Hyprocrisy

Hypocrisy We are punished and jailed when we do wrong We are warned of God’s wrath if we do something immoral We are told life after death can be brutal or rewarding We are threatened with Hell and rewarded with Paradise But We know about hell on earth We know about the abundance of wonderful feelings while we live But When we die does our pain from hell or our richness from joys come with us? After they die do we know if a cruel tyrant is punished Or a child-molester, or a drug dealer, or a murderer, or an abuser Are they made to feel the anguish and the terror they have inflicted? When soldiers are betrayed by their allies Are those so-called friends chastised after their death? When you believe your mentors Who tells you to kill the enemy of your faith And your rewards will be in Heaven And you perform the act of wilful murder Are you rewarded or punished in your after life? For thousands of years Humans have annihilation races for religious reason But Have we learned anything? We still go on doing the same thing thus proving that Punishment in the world of the after death does not exist Because we don’t believe in fiction We still have politicians who lie We still have soldiers who die But But humans can cry for a bird that is killed Or for a magnificent old tree that is lopped And then tolerate injustice and murder in the name of their cause Thank God We believe there is goodness in people If we don’t Then life is a joke A bad joke.
