Marocharim is a 21-year-old college senior from the University of the Philippines Baguio, majoring in Social Anthropology and has a minor in Political Science. He lives with his parents, his brother and his sister in Baguio City - having been born and raised there all his life. He is the author of three book-versions of The Marocharim Experiment.

Most of his time is spent at school, where he can be found in the UP Baguio Library reading or scribbling notes, and sometimes hanging out with his friends or by himself in the kiosks, or the main lobby. During his spare time, he continues writing. When not in school he hangs out with his friends, or takes long walks around Baguio City to, as he puts it, "get lost."

Marocharim suffers from a nervous condition that has left him suffering constant migraines, nausea, and attacked his vision and sensory perceptions in his left-side extremities. While aware of his condition, this does not stop him from vice and his love for writing, reading and learning. He is also active in various cause-oriented groups and freelance writing for some local newspapers.

Opium

< hmmm... >

   Today found me in the school library researching everything I can about my least favorite topic to rant or rave about: religion.  On Wednesday, our class will hold a debate on religion.  First, whether religion is an instrument of change or of oppression.  Second, whether the world needs religion or not.

   Not that I'm a hardline Marxist, but I subscribe to Karl Marx's opinion of religion in "Toward a Contribution to Hegel's Philosophy of Right:" religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, the spirit of an unspiritual situation, the opium of the people, yadda yadda yadda.

   The problem about debating about religion, in my view, is that it all basically boils down to doctrine and not reason.  Which is why I am an avid fan of "Ang Tamang Daan," broadcasted by Net 25 (which is owned by Iglesia Ni Cristo), and I just love it when they use the glass-breaking effects whenever Eliseo Soriano, the leader of the religious sect Ang Dating Daan, speaks out.  Not that I have anything against both sects, but it's just funny how people can debate over interpretations of a single Bible.

   You might be asking, "Hey, Marocharim, aren't you an atheist?"  True: while I write down "Roman Catholic" on forms whenever required, the truth is I don't participate in organized religion.  The falling-out that I have had with religion results from a disillusionment in a religion that believes in many different Christs.
