silly doctors tell me that I can go anytime now. Oh well, after I am dead, and when I do meet with you, please rest assured that I will tell it to your face that you have always been a LOUSY God to us Filipinos as a people and to us Filipinos as a nation.

Love, Goodness, and Money in the Philippines

"There is not enough love and goodness in the world to permit giving any of it away to imaginary beings."... Friedrich Nietzsche . . . Oh my dear Friedrich Nietzsche, in the Philippines - the only Catholic country in Asia since the 16th century, thanks to our Catholic system of education, we filipinos always have enough love, enough goodness, indeed, enough time, energy, and money to give away to the imaginary Beings existing in heaven as frightened by more Imaginary Beings existing in Hell.

Respect without Honor is not Respect - it is The Sick Man of Asia

"God desires that we show respect to all people, because everyone bears His image." Philippine Star, May 29, 2014. . . But respect should be shown only if it is earned with honor. Why should we respect our corrupt congressmen or corrupt senators just because they bear the image of the Lord while office; or, because they identify themselves as "maka-Dios" or "Mala-Jesus while they steal billions away from the millions of filthy poor Filipinos getting filthy poorer? ... I said it before, I say it again with all due respect: Pork ina ninyo sa Congresso; baboy tatay ninyo sa senado... Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

There is No Such Thing as Life After Death

"I said it before, I say it again: We must face and appreciate the truth that life has only to do with birth which is the existence of something, and should have nothing to do with death which is the existence of nothing.

That there is a better life to come after death is all but a ecclesiastical hogwash. There is no such thing as life after death. There is only life after birth. Consider for millions of years before birth, we were existing as a nothing. It will be the same merry-go-round after death. We shall again be existing as a nothing.

After death, even if one were still alive in spirit, I ask: with what eyes shall we see; with what ears shall we hear; with what nose shall we smell; with what palate shall we taste; with what skin shall we feel; with what sexual organ shall we have sex; and indeed, with what brain shall we be able to think?... In the final analysis, We do not die partially or temporarily. We die entirely and, indeed, permanently. Nothing is more evident to him who is not delirious. The human body, after death, is but a mass of meat, incapable of producing any movement the union of which constitute life. We no longer see circulation, respiration, digestion, reflection, or the freedom of expression. Nothing is more natural and more simple than to believe that the dead man is no more. There is nothing more absurd than to believe that the dead man is still living.

H. L. Mencken summarized neatly for all of us to clearly see: "Immortality is the condition of a dead man who does not believe that he is already dead."

For my part, as an atheist, I said it before, I say it again: If we must die, let us die sober, and not drunk with lies or delusions... I do not regret nor do I feel sorrow at the death of a love-one, a relative, a friend, or an associate. I am happy with the thought that the dead are already resting in peace forever and can no more be bothered with lies, illusions, confusions, or deceptions! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Veterans Memorial Day

137 years later, Memorial Day remains one of America's most cherished patriotic observances. The spirit of this day has not changed - it remains a day to honor those who died defending our freedom and democracy. . . Doc Hastings. . . I ask: where was the honor of those who died taking land away from the Native Indians - land that eventually got to be known as the United States of America - the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave! By the way, the area of the United States is 3,603,884 square miles... In the meantime, we are told that we Americans did not invent "human rights;" in fact "human rights" invented America. No kidding? What ever happened to the "human rights" of the Native Indians - the original owners of what is known as America - the greatest defender and protector of freedom and democracy around the world today; especially in the poor and backward Philippines - her greatest ally since 1898? . . .

The Wealth of the 10 Most Richest Filipinos

MANILA, Philippines - If the combined wealth of 10 of the richest Filipinos represents the income of more than 20 million wage earners, then what inclusive growth is President Benigno Aquino III talking about? "A workers' group on Friday assailed the chief executive's assertation before the World Economic Forum (WEF) on East Asia that the Philippines, through the Filipino people, had made inclusive and remarkable growth doable. The group said that while there might have been progress, this failed to trickle down to the poor. Partido ng Manggagawa (PM) chairman Renato Magtubo said that based on his group's study, the estimated US$45.3 billion combined wealth of the country's 10 richest people is equal to the annual income of 21 million miniumum wage earners - a proof that economic growth does not translate to substantial poverty reduction as its benefits remain concentrated in the hands of a few. "The Philippines is not a fantastic story of economic miracle but an old testament to this kind of regional growth pattern where a handful of business elites control more than half the economy," said Magtubo. “The Philippine government cannot claim ‘inclusive growth’ until this ratio of inequality is effectively reversed,” he added. Basking in the international acclaim of one of the region’s most astounding “economic miracles,” Aquino on Thursday attributed the country's remarkable growth to the collective effort of the Filipino people. "When many of you have praised the achievements of the Philippines, we always point out that the pursuit of large-scale reforms in every aspect of governance is the achievement of the Filipino people," Aquino said in his speech at the opening of the WEF in Manila. "They made the goal of achieving inclusive growth doable, and it is also they who will make it irreversible," the President added. But Magtubo countered Aquino's statement, saying that any mention of the word "people" at the WEF, "won’t go beyond the context of market – open markets for corporate products and cut-price and flexible labor markets for their efficient operations." “Thus the WEF cannot brag about wonders and miracles when Asia remains the biggest home to the world’s poorest people epitomized by workers in vulnerable employment,” said Magtubo. The Asian region has the highest rate of informalization in the world, according to PM. "As defined, informal workers are the own-account (self-employed) and unpaid family workers combined. They also include workers in irregular (contractuals) or seasonal employment," Magtubo explained. He said that recently, informal workers had been labelled as precariats or workers living in precarious working conditions. The group said the International Labor Organization (ILO) had estimated the Asia-wide “vulnerable employment” in 2007 at 1.1 billion people or 62.2 percent of all workers in the region, while informalization in the Philippines is estimated to be between 41 and 77 percent." In the meantime, I asked it before, I ask it again: Have any of you ever met a Filipino who got to be FILTHY RICH for believing that God is BAD? So how come millions of Filipinos are FILTHY POOR and yet they all believe that God is GOOD! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Maka-Dios and Maka-Jesus Corrupt Politicians in our Government

Philippine Star, May 27, 2014, Letter to the Editors: Dear Sirs: In your front page today, it says: "Final "Napolist" out today."... I ask: don't you people ever think that those 18 senators involved in the billions of pesos SCAM - not one of them has ever been known to be an "atheist?"... As a matter of fact, all have been and still are openly-declared "maka-Dios" and "maka-Jesus."...

Christianity as a Filthy Rich Organized Religion

Christianity did not become a major religion by the quality of its providence, benevolence, competence, or eloquence; but by the quantity of its violence in acquiring nothing in this world except the power of opulence... In the Philippines, the Catholic church has successfully achieved such opulence via the violence against the malleable minds and hearts of the millions of innocent children at home and in schools, colleges, and universities mostly own and operated (tax-free) by the Catholic church since the 16h century... Indeed, we are all, each and every one of us - the stupid victim, and not the intelligent master of religion! . . . Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

No, It's not only Aquino Who's Useless

Philippine Daily Inquirer Letter to the Editors Monday, May 26th, 2014 Dear Sirs: It's Aquino Who's Useless Super Typhoon “Yolanda” survivors are calling Ping Lacson useless as rehabilitation czar (“Ping useless, say ‘Yolanda’ victims,” News, 5/17/14). That actually wasn’t quite as surprising as when President Aquino appointed him to that position a few months ago... Indeed, rather than work to help the survivors, Lacson has chosen to spend most of his time blabbing about the pork barrel scam and the infamous list of those allegedly involved in it... But the Yolanda survivors can’t blame Lacson more than they should blame President Aquino. Lacson’s appointment didn’t make sense from the very beginning but, true to the opportunist that he seemingly is, he didn’t turn down the position. So the bigger issue is President Aquino’s decision to appoint Lacson. Nothing much has been “delivered” by Malacañang since Yolanda. Yes, there was the news about “finished” bunkhouses for survivor-families, which were “inspected” and approved by President Aquino, but which turned out to have been substandard. So in a sense, the one who is useless is not Lacson but President Aquino himself, who can’t do anything significant for the Yolanda survivors except to appoint a useless bureaucrat to attend to them. —MELLIE SANCHEZ, melanie_sanchez1992@yahoo.com... My Dear Mellie Sanchez, I read with great interest your letter published in the Philippine Daily Inquirer today... May I, however, point out to you what's historically useless in our country... All of those as employees (some 17 million of them) and as high officials in the government are products of schools, colleges, and universities own and operated (tax free) by the Catholic church in the Philippines... Just like the rest of us, they too have been educated from grade school to high school and up to college to believe that as individuals, or as a family, or as a people, or even as a nation - whatever our problems and troubles we need not worry nor should we be bothered because there is always God who will provide for us in the end. If not in this world, in the next. Do you see now why we Filipinos are still spiritually useless as a people, and still morally useless as a nation? Cheers! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Truthfulness

It is not in spite of, but precisely due to, - the schools, colleges, and universities... Mostly own and operated by the Catholic church in the Philippines... We Filipinos have never been taught how to be spiritually free as a people; nor, have we ever been taught how to morally develop independently as a nation... To begin with, there is no such beauty as love of our country... There is only love of mendacity; especially for the sake of a silly divinity in need of more money otherwise more referred to as the Word of God under Christianity... I said it before, I say it again: If truthfulness were suddenly a serious way of life with us Filipinos in the Philippines, the government, the churches, schools, colleges, universities, and, indeed the media - radio, television, newspapers, and magazine business would suddenly go bankrupt, dead, and buried!

Golf Courses in America and in the Philippines

There are over seventeen thousand golf courses in America, they average over one hundred and fifty acres a piece. That’s three million plus acres, four thousand, eight hundred and twenty square miles. You could build two Rhode Islands and a Delaware for the homeless on the land currently being wasted on this meaningless, mindless, arrogant, elitist, racist, there’s another thing; the only blacks you’ll find at country clubs are carrying trays. And a boring game. A boring game for boring people. You ever watch golf on television? It’s like watching flies fuck! George Carlin Golf courses for the few filthy rich are proliferating throughout the Philippines. Instead of planting fruit trees, rice, corn, flower plants, etc. the filthy rich, who have nothing else better to do, are plating golf balls for the pleasure of driving such balls to only God knows where. And so, for the many filthy poor struggling to survive in this only Christian country in Asia, it means land deformed instead of land reform... Poch Suzara

What is Worth Thinking

"Our main business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand." Thomas Carlyle...

Woman's Vagina and Man's Penis and Life on this Earth

The ugliest part of a woman's body is her ugly looking vagina. The ugliest part of a man's body is his ugly looking penis. To think that the vagina and the penis are both needed to make babies as we are commanded to multiply and to replenish the earth. In order, however, to deodorize the ugly reality, or to sanitize the ugly activity, we tell each other religious lies like: God created man in His own image and likeness!. . . Indeed, instead of understanding the beauty of the human medulla oblongata, we only need to believe and to have more faith in a lot of ugly dogma, ugly pigma, and ugly hogma. In the meantime, in the ultimate reality - human life on this earth is nothing but a sexually-transmitted disease with a mortality rate of 100 per cent. Or, to put it more bluntly, life is a disease for which there is no cure. None whatsoever. Like damned fools in a ship of fools we are all sharing, whether we like it or not, - a common doom together. . . Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Religiosity that Promotes Insanity

I THANK THE GOD OF THE CHRISTIANS, THE ALLAH OF THE MUSLIMS, AND THE YAHWEH OF THE JEWS - THEY HAVE NO MORE INFLUENCE OVER MY LIFE, NO MORE POWER OVER MY SENSE OF MORALITY.

LOOK AT HOW THE CHRISTIAN THEOLOGY ALWAYS IN CONFLICT WITH ISLAM THEOLOGY ALWAYS IN CONFLICT WITH JEWISH THEOLOGY!
