There Is Nothing Definite as Everything is Tentative in Science

Truth in science can be defined as the working hypothesis best suited to open the way to the next better one. - - - Konrad Lorenz . . Indeed, Carl Sagan, put it this way: "The sacred truth of science is that there are no sacred truths."

Isn't It Time for Us Filipinos to Wake Up

Let your life tell the story of Christ's love and mercy to the world around you. . . Phil Star, Aug. 25, 2015 . . . Ever since Christianity arrived in the 16th century to conquer the Philippines, we Filipinos have done virtually nothing but pray daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly for Christ's love and mercy. Today in this already 21st century, look at us Filipinos so poor and backward as a people, and so sick and corrupt and insane a nation. . . we are still stuck and praying harder daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly for Christ's love and mercy...

Lowly-Paid Employees as Teachers and Professors in the Philippines

My teachers in La Salle grade school and high school were not real teachers. They were lowly-paid employees of the Christians Brothers - the filthy-rich owners of De la Salle college. Indeed, like most schools, colleges, and universities own and operated by the catholic church... Education in our poor and backward country has nothing to do with acquiring knowledge and wisdom... It is mostly about learning how to be at home with faith in lies, deceptions, illusions, delusions, not to mention faith in human degradation; especially by ignoring the importance of the growth and development of civilization... I was so glad and happy that I got expelled out of La Salle high school. It was, in this way, that I managed, somehow, via self-education, to save not my sick soul; but to save instead my precious mind and heart to be useful in this world. Our world. . .

We Are A Nation of 5th graders

What is the current state of Philippine education? . . . “A nation of ‘fifth graders,’” the late Dr. Josefina R. Cortes, former dean of University of the East College of Education, said of our country that has long suffered from poor learning outcomes. . . Evidence of this is aplenty: Please see Philippine Daily Inquirer, Aug. 24, 2015. . . All these form part of the apoy sa ilalim and apoy sa ibabaw solutions that will help this country leapfrog from being a nation of fifth graders to a country of achievers and high-skilled professionals in the foreseeable future. . . . (Ricardo Ma. Duran Nolasco, PhD., is a faculty member of the Department of Linguistics of the University of the Philippines in Diliman, Quezon City.). . . For my part, as a high school expelled student of some 65 years ago, I said it before, I say it again: our sick system of education does not only reflect who are as a sick people, but also what we are as a sick nation. In this already 21st century, we are the only people in all of Asia who are still hoping, waiting, and praying for a Savior to save us from the horrors of our own sick values and sick beliefs; also to save us away from daily graft and corruption - while we are proud of our sick population explosion as inspired via our rejection of civilization!

Bertrand Russell is my Maker

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#

WE NEED MORE HOUSING TENEMENTS THAN CHURCHES AND CATHEDRALS

An Atheist believes that a hospital should be built instead of a church. An atheist believes that deed must be done instead of prayer said. An atheist strives for involvement in life and not escape into death. He wants disease conquered, poverty vanished, war eliminated. - - - Madalyn Murray O'Hair. . . In the Philippines, an atheist like me, would like to see more HOUSING TENEMENTS creatively established around the country than see more churches and cathedrals established in the already God-forsaken, poor, and backward country. - - - In fact, I would like to see such HOUSES OF GOD converted to HOUSING facilities for the millions of poor Filipinos are who homeless living in the streets of our major cities... Indeed, transform those churches and cathodrals - monuments to human stupidity into monuments to human sanity. . .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#

I love Thinking. I hate Believing

"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. Ingersoll- - - Well, what is even more absurd is that God gifted you with a free will to do just that... 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. Free will has only to do with the growth and development of one's insanity... Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#

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. We are made stupid via a stupid system of education! Look at us Filipinos as a people in this day and age, in this already 21st century: we only know how to love God up there by hating one another and by hating our own country down here!...

Jesus Christ our savior and Jose Rizal out national hero

"Only Jesus can fill us with a sense of belonging like we've never known before." ... Philippine Star, Aug.8, 2015. . . Wow, you editors of Philippine Star, do you really know what you are talking about? Listen to Jesus in the so-called Holy Bible: "IF ANY MAN COME TO ME AND HATE NOT HIS FATHER AND MOTHER, WIFE AND CHILDREN, BROTHERS AND SISTERS, AND YE, HIS OWN LIFE ALSO, HE CANNOT BE MY DISCIPLE." Luke 14:26... In our way of daily life in the Philippines, isn't enough that we Filipinos, historically, all love Jesus up there by hating each other down here? What more is there to know about Jesus who, crucified on the cross, cried out loud: 'MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN ME?" Matt. 27:46 . . .

 For my part, as a Filipino atheist, I would rather fill my sense of belonging to my country together with what our greatest hero - Dr. Jose Rizal - had the greatest hope for me as a Filipino: “I would like the Filipinos to be brilliant, enlightened, intelligent, and progressive.” . . .Poch Suzara Twitter# Facebook# Google#
