Haven’t we already discovered

Corruptness has been chartered?

It’s in the religious colonies

Them and they’re bloody beauties

They pray to their wood

And say they only pray for good

They discovered His Son

Then killed him in his last omen

They killed Him on the cross

And now view Him as their loss

As though He meant nothing

Now He’s created damning

The story has been rewritten

Only to make it less fiction

There are villains, Gods, and Angels

This story can all be heard in the Bible

Our faiths are given to the God of which we create each year

Because everyday He promises us we will be taken away from here

Do they pray for their health?

Or only their wealth?

We are told not to fear Him

This man who gave us the mortal whim

The one who gave us disease and death

So we should not ever fear his breath

Has He ever been seen?

God, He must be keen

To avoid our research

Though allow the church

Soon they shall fail

The religion so pale

And they’ll bring us into it

The ones with the most wit

Because I don’t believe we’ve ever caused commotion

We would only seem not chosen

We’ve never caused a war

For what we do not believe there are

But of course, they like scapegoats

To only win their votes

We will only know

And announce, “I told you so”

We do not lie to children

We take no such action

We watch the world as it spins

Believing no one wins

Because to us there is no God

Yes, we will seem very broad

But we have no need to believe in such lies

Because truly there is no ending surprise

Posted by Egoist 2008-01-23 13:10:25 Sorry I'm sorry if I've offended anyone religious out of writing this. This would seem extremely over the edge, but I don't hate religious people, nor do I dislike them. It's just not me, but please don't be harsh on commenting, unless you feel you have to. This sort of suggests the eyes through a taunted atheist. + Report this comment
Posted by r.e.potter 2008-01-23 13:41:06 interesting True, its hard to believe in things that you have never seen..such as UFO's for example. But with all the evil and hatred in the world such as child killers, gangwars, rapist, ect...and just all around assholes, you can only hope there's a hell. + Report this comment
Posted by Egoist 2008-01-23 15:33:28 Too good Your comment really made me laugh, I was thinking the first person to comment on this would be someone who's going to bomb the crap out of it. I really like your idea, out of all the horrid people this world has, I would hope there would be a Hell. Thanks once more. + Report this comment
Posted by Dirkin 2008-01-23 16:43:59 .... I believe in God but I'm not in any way religious, I just do my own thing. I am not offended by this, because to me theyre fair enough questions raised. But I've always thought, when people say how can God let this or that happen, well, how can YOU let that happen? A good thought provoking poem + Report this comment

Posted by Pez 2008-02-11 14:22:26 I also... firmly believe in God, so I can't relate too much to your poem. But no one should be offended, we're all entitled to our own opinion; God gave us something great: free will... oh, wait, I don't want to instill my beliefs, now do I? heh. There are some excerpts that I can sort of agree with though... because you see, even though I believe in God, I rely highly on good reasoning... I don't want to go into something blindfolded. Like their mindless idol worshiping. Their hypocrisy... and when I say they, I think you know who I'm making reference to. Though according to the Bible, Jesus did not die on a 'cross', so I was surprised you used that in your poem... Anyway, everything seems in place, grammatically speaking... so good job. Oi, I rambled. + Report this comment
Posted by Egoist 2008-02-22 07:48:17 .... No, you didn't ramble. I thought He died on the cross...? Hmm, I thought when He was nailed to it, then left there for oh-so many days, then stabbed and taken down, He died on the cross...Where did He die? I didn't know I had this wrong...sorry. I know He had risen from the dead, then descended to Heaven as well...Thanks for getting that across, I got to look into it more. + Report this comment
Posted by Pez 2008-02-22 10:18:11 .... Ya, most people think it was on a 'cross,' but he really died on a large wooden post; not a 't-shaped' thing... Most people also think he was nailed through the hands, but he was really nailed through a little above the wrists... The rest you have pretty much down. It's a shame so many people have some image of it in their homes or around their necks... + Report this comment
