Imagine a world without #religion, nothing to live nor die for...

The irony of atheism becoming a religion on its own, not believing that a God exists is as man-made as believing that God exists..whether there's one or multiple ones out there. If there's one thing I do want, perhaps it is the abolishing of all religions, let's see if this world would be a better place. Seriously, so many atrocities, so many sufferings have been brought into in the name of "whoever they worship on" like wow, why would this be the beacon of so-called good? I think people have forgotten that even Christianity that prevails in this country has been forced upon us when in the beginning none of our ancestors ever knew about the man that was crucified for our so-called "sins". Our ancestors worshipped nature, well that's what my history books told me. If that is inaccurate feel free to correct me.

Anyway, it's even more ironic that atheists have a so-called "church", here I thought that being a non-believer is a personal thing and not a group way of thinking. What's next? Agnostics will have a congregation too?

With all due respect to the believers, believe what you may and what you wish but don't try to shove it in our throats. If we're interested, If I'm interested then I will sign up for it myself. But since I'm not, please leave me alone. With all due respect to the non-believers, if you don't believe what those believers think, you may do so. But there's no need to attack them for their beliefs, leave them alone and let them be. It all comes down to respecting one another with regards to that. Religion as well as politics is a divisive topic..

Last thing I want to say is, imagine this. If the Gods of different religions come together, they will most likely understand each other unlike their mortal followers who with their misguided sense of salvation preach the contradictions of what their true teaching is all about which is sad. Honestly, you don't need to be religious or even a religion to do good things to one another. It doesn't give you extra brownie points when you're too old to live.

    May I ask u a question pls? So what atheist groups are serving the poorest of the poor? I have been the places where children are starving and thrown away. Who takes care of them Who feeds them? Who saves their lives, treating them with love? It isn't atheists. Who steals their supplies--charitable shipments sent for the poor? Atheistic politicians who hold the shipments in loading docs so that they can rummage through it and steal all of the good stuff for themselves. By the time missionaries get to it, its full of rats. There are so many places of the world that, if there were no Christians, more people would be dead, discarded, and without hope. There are many places of the world where if there were no Christians--very few truly good things would be happening. Think about all of the Christian charities that do great work in some of the most desolate and impoverished areas of the world...peace be with u

Leni Robredo has become a sad mechanical puppet and an embarrassment to Filipinos

By -

Guess who has taken over Leila de Lima’s place on the anti-Duterte international speaking circuit? Watch this video that Leni Robredo made for an international NGO event in Vienna tomorrow. Warning: this will REALLY make your blood boil. If you have vertigo, sit down and take a deep breath before watching. You know what’s really sickening about this video? It’s not even the lies and exaggerations that Robredo is saying about what’s going on in the Philippines and how Pinoys feel about it (as if she’s in any position to speak for the Filipino people, who mostly hate her guts). It’s the hollowness and emptiness of the way she mechanically reads from a script that obviously someone else wrote. She’s making huge claims about thousands of people being summarily killed by police, but her eyes and voice are absolutely empty of emotion or conviction. She’s just a puppet playing a role, who doesn’t even understand what she’s doing or saying, she’s just mindlessly following her owner’

Victims of drug-crazed addicts don't get 'trending' hashtags like #JusticeForKian

For the past few days I was doing research on a few things like I said. A new FB friend sent me a message telling me about a Dad in Dumaguete who lost his only daughter to a drug crazed addict who used 7 knives to stab her and a friend in Siquijor last April. I did the research, read up on everything and his recent "upheavals". I need not tell you all that I have no words to fully express how deeply this affects me because I am a single mom with a daughter too. His only daughter was even 3 - 4 months pregnant when she and her friend was mercilessly stabbed to death so many times by a drug addict. Nino Pinero is a professor in Siliman University. He is a coach. Given what I have read about this gentleman, he is a very compassionate man, a loving father and being a coach to youngsters - deeply loved by his students. And I would like to give him his privacy in as much as I can. 100% respect for this man. His recent "upheavals" came with the pronouncements

An open letter to CNN on their reporting on the #YolandaPH disaster in the Philippines

By -

This "open letter" was found making the rounds on social media: * * * Dear Sirs: I just wanted to make some comments on the reporting of the CNN International crew here in Manila, regarding the relief efforts for the victims of super-typhoon Haiyan (which we locally call typhoon Yolanda). First, full disclosure: I am a retired Filipino executive and computer person. I was born in the Philippines and spent all my life here (save for some very short overseas stints connected with my career). I have worked with a large local Philippine utility, started up several entrepreneurial offshore software service companies (when outsourcing was not yet in vogue), and also served as the Philippine country head for a multi-billion dollar Japanese computer company. This diverse work background allows me to always see both the local and global point of view, and to see things from the very different standpoints of a third-world citizen, and a person familiar with first-world mind

Reporters Karen Lema and Manuel Mogato of @Reuters LIED about the Duterte "Hitler" quote

By -

The oh-so-noble journalists are at it again, this time, with Duterte’s Hitler comment. I am no Duterte fanatic. I criticize him more scathingly than anyone when his mouth is out of line. But this time, Duterte really didn’t say anything wrong. The real culprits behind the fuss over his Hitler comment are Karen Lema and Manuel Mogato, two Filipino reporters of the Reuters news agency, who wrote this article: “ Philippines’ Duterte likens himself to Hitler, wants to kill millions of drug addicts ”. Lema and Mogato are Filipinos. There’s no way they could have misunderstood what Duterte really meant in his speech. I watched the video and this is what the President said: “Hitler massacred 3 million Jews. There are 3 million drug addicts. I’d be happy to slaughter them. At least, if Germany had Hitler, the Philippines would have ….. my victims, all criminals, to finish a problem of my country, and save the next generation.” (See for yourself here . The Hitler part is at 14:40.
