Bertrand Russell Introductory Remarks of his Autobiography

Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair. I have sought love, first, because it brings ecstasy – ecstasy so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of life for a few hours of this joy. I have sought it, next, because it relieves loneliness – that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold unfathomable lifeless abyss. I have sought it, finally, because in the union of love I have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints and poets have imagined. This is what I sought, and though it might seem too good for human life, this is what – at last – I have found. With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of men. I have wished to know why the stars shine. And I have tried to apprehend the Pythagorean power by which number holds sway above the flux. A little of this, but not much, I have achieved. Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always pity brought me back to earth. Echoes of cries of pain reverberate in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer. This has been my life. I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.

LET'S GIVE AMERICA BACK TO ITS RIGHTFUL OWNERS -THE NATIVE INDIANS

He assured the crowd, “Don’t worry, we’ll take our country back.” - Donald Trump. . .As an American citizen, I sure hope that you can take back AMERICA and give it back to the native American Indians - the original owners - the people we stole AMERICA from and justified our crime against humanity by singing out loud: GOD BLESS AMERICA. THE LAND OF THE FREE. THE HOME OF THE BRAVE. In the meantime, during these past three centuries, to be a Negro in this country and to be relatively conscious is to be in a rage almost all the time... James A.Baldwin . . . One can imagine how the Native Indians feel as the original owners of a continent now called - the United States of America... They are even more in a rage all the time... Indeed, what the White Christians did to the native Indians and then bring in tens of thousands of Black African slaves yearly to the USA is the greatest crime against humanity... No other country has been guilty of such barbarism. Such savagery! It is today asked: how does one begin to repair the emotional, psychological, and physical damage inflicted by kidnapping millions of members of Africa families, transporting them in chains across the Atlantic as they lay in their excrement, and for those who survived the trip to the New World, subjecting them to unimaginable horrors: scattering their family members, never to be rejoined again; persistently raping their women, such that almost all of their descendants are tainted with the blood of their captors and then lynching, torturing, and castrating their men, who dared to defy their brutal treatment... Legalized slavery occurred in the United States 1619 to 1865 or some (250) years and was followed by another century of legalized racial discrimination... In the meantime, slavery was not romantic; it was cruel,ferocious, brutal, and corrupting in all of its aspects. It was developed in its greatest degree of degradation in GOD BLESS AMERICA - land of the free and the home of the brave. . Raymond A, Winbush, Ph.D in his great book "SHOULD AMERICA PAY"(slavery and the raging debate on REPARATIONS) summarized the American horror: "Until America's white ruling class accepts the fact that the book never closes on massive unredressed social wrongs, America can have no future as one people."...

Our Sick Prayers As Inspired by our Sick Theology

"In the Middle Ages, when pestilence appeared in a country, holy men advised the population to assemble in churches and pray for deliverance; the result was that the infection spread with extraordinary rapidity among the crowded masses of supplicants. This was an example of love without knowledge. The late war afforded an example of knowledge without love. In each case, the result was death on a large scale." - - - Bertrand Russell 

In the Philippines, in this already 21st century, instead of taking advantage of the beauty behind science, and the power behind technology that's been elevating other Asian nations into higher growth, better development, and general prosperity, - we Filipinos are still with our sick prayer under a sick theology inside churches and cathedrals. The result thus far is that we Filipinos are only enjoying the greatest of miracles: we Filipinos are getting more and more famous throughout the world as the SICK MAN OF ASIA down here for the greater glory of Jesus up there! - Poch Suzara twitter# Facebook# Google#

The Difference Between Knowledge and Wisdom

Difference Between Wisdom and Knowledge . . . Wisdom vs Knowledge . . . research by: Poch Suzara Wisdom and knowledge are common words in English language. We equate knowledge with books and teachings, and at classrooms, teachers tell us a lot about knowledge. But wisdom is much more than knowledge as it is an abstract attribute that is not found in every man who is knowledgeable. Are you not convinced still? Continue reading, as this article attempts to highlight the differences between knowledge and wisdom. We are not born with all the facts and information that we assimilate into our brain as we grow up. We are taught many concepts at school, and our teachers make us understand things that expand our knowledge base. The knowledge that hydrogen and oxygen molecules add up to make water is knowledge. The fact that the water in our oceans and rivers is the same that comes back in the form of rainfall is again knowledge. We can be made to know everything about water, including its properties and features, but we never know it in its entirety unless we drink and know its taste. Knowledge All the facts and information about things, people, places and cultures of the world constitute a knowledge base that we build up as we learn a lot first from our parents and later at school from our teachers. We learn how to behave without elders and react in different situations as per societal norms. All this is referred to as the knowledge that we gain in our life. Wisdom Wisdom is the application of knowledge in real life situations to obtain desired results. Thus, the ability to apply knowledge in easy to tough situations refers to knowledge. Wisdom comes from experience. You may know how to open the lock of a car. This is certainly knowledge though one that is not desirable. However, wisdom says never to apply this knowledge or else you may have to serve in prison. Wisdom comes from wise, and so wise men have wisdom. But wisdom is a trait that does not come with knowledge alone. It comes with a mixture of knowledge and experience. What is the difference between Wisdom and Knowledge? • Wisdom is a quality or an attribute while knowledge is the state of knowing. • One gains knowledge by knowing facts and information while the ability to apply such knowledge for the benefit of all is wisdom. • Wisdom comes with age and experience it is said; this is the reason upper chamber of legislature consists of older men. • Knowing how to steal a car is knowledge but not applying this knowledge is wisdom. In the meantime, we atheists have no knowledge of God. We only have wisdom when it comes to God. We do not, we will not, and we will never believe in the existence of a God or Gods because we have the knowledge of nothing about God. We do not even know whether God is a HE, a SHE, or an IT! Or, if God created the universe some 14 Billion years ago, is such a God still alive today already 14 Billion years old?. . . Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

"At this present day, religion, as embodied in the Churches, discourages honest thinking, in the main, and gives importance to things that are not important." --- Bertrand Russell - - - For my part, as an atheist, I love thinking.

FREE WILL versus FREE MIND

“It has always seemed absurd to suppose that a god would choose for his companions, during all eternity, the dear souls whose highest and only ambition is to obey.” - - - Robert G.

For my part, I treasure more my free mind than I do my free will. . . a Free mind has more to do with the growth and development of one's sanity.

WHY AM I HAPPY

"Few people can be happy unless they hate some other person, nation, or creed." . . . Bertrand Russell . . . With me, I am happy because I hate with a passion the sick system of education in the Philippines. The evil, historically, keeps us spiritually frightened as a people, and culturally unenlightened as a nation. Indeed, we are all born ignorant, not stupid.

The Evil More Known as the Sick System of Education in the Philippines

One man believes in Christianity... Another believes in Islam... The horror distinguishing them. When, however, both believe the Multiplication Table, provided they believe correctly, there is no difference between them...Thus, the sick and the irrational separate us. The sane and the rational unite us... Now take a good look at schools, colleges, and universities in the Philippines as own and operated by the Catholic church. They teach not what should unite us as a people; but teach only what keeps us divided as a nation... In this way, we Filipinos continue to be not the well-informed as educated citizens of our country; but only to be the servants, employees, and the victims of the powers-that-be - the corrupt and the few filthy rich - the real owners of the Philippines! Millions upon millions Filipinos as products as schools, colleges, and universities have their souls saved; but at the expense of something far more precious - their minds twisted and their hearts distorted with sick religious values and beliefs. In the meantime, in this already 21st century, we Filipinos are only getting more famous throughout the world as the SICK MAN OF ASIA.

The Existence of God - PROVE IT

If God, in order to exist, has no need of a creator, why should the universe need to be created by a creator? - We atheists simply reject YOUR claims (okay, having a good laugh at them too), which shouldn't be inconceivable considering the lack of evidence you have to support said claims. But, you can squash this; all you have to do is PROVE IT. Meanwhile, why bother praying to: OUR FATHER, WHO ART IN HEAVEN? As if you seriously know where heaven is located? Well, why not pray to: OUR GOD WHO ART ON EARTH? We all know where earth is located, but where is God on earth? Where is God in the Philippines - the only Catholic country in Asia since the 16th century! As usual God is only always OMNI-ABSENT, NEVER OMNI-PRESENT! Or, even more ticklish - God only loves to play HIDE AND SEEK GAME like children do love to play said game at any time. For my part, I do not believe in the existence of God because, to begin with, God is unbelievable! I do not see why there is the need first to mutilate my mind and heart in order to prove the existence of God. I never experienced such horrors in believing in the existence of the sun! The sun never threatened to burn me forever inside the sun if I doubted its existence! I love the sun; more important, I respect the sun.

Thought to Provoke Your Thought on my Coming Death

“I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it.” --- Mark Twain... Me too, I do not fear death. Billions of years before I was born, I was happy and peaceful existing as a nothing. I did not then have anything to do with a sick God in hell or in heaven who promised me that If I obeyed his commandments I will be saved to enjoy eternal salvation later after death in his kingdom!. . . In the meantime, there is no such thing as life after death. Even the bible says so. Please read:"The dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward for the memory of them is forgotten." Eccl. 9:5... In the meantime, the whole root of our troubles in life is that we have needlessly sacrificed all the beauty of our lives by incarcerating ourselves with totems, taboos, crosses, blood sacrifices, beliefs, values, steeples, mosques, races, armies, flags, nations, in order to deny the fact of death, which is the only fact we have... For my part, both as a Filipino and an American citizen, I have settled the sick issue with one simple blow - I have learned to live not by kneeling down, but by standing up... That there is more to life than just stupid believing... There is something more precious - intelligent thinking. Especially to put more beauty into this world where nature has put only horrors... To leave this world a better place that how we found it; not necessarily in the material, but in the humanitarian - sense!. . . And in the degree where we can all be great that is the business of each and everyone of us!...

The Power of Prayer Not to Heal but to Kill

"In the Middle Ages, when there was an epidemic, people crowded into churches to pray, thinking that their piety would move God to take pity on them; in fact the crowd in ill-ventilated building provided ideal conditions for the spread of the infection...

They mutually keep their followers under them ignorant at best; frightened at worst. It is only in this way that these criminals, as they are the criminals behind the church; and the criminals behind the government enjoy their power, glory, and authority down here; especially as perpetually blessed by God up there.

THE NEED FOR GOD TO PLAY GOD OVER PAIN AND SUFFERING

For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me. - Matthew 25:35-36. . .

Living the fear of Life is Man's greatest of tragedies

Watch your thoughts, for they become words. Watch your words, for they become actions. Watch your actions, for they become habits. Watch your habits, for they become character. Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny. . . Nick Fatool Oh my dear Nick Fatool, I have no fear of either life or death. I am an atheist and therefore, rightly or wrongly, I am in control of my own destiny... It has more to do with my hopes of leaving this world one day as a better place than I found it; not necessarily in the material, but in the humanitarian, - sense. In other words, after death, I do not care to meet with God in HELL... I do not care to meet the devil in HEAVEN... I also do not care to meet Jesus together with his disciples, apostles, followers, and believers in PURGATORY... After my death, I look forward to existing peacefully again as a NOTHING. Just exactly like the way I existed peacefully for millions of years as a nothing before birth... In the meantime, it is truly sad and pathetic... A lot of my friends, relatives, associates, classmates, and schoolmates have already died on this earth... The problem is that they have NOT yet been buried. They still pretend to be alive; specially by praying daily to Jesus to forgive them of their sins and crimes while we, as Filipinos, are only getting more sick aimless as a people, and the Philippines is only getting rudderles going no where as a nation!

H. L. Mencken on Religious Beliefs

H. L. Mencken’s Religious Beliefs As for religion, I am quite devoid of it. Never, in my adult life, have I experienced anything that could be plausibly called a religious impulse. My father and grandfather were agnostics before me and, although I was sent to Sunday School as a boy and exposed to the Christian theology, I was never taught to believe it. My father thought that I should learn what it was, but it apparently never occurred to him that I would accept it. He was a good psychologist. What I got in Sunday School – beside a wide acquaintance with Christian hymnology – was, simply, a firm conviction that the Christian faith was full of palpable absurdities, and the Christian god preposterous. Since that time, I have read a great deal in theology – perhaps much more than the average clergyman – but I have never discovered any reason to change my mind. The act of worship, as carried on by Christians, seems, to me, to be debasing rather than ennobling. It involves grovelling before a Deity who, if He really exists, deserves to be denounced instead of respected. I see little evidence, in this world, of the so-called goodness of God. On the contrary, it seems to me that, on the strength of His daily acts, He must be set down a most cruel, stupid, and villainous fellow. I can say this with a clear conscience, for He has treated me very well – in fact, with vast politeness. But, I can’t help thinking of His barbaric torture of most of the rest of humanity. I simply can’t imagine revering the God of war and politics, theology and cancer. I do not believe in immortality and have no desire for it. The belief in it issues from the puerile egos of inferior men. In its Christian form, it is little more than a device for getting revenge upon those who are having a better time on this earth. What the meaning of human life may be, I don’t know: I incline to suspect that it has none. All I know about it is that, to me at least, it is very amusing, while it lasts. Even its troubles, indeed, can be amusing. Moreover, they tend to foster the human qualities that I admire most – courage, and its analogues. The noblest man, I think, is that one who fights God and triumphs over Him. I have had little of this to do. When I die, I shall be content to vanish into nothingness. No show, however good, could conceivably be good forever. – an extract from a letter H. L. Mencken wrote to Will Durant in 1931. The letter was published in On the Meaning of Life, edited by Will Durant (New York: Ray Long and Richard R. Smith, 1932). In 1931, Will Durant asked various public figures to contribute their opinions on the meaning of life, as they understood it. Their responses were published in the volume documented above. H. L. Mencken (1880-1956) was a journalist, literary and social critic, and author. Will Durant (1885-1981) was a historian of Western Civilization and author... Poch Suzara

The Merger of the Evils of Communism and the Evil of Capitalism in China

The way to combat Communism is not war. What is needed in addition to such armaments as will deter Communists from attacking the West, is a diminution of the grounds for discontent in the less prosperous parts of the non-communist world. Communism is a doctrine bred of poverty, hatred and strife. Its spread can only be arrested by diminishing the area of poverty and hatred. . . . Bertrand Russell, Portraits From Memory And Other Essays, 1952. . . Oh my dear Bertrand Russell, surprisingly, Communism has been arrested due to, if not because of the guts and gumption, indeed, the rarity of human intelligence shown by the Chinese thinking government leadership: they managed to perform the greatest miracle in the world ever: they merged the evils of communism and the evils of capitalism together. China is the richest and most powerful economy in the world today. Almost 90 per cent of products consume by the whole wide world today is made in China!

Jesus was Not a catholic nor His Apostles were Christians

Without God Life Has No Meaning - NO KIDDING

I am often told that Without God, life has no meaning. Of course, without God, life has no meaning. After all, who is going to forgive our meaningful sins and forgive our meaningful crimes if not God or His Son Jesus? Look at the sinners and criminals as the sick and corrupt officials in our sick and corrupt government. They are always bragging that they are "MAKA-dios, and that they are also all MAKA-Jesus in this only Catholic country in Asia. I say, there is no reason to believe that life needs to be eternal in order to be meaningful. Indeed, there is evidence that quite the opposite in the case: for example, a film, a performance, a novel or a sporting event without end would completely lose any meaning. In the same way, we can question what would be the point of doing anything at all if we had an eternity to live, with nothing to bring it into focus and give it some urgency and poignancy. My mentor Bertrand Russell summarized it more meaningfully: “I believe that when I die I shall rot, and nothing of my ego will survive. I am not young and I love life. But I should scorn to shiver with terror at the thought of annihilation. Happiness is nonetheless true happiness because it must come to an end, nor do thought and love lose their value because they are not everlasting." . . . Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

True Ignorance

"True ignorance is not the absence of knowledge, but the refusal to acquire it. Carl Popper . . . Indeed, we are all born ignorant, not stupid. We are made stupid by a stupid system of education via schools, colleges, and universities. They are places where we are taught to believe that after we acquire a "college diploma" there will be no more need to learn any more! - Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

WOW GOD, WHAT ELSE ARE YOU A GOOD GOD FOR

GOD'S WORD or GOD'S ACTION

"God's Word needs no additions or subtractions." --- Philippine Star, June 18, 2015. . . Wow God, as you are already a God, are you still stuck with your faith in blind faith unable to see that ACTIONS are more precious, more creative, and more efficient than WORDS in remaking this world, our world, to be a better place for all of mankind? --- Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

So There Is A God, So What?

So there is a God! So what? Why is such a God only always OMNI-ABSENT, never OMNI-PRESENT? I'd like to meet God face to face in the here and now. I'd like to tell God to his face that he has been a LOUSY God; specially to us millions of filthy poor and sick Filipinos and the few filthy-rich Filipinos who are among the biggest saps and jerks in the Philippines - the only Catholic country in Asia since the 16th century!

Success in Life

We are all born ignorant, not sick or corrupt. We are made sick and corrupt via a sick and corrupt system of education in the Philippines. If we wish to know why we, as a people, are filthy, messy, and sick even as a nation - take a closer look at our sick and corrupt system of education; especially as operated by the power of authority of Catholicism in the Philippines - the only Catholic country in Asia since the 16th century.

 In the meantime, millions of college educated Filipinos believe they are poor because they have no money. On the contrary, the worse kind of poverty is the poverty of the mind. Among those who are truly rich are those who are rich in spirit as they only wish via to learn more as learning via the search of the truth is a lifetime adventure.

Here, however, is what Bertrand Russell wrote on the pursuit of more money: “Love of money
has been denounced by moralists since the world began. I do not wish to add another to the moral denunciations, of which the efficacy in the past has not been encouraging. I wish show how the worship of money is both an effect and a cause of diminishing vitality, and how our institutions might be changed so as to make the worship of money grow less and general vitality grow more. It is not the desire for money as a means to definite ends that is in question. A struggling artist may desire money in order to have leisure for his art, but this desire is finite, and can be satisfied by a very modest sum. It is the worship of money that I wish to consider: the belief that values may be measured in terms of money, and that money is the ultimate test of success in life. This belief is held in fact, if not in words, by multitudes of men and women, and yet it is not in harmony with human nature, since it ignores vital needs and the instinctive tendency towards some specific kind of growth. It makes men treat as unimportant those of their desires which run counter to the acquisition of money, and yet such desires are, as a rule, more important to well-being than any increase of income. It leads men to mutilate their own natures from a mistaken theory of what constitutes success, and to give admiration to enterprise which add nothing to human welfare. It promotes a dead uniformity of character and purpose, a diminution in the joy of life, and a stress and strain which leaves whole communities weary, discouraged, and disillusioned.” --- Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Separation of Church and State in the Philippines

For as long as you have government officials who are the products of education in Catholic grade school, Catholic high school, and in Catholic universities, the Separation of State and Church in the Republic of the Philippines can only be a farce, a fraud, and a ceremony! Well, as the only Catholic country in Asia, since our government officials are devout and faithful Catholics it will be a sin for them not to loyal first to God, and then, if at all, as a miracle, to love our country. In the meantime, even our sick and insane officials in our government believe there is a better world to come but only we are all dead! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Morality versus Human Intelligence

Morality is the product of the evolutionary development of man and society. Morality is always relative and never absolute. Within the framework of our society, we chose our own, personal code of moral conduct. In the meantime, morality is for mentally retarded children who have been educated to fear intellectual growth. Human intelligence, however, is for men and women educated enough to acquire more knowledge and wisdom in order to put more beauty into this world where the sick sense of religious morality have put only horrors.

If you steal from 1 author, you are a PLAGIARIST. If you steal from 2 authors, you are a SCHOLAR. If you steal from 3 authors, you are a RESEARCHER. But if you steal from 100 authors - who or what are you?? You are a POCH SUZARA - a high school expelled student; an unbeliever of the faith all night; a believer of the power of reason all day; but more so, a brave writer and a courageous reader of banned books worth reading. What about you college-educated men and women? What have you got to say for yourselves? Aside from copying the sins of the theologians known as the sin of insanity; or, copying the crimes of the politicians known as the crime of stupidity - who else do you people copy from in order to prove that you are in full possession of the most priceless treasure on this earth - your own precious mind and heart!

The Sick Religion that Frightens Instead of Brightens the Innocent Mind of a Child

Religion frightens you to ignore the plain truth that when you came out of your mama's womb, you were born an atheist. Indeed, no child is born with a religion. All children are atheists. No child is born a Catholic or born a Muslim or born as a faithful believer in a lot of ecclesiastical crap. Indeed, as the song in South Pacific play goes: You've got to be taught To hate and fear, You've got to be taught From year to year, It's got to be drummed In your dear little ear You've got to be carefully taught. You've got to be taught to be afraid Of people whose eyes are oddly made, And people whose skin is a diff'rent shade, You've got to be carefully taught. You've got to be taught before it's too late, Before you are six or seven or eight, To hate all the people your relatives hate, You've got to be carefully taught! For my part, getting myself kicked out of La Salle high school was a great achievement in life. In fact, greater than getting myself excommunicated out of the catholic church. - Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

THEOLOGY, A STUDY FOR THE SICK AND THE INSANE

Theology is the effort to explain the unknowable in terms of the not worth knowing... H. L. Mencken And to think that years in grade school, high school, and in college THEOLOGY was the only subject we learned to believe and to have faith in for the rest of our sick and temporary existence. And to think further, the religious morons comprising our sick society are still trying so very hard to explain the existence of the unknowable in terms of the not worth knowing! So there is God, the Father; so there is Jesus, the Son of God; so there is the holy spirit, the ghost of God; so there is Mary, the Mother of God; so there is Satan, the devil of God! SO, SO WHAT? How will such knowledge help us grow up sane and healthy as a people, and will help us develop sane and wealthy as a nation?. . . Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

We Filipinos Continue to Sick as a People and Sick as a Nation

In this already 21st century, we Filipinos continue to be sick as a people and continue to be sick as a nation. It is due to, if not because of, our faith in a sick religion behind a sick system of education. Indeed, for the most part, schools, colleges, and universities are own and operated by the Catholic church since Christianity conquered the Philippines in the 16th century. All of the rotten and corrupt officials in our rotten and corrupt government have acquired college education in catholic universities in the Philippines. They all do share a great joy together - all of their sins and crimes down here are forgiven by a sick God up there! Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

There is Nothing Existing Outside the Universe

"There Is Nothing Outside The Universe." And the question of what went before It began, or who created it, no longer, it turns out, make any sense. . . Lee Smolin. . . If there is no God, where did everything come from?... “If we can accept that God could exist without being created why could this same logic not apply to the universe itself?” The problem with the First Cause Argument lies in its assumption that an almighty creator exists, something that it is trying to prove. This is known as begging the question. Even a child can ask, “If God created the universe, then who created God?” If the answer is that God is uncaused, then the same answer could certainly be applied to the existence of the universe — that it is uncaused. Besides, which almighty creative god are we talking about? People using the First Cause Argument always make the assumption that their god did the creating. Catholics think God created the universe. Muslims think that Allah created the universe. Hindus think that Brahma did it. The Jews think that Yahweh did it. Most religions have a story of how their god created the universe. The idea of a god as creator of the universe makes for a fantastic tale, but it obviously tells us little about the characteristics of that god. What they are doing is explaining one mystery with a bigger mystery, and that is fallacious logic. Or, explaining the unknown by means of the unknowable. Thus, religion encourages stupidity, belittles one's sense for humanity, and inspires one to have faith in holy absurdity, in order to promote human insanity globally! ...

WOW ARCHBISHOP SOCRATES VILLEGAS - IT IS TIME TO WAKE UP!

MANILA - The Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines is urging voters not to vote for candidates who are "notoriously corrupt" while also warning against the work of spin doctors who malign deserving candidates. In a pastoral letter, CBCP president and Archbishop Socrates Villegas reminded Filipinos to vote "for the right reasons" and not allow “demolition jobs” to influence their decisions to choose the deserving candidate. “Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over by all the flattery in favor of one candidate, neither should a voter allow demolition jobs to dissuade him from choosing a person who is truly fit for office,” Villegas said. “Reject the notoriously corrupt, but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation in the absence of incontrovertible evidence, for, these days, one’s reputation, so painstakingly built by sincerity and honesty over the years, can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ‘spin-doctors’ in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant,” he added. Villegas' pastoral letter was read in different parishes all over the country on Sunday. Fr. Erik Adoviso, parish priest of Most Holy Trinity Church, said the CBCP president also warned the public against voting candidates who are part of political dynasties who just run for different electoral positions. "Ang pulitika ay hindi monopolya ng isang pamilya o isang clan. Ito ay para sa lahat," he told ABS-CBN News. The CBCP president also reminded voters that lawmakers are support to make laws and not have their own projects. "Do not demand to know a congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been. Legislators are not supposed to have local projects. They are supposed to legislate, to attend congressional sessions, rise to debate and actively take part in committee hearings," he said. WOW, MY DEAR ARCHBISHOP SOCRATES VILLEGAS, IT IS TIME TO WAKE UP. THERE IS NOT ONE CORRUPT AND ROTTEN POLITICIAN IN OUR SICK AND CORRUPT GOVERNMENT WHO IS AN ATHEIST. THEY ALL BELIEVE IN GOD. THEY ALL LOVE AND WORSHIP JESUS! INDEED, THEY ARE ALL COLLEGE EDUCATED IN CATHOLIC COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES OWN AND OPERATED ( tax-free ) in the Philippines. ARCHBISHOP VILLEGAS, IS IT REALLY THAT COMPLICATED FOR YOU TO COMPREHEND THAT WE FILIPINOS ARE ALL BORN IGNORANT, NOT SICK AND CORRUPT. WE ARE MADE SICK AND CORRUPT BY A CATHOLIC SYSTEM OF EDUCATION IN THE PHILIPPINES. WHEN WILL THESE HISTORICAL HORRORS END? IN THE MEANTIME, HOW ABOUT CHECKING ALSO ON YOUR ROTEN AND CORRUPT BISHOPS?

What Achievements Have We Through the Power of Prayer

"Whatever has been achieved through pressure and violence is unstable, unreliable and incorrect." - - - Janusz Korczak ... In the Philippines, whatever has been achieved through the power of prayer is sick and insane. To begin with, nothing has ever been achieved through the power of prayer! This is so shamelessly obvious since millions upon millions of Filipinos are still busy praying daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly? The power of prayer in the Philippines has been going on since the 16th century. Today, in this already 21st century, millions of us Filipinos are still stuck with our sick and insane prayers!

God as a Supernatural Jerk

My interest in the existence of God began when I reached the age of reason some 70 years ago. Oh yes, my search for the existence of God began during my youthful years. Today at 78 years of age, as a senior citizen, I am quite sure there is no God; and if there were a God, such a God has got to be a supernatural Jerk... Soon I will be dead. After death, and there is life after death, I really do not give 2 hoots about meeting such a God in the hereafter! . . . Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

You may have valid evidences to prove the existence of God, but there is yet a greater problem; how do you explain God's endless ways and means of always being never omni-present, as god is only always omni-absent?

Was Jesus really that Sick or that Insane

Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day. For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them. Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me. This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your ancestors ate manna and died, but whoever feeds on this bread will live forever.” He said this while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum... John 6:53-59... I ask: Was Jesus really that sick as the Son of God or that insane as a Jewish crackpot? - - - Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

Why is there Something Rather than Nothing

The 20th Century German existentialist philosopher has written that the most profound question is metaphysics is, “Why is there something, rather than nothing?” --- Martin Heidegger... For my part, I ask a deeper question: Since each unfolding something contains the seeds of its own destruction, and the embryo of the new something will replace it - why not, to begin with, just leave nothing alone as nothing does nobody any harm?
