Thoughtful Psychologists

Psychologists tell us that approximately 10,000 thoughts go through our minds each day. I am quite fortunate. I am able to jot down on paper one or two of my l0,000 thoughts going through my mind each day; especially those thoughts that should provoke the thought of others. Poch Suzara

SILLY OPINION

Opinion is the only thing known to science that can be created out of nothing.

Compared to facts, however, an opinion is worthless. As the famous American thinker Clint Eastwood, said: “Opinions are like assholes; every one has got one.”

We are told that one has a right to his or to her own opinion. This is not true. One does not have the right at all. You only have the right to an opinion on anything if you have thoroughly studied all aspects, indeed, every facet, of the issue in question. In fact, as soon as you are thoroughly familiar with the issue in question, then you are entitled to your own honest opinion. Otherwise, if you know absolutely nothing about the issue in question, your opinion on the issue in question will also be a nothing. Poch Suzara.

Free Will

“For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself. For whether we live, we live unto the Lord: whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord’s. Romans 14:7-8
Do you bible scholars now believe that even according to the bible there is no such thing as free will? Poch Suzara

So How come

So how come 3 Billion Asians – Chinese, Indonesians, Cambodians, Vietnamese, Thais, Malaysians, Japanese, Laotians, etc, never heard of Jesus – the Savior of the world? If they did, how come Jesus never converted them into becoming a Christians? What happened to the power of God to spread the Word of God? Only the spiritually poor Filipinos living in morally backward Philippines heard the Word and got to become Christians since the 16th century.
1 Cor. 4:20 says: "for the kingdom of God is not in word but in power." The superstitious primitive who wrote those words must have been a real primitive.
Now, where in the bible, a book written by inspired Jewish authors of God, is the good word for the Filipino? Surely during biblical times, we were already existing on these “pearl of Orient” before Christianity arrived to transform it into Islas de bobos and ladrones and the “Payatas of the Orient.” Poch Suzara

Findeth a Wife

The bible says: “Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing.” Prov. 18:22
Well, what happened to Mary - the wife of God – who had begotten the Son of God Jesus? Of course,God never married her! Mary was not good enough.
And to think that the bible clearly states: “Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.” Eph. 5:5. Well, take a good look at most of the sinners and criminals described in the bible. They are not welcome in the kingdom of God. Poch Suzara

Melchisedec

“For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high, … without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.” Hebrews 7:7
Don’t any of you bible readers ever wonder where on earth is Melchisedec? How come he is always hiding away from the troubles of mankind? Just like a God who is also always omni-absent. We could learn a lot from Melchisedec’s vast and variegated experiences in life in this world. As one lively bible character mentioned in the Old and in the New Testament, he could surely, for example, reveal to us the Revealed Truth! Poch Suzara

Think Positive

"Think positive" is a dramatic redundancy. Just think. It is already positive enough. Poch Suzara

Truth

If you wish to be on the path toward the truth, the best you must do first is to keep away from superstition otherwise disguised as organized religion. Religion did not invent the priest. The priest invented religion. The concept of God was concocted by the priests to explain those things nobody understands. Thus, our ignorance is religion. What we know is science. Poch Suzara

God is Supot

If God created men in his own image and likeness and we are born supot, then God must be supot too.
The priesthood industry got me circumcised. After which they eventually intimidated me to believe that God gifted me with a free will. What a bunch of biblical liars! To think my circumcision had nothing to do with a free choice whether I wanted the prepuce off my sex organ needlessly removed or not. My circumcision was part of the mind control business of the priesthood industry.Today they are all mad at me because they can no longer control my mind. Poch Suzara

Passion

I have this passion to be against religion. in every single chapter in the history of human stupidity there is religion always included. Consider too religion has always been at a war against other stupid religions.
The crowning achievements of the history of human stupidity thus far have been the building of a cathedral to please divinity. Indeed, a cathedral is nothing but a monument to human stupidity. Poch Suzara

The Great Flood

Among those men, women, and children who suffocated to death during the Great Flood were my own distant relatives. My own flesh and blood. And for this monstrous criminal act by God against them, I am suppose to love and worship and adore God who saved only Noah and his family onboard the Ark? I say BULLSHIT! I love my ancestors. None were guilty of the Original Sin. After all, none of my ancestors originated anything to begin with.
In the meantime, it must be another miracle: no one asked where all that water go after the Great Flood drowned all those relatives of mine? Poch Suzara

Jesus

Jesus came not to save the world, but save only a part of it – namely – the Jews, “the elect,” God’s “chosen people.” Hey you religious scholars, wake up!
That the Pinoys are now saved only because Jesus came to save the world some 2,000 years? How sick can we Pinoys get as the Sick Man of Asia? Poch Suzara

One Miracle Too Many

After Jesus raised the dead back to life, they all disappeared and no one has heard from them ever since. Jesus himself went into hiding after his own resurrection. Those 3 kids of the Fatima miracle also went into hiding after they claimed that Mary, the Mother of God, appeared to them.
Can any of you religious morons explain why the miracle performers play HIDE AND SEEK game after each performance? And how come so many other kinds of miracles have taken place when only one miracle is more than enough. The miracle, for example, of developing human minds and hearts! Poch Suzara

The religious Moron

He is one who is always trying to explain the unknown by referring to the unknowable. In the meantime, religion is, indeed, a force for good; unfortunately, good for nothing. I ask: what keeps the Philippines poor and backward? It must be the silly bible that teaches the Filipino to believe that to be poor and backward is really a kind of blessing from God. Poch Suzara

Silly Soul

For you to claim that I have a soul, and that it will happy or unhappy after I am dead is to pretend that I will still be able to think without my brains, to see without my eyes, to hear without my ears, to taste without my palate, to smell without my nose, and to feel without my hands and skin.
Really, if you wish to remain as a religious moron for the rest of your life, that’s your choice. But please exclude me out from your Christianity as inspired by biblical insanity. Poch Suzara

Silly and Petty

God angry at my thoughts to provoke your thoughts? WOW! It is just like the ocean angry at a drop of water; a star angry at a candle light; or the sun angry at a firefly. Is God really that silly and petty having time and energy to be angry at honest-to-goodness atheists like me? Poch Suzara

The Bible

The bible is the most unholy book in existence. It thinks for you instead of encouraging you to think for yourself – the very foundation for the attainment of self-respect and human dignity.
Indeed, the bible is all about the Jews, of the Jews, by the Jews, and for the Jews. The Pinoys, however, have been taught to believe that they are also part of the Jewish troubles and problems. It is really all about a religious garbage. For my part, as a Pinoy, on my death-bed one day, I will have 3 last words to utter: Fuck the bible! Poch Suzara

Love and Thought

Love is nothing compared to the power of thought; for, without thought, there is no power of love. Poch Suzara

Happy Birthday Jose Rizal

Dr. Jose Rizal, HAPPY BIRTHDAY – 6/19/2008

I should wish to report to you again this year more of the same I reported to you in spirit during the previous years. Your enemies – those in authority who had you arrested, jailed, and executed – are still here. They are still much in authority over the minds and hearts of our people. Your enemies are still in authority in control of most of our schools, colleges, and universities. They still basically teach the nation’s youth how to pray - how solve real problems by reaching out to fantasy solutions. It is of course the worst possible training any youth can have for their outreach to emotional growth and intellectual maturity. Worse yet, the nation’s youth are still impressed upon to believe that after birth – there is a better foreign country to go to; like after death – there is a better next world to go to.

Oh yes Sir, we continue to be the same victims of indoctrination, not the masters of education. We are still into the religious way of believing than we should already be into the scientific way of thinking. Indeed, we continue to ignore science to help us develop as a nation of dignified men and self-respecting women, and not as a herd of fanatical bigots who would solve the problems of evil with more evils. Such as, in the end, no matter what – with the power of prayer to a supreme power somewhere out there – such power will always provide for us down here.


Sir, even more painful to admit, millions of Filipinos continue to contribute daily to keeping the Philippines poor and backward. We continue to add on to our already needless population growth. The religious morons of our sick society continue to insist that there is no such thing as overpopulation problem today in the Philippines. They still insist that our society has not surpassed the economic basis for providing Filipinos with adequate food, housing, and schooling. That there is still plenty in the Philippines even for a population of 180 million Filipinos. And so, an average of 3 babies are born every minute of the day or 1.8 million babies born yearly in the Philippines. When they grow up, such babies are also taught in school to refer to the same bible for moral growth and spiritual development. Indeed, the same bible that teaches us to love not this world, neither the things that are in this world; and to take no thought for tomorrow for tomorrow will take care of itself. In the meantime, life in general in the Philippines can only be characterized as the daily competition to be the criminal rather than be the victim of the criminals.

Sir, again this year, as it was during the previous years, the politicians in government serve our country not by telling the bitter truth, but by telling sweet lies. The sweeter the lies, the sweeter their promotion in government office. Ours continue to be a government of the corrupt, by the corrupt, and for the corrupt.

To think that the worst kind of poverty is the poverty of the mind. Such horrors come from our schools, colleges, and universities. Take a serious look at the millions of our college educated men and women all working not for our country’s growth and development, but employed in foreign countries enjoying the best of wealth. The kind of wealth that comes from science which is all about the courage to change and to improve under a self-correcting enterprise.

Sir, you were certainly a real hero during your century. Today, in our own century, instead of heroes, what we have in our God-fearing country are God-fearing politicians indoctrinated to embrace blind faith, not to make use of the power of knowledge and its diffusion. Our politicians would readily pray to divinity - to remedy the traditional ills of our sick society. Nobody seems to pay any serious attention to remedy our rotten to the core system of education - the root cause of our stagnation as a nation bereft of any sense of direction.


Yours sincerely,

The Frightened Atheists

I envy the gays and the lesbians. Decades ago, they were laughed at, threatened, insulted, maltreated, ostracized, frightened, beaten, tortured, lynched, burned, and hanged. But they stood their ground to vigorously fight hatred and bigotry. Today, the gays and lesbians are the accepted parts of mainstream society. They are in government as politicians, in church as priests and nuns, in trade and commerce as businessmen and businesswomen, in schools, colleges, and universities as teachers and professors, creative artist in the advertising industry, actors and actresses in the film industry, golly they are even loved moms and respected dads raising decent children.

Except the frightened atheists. We are still behaving like a bunch of intimidated freaks. Instead of evolving publicly; we would rather be recoiling privately. We are still afraid to expose the power of knowledge that got us to be atheists to begin with. We are still hiding inside the dark closet. For Christ’s sake, there are even existing atheist today who are famous authors, lawyers, educators, philosophers, and scientists but they are among the first idiots to intimidate fellow atheist not to identify our true identity in public as “atheist.” After all, they insists: the word “atheist” connotes something of a criminal, if not some kind of an animal. In this 21st century, we atheists are left out like a bunch of crippled idiots in a quagmire stuck away from the decent struggle to promote tolerance for our rights to openly exist too. We continue to be frightened hiding under the pressure from those who enjoy exalting fear and fanaticism for and in this world that forever needs feeding. Poch Suzara

Phony Atheists

As a matter of historical fact there are billions of phony atheists in this world than there are genuine atheists.
The Christians are atheists according to the Muslims because the Christians do not believe in Allah.
The Muslims are atheists according to the Christians because the Muslims do not believe in God.
Indeed, a billion Muslims and a billion Christians only believe in the existence of their own respective unique god.
We, the real atheists, have no belief system in any kind of God. We are neither biblical nor Koranic or even Talmudic. We are ethical. We are neither vicious nor malicious. Atheists do not hate and kill other atheists in foxholes. In fact, there are no atheists in foxholes. Poch Suzara

Charitable Organizations

Notice anything peculiar about charitable organizations helping the poor? None of them would encourage countries, for example like the Philippines, to seriously practice family planning and birth control measures to help curtail the arrival of poor children into our already very sick society. After all poverty comes from the population growth, and the more the population grows the business is more profitable for the charitable organizations. An average of three babies are born every minute of the day and night in the Philippines. That’s 1.8 million babies a year. Or 18 million babies in 10 years. Indeed, in the year 2020, the Philippine population will have reached between 140 million Filipinos. What a windfall for the charitable businesses!
One such charitable organization is the World Mission. Golly, they are so wealthy now in that they can even afford to publish a prestigious first-class magazine to distribute to all potential charity donors throughout the world. Indeed, charitable organizations make certain that the war against poverty is never won. That it should never be finalized and accomplished. The show must go on! In the name of the Lord Jesus - It is big business. Poch Suzara

St. Paul

In spite of all the “trials, hardships, afflictions, floggings, imprisonment, riots, fatigue, sleepness nights and days of hunger, ( 2 Cor. 6:4-5 ) he endured, the Apostle never shrank from his missionary passion. He wrote: “ I consider life of no importance to me, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to bear witness to the Gospel of God’s grace.” Acts 20:24.
I ask: Where precisely in hell were the type of men like St. Paul to be found among the cruel Spanish friars. Specially like those who arrived in the 16th century to brutally conquer the Philippines with the greatest of all evil otherwise more known as Christianity? Golly, these religious morons even had our Jose Rizal executed for exposing the true nature of the existence of the Catholic Church in the Philippines. Poch Suzara

Alien Life

To believe that the universe may harbor aliens living in other planets is not an important issue. The real issue is: If those alien started out also like Adam and Eve and who were guilty of the original sin that got our emotionally insecure creator all riled up over nothing? Poch Suzara

Only God

“Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.” Acts 5:29.
This is all fine and great and dandy. But where is God? How do we obey God when he is never found anywhere? Why is God never directly involved with our troubles and problems? God is never omni-present; in fact, only always omni-absent. How does one obey the existence of a nothing in fantasy? Isn’t it more sensible to obey the existence of a something in reality? Gee God, why are you such a big show off? A supernatural I-don’t-give-a-damn invisible bully?
Fearless men have only to think; frightened children have only to worship. Poch Suzara

The State of Our World

Look at the mess in our world so full of fear and hate and pain and suffering and violence. Only because millions upon millions of victims still believe as true what’s written in the stupid bible, or what’s written in the stupid Koran, or what’s written in the stupid Talmud!
In the meantime, divinity in this people is so overwhelming; but humanity in them can only be described as the lowest form of insanity.
Our world have yet to progress not only locally, but especially globally. And progress can only mean the progress of ideas not for the sake of a belligerent divinity, but only for intelligent humanity. Poch Suzara

Religious Morons

There are so many kinds of religious morons. My favorite is the one who proudly reveals his contempt for man’s ability to think.
There are also those who did not make wrong decisions, but that indecision has taken over their empty, if not misguided, rudderless - lives. Indeed, they know not even whether they are coming or going. They have allowed one kind of fear to dominate their lives, and so all other kinds of fears dominate them we well. Poch Suzara

Imagine

Imagine a God who loves you much only because you fear him much. What could be more silly and insane? It is incredible to believe that a creator, able to create billions of galaxies but nevertheless enjoys fear from the religious morons on this speck of dust called earth. As if the creator were that emotionally insecure? At any rate, it must be a wonderful feeling to fear God. After all, fear is most flattering to God. Fear inspires God to forgive our sins and crimes and indeed forgive our stupidity especially the kind that promotes social and political insanity. Poch Suzara

Morally Bankrupt Pinoys

Mary was the Jewish mother of God. Jesus was the Jewish son of God. All the apostles of Jesus were Jewish apostles. God himself was a Jewish God.
It is, in this way, that it is not incredible to believe that millions of Pinoys contribute daily to continue moving the Philippines backward by referring to their stupid bible as their guidance.
In the meantime, we Pinoys are so entrenched in moral bankruptcy in that we could not even pride ourselves with inventing our own unique family of Asiatic Gods. Hoy! Gising na! Poch Suzara

Biblical Insanity

Millions of readers do not agree with each other as to what’s written in the bible. How could they? The inspired bible authors themselves do not agree with each other. I say, it is time to throw your bible out the window.
No doubt, it is true, there is just about something in the bible for everybody; except the Revealed Truth. It has not yet been revealed to anybody.
In the meantime, it is hard to believe that a creator of the billions of galaxies comprising trillions of stars could inspire sick authors to write the sick bible for the beings called man living in this speck of dust called earth! Poch Suzara

Cain and Abel

God was nowhere to be found to assist Adam Eve to raise and educate Cain and Abel to grow up like decent men and be creative and independent as individuals. After all, Cain and Abel were the first grandsons of God. Too bad God had to be attending to more important matters. He was too busy as a divinity screwing around with deviltry. To think Cain murdered his only brother Abel. The crime was caused by deviltry as inspired by divinity. What kind of holy hogwash is genesis all about as a basis for religiosity? Poch Suzara

Losers, Failures, and Fools

Jesus declared that the first will be the last, that the weak will be the strong, and that the fools will be the wise.
Jesus was not a friend of the victor, strong, or the wise. On the contrary, Jesus was the prophet of the losers, failures, and the fools. Is it any wonder that Jesus got crucified on the cross by the losers, failures, and fools - all created in the image and likeness of God! Poch Suzara

The Study of Nothing

It is ironic that theology has always been the study of nothing. The most that the theologians have accomplished was to give birth to atheism. Indeed, we atheists do not and can not believe, love, worship, or adore the existence of nothing.
But credit must be due the theologians. Their grand policy is to blow hot and to blow cold, to afflict and to console, to frighten and to reassure. Everybody’s impressed; except the atheists. We think the theologians could have lived a more joyful life had they been, instead, circus clowns. Poch Suzara

The Greatest Discovery

What changed our world from ancient to a modern one was due to the greatest discovery of all time: human beings can alter their lives by altering their childish attitudes and by discarding their infantile beliefs.
In the meantime, it is the peculiarity of the mediocres and the Philistines to prefer the unknown, the fabulous, the wonderful, the incredible, even the terrible to that which is clear, simple, honest, and true. Poch Suzara

More Impressive

It would be more impressive if we could be honest enough to admit that our beliefs have little to do with reason, but more on faith which is the enemy of reason. Indeed, reason and faith are opposites, two mutually exclusive terms: there is no reconciliation or common ground between them. Faith is belief without, or in spite of, reason. Thus, Christian faith is not only faith beyond reason but must also be against reason.
In the meantime, reason is not one tool you can choose to grab from a tool box. Reason is the entire tool box itself. Poch Suzara

Wars

Wars have mostly been about the rich getting richer, and to get the poor poorer. Among the rich are the religious organizations. They thrive on hate and poverty and violence for the glory of God in heaven or for the glory of Allah in paradise or for the greedy and insane munition makers of America fully supported and endorsed by an insane government - the US government. Poch Suzara

Matthew

“Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.” Matt. 10:30
Matthew could have made more sense had he been a circus clown and not a bible writer. It is laughable to believe that a God inspired Matthew to write this kind of spiritual hogwash. Golly, we live on a speck of dust called earth lost in the immensity of space and time. Human life is but a split second long, a wink of an eye, a flash in the pan compared to the life of the universe. But, according to Matthew, the Lord seems to welcome his own anxiety as long human stupidity will last as long as infinity? Poch Suzara

Conscious Fear

In this country, as soon as you are born, the elderly around you, especially the priesthood industry, immediately take advantage of your unconscious fear. They indoctrinate you to learn to be conscious of fear for the rest of your life. Thus, from birth to death, we experience mostly the fear of life itself. It is, in this way, that we would sooner take the cowardly road to follow the insanity of others by neglecting our own courageous path towards the achievement of our own sense of humanity. Poch Suzara

Adolf Hitler

Hitler was an insane victim of his own heroes – such heroes like the German philosopher Nietzsche who wrote about the super race of men to rule the world.
In the world of philosophy, Nietzsche was a disgrace, not a grace. He believed not in world peace through love, but in world war through hate. Too bad war has never, as yet, solved anything except the motivation for the declaration of a next war.
If you want peace, prepare for war? On the contrary, if you want peace, prepare for peace! Poch Suzara

As an Atheist

As an atheist I have no interest in the system of reward or punishment. I am happy enough living my life without any sense of heaven as a place of reward or hell as a place of punishment. My sense of morality has nothing to do with pleasing divine grace. I am more interested with the growth and maturity via common decency of the human race. Poch Suzara

Happiness

If happiness depends upon the power of thought, then I dare say that most people suffer from unhappiness. Especially as they are consistently thoughtless, if not perpetually mindless, not to mention perennially heartless. Poch Suzara

Jesus in Our Hearts

In grade school, high school, and in college at De la Salle University nothing was put into our hearts except the love for Jesus who preached: - “love not this world, neither the things that are in the world.” It explains why we do not love our country, and why, indeed, we are a nation of failures and losers still believing and waiting for the Second Coming of the Lord. Poch Suzara

Poor Filipino People

How could we Filipinos ever mature as a people and develop as a nation when we have been taught to believe that there is a better country to go to after birth, and that there is a better world to come after death? Indeed, what can be expected of a people enjoying only the freedom of Christianity, by Christianity, and for Christianity? Poch Suzara

Holy Books

One may know all the messages written in the bible, or the Quran, or in the Talmud, but continue to remain shamelessly ignorant of science and the scientific way of thinking. After all, what exactly do sacred writings have anything to do with the growth and maturity of the human mind and heart that’s so much needed to straighten the mess out of this God-forsaken world due to stupid religion? Poch Suzara

I love Bertrand Russell

I love Bertrand Russell not for turning mathematics upside-down and logic inside-out, but for never threatening me with punishment in hell-fire if I did not agree with any of his writings. In fact, Russell encouraged me to disagree with him and to think for myself; especially in the task of seeking the truth as no one, as Russell himself admitted, has as yet found the truth.
Russell wrote: All human knowledge is uncertain, inexact, and partial. I ask Russellian philosophers: what’s so uncertain, inexact, and partial about the truth that we are all born troubled, sick, and dying? Indeed, there is no such thing as health. There has never been any one who lived anywhere on this planet who enjoyed lasting health! Poch Suzara

Our Troubled Selves

There is the good side and the bad side in everything; except in religion - there is only the bad side. Religion damages the minds and hearts of children to grow up with so much fear and deep in ignorance to be unable to help remedy the world so full of hatred that grows out of fear.
Consider this painful fact: whether rich or poor, each and every one of us are born troubled. Indeed, as soon as we are born, we begin to die. There is no such thing as health. Health is a myth. In the meantime, if religion were to have its good side, it must be in the business of alleviating these horrors not with faith in human stupidity, but simply by facing and changing reality. After all, reality is malleable; not inscrutable. The science of medicine in this respect has achieved wonders! Poch Suzara

Believe It or Not

If you wish to set up a Foundation and have it registered with the government office in the Philippines known as THE SECURITY AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, you must first submit a letter of appointment from any of Catholic Bishops of the Philippines. The Foundation must start with a basic worth of ONE MILLION PESOS.
For my part, I do not believe it. What I do believe, however, is that there is no such creature called the Separation between Church and State in the Philippines. In fact, both the Church and State have been having an illicit affair together and they have begotten millions of poor and bastard children. They are known as the Filipino people – the Sick Man of Asia. Poch Suzara

Jesus, the Pinoy

Jesus was crucified dead on the cross to destroy the devil. The devil, however, is still alive and doing actively well. Jesus must have been a Pinoy. Puro drama.
In the meantime, it is incredible to believe how millions of Pinoys never find it strange that in order to be a friend of God we must first declare ourselves as an enemy of fellow-Filipinos and that we must hate to work for the welfare of our own country. Poch Suzara
