AN UNHOLY MESS

AN UNHOLY MESS

Through ignorance and machismo
They delete themselves from posterity
The creed of embracing all that they expound
Forgotten when selecting the gods 
That inhabit their one sided hierarchy

They court and woo controversy
Discriminating on a grand scale
The other half of humanity
Has only  a reproductive use
The Y chromosome seemingly
 Of more spiritual worth
 
A selfish message they send 
To future generations
Today after all will be tomorrows past 
The hard fought for longevity of the church
 Does seem in peril  

Blocking female advancement
Is a wanton disregard for the maker
Who created all in his image
 And who blesses us all
From on high


Bickering and unholy infighting 
Is to some no way to run a faith 
A stain on a way of life 
That raises a soul up high
 
Flambolic Postulations and rascal procrastinations
Have blighted the authority of the church
A reverse stigmata that may not be easily healed
The soul after all has no gender 

Side-lined for their femininity
Traduced for being as god created 
Women are second class in a world
Where acceptance of the divine 
Should outweigh gender dog fighting

A shaky foundation is today’s Christian ethos 
The lack of understanding and 
The ability to forgive 
Has reduced respect for a beacon of society 
A grievous long lasting irrevocable manoeuvre

The male domination of the soul
Is but a wilful audacious folly 
Humanity will not exist 
Without the X and Y chromosomes 

To look at the future of the church
Is to gaze into a cloudy ball
The smoke of destruction evident to all about
Except the Don Quixote who stubbornly fight
Bolstered by their own ill will

The unity of the church
Is paramount for its survival
The acceptance of those who believe 
Irrespective of their genes will extend 
The work on earth of Christ above 

Let us worship and serve god as one
