The Tyranny of Religion
Are you
concerned when Christians claim
That only they
have seen the light?
Or Moslems
gesture with disdain
At infidels
they think not right?
Their
religious dogma roughly based,
On what
unnamed scribes claimed once took place.
When holy men
with their empty prayers,
Look down upon
the one who dares.
To doubt the
truth of ancient fable,
Of Mecca,
Bethlehem or Babel.
Charged with
heresy without reprieve,
If you should
spurn or disbelieve.
The many
faiths that perpetuate,
Between them
mutual distrust and hate,
That leads to
conflict in God's name,
Condoned by
clerics who bear no blame.
Tho' one truth
they cannot ignore,
Humanists have
never been to war!
If you hold
dear your fellow man,
Not caring if
he’s black, white or tan.
If you can
distinguish right from wrong,
Without the
aid of psalm or song,
And don't need
a church to give its views,
On which is
the right path you should choose;
Then cast
aside their idle chatter,
Their
deceptive tongues do not matter,
For 'heaven
and hell' is a cunning plan,
A massive con
to frighten man!

WALK IN FREEDOM
Are you
dismayed at all who state
That they
alone know best?
Skeptics,
atheists and humanists,
Religions and
the rest?
From all
around come declarations
"I've got the
truth," "I've seen the light;"
New Agers,
cults and politicians,
All babbling
that they're right.
Moved by
"right" they strive, debate
Oppress and
lie and fornicate;
Exploit,
confound and steal and hurt,
Treat other
people just like dirt.
The Bible
teaches all are wrong
Pathetic,
helpless, weak, not strong;
Deceived by
"demons" and vain desire,
Heading for
the punishment called "eternal fire".
The Bible also
explains salvation
Promotes
morals, prosperity, peace and elation;
It's confirmed
by science in hundreds of points,
Consistent and
integrated like bones and joints.
Give the boot,
then, to misleading babble
Of atheists
and cults and various rabble;
And walk in
biblical liberty,
Confirmed by
science, and so be free!
